    GAME Australia enters administration, takes Diablo III?

    A lot of people are being screwed by this, employees included. I stopped into my local Game after I was told, and it was clear the girl there had been crying, she'd been abused by dozens of assholes more concerned about their game than the money or this person's job. I'm pissed that we...

    The loss of a pet

    Having had pets, a house full, all my life.. I've got many experiences with this. The worst is always the first. When I was somewhere between five and seven, the elderly dog my parents had adopted shortly after I was born finally needed to make the trip. They warned me it was happening while...

    UK to change videogame ratings

    Oh, I know that. They should still be ignored. You shouldn't make rules based upon a lack of personal responsiblity, this goes for everything, anyone someone willingly does they should be the only and sole person held responsible for it. In the case of parents, they are responsible...

    UK to change videogame ratings

    The response to parents who don't read the ratings or know the content needs and should be only one thing. Tough luck. Personal responsibility, 100%, all the time, no exceptions.

    UK to change videogame ratings

    Parents are responsible for their children, and in the UK/Europe this is taken far more seriously than the US, for example. Parents can allow their kids to drink, why shouldn't they be able to allow them to play mature rated video games?

    Biggest pain you've ever felt?

    I had to have all the teeth in my upper jaw removed and replaced immediately with a denture ontop of the wounds. The drugs knocked me out for the best part of two days.. then I woke up a screaming drooling mess. I then had to remove the plate to clean the wounds and then put it back in around...

    Do you have a hard time rewatching things?

    I can watch and read things again as long as I leave awhile between sittings. Games are what I struggle with, even a game with "Excellent Replayability!" like RPGs... I do almost everything the first time through, the same route and story with different dialogue doesn't interest me.

    Poll: Is shakespeare great?

    Most of his stories have been done better, since, but for modern culture he /was/ the source of most of the stories we tell. Shakespeare no doubt took his ideas from pervious works, but they have been lost to the ages for the most part.

    With Spoilers, Discuss the Avengers

    Pretty much the same reaction as I did, about Phil, but my wife pointed out an interesting possibility on the way home. He might not be dead. Nick Fury is a manipulative twat, he pretended those cards were in his pocket and outright lied to the Avengers, I think he'd be more than capable...

    Damned Cats

    Never, ever, take cat advice from a pet store.. or pet advice in general.. speak to a vet, people in stores /want/ you to buy things. Having recently transitioned from outside to inside cats, I can only recommend putting your litter trays in tiled areas. My youngest cat came out of a pet...

    Poll: You, trash and the environment

    I try to throw things away properly whenever it is reasonably possible, not for any enviromental reasons, but rather because it's bloody disgusting to throw your litter on the ground. I think nothing of throwing food on the ground, various animals will eat it, but packaging, cans, etc all go...

    A fear

    I had this alot when I was growing up. It got so bad that I distanced myself from friends who I'd known for most of my life because I was convinced they were setting me up, teen movie style, for some huge practical joke. I automatically rejected friends and even girls I liked because it was all...

    Poll: Who is going to comicon in Australia?

    Wasn't intending to, but now they've added Perth dates we'll go take a look. Always been abit warey of Cons. The only one I've been to was the big GW Golden Demon con or whatever they called it, in England, when I was 17, it sucked.

    What is Warhammer 40k?

    I've been following 40k for the best part of twenty years, and I'd definitely steer clear of the tabletop these days. There are so many cheaper options with interesting new takes, like War Machine which even uses the same rules as that company's fantasy line, Hordes, so you can play them...

    Things That Annoy You

    Walking is a form of transportation, it's sole and only purpose is to get from one place to another in the most efficient manner possible without breaking into a jog. Shopping is the act of going into shops, taking what you need from the shelves, and taking them to the checkout. Neither...
