Since the snowball achievement during the Steam Gift Pile, I've been playing Spiral Knights. One thing I've noticed is that I seem to be getting the same levels a lot, despite several things/people mentioning that the Clockworks cycle levels. So I began to wonder, could it be because I play at ...

I just finished the first campaign mission (Griffin Bane) on Normal difficulty and apparently my completion score was 12250 (46%). The tooltip says I can Increase [my] score by completing quests, picking up resources and artifacts, defeating neutral packs and heroes and controlling capturabl...

Pretty much a yes/no question. Is there a way to keep from getting killed the instant you spaw in the game. No so much the problem with rush or conquest, just the darn, pesky death match games. Yes, the spawn points are supposed to be random, but it could just be the nature of the game, or tro...

What's the weapon in the co-op missions "Drop 'em like liquid" and "Exfiltration" of Battlefield 3? Can it be unlocked and used in multiplayer mode? As far as I can recall, it's a powerful automatic marksman rifle with magnified night-vision sights. The only IRNV sights that I can find as unlock...

Does it protect from falling? fire? explosions? suffocation? How much damage it absorbs per enchantment level? Wiki says enough about other enchantments but for 'protection' enchantment there is some vague Converts environmental damage to armor damage

My gaming room is just a bit too big. At the far end, where most of my couch space is, the Wii is on the limit of it's detection range, skipping from one frame to the next. I have heard there are devices on the market that can extend the range of the Wii sensors somewhat, but a search on Amazon h...

I want my companion(Mako) to focus on only healing me but she keeps attacking people. How can I get her to only heal me and not attack? If she focused on healing I would be a lot better off. Does anyone know what to set to do this. I also keep turning off her attacking abilities and they keep tur...

When playing Tetris Axis with Items turned on, is there a way to switch between powerups? If I have an item that switches my screen with my opponent's, and an item that adds blocks to their screen, and I am doing well, I won't want to switch screens with them, but I might want to add blocks to th...

I'm looking at an enemy hero that's "visiting" in an enemy fort. The threat estimate shows High (Trivial) for one of my heroes and Deadly (Trivial) for the other. What does this mean? Can I attack this hero and expect to win?

As far as I can remember, I never had a follower - unless it was one who was part of a quest. However, now when I try and recruit one, I get the "I see you already have someone with you" message. This "someone" has never showed up at my house, has not reappeared for days, etc. Is this a bug?

How exactly does the SOFLAM work? Do you always need to be manning it in order to lock on to enemy vehicles?

How would you approach a good missile build in this game and what ships would you use for that? I am currently playing with lasers @ lvl 55, but I have issues surviving. I become a zombie way too often and lose my ship. Any Hints towards such an approach?

I understand how the basic Culture Bomb works. What I'm asking is if you own the tile adjacent to a neighboring city (other player or City State) and perform a Culture Bomb in it, will you take over that city? In the picture below, the x's are your territory, the o's are your neighbor's, and the...

During the Holiday sales, I logged in to Steam on a different computer (one powerful enough to actually run my games :). When I logged back in on my notebook, all of my categories except one were deleted, and all of the games except one were removed from my favourites and from the one remaining c...

Sometimes I'd like to give all my ships orders and let the AI work on them without my manual intervention. So far however, I always had to control one ship manually. Can I give up on that and let the AI do all the work? I'd like to use this to do the boring stuff, like flying across a larger m...

Now that the ancient Hylian font in Skyward Sword has been decoded, is there a list or some other resource somewhere of all text in the game and its translation? I sometimes see text in the game but I don't see myself decoding it myself.

I found that I can order my companion (Lydia in my case, but guess it doesn't matter) to sleep by pointing at the bed while in "command mode". What is the point of this? All other commands have some real use, for example asking him/her to pick things, attack something etc. I tried to join the c...

I've just got a graphic tablet (Wacom Bamboo), I plan to use it mainly for photo editing. I'm wondering if it would be usefull in a game, or if there was any game in which using a graphic tablet would be more usefull than a mouse. Any experience to share? Thanks in advance.

I couldn't find any info anywhere, even on the official website - what's the online model of this game? Is it a persistent massive world or what? If it's not, how to you play multiplayer? Everyone starts from scratch or somehow your progress is saved?

Generally speaking, a game doesn't give you options without valid scenarios in which to use those options. Specifically, there's probably a reason we're given the option to sell towers in Squadron TD, but I never sell them because I don't wish to waste what I've spent. After wave 20, is, for ins...

I've recently started playing The Binding of Isaac, and I've noticed that some walls can be bombed to reveal a secret room containing coins, or items. The problem is, I can't tell which ones can be destroyed and which ones can't, leading me to place (read: waste) bombs on random walls. So, is th...

Obviously, at some point I have had enemies fire arrows at me but now I am still running around with 2 arrows stuck in my characters arm. Since aquiring these, at least two weeks have passed in the game and they will not go away. Any ideas how to get rid of them ?

I heard rumors that in Mass Effect 3 Cerberus will turn on you regardless what you chose (to save the Prothean station or not). Is this true or just "some rumor"? The reason I'm asking is that if I save the station it can be a valuable asset in ME3 if Cerberus remains friendly but a threat otherw...

When controlled by AI, I saw one of my ships shooting backwards. (It was fleeing, but the turret the gun was mounted on turned to shoot at the chasing enemy.) Can I do this when controlling my ship with a mouse and keyboard? Normally when I use the w key to move forward, the ship follows the ...

I'd like to know if there any way to use a wii guitar (drumset, ...) on a ps3; with and/or without any adaptater ? (Or a ps3 guitar, and so, on a wii)

I've been playing dungeons of dredmor recently and I found that game awesome. I am currently looking for this kind of games, but I would like it to have actual graphics. It seems that most of the roguelike games are in ASCII. Any suggestions? Thanks - A.

I'm at what I'm pretty sure is the final battle of Costume Quest. But it seems impossible, for a number of reasons: I'm up against 2 bosses simultaneously, with 4000 HP each. Araxia can apparently decide to become invulnerable for several turns. While Araxia merely hits hard, Big Bones hits lik...

I am quite new to all this and recently got an Xbox with call of duty which I love. Are there any other shooting games that are similar quality in way of storyline and graphics etc. What is the best one? Cheers!

When playing in Fever mode, I noticed that sometimes I trigger something called a Color Attack, where all of a sudden the board flips around and has spots for a series of one specific block, which is great for increasing my score. I have no idea how to make sure I get this, though - it doesn't s...

I am running my own Sneaky Archer using Conjuration to support myself. Yesterday i started to think about contracting vampirism, but i have some questions about it. ** Spoiler Alert: ** 2 - How long ( in game hours/days ) does it takes for each stage to end and start a new (higher) one ? 3 ...

Minecraft's mushroom biome sounds like a pleasant place: Food in abundant supply, and zero hostile mob spawns. However, in all my time playing, I've never ever found one. Is there a trick to finding them, or do you just have to get lucky?

I can't get achievements in this game, also the Steam In-game function doesn't work. May this problem related to the fact that the game is in Flash? Anyone has the same problem?

I don't want to rehash old arguments about the validity of these types of questions, since they're generally accepted as being on-topic for the site. However, it seems like a good percentage of them require us to prompt people for way more information than they initially provide. I don't real...

It seems to be bugged because there are two types of games that don't show up in the game. Is there a way to fix this?

I mean the "<insert game name> master" hats. Their description says this: 3 upvoted questions or answers tagged "x" That's a bit ambiguous. Does that mean either 3 upvoted questions or 3 upvoted answers, or questions and answers combined?
