    Titanfall Beta thoughts.

    Its definatley not a $60 game, but the game is fun. Its very much dependant upon the maps - so far the maps are a bit stale, small, non destructible and using a washed out palate. Visually, its nothing to write home about for a PC player. Its also not very demanding for a decent PC...

    Not Sure Which Direction To Take My Life

    I think a lot of people have your experiences; not knowing how to spend the rest of your life, what area to study and identifying an avenue that appears difficult to make a living from. Writing - writing is a viable area, but even with the best writing career ahead of you, it will take time...

    Recommend me a good Fantasy/Sci Fi Book

    Ok that's something I didn't know. But I do have a couple of Lucky Starr books which have Asimov on the cover. There is similarity in regard to the writing style and story telling of Asimov there, a sort of square jawed version of Elijah Bailey with a non robot side kick. (edit)Just did a...

    Recommend me a good Fantasy/Sci Fi Book

    Asimov, Clarke or Heinlen? They have all written some stinkers especially Heinlen. Number of the Beast springs to mind as especially self indulgent as are a few of his works and of course the light heartedness with which he includes incest between some characters, although many stories are...

    Marvel Considers Johnny Depp for Doctor Strange Role

    Alexander Skarsgard seems very generic. Movie would be a failure in my book. Viggo Mortensen is a great actor, very interesting, but I don't see him doing a superhero flick, can't see him in a costume... Rutger Hauer (If he was younger)... I hate to say it.... but I know Tom Cruise can pull...

    Your GP can refer you on to; your surgeries in-house psychologist/counsellor (Most group practices will have one especially in London) Refer you to your local counsellor/Psychologist - this is the same as above, just in a specific unit Prescribe you a short dose of anti depressants -...

    Marvel Considers Johnny Depp for Doctor Strange Role

    He's going to have a silly hat, a silly walk and a silly voice. Move over Dr Strange - Dr Weird, anyone? Dr Strange should be played very straight, to have a reference point for the weirdness around him. Johnny Depp may well be able to act 'straight', but rarely do we see actors playing...
