I have never been able to play evil in a game either and it used to puzzle me. I've come to the conclusion that I have an excess of empathy that extends even to lines of computer code. I'm one of those people who feels personally responsible for every homeless person and I just can't do bad...

"If God were a villain, he'd be me". Benedict (Charles Dance) from Last Action Hero

Finally a space where I can express my love for Dragon Age 2! Despite all of the negative criticism this game got I really loved playing it and enjoyed it more as an experience than the first Dragon Age. The main reason for this was the story. I really liked the way that the game narrowed...

I live in St Neots UK which is just outside Cambridge. My town's sole unique claim to fame is that the man who shot the only British Prime Minister to be assassinated was born here.

I have a radiation suit, gas mask (with SEALED filter) and geiger counter. I'd like to buy a year's worth of dried food but it doesn't actually last that long. If only someone would make some nuclear chow.

I loved a low budget game on the 360 called Secret Service. I'd just been on holiday to Washington and it was a blast to eviscerate terrorists in the landmarks I visited. Also if I remember the AI was quite good and the terrorists voices were funny. Oh and I once became weirdly obsessed with 'A...

No-one Lives Forever! Basically a slightly better Austin Powersesque spy spoof wrapped around a fps. My favourite moment is where you have to sneak around an East German town speaking to your contacts, however the person who set the code phrases has a slightly dirty mind. I'll never forget...

No One Lives Forever is very British indeed, albeit in an Austin Powers kind of way.

No One Lives Forever on the ps2. It had archaic graphics even at the time but it was amazingly funny. I remember one mission where you had to protect a short sighted American ambassador from assassins with him utterly oblivious to the danger around him. Ah I must swallow my graphics snobbery and...

For what it's worth I've recently bought an Asus netbook and I'm thrilled with it. It was the cheapest netnook around but it's got a lovely matt case and runs well. I run puppy linux on it via a usb stick and it's blisteringly fast.

I'm 24 and I have not what I would define as a proper relationship. I've had sex a fair bit but have never really dated another guy. To a certain extent I think this is a problem with being gay, casual sex is easier to find than long term relationships. Mostly though it's just due to my...

It's got to be nuclear for the very simple reason that games like Fallout massively exaggerate how bad a nuclear war would be. Sure millions would be dead and there would be no Sky for a while but the government would survive plus loads of remote places would be fine. Also radioactive fallout...

I would recommend The Once and Future King by T H White. It's a lot longer than 300 pages but it's a very easy read, it's the only book I've read that i would definately recommend for both adults and children. It's basically the legend of Arthur with some various fantasy excursions of it's own...

I'll play any game with zeppelins in it no matter how bad (such as Turning Point for example). Plus one of my favourite ps1 games was 'no one can stop mr domino'.

Ok I have quite a list! 1.) The hypnotoad noise 2.) Cylon and Garfunkle's version of Scarborough Fair. 3.) Nixon singing White Rabbit "Do what the dormouse said, feed your head. I'm meeting you half way you stupid hippies". 4.) "The Space Pope" 5.) (Farnsworth when visiting...
