    Poll: Would you join the Space Marines?

    I reckon that, as an Imperial Guard player, I should join the Guard instead. I wouldn't want to or anything, God no. I just think I deserve it for routinely sending scores of men to their deaths during even the most minor skirmish.

    What does it take to kill a death claw?

    If you're getting the deathclaw on its own then, if you're tough enough, good with unarmed weaponry, and have the Ranger in Novac teach you the palm strike move then with luck you can knock the thing to the ground and beat it to death while it languishes there. This is a bit riskier than...

    Game cliches you hate

    I know it's not technically a cliche, but there are a good few answers here which take liberties with the definition of that word. I hate the brutal shattering blow immersiveness gets when everything of note that happens in the world happens because you say so. I know it's something of a...

    Whats you favorite Zero Punctuation episode? (As of now)

    The one where he admits he wants to make love to me is best. I'm still waiting.

    Moments in games that make gaming what it is

    As the title of this website suggests, gaming is about escapism. If I punch someone randomly in real life then the chances are good that they'll hit me back hard, the authorities will get involved, and/or everyone will think I'm a lunatic to be avoided. Punch someone in a game and, depending on...

    Also Italy, because of Sicily.

    What is the hardest country to invade?

    I have to go for the USA. Maybe if you were super good friends with Canada and/or Mexico it'd be a little easier. Come to think of it, the ol' Russian "retreat into our endless territory and let the weather do for them" tactic could work a treat in Australia too. Combine that with no land...

    Most random thing you've overheard

    The best thing I ever overheard (though I suspect it was an in-joke rather than on the fly) was this exchange: Gent 1: Would you like me to describe what I did to your mum last night? Gent 2: The only thing you'll be describing is a parabola when I boot you out the window.

    How do you react to blood?

    It all depends on the amount - a small amount doesn't inspire much of a reaction except getting me thinking about the biology of it, that is unless something needs to be done about the source in which case I'll concentrate on that. With a pint or more, I react like most people, with a massive...

    Anyone else hate British cuteness?

    Er...yes it is. What's your point? I desperately hope you don't need the distinction between Britain and England explained.

    Homosexuality Is Unnatural

    When people say homosexuality is unnatural I suspect what they mean is "it's not evolutionarily selected for", because cooked meat, medicine, houses, clothes, electric lighting, transportation and farming can all be said to be unnatural in the strictest sense and people don't persecute...

    Most Bland game ever.

    This is a bit of a weird thread. Half the answers seem to be taking a popular and original game that introduced a lot of new ideas and then blaming it for the legion of unoriginal rip-offs that got made of it. Prime example: calling Gears of War generic. I don't know what people think the...
