The whole locking out used games thing was supposed to be on the PS3 apparently. If it was even seriously considered then the massive backlash against that rumour caused them to remove it. I think Sony are generally clever enough to not seriously piss off their customers that much...

You can get all 9 seasons of the X-Files for quite cheap these days. Sure the last tow or three seasons dip in quality a bit but it is definitely worth the investment. And in a similar vein, try Fringe.

It's a toss up between Survivalist's Rifle and Dinner Bell, going on my skills and preferences. Seriously, Survivalist's Rifle + AP rounds = dead Deathclaws. Although I cannot deny the sheer effectiveness of YCS/186 in that field too.

Recently, Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker. Seriously, when you spend half an hour whittling down a Custom T-72A, only for you to die just as the commander pops his head out...no. Just...no. I think I screamed at the TV less when I repeatedly got killed by Peace Walker Type II.

I am not the best person to ask as I am a self-confessed fanatic of the series (I own Survivor 2 for godsakes). I'd say for a non-fan that Resident Evil 4 would be the go to entry in the series. If you want to sample the classic approach then play the REMake. If you want true classic then...

I went out with a girl who had pretty bad bipolar disorder for nearly two years. There were a few attempted suicides to be talked out of on her part. So yeah...

My first name's Ross, so it's hardly an issue and it rolls of the tongue easily considering it's only really one syllable long. Despite it apparently being really common in Scotland in the 90s there was only ever one other Ross in my year at school and even then it was high school. Though...

Fringe. More people need to watch Fringe since it's probably in danger of cancellation. Think of it like a science fiction counterpart to Supernatural. Or, if you will, The X-Files for the 21st Century (you should also get The X-Files on DVD). It has a tightly plotted mytharc, cool (if...

I'm pretty sure there's more than five games I'm really looking forward to this year but I'll try and narrow it down. BioShock Infinite: The news of 1999 Mode has made me want this game even more than I did before and I wanted it a lot. The Darkness II: Honestly, The Darkness is one of...

I have a few personal examples of this. In no particular order: Devil May Cry 2: Argosax the Chaos is much harder than The Despair Embodied. Tekken 3: Ogre is much harder than True Ogre, at least given my play style. Some people seem to find True Ogre hard to beat. God of War: The...

Installing all of New Vegas' DLC seems to cause some serious balance issues if you make it to level 50. For example, Deathclaws are deliberately hard as fuck to survive let alone win a fight with. Now, at level 50 with most of my skills at 100, wearing Elite Riot Gear from Lonesome Road and...

My name is Ross, I come from Scotland, I'll be 21 at the end of the month and I've been up all night trying to finalise my Honours Project proposal document and putting it off. Other than that I'm a massive nerd that somehow juggles a small but decent social life. I obsess over story...

Well, Naughty Dog is an obvious choice for me and given how much I love the Just Cause games I'll probably support Avalanche in anything they do for the time being. However looking at games-per-developer ratio, Neversoft are well represented. I've missed only five of the twenty games they've...

I was about to say Destruction Derby but then I remembered my Game Boy's existence and with it Star Wars, which is as old as I am (released in 1991).
