    Daily Mail Makes Up More GTA Crap

    Why does anyone listen to what the Daily Mail has to say? They may aswell just publish the headline "DON'T GO OUTSIDE!". What I wonder is how this French kid set fire to three cars before anyone actually called the police. Where were his parents, neighbours, any responsible adult with half a...

    Poll: What if Apple made a video game console.

    If Apple made a console it would cost a million-billion pounds, be only a few molecules thick, have hardware powerful enough to see into the future and no-one would make any games for it...ever. P.M.

    Poll: Best Indiana Jones Movie

    I can't decide, they're all pretty good films though I think I'm gonna go for Raiders, only by a nose though. I felt that the baddies in KotCS weren't bad enough, they weren't dark enough. The fact that Cate Blanchett's accent kept slipping from Russian to British was a bit of a let down...

    Pikmin: A Gamecube Retrospective

    I have to say I agree with you, it was a good, fun game that I unfortunately only ever rented. It's actually pretty tempting to buy it now, damn. Otherwise, good review, pretty balanced and without resorting to Yahtzee-ism. Well done, I'll definitely keep a look out for more of your reviews...

    ECA Launches Action Alert Against Videogame Legislation

    The plus side to this would be: People could no longer complain at Game Developers for making games that are being sold to kids. You'd have to blame the stores that sold it to them because they'd be responsible for checking ID and such like. This is really the kind of thing we should be doing...

    The Gears of War 2 exclusive footage

    Wow, looks like Epic have added a whole lot of nothing to their ideas. Honestly, what was the point in adding that little sight upgrade to the Lancer. It does nothing for the player! The addition of more enemies would actually really appeal to me, if they were actually killable... So from...

    If You Were A Game Character...

    I'd be a generic NPC. That way I could be in almost every game. P.M.

    Upcoming Prince of Persia Title A Sharp Break from Trilogy

    I'm not sure how they're going to continue the story from the trilogy. Unless it's a prequel. Or has no connection to the previous stories, which makes them almost redundant. The story did end with Two Thrones. For me, no more Sands of Time = no more Time Powers. So the new game mechanic seems...

    Games you wish you HADN'T bought...

    X3 - Reunion: Good god it was boring. Total waste of £5 but at least it gave me something to moan about on PulseBox. P.M.

    If EA Launched a Console

    If EA launched a console they'd rename and re-launch it two weeks after release. Then they'd do that twice more. Also, everything would break and they'd release peripheral after peripheral until everything sort of worked and only broke occasionally. EA aren't known for great games, or great...

    Buying games from STEAM = ripoff?

    I don't think STEAM is a rip-off, not for me at least since I live in England and all prices on STEAM are halved due to the exchange rate. This makes it brilliant for buying games when they're on offer. For example, STEAM had a weekend price-cut of PREY, they dropped the price to around $9.95 so...

    Poll: Do you use walkthroughs to help you during a game?

    I'll only use a walkthrough if the games has become an adventure into frustration and annoyance. Much like Max Payne did in the restaurant level. Otherwise I generally play games without walkthroughs, it just ruins the fun. P.M.

    Poll: Health Bar or Regenerating Health, what is your stance on this new trend?

    I prefer health bars and healing stations/ med-pack things. I think that if this was combined with location damage then it would be even better. The only beef I have with regenerating health is that it's pretty un-realistic in certain games. Take CoD4 for example, if you're hit by a grenade...

    WH40K Roleplay Thread Ending; "Who Knew?"

    Excellent ending. I was hoping to survive the whole thing but alas, I was deaded at the last second. Ophelia became a bit of an NPC in the end so I kinda forgot about her, oh well. Brilliantly played by all :) I'm really looking forward to the next one. P.M.

    WH40K Roleplay Thread Ending; "Who Knew?"

    Kalidian was thrown to the floor by the force of the explosion, he had been making his way toward the hold, hoping to catch up with Rain before things got out of hand, unfortunately it looked like he hadn't been fast enough. Kalidian picked himself up and began sprinting in the direction of the...
