    Zero Punctuation: Alone in the Dark: Illumination - Like Left 4 Dead But...

    This has all the makings of a good 'Smiths'-song.

    Civilization: Beyond Earth Review - Analysis Paralysis

    I've played 3 games so far and I quite like the game. The tech-web is appropriate to the futuristic setting and allows you specialize much more than is the case in Civ5. I do wonder if every sponsor has a favourate affinity. ARC seems to lean towards Harmony in the games I played, don't know...

    Big Huge Games Returns With Civilization-Inspired Strategy Game

    Including the mobile part in the title would have saved me a click. That's some good music right there.

    Mojang Joins Microsoft; Founders Notch, Carl, Jakob Leaving

    Microsoft is crazy. What is their plan? Make a Minecraft sequel and hope it becomes as popular as the original? It's like hoping you win the lottery twice. Also, with Notch and the other founders gone , all Microsoft basically bought is the 'Minecraft'-name.

    What shows do the UK and other Europeans watch?

    There are a lot of detective and crime series on tv here (Belgium/Netherlands). You have some british ones like Endeavour and Midsomer Murders; there used to be some german ones Der Alte and Tatort but they seem to replaced by scandanivian series like Borgen, Wallander and The Killing. Other...

    The Pickup Artist #2

    On display behind a window? Reading all the comments, this feels like one of those "unlikely things to hear ..."-fragments from Mock the Week.

    Sex scenes that actually add to the work

    Lars von Trier's Antichrist comes to mind. The sex scenes are not sexy in this movie. Definitely worth a watch. It is a bit dark and brutal though, so beware. Also Mulholland Drive by David Lynch has a (in)famous sex scene. Now that is a good movie.

    Poll: Escapist: Can you drive a Manual?

    Of course I drive stick. It's the normal way of driving, automatic is a rare exception in Belgium (and probably the rest of Europe). That might change with the arrival of hybrids though.

    The FIFA World Cup 2014 Thread

    I don't know about Argentina vs. Belgium. Even with all that good football Belgium still needed the extended time to score and only one by the smallest goal difference. They aren't very efficient in front of the goal so far.

    The FIFA World Cup 2014 Thread

    Argentina vs. Switzerland is about to begin. This could be an interesting match with Argentina not showing great form yet in this tournament (although their last game was promising) and Switzerland playing very competently with the players they have. Switzerland has no real superstars in their...

    The FIFA World Cup 2014 Thread

    I do feel a bit sorry for the Mexicans, it's never pleasant to lose let alone if you were leading 10 minutes before the end of the game. But it really is their own fault for leaning back after they scored the 1-0. Holland was able to push them back and to create chances. About the penalty, it's...

    The FIFA World Cup 2014 Thread

    I'm dutch so I had fun watching the world cup so far. In general it's far more entertaining than 4 years ago. I hope we can poke some goals in the Australian defense in a couple of hours.

    Welcome to Doel, Belgium's Doomed Graffiti Village

    This is very close to where I live. The worst thing is the uncertainty, since the 60's there has been plans to expand the port and since the 90's more concrete plans for a dock where the village now is. This has caused people to move out and no (or very little) people moving in. A bit...

    Project Beast is actually Bloodborne, Revealed in Trailer

    Looks nice, good to see they've gone a different path on the aesthetic front. I wonder what this game will bring gameplay-wise. I see potential to explore the survival-horror genre.

    Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain New Trailer at Sony Conference

    I thought it was some piece of shrapnel too. It does seem like it differs in size from scene to scene so that's a bit weird. Can't wait to see how it turns out.
