If there is one major side effect to be accounted for following my completion of The Witcher 2, it is this: Poland is my new favourite country. CD Projekt's latest creation is a 20 hour digital tapestry of gaming brilliance (Give a take a few depending on your need to explore and thirst for...

I always have one on the go. I voted for once a month but now thinking about it it's more like one a week. I have books like Elephants on Acid, Darwin awards, Hippo Eats Dwarf (Collections of amusing occurrences, factual and legendary) next to the porcelain throne. Nothing like sitting down...

You've not experienced true online stupidity until you've played a game like DoTA (A warcraft 3 mod that started it all), Heroes of Newerth or League of Legends. There are people who are new and unused to the games, because it's a very new genre to the mass market and that's fine. However...

Ocarina of Time. I know it's from 1998 but a) it's a game about time travel and therefore, in combination with its pure awesomeness, transcends such petty boundaries as years and decades and b) it was re-released on Wii Network so I'm counting it.

It's the usual Square Enix cock teasing. It was also the conversational equivalent of a nipple slip at a launch party by one individual. They made a tech demo for the damn game for the PS3, knowing the hubbub it would cause, then waited for a small aeon before finally denying it was in...

Sim games. Sim city/farm/ant colony/hospital/theme park/commercial flight/train station/anaesthetist/colonoscopy.

My best advice for this game is don't ever use auto-battle.....ever. It builds bad habits in the early game, which will make it a lot harder once you hit Gran Pulse, and you simply won't be able to get away with using it in Gran Pulse either, the wild life will eat your face. A word of...

It's a country consisting of 1.33 billion people, policed by a Force in which over half of their numbers are used as an internal private army by the "people's party" to stamp out sedition. Petty crime is astronomic in China because they simply can't police it. The country is governed on the...

Well to be fair, China started it when they trained their up and coming military IT specialists to attempt to hack into the G-mail servers, and got busted. China is a freaking foreign policy time bomb. It's like watching a petulant, self-entitled child try their hand at international...

I was going to say Final Fantasy, but now I'll have to jump on Arfreid's band wagon and say JRPG's in general. Final Fantasy's stories are confused heaps of unexplainable, inhuman melodrama and anti-climax. Voice acting. No, just stop it please. Don't spend half your budget on making...

I have to say the latest episodes': - Baron Von Teapot's "fucking ludicrous" Adventure. Not only made me laugh but made me want to play a game with that title. - The whipped cream genocide Brouhaha. - So here's Too Human; the game Silicon Knights have been making instead of Eternal...

First I'd just like to say that whoever did the stabbing must be the physical cross between Vin Diesel and a Silverback mountain Gorilla. It's not just poking out, he stuck a foot long knife all the way through the sorry sod's freaking skull. Did he take a chuffing run up followed by a flying...

Bullet Magnet.

Everyone's taste in comedy varies, I have a harder time understanding when people don't find something funny. With that said, things I don't find funny that others seem to. Female comedians. Now this might seem like a massive generalisation, and with the exception of Sarah Silverman and...
