    What is your favorite OLD PC game?

    Doom was great, made for many late and great nights. I did however spend lots of time playing Police Quest and Hugo's House of Horrors back in the day.

    What's the one game you couldn't put down?

    In recent memory the only game I can think of is Fallout 3. I hated it when I first played it but when I tried it a second time I couldn't put it down.

    what is your town known for

    The town I grew up in was called "the tree sculpture capital of Nova Scotia" for a few years. It is also known as "The hub of Nova Scotia" which I believe is a reference to Canadian National Railway.

    Poll: Modern Warfare 2: Am I the only one who doesn't give a sh*t?

    I never played the first MW outside of the demo so I don't have much interest in MW2.

    World of Goo for one cent, or 100 billion dollars if you've got the dough

    I am assuming this is only for the PC/Mac/Linux copy and the Wii version is still $20? The site isn't really clear on that. *Upon closer inspection it is only the PC/Mac/Linux version that qualifies. Needless to say I will be picking this up today. I will probably pay $5-$10 so I don't feel...

    Worst movie you've seen in theatres

    A lot of theatres have a policy where you can request a refund if you leave within the first 30 minutes. If not just say there was a family emergency and you will most likely get a refund or at least a pass to get a "free" movie next time.

    Worst movie you've seen in theatres

    This is a tricky one. I used to work projection at a theatre so I've seen bits and pieces of just about every shitty movie in the last 3 years. I would have to say that any of the of the "_____ Movie" movies take the cake though. Epic Movie, Disaster Movie and the rest are all horrible. In...

    Poll: What was your first First-Person Shooter?

    My first FPS was DOOM. I remember it taking 6 floppies to install and after playing I spent the rest of the night scared that a demon was going to eat me in my sleep.. Good times.

    Do Quick Time Events Work?

    I don't mind them when they are used correctly. I hate having to press a button 5-10 times everytime I want to open a door but I don't mind a QTE to finish off a boss God of War style. The penalty for missing a button shouldn't be too steep either. I don't mind losing some health if I mess up...

    Playing loud music on the bus!!!

    Ugh, happens all the time where I live. The sad thing is most of the time they are wearing headphones and I can still hear the song perfectly from the other side of the bus. I feel bad for their ears.

    Your Rarest Game

    My rarest is probably Ehrgeiz for the PS1. Not sure if it was actually "rare" but it took me forever to find it. Ended up convincing a local rental store to sell it to me back in the day.
