    Poll: Will you buy Fallout : New Vegas

    I think so. I've not really read much about it so I don't know how far beyond Fallout 3 in a different setting it is but I enjoyed the heck out of that. Though I might do the same as Broady and wait for the GotY edition. All the DLC for F3 cost a fortune.

    Counter Strike Source Beta

    I'm still downloading it. My main concern is whilst it's good to give players this update I feel there are far more pressing things they should be doing with their time. The Left 4 Dead games are still full of bugs and glitches that have been in since day one. Stop updating TF2 every 14.6...

    Where do you get your gaming news?

    I don't really think of The Escapist as a news site. Maybe I should look into it more. I'm mostly here for Zero Punctuation and Unskippable. For me I get pretty much all my gaming news from Kotaku. Reviews from IGN. But I also subscribe to Games? magazine.

    What is the most charming game you've played?

    For sure I'd have to say Little Big Planet and Machinarium. Not only are they superb games but they do just radiate warmth and fuzziness :P

    Congratulations Wolfire, Humble Indie Bundle Breaks $1 Million

    That's awesome. I wish I could have afforded to donate a bit more but I'm pleased to see the average is still lower than what I gave :P Some pretty neat games in there too.

    Poll: What difficulty level do you play on (first playthrough)?

    I usually stick it on Medium. Unless it's something in a series where I know I'll do better on Easy or Hard.

    What's Your Geeky Ringtone?

    I just have a dull normal ringtone but my SMS alert is the Battle Celebration music from FF7.

    best tutorial-ish levels ever?

    I don't like tutorials that unlock moves as you go along, you know what I mean? You can't jump until you get to the part of the tutorial where you need to jump, that kind of thing. I'd have to agree with Call of Duty 2 and Half-Life 2, those tutorials worked quite well. The Tomb Raider ones...

    Favorite game as a Child?

    Sonic the Hedgehog 2. It got me into console gaming and turned me into a Sonic/Sega fan.

    U.S. Congress Seeks New Videogame Legislation

    What is wrong with the world? Why do people find it so hard to decipher the ratings on games? It seems pretty straight forward to me. The only thing that might be a little confusing are the symbols the PEGI uses in Europe, a icon with a spider on it denotes horror, a fist indicates violence...

    Poll: Martyrdom

    I'm amazed at how much people whine about everything in CoD4. The M16 is overpowered, Juggy is for noobs, Claymores are cheap, the list goes on. CoD4 also has the most trash talking I have ever encountered in a multiplayer game and I've been playing them online for more than 10 years. I...

    The Unlockables Debate

    Warioware Smooth Moves comes to mind, before you could play any multiplayer at all you had to finish the single player mode. Okay it's easy enough to do that in turns but to have to unlock multiplayer, never mind extra characters or levels etc is amazing.

    COD4 what paranoid habits have you developed

    Not CoD4 related but I used to hear that "ba-boop" noise the 360 makes when someone logs in etc >_>

    Poll: CoD4's New Maps: Like, Dislike, or don't have?

    Where is the "I don't like them" option? Personally I do like them, Killhouse can **** off and die but the rest are pretty good. Broadcast and Creek are my favourites.

    Buying games from STEAM = ripoff?

    This :) I think $70 seems like a lot for CoD4, I don't know what games usually go for in the US but that one always seemed high. But I'm not too fussed because as Richasr said I pay roughly half the Steam price. Got TF2 for £15, which is cheaper than I can get it here, plus no CD's to lose...
