    Games you just...stopped playing

    A fair few for me, I just seem to have a massive problem with seeing a game through to it's end. Sat on my shelf waiting to be finished I have: Dishonored - I really enjoyed this when I first got it but I seemed to just get distracted by other games, I'm constantly telling myself "I'll come...

    Liscenced music you have found though video games

    Burnout 3 had such a good sound track and introduced me to Rise Against (who are now one of my favourite bands), New Found Glory, Autopilot Off and a few more who I can't remember off the top of my head. Such good music for driving like a lunatic, doing traffic and ramming your opponents into a...

    Factions You Wish Existed in Skyrim

    I'd be really interested in seeing an arena style faction, similar to the pit in Oblivion. I really enjoyed fighting my way up to the top of the contenders and facing off against the Arena Champion. I'm pretty sure that there is some data related to the bloodworks and other arena style things...

    UEFA Champions League

    Agreed but I think Fergie will go for the jugular on this one, we sat back against Man City last season and look where it got us, this season we took it to them a lot more and got the result. Not saying throw caution to the wind but I think playing for a 0-0 against Real Madrid would be foolish...

    Poll: How often do you guys read?

    Alot more than I used to since I got a Kindle for Christmas, it helps me relax before going to sleep a lot better than games or watching TV ever did anyway. Plus the cheap cost of the e books on amazon means Im happy to just pick something up on the cheap if it looks vaguely appealing. Picked up...

    UEFA Champions League

    As a Man Utd fan I'm delighted with our result, especially after hearing a lot of people saying we were going to be embarrassed there. An away goal will serve us in good stead as I can't see us keeping a clean sheet at Old Trafford to be honest, it's going to be emotional having Ronaldo return...

    How terrible a person am I for wanting to opt out of invasions in Dark Souls?

    I can see the appeal to wanting to opt out of the invasions and during my first play through I was very rarely human anyway so didn't experience that many. But when I was human I have to say the tensest moments in that game for me were the first few invasions I faced. Just the message on the...

    Skyrim without the dragons: my khajiit's quiet adventure.

    I've been doing this with my latest character (female Dunmer using Illusion and Sneak skills , great fun making enemies attack each other before sneaking up on the remaining one and slitting their throat) and I have been having a blast. I'm playing on Xbox so no mods for me unfortunately but I...

    What is your favorite iphone/casual game?

    I love Fruit Ninja on my iphone... had it for ages and I still always come back to it when I need to kill some time on the move.

    Splurges, bad game buys, impulse buys.

    I bought the Witcher 2: Enhanced Edition for the Xbox on impulse but that ended up being a wise move... I also bought Sniper Elite: V2 on impulse... that was less of a wise move. Played it for a few days after I got it and could never get into it. Shall attempt it again at some point.

    Nex XBOX 360 update, what are your thoughts?

    Haven't really looked into properly, downloaded it last night and then jumped straight into the game. My initial reaction however was "Yay, more adverts!" I'll nose about it properly and see what it's like at some point.

    Poll: Your Longest Gaming Session

    Probably about 20 hours playing Final Fantasy XI. I was 16, just finished my GCSEs, parents had gone on holiday for the week, only one thing to do in that situation... I probably played that game 12 hours a day for the whole time the house was free. Totally worth it. Could never do it now...

    Games that defeated you.

    There are at least 2 giant rings on each act of each level, so it is possible. Doesn't mean it's not a giant pain in the ass though! EDIT: In response to the OP, the dang blasted Sonic The Hedgehog game on 360 the others have already mentioned... Dear god. Why did I buy you? Just...

    If you could get thousands of gamers back on to one dead muliplayer game, which game is it?

    This all day long. I loved my time on that, would love it even more now that I have more time to put into it. Plus I miss my mithra :(

    Words that gamers use that make you CRINGE!

    It irks me when people use the term "rolled" to describe the process of making a character in RPG games: "I've rolled a Paladin for this playthrough." You haven't rolled anything, this isn't D&D! No dice were involved, just say you made a Paladin, or chose to be a Paladin or something. On...
