Caltrops is and always has been a bastion of axe-grinding bittermen. Often funny and nearly always eloquent AGBs, but card-carrying full-on hard-on AGBs nonetheless. I am glad it continues to survive. It serves a purpose.
However, celebrating the simple, innocent fun of playing a computer game is never, and will never be, that purpose. |

This game deserves more of a critical savaging than it has received. by Hans Clastorp 11/02/2014, 9:35am PST 
I'd love to see Reynolds' reaction by fabio 11/02/2014, 2:28pm PST
I don't get the impression he cares about games anymore. He moved into f2p, NT by he wants to get paid and get out 11/02/2014, 2:53pm PST

Criticism IS fun! by Mischief Maker 11/06/2014, 5:08am PST
Your plan only works if everyone here has the same taste in games. Which, hey, NT by maybe that's the way it is. 11/06/2014, 5:52am PST
That's like saying everyone who turns down McDonalds has the same taste. NT by Mischief Maker 11/06/2014, 6:13am PST
Ideally people know what they like well enough to bridge that gap. by Worm 11/06/2014, 6:30am PST

Absolutely not true! by Mischief Maker 11/06/2014, 4:48pm PST
Absolutely true! by pinback 11/06/2014, 7:50pm PST
He's got you there, MM NT by WITTGENSTEIN 11/06/2014, 8:14pm PST
It only seems that way because shmups are cheaper and more prolific than 4X. by Mischief Maker 11/07/2014, 4:22am PST
I didn't purchase BE. And axe grinding is fine, but are you guys really writing NT by about videogames? - RertroRomper 11/09/2014, 7:49pm PST

Well you wouldn't say someone is wrong for waiting for it to go on sale right? by Worm 11/06/2014, 1:49pm PST
Nobody is wrong for waiting for a sale, no. by pinback 11/06/2014, 2:30pm PST
Gosh yeah I should pre-order it and play the shit out of it to crack this case. by Worm 11/06/2014, 3:20pm PST
Your hard-line principles have obviously made you a happier person. by pinback 11/06/2014, 3:24pm PST

This "reskinning" bit is starting to sound like people played for 30 minutes. by pinback 11/06/2014, 1:48pm PST
When I saw the "Frenzied Aliens" option in a video I laughed. NT by Worm 11/06/2014, 1:50pm PST
That option is not part of the standard game. NT by CALTROPS BE MAKIN' FUN OF OPTIONS 11/06/2014, 2:28pm PST
