    When was the last time something made you actually cry/tear up?

    The Hobbit made me tear up a few times. I'd been waiting so long for that film and I loved the book as a child. So when 'Concerning Hobbits' kicked in on the soundtrack and Bilbo said "In a hole in a ground, there lived a Hobbit", I am completely unashamed to admit I shed a tear or two. That...

    Your Favorite Let's Player

    I love watching Best Friends Play, but my absolute favourite is a English guy called Heartless (or 666theheartless666). The lets play that got me hooked on his stuff was this'un: His best let's play was Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth. His sanity seems to just drain away...

    Rumour: Half-Life 3 coming in the next few years?

    *sigh* really? Open world? Quests? Not sure which is worse, the fact that someone took the time to make this (rather unconvincing) rumor up, or the fact that the gaming media seems to believe it enough to publish articles on it. Enough with the rumor-mill, I'm bored now. Officially ceasing...

    How do you lose weight?

    Right now I'm going back to trying to lose weight- mostly because I caught sight of myself in a mirror one day and thought "double-chin ahoy!" I tend to eat fairly healthily, and cook a lot of my meals from scratch, but I really can't lie about having the occasional takeaway and the...

    What Happened to The Sims?

    The Sims has always been popular in my family, both me and my mum have loved them since the beginning- they're kind of a very guilty pleasure to me, but an amazing time-sink. I've had issues about where the Sims has been going since the second or third expansion pack for the 3rd gen. I was...

    Fictional deaths that hit you the hardest

    Oh god where to begin (I'm terrible with sad moments in games/films and tv). Basically in every one of these, I cried or was brought close to tears.

    So Dawnguard is out and its pretty much broken.

    ^^ I agree with this guy. OT: It's not broken if you haven't given the game time to adjust to having the new content. It's not just going to magically appear, is it? As many have suggested, just go to your dashboard, restart the game and then go to some major city. Either talk to a guard and...

    Five Best Shows Recently on TV

    No love for House on here? It used to be my favourite... until it, you know, finished like, yesterday. Seriously though, I only watched it for the really gross diseases and Hugh Laurie, who pretty much carries the entire series by himself. The Walking Dead I have kind of a weird on-off...

    Games that genuinely make you angry.

    Dragon Age 2- I frequently have intense arguments with my boyfriend about this game, and how much I think it sucked in comparison to Dragon Age: Origins. It was all kinds of rushed, the devs clearly cut corners with things such as the environments (did they really expect us not to notice them...
