Of course there are plenty of other problems as giving one side stronger abilities, making the game easier or harder, or making you think the choices did anything and sometimes just have the same result. About 98% of the games that do this do not do it right.
    Well yeah, I agree with some of that, and I defiantly have played a game through more than once just to see what evil was like. Honestly, not even sure why I play the game goodie goodie anymore because I personally find goodie goodies very boring.

    But I do agree with games that allow your moral actions to benefit you or hurt you. Be good, not commit the warcrime, but be forced to play the game a lot harder. Or be evil, commit the warcrime, and the level has lost something that would'ved hounded and harass you if you didn't.

    Well, I do look at both sides. I agree with some things one side does, and disagree with it on the other.

    I mean, all I want for Christmas is a system that doesn't reward the rich and make them super rich who then proceed to make the government their bitch, but also doesn't reward the freeloaders too. Asking for too much?

    It is a system that definitely needs to be rethought, or if it is something that a developer feels is right for the game, it is done the right way.

    That is something that I would like as well, some sort of middle ground, but all of the politicians seem to think it is one way or the other.

    So there I was, pouring myself a nice glass of Coco Pops, and I noticed next to the glass there was a half chopped up squash. I looked inside it at all the seeds and crap, and thought to myself, lol, it looks like a Pseudo-Pumpkin. Then I repeated to myself out loud "Heh, Pseudo Pseudo". Ya know, kinda like it was a pokemon that repeats the first half of it's name to talk.

    AND THEN MY MIND EXPLODED.

    Sudowoodo! I just thought it was a funny name. I suddenly realized the name meant" Pseudo - Wood", as in Fake wood, because it's actually a ground type mimicking a tree. How could I not have noticed this over all the years of playing Pokemon!

    I could barely contain myself, my legs turned to jelly as I spasm'd all over the floor shouting to myself SUDOWOODO PSEUDOWOODO SUDOWOODO PSEUDOWOODO

    I managed to reach into my pocket to grab my phone, and attempted to call the emergency services, however I noticed that for some inane reason I wasn't getting any signal! Yet there was a wi-fi connection. and I realized there was no where else to turn.

    Can anyone help me? I need an ambulance and psychiatric doctor immediately, I can't take another explosion like that.

    Do you know why politicians, now more than ever, believe they can't compromise? Gerrymandering.

    The Districts are now so loaded one way or the other, it is political suicide to take the smallest step off the party line. Prior to these insane redistrictings, politicians could count on moderates of both parties to carry them if the extremes viewed them as weak on the party line. Now, the districts have few or no moderates, and they all almost without fail belong to the same party as the extreme remaining in the district.

    Gerrymandering, coupled with exorbitant pork barrel spending and massive political bribes are the poisons crippling our nation.

    Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh GOD! Console Exclusives are what needs to die! I hate that crap so much!

    It is basically one Console paying off a video game company to screw over the other Console which in the end just screws over the consumer! I hate any company that does it and EA will happily do it. But I am sure EA doesn't even lose momentum at the hatred of it.

    I dont care who is making money off who! I want to give you my money to play the thing you made! So stop deigning me a game because my Black Box is made by someone you dont care about!

    I read all of it, but at this point all I was thinking was "Leonardo Leonardo" from the short-lived Clerks cartoon.

    You would really like The Suffering. It's a survival horror FPS or 3rd PS (you can change view modes) and you can choose to be good or evil as the game progresses. There are no menu choices, you can just choose to kill, save, not save, or indirectly kill people you meet which gives you a good evil or neutral ending. Sometimes it is beneficial to save people since they will help you later or maybe fight alongside you. Other times you're better off just letting them die or using them as bait (wait for a pack of monsters to corner them and then toss in a molotov cocktail. It's one of my favorite games and it's free to download now. Only problem is it's old. :s

    Well as interesting as it sounds. Survival Horror games just aren't my cup of tea (seriously, bloody tea is not many peoples tea I think). I got what it was trying to do. Just not interested in monster jumping out of no where and me screaming and saying to myself "I was not expecting that, but this is in-fact no very horrifying, it's just just gory"

    It's not a console exclusive. Bethesda royally fucked the PS3 market because they slacked off in development for the PS3 port.
