    What should you be doing right now?

    I should really be writing my final year dissertation right now, it's due at midnight tonight.

    Your funeral song?

    Definitely "Climbing Up The Walls" by Radiohead, just to lighten the mood.

    The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind

    Oblivion when viewed in isolation is a brilliant game, bit if you played and loved Morrowind it was severely disappointing. For me Oblivion was good, but only when it was modded to be more like Morrowind. First of all the leveling enemies, in Morrowind there is a real sense of progression, yes...

    Best Soundtrack in a game

    The main theme from Morrowind still sends a shiver down my spine, although most of the music in that game is pretty generic classical stuff. The music in the last three GTA games was pretty sweet, I particularly enjoyed some of the cheesy country music in San Andreas, despite having a general...

    Let's talk GTA IV

    I'm not really expecting anything particularly earth shattering from this game, just prettier graphics and a load more things to do, but that isn't a bad thing. I was a big fan of the early games and enjoyed GTA3, Vice city got the formula just about perfect with the awesome music, great...

    This is pretty annoying, if and when they start doing this I will probably cancel. If only their broadband wasn't so damn fast (at least in my area) compared to just about all the other ISPs.

    Poll: Do you believe in a higher power?

    I used to be an atheist but then came to the conclusion that atheism contains something of a contradiction, it goes a little bit like this: If you are an atheist you are essentially denying the possibility of any form of higher power. Since there is a huge amount we do not understand about the...

    Most Difficult Boss you've ever faced.

    The first time I fought 2 tanks, immediately followed by an attack helicopter on Ninja Gaiden. The fact that you don't have a chance to go back and buy health between battles just adds to the pain. The first time I got past it all I forgot to go back and save, only to die immediately in the next...

    I know they've both been mentioned already but I really can't stress enough how good the work of Iain M. Banks and Dan Simmons is. The Hyperion Cantos by Simmons, in particular the first book, is an absolute work of art, it's an incredible mix of scholarship, history and very high minded sci-fi...
