    New Nintendo 3DS XL Here in Time for Valentine's Day - Update 2

    I bought the Super Smash Bros 3DS (with game preinstalled) in November from the UK Nintendo store and that didn't come with a charger either, however they shipped it with a free charger and case. I got a USB charger for my old 3DS a while back (before I lost it) and I predominately use that...

    Surprise! Digital Downloads Have Bigger Carbon Footprint Than Most Discs

    This doesn't factor in patches, which on-the-shelf games are generally behind on since they wont just replace the disk every time a patch is released. This isn't so much an issue with console games, since patches are added onto the hard drive as opposed to on the core files of the disk, but for...

    Poll: Most useless key on your keyboard

    q, because fuck that letter. In all seriousness, Caps Lock is useful for a lot of people who are less computer savvy since they seem to think that it's the only way to write in capitals, or that it's just what they are used to, so I can understand its existence. Besides, it's in an ideal...

    Poll: Escapist: Can you drive a Manual?

    I'm much the same since I drive manual better than automatic. I think it's because the act of changing gear keeps me more focussed; I get bored not having to change gear in an automatic.

    They should have just eaten it when it was still fresh.

    Subs over Dubs: Which Anime turned you into a 'Purist'?

    Depends on the anime. DBZ is god-awful in Japanese, especially since Bruce Falconer's music is a lot better and Japanese Vegeta sounds like a whiny little *****. However, GTO is terrible in English. Onizuka completely looses his character in the English dub but keeps the insanity in the Japanese...

    What unusual animals have you eaten?

    The following are meats that I have eaten separated into categories that I deem them to be appropriately in, even if not so "unusual" in my eyes since others so far in this thread/friends have considered them unusual: "Mainstream" meats Lamb - my favourite I've had an Iranian breakfast...

    What is the best turn-based combat system you have seen in a game?

    I played that one. It was alright, but yes the original Dual Strike game was a lot better, both in terms of game play mechanics and in terms of story. However, the later game was harder than the original, which was a nice challenge but a bit ridiculous at times

    What is the best turn-based combat system you have seen in a game?

    This, although my experience is from playing Advanced Wars Dual Strike (DS version). Really liked the combination of resource management, character buffs/debuffs and tag-team effects. The game had a good amount of diversity in the unit choices with enough rock-paper-scissor counters to make it...

    French fries, how do you guys eat them?

    WITH MY BICEPS. On another note, if I eat chips out I'll likely just add salt if they aren't salted well enough (they usually aren't) and exclusively use HP Brown Sauce, which most places don't serve in England (and absolutely no where outside the UK), or just have them straight. If I make...

    Amazon UK Wii U sales rank jump by 875% following Xbox One reveal

    But if the set top box feature were to work within the UK wouldn't that mean that mean it could potentially replace the Sky or the Virgin (presumably whoever gets the contract deal with Microsoft first) box, meaning you wouldn't have to pay the box, satellite (for Sky) and installation fees?

    Poll: Does steam work at your Uni/Tafe/College?

    I'm at UCL (University College London) and we get a rather annoying issue. Steam works perfectly fine, we can view the store, download, even play online, the only issue is that we can't play LAN. This applies to anything we play, not just games on steam itself. It really screws things over for...

    Poll: Do you drink alcohol?

    I like a drink and used to have a beer casually at home every few days to chill but now I leave it for social encounters. Having a Muslim girlfriend makes me feel bad to drink at home so I don't out of respect, and to be honest I don't miss it that much.

    The worst argument you've ever heard

    For a minute I thought he was going to say "I used to be an atheist like you, then I took an arrow to the knee". That would have made a rather interesting conversion story ...

    What are you craving?

    My girlfriend, or should I say friend with benifits, to start taking me seriously. Being back in London. I miss London
