    Male victims of sexual violence in games, comics, movies, whatever.

    I think there was an episode of that AWESOME sci-fi series Sliders where they ended up in an alternate universe (surprise surprise) where women basically ruled the world and men were kept like cattle purely for selective breeding. While the men arrived with big dopey grins, it eventually led to...

    Male victims of sexual violence in games, comics, movies, whatever.

    In the film Super, Rainn Wilson's character is raped by Ellen Page's Boltie sidekick persona. And yes, it is rape. It's quite an uncomfortable scene to watch in a "dark comedy" tone.

    Molyneux Reveals Why Fable 3 Will Piss Players Off

    Sounds to me that Molyneux has finally looked at the Fable franchise, compared it to other fantasy games and said "Ah, wait, it's not as ground-breaking as I thought it was going to be!" Whatever changes are made to the game, I'm sure they can only improve upon a rather decent series. Sure...

    What music would you make your children listen to?

    I'd like my kids to listen to the same music I do when I have some. I love my metal, all the way from glam to black (I probably wouldn't introduce them to the really heavy stuff till later on) but I'd also like them to listen to the stuff my dad played me - War Of The Worlds, Led Zeppelin...

    Poll: Fallout: London must be made.

    I think Fallout: London could only work if in the Fallout Universe Vault-Tec are an international corporation - or if there was a British equivalent. But I do think that the London backdrop would be great for a post-apocalyptic game. I know people are saying that Hellgate London was a bit pap...

    Marijuana legalization

    In regards to people's questions on the substances that marijuana is sometimes cut or laced with, sometimes weed is dusted with cocaine/crack crystals - normally then referred to in my area as 'skunk'. I've also known of hash blocks to contain plastic residues which can then be inhaled when...

    Marijuana legalization

    In the UK, cannabis plant seeds are legal... you're just not allowed to grow the plant. Odd double standards yet again! On another interesting note, a well-known campaigner for the legalisation of cannabis in the UK has suggested that ALL drugs should be re-graded based on the impact they have...

    Poll: Who here has actually played any Fallout game besides Fallout 3?

    I completely forgot about Fallout Tactics until someone else mentioned it! I didn't get on with it so well, but one of my brothers was really into it

    Poll: Who here has actually played any Fallout game besides Fallout 3?

    Fallout 1 and 2 were brilliant games for me as I had a computer from the dark ages for a long time. They had a fantastic sense of humour to them and the gameplay wasn't too hard to get used to. Fallout 3 wasn't quite as good but it brought back one of the best franchises and it has some stunning...

    Best deal you ever got on a video game?

    When Fallout 3 came out I bought it the day after release for just under £24 - bear in mind its usual price was at least £40 and it was going for £28, but I also work at the shop so got staff discount! I also picked up Gears of War 2 for £18 about a month after release... game bargain hunts are...

    Your funeral song?

    I'd go for The Highwayman by Johnny Cash and possibly Highway To Hell by AC/DC as people left, just to spook them a little :P

    Poll: Are you a student?

    1st year university student... in Education Studies with Creative Writing. Popular course, even though its just nice talk for "Future Waiter".

    Missed Gems, Great films (and games) that have been largely passed over

    Pretty much anything in the Tartan Asia Extreme range is worth a good look at - Battle Royale, Dead Or Alive, Bangkok Dangerous, Audition... they're all superb film experiences, especially looking at them from a film-makers point of view.

    Poll: How Many Of you Gamers Smoke Cigarettes?

    I've been on and off cigarettes for the past half a decade, and always find that I end up getting back on to the little bastard cancer sticks after witnessing the coolest character in the film/game of the year happily chain-smoking and getting all the women!
