Given Tim's record, that last comment of his surprised me. I've gone off CAD, now the only thing that makes me genuinely laugh webcomic-wise is the fantastic xkcd.

[This may turn into a general discourse on the military, be warned!] [Second warning: before I am flamed by pacifists, while I am pro-military, I am anti-war. There is a difference.] The military changes you, for better or for worse. I was only a cadet, but after my five years there I was...

The original C&C or Total Annihilation (which I still play). Happy Days.

A sucessor to Freelancer would be nice - they set it up at the end for a sequel that never came

Uplink? One of the most atmospheric, nail-biting games I've played, despite (perhaps even because) being essentially a text adventure written by one bloke in his bedroom.

I've been playing since it was released and still haven't finished it! I am a massive Elder Scrolls fan, but to be honest I wouldn't be sad if Bethesda called it a day now. The games, particularly Morrowind are now in the hands of the community, which is doing things with the game that I...
