    Poll: What would you do if a girl was crying in front of you?

    I was presented with this situation once in my life and my instinct then was to console her. If it was someone I didn't care about or didn't know though, I would ignore them.

    Poll: Which L4D Character Should Die in "The Passing"

    I'm going to say it's Bill. For practical reasons. They(Valve) had a hard time reacquiring his services for Crash Course (they didn't) and future contracts, so I'm pretty sure they're going to kill him off for convenience sake. It'd be awesome and hilarious if he dies without saying a...

    Hardware Review - Roccat Kave 5.1 Surround Sound Headset

    Interesting that you just wrote this, it was a good read. I have this headset myself and was just looking up what sound setting was best for Bad Company 2 with the Roccat Kave. I can't really decide between Home Cinema, HiFi or War Tapes. War Tapes is immersive but there is a lot of...

    Well UK, It must be fun living in a real life "V For Vandetta". Drones unleashed

    Don't they already do this with standard helicopters? I mean you see choppers hovering over London all the time surveying the roads, people, cars, etc. UAV drones are just far more efficient and cheaper. The UK is the most spied upon nation in the world by its own government on its own people...

    US magazines vs UK magazines

    Your point is actually quite valid. If you watch a GameTrailers show called Invisible Walls, this subject has been brought up countless times. Print in the US is very poor and a dying industry (EGM was the biggest gaming magazine in the US and now it's dead and buried). Most people in the...

    Light of Altair

    I'm pretty sure he wasn't. The Greek and Arabic meanings of that name are quite different. If you're referring to the Altaïr Ibn La'Ahad from Assassins Creed, he was named so because it supposedly means "Flying Eagle", "Son of None" in Arabic and Assassins Creed has a theme surrounding that...

    no PS3 price cut... Sony, why?

    You need to relax, you rant far too much. Secondly, I may have jumped the gun to a logical conclusion that may be incorrect. All reports that the PS3 is making a loss are from the last fiscal year. There have been no reports this quarter on the PS3's profit/loss ratings; for all we know, the PS3...

    no PS3 price cut... Sony, why?

    They are in profit at the current price and considering the losses on the PS3, they need to sell in profit as opposed to sell extra units at more loss. Considering the lineup this year, if they can lower manufacturing costs, they may lower the price (as long as they stay in profit) for...

    What does our generation fear?

    North Korea. And if you're not scared, you should be... you will be... Heck, China and Russia don't scare easy and they seem pretty tense about the whole thing.

    Joker Playable Exclusive in Batman: Arkhum Asylum on the PS3

    I own neither console but I'm probably going to have to agree with all those PS3 people who'll say, "Them PS3 boys have missed out far more worthwhile content (Fallout 3 DLC, GTAIV DLC, etc.) than you 360 boys, so are you really going to whine and stinge about such a trivial piece of content...

    Inventing new letters

    I assume it's just for letterheads and banners when they write the entire word in upper case, since I don't think there is a word that starts with ß, is there?

    What is EA actually doing wrong as a developer?

    EA are mainly publishers not developers. They have published many great games: Populous (with Bullfrog Productions) Ultima Online (with Origin Systems) Command & Conquer (with Westwood Studios) Dungeon Keeper (with Bullfrog Productions) Battlefield (with DICE) Crysis (with Crytek and...

    Poll: A question for you English blokes

    I'm British and we never drink lagers (what you refer to as beer) warm, NEVER EVER. It's a stereotype completely misunderstood. The only thing we "might" ever drink warm, or room temperature I should say, would be high quality ales, it's quite a niche habit and rare to see. It's also rather...
