    When were you a gaming Badass?

    Back in my BF2 days, I was in the top 100 Anti-Tank players in the world. That felt pretty good. That and I used to be the "guy you could leave alone" in BF:Vietnam. I used to be placed in strangely placed flags. i.e. flags on the flanks or at the back. Flags that would be easily taken as...

    How Massive Multiplayer Should Work

    I agree totally. I find that was a particularly bad problem in SW:TOR. So many of the fun games are group orientated. This meant if you didn't play in a Guild, you would miss out on a huge segment of the game. GW2, I can play without relying on forming a team to play with. It almost has a...

    The artist in thee

    Love the new Self-Portrait Laby, especiall the slight angle on the face. :D

    RAM: Old and Gray

    Very well said Nuke. The only sound deconstruction of the situation I've heard in a long time. Oddly enough change is always occuring and yet it's what people fear the most, hence its cyclical nature. A norm is never truly set in concrete in any community, social or professional. Furthermore...

    Stereotypes - true and false

    I wish we did run around in Top Hats though. That'd be awesome. False: We're not all descended from criminals. True: But most of us are. EDIT: Just to confirm, I'm English but have lived in Australia for most of my life... So I'm half n' half.

    Avian Armageddon: An Epic

    Embracing ones insanity makes for the best scripture. Fairly sure Luke said that. Fantastic work, Joe! Fun read.

    The artist in thee

    Love it, as always. I make a fantastic antagonist. Does my ass know no bounds?

    Games that make you just relax, and feel good

    Definitely. Or puzzle games like Crush. For some reason I just hit my zen when puzzling.

    Bittersweet games

    I agree with you 100%. I loved the Battlefield games and BF2 just seemed to be the culmination of all the brilliant elements from each game brought into the latest generation in a Modern Combat Package. Playing in a Squad of Clan match was intense. General pubbing however was pretty poor...

    Poll: Military service

    Huh, fascinating - your compulsory service is making those of us who don't have such systems (in my case, Australia) feel like lazy bastards. Certainly not a wuss for not wanting to be a front-line grunt. Don't most services offer mechanics, engineering, and other specialist training? I'd...

    Doomsday Arcade Hits Sydney - With Pictures

    Now why on Earth does the commercial capital of Australia get a sand storm when Perth is practically in a sand dune and we have never, as far as I can recall, had a problem? Australian weather sure can "cut sick" when it wishes.

    CloverBrawl: Greatest Fan Made Movie Ever Made?

    That.. is... so.. kick ass. My awesome detector has blown. It's so wonderfully cheesey, silly and graphic that.. It just works. That whole "it's so bad, it's good" argument spring to mind.

    Ever bought a game you never heard of and end up with a new favourite game

    Hells yeah! Freelancer was THE Best Impulse Purchase I could of ever made in my gaming life so far. I reinstalled it recently and played the daylights out of it ... again! It's the only game I have replayed in it's entirety.

    Have you ever done this with games...

    I do that all the time. Often during the last act, chapter, scene, boss of a game I'll just put it down and just forget about it. Then I'll come back to it and forget my motivation for coming this far, or I get clumsy with the controls. I've been getting better lately.. But that's probably due...

    Unexpected Gamers

    Interesting you should say that. Me and my friends were often dismissed for having poor social skills or general loner qualities for even mentioning we were gamers. Hell, me and my best friend kicked up a joke about creating the Western Australian Hardcore Gaming Society, consisting of me.. and...
