    Tom and Jerry cartoons carry racism warning.

    Family Guy is making jokes about racism though, much different from the old Warner Bros cartoons which were sometimes just very racist. I think they've had an introductory screen on the DVD's for a long time now that explain the racism and that they didn't remove those cartoons because they are...

    I like Black Lagoon and Jormungand. What You Got?

    Oh yeah I remember that, that was a pretty fun show as well.

    What's Your Most Recent Purchase?

    I really should get that, the fact that all their albums are on Spotify is stopping me though. I wonder if they're coming anywhere near me on their next tour...

    Low Spec Games and Old Classics.

    Torchlight 2 is currently on sale on Steam (75% off), good for quite a few hours of hack 'n slash fun as long as you don't care about a deep storyline and just like smashing zombies, skeletons, demons and whatnot by the hundreds. Think Diablo 2+, made by mostly the same people as well. It's...

    Pre-orders: What's the big deal?

    I considered pre ordering the new Borderlands game but all you get for that is 1 arena that probably won't be very fun or interesting and can most likely be bought for 3 bucks or so later on, might as well wait for the reviews before I spend ?50.

    Poll: Some simple perspective

    People with green eyes are like the green party in the US, you exist but nobody really cares because there's so few of you.

    Poll: Rubber Band AI: Yay or Nay?

    Ah, that could be. I haven't played MK64 in years and years and back then I was still a kid. I certainly never had a problem with it in Double Dash, if anything that game was just too easy. There was some wonkiness with AI racers as the heavy ones were always the best and all AI always aims all...

    Trouser Snakes on a Plane

    Seems like the guy has/had serious mental issues. Kind of unfortunate that that happened during flight but shit happens.

    Very fancy dress shoes [http://i.imgur.com/R2myW5A.jpg] and [url=http://i.imgur.com/ZWScolx.jpg]a new teacup[/url[ with part of an Indian (I think) newspaper printed on/in it.

    What game series did you find completely lacking or should have a 2nd shot with another developer?

    I don't know if there's still enough interest left in Duke Nukem for it to be worth it, the last good Duke Nukem game is almost 20 years old now? That's older than half the gamers out there today. And that's eve ignoring the question of whether the Duke Nukem recipe is still at all relevant...

    I like Black Lagoon and Jormungand. What You Got?

    I don't know Jormungand but I think Berserk has a similar sort of brutality to it as Black Lagoon but then in a fantasy setting.

    can i drive cs:go

    CS:GO is not a car, boat, bike or anything else that can be driven so no, no you can't. About 10 seconds of googling finds you the required specs [http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2672043] which you're not exactly close to either so you can't run it on your laptop...

    Called It!! Games You Were Too Smart To Be Fooled By. (SPOILERS)

    Women weren't what you'd call common on ships back in those days, if they weren't considered bad luck to have around the brutally hard work environment alone would keep almost all women (and many men) away. There is actually a fairly interesting wikipedia article...

    Poll: Rubber Band AI: Yay or Nay?

    I haven't played any Mario Kart games beyond Double Dash but I never really noticed it in there (other than blue shields and such). Is it that bad in the newer/newest Mario Kart games? If only they brought F-Zero back, with the brutal difficulties. That was frustrating as all hell but at...

    Is there another game with AI as protagnist?

    Beyond Claptrap being a robot that doesn't really fit though. He's just a walking (rolling?) joke factory with a bit too much of an it's random so it's funny gimmick going on for my taste. The few times his AI has been mentioned in the past it's been in service of a joke.
