I know exactly how you feel. I have backed, but only at the second most basic level - £26 - and even at that, I 'ummed and arred' until just before they put their old website down to make room for the new one. My justification was that, even if the ship-buying economy of the final game is...

So far as I'm aware, I don't have one. Been here quite a while, but I post very rarely. That's not to say that those few things I do post are any good - take this sentence, for example - but there isn't an awful lot of it. Now, if I had any demand, I'd be in a fairly good position: it's hard...

Mr Flibble says: tentatively excited.

It didn't go under. It got relocated, with all the employees moving with it. The headline is misleading. An inconvenience for those who will have to move, to be sure, but the studio didn't go under.

Couldn't this be more accurately described as 'Facebook' outrage? The vast majority of people with views resembling Janice's 'God made us to be man and women not gay' are barely even aware of the rest of the Internet's existence, and even less likely to know how to express their 'righteous...

I like both, though if I had to choose between them, I'd probably go PC, simply because of the gaming support and the fact that, assuming we're talking about custom desktops, they are far more cost-effective. Right now, I have a PC that I use for gaming and media consumption (films, TV shows...

My guy's a male Imperial spellsword... Of awesome, and he's named Lawrence, after the lead character of Naomi Novik's Temeraire books.

I'm excited; I loved GTA IV and Red Dead: Redemption; it's been far too long since the last Rockstar game came out. I'm in the apparent minority that enjoy both the over-the-top, incredibly ridiculous style of open world game (Saints Row, Just Cause 2) AND Rockstar's more realistic, story-driven...

I just consider DLC to be a more convenient form of expansion pack. As long as a piece of DLC is well-made, fairly priced and substantial, I have absolutely no problem with it. In particular, I feel that the way Bethesda/Obsidian have handled DLC for the Fallout games, and BioWare with quality...

I'd never let anything so trivial as having to install Origin keep me from playing a genuinely good game. And as I have every reason to believe that Mass Effect 3 will be an absolutely spectacular game, made by one of my favourite developers, yes, EA can have all the personal information they...

According to certain moderately successful fan-artists on the Internet... Yes, very much so.

Mine were never married, man. I'm a thoroughly Glorious Bastard.

Rimmer: "They've been naughty boys, haven't they, Mr. Flibble?" Mr. Flibble: "Yes!" Rimmer: "What happens to naughty boys who've been naughty, Mr. Flibble?" Mr. Fibble: "Uncle Arnie fries them alive with his hex vision." ... I am soooooooooo screwed.

Well, they are kinda trying to kill you - or, at least, most of them are (there are totally friendly dragons. FRIENDLY MOTHERFUDGING DRAGONS.). I chanted this for around a minute after reading the article: "I want to build a sword. I want to build a sword. I want to build a sword. I want...
