  1. Alan Moore signing

    Also, for any Moore/League fans: Too Klein's book design work is as pathetically wretched as usual. I just don't understand why Moore keeps using him. Sure he doesn't some nice lettering and his logos aren't bad (although Alex Ross pretty much half-designed all of the ABC stuff) but GOD ALMIGHTY -- his graphic design is horrendous. I mean absolutely fucking horrendous. He apparently has two fonts installed on his computer (he favours Times New Roman), and has absolutely no eye for detail or composition. Sorry, felt like somebody, somewhere had to say it. (Am I turning into Toblix?)
  2. GTA Chinatown Wars

    For anyone looking to buy this (like me), Game are selling it for £20, delivered. http://www.game.co.uk/DS/Action/~r335915/Grand-Theft-Auto-Chinatown-Wars/
  3. Movie/TV recommendations

    People like you make me sick. What's wrong with normal names for children?!
  4. Final Fantasy XIII'th story sucks

    Or more specifically, it's FFVII. As a FF fan, I feel it's my duty to defend a series. Final Fantasy XII was absolutely awesome, for example. In fact, considering this is the thirteenth entry, they've had an amazing amount of success. Of course, the themes do remain the same, but...... you just noticed? I think everyone is waiting for them to remake VII, though. Maybe that's what this is?
  5. Books, books, books...

    Got to say that I loved The Forever War by Joe Haldeman.

    This is clearly four medallions from Fate of Atlantis.
  11. Game Covers 2.0

    I already feel weak under the pressure of trying to "beat" their covers... There really is some totally awesome stuff there.
  12. Miles Edgeworth: Ace Attorney - Investigations

    Yeah, it kind of limits the role to... prosecution
  13. Game Covers 2.0

    Yeah, it's just a shame to see some great covers ruined by by poor design choices... Surely the thing they were trying to avoid? But you're right, there's some truly beautiful stuff there
  14. Windosill

    I hate these types of "games". Randomly click around, move to the next level. There's no "puzzles" to be found here.................... However. Unlike most of these boring flash games, this one also happens to have astoundingly beautiful graphics. Take my $3 sir! Edit: Damn you, sir. The remainder of your game wasn't quite as good.
  15. Game Covers 2.0

    I love these things. The Kotaku stuff is lovely for the most part (some remind me of science books from the 70s...). The GAF Collection also has some lovely stuff, but a lot are marred by poor font choices. For example: Love this, but why-oh-why mar it with that "college" font? Still, awesome cover aside from that. If I had the shelf space, time and energy, I'd definitely print a few of these off and use them over the originals
  16. The OTHER Pirate Bay thread...

    It's back!
  17. Movie/TV recommendations

    It's OUTSTANDING. Shame they're not all on DVD yet. It's Curb Your Enthusiasm's older, smarter brother
  18. Comment on the Fresh Indie Games Compendium

    Played the demo of And Yet It Moves and I thought it stunk to high-heaven. I didn't get very far (it crashed) but if the whole concept is one of "ooh, you can rotate the world" then I'm seriously disappointed.
  19. The OTHER Pirate Bay thread...

    Any news on the conflict of interest thing, or is that going to take months? Pretty decent article on the whole thing so far (only short): Everybody lost

    I love Ben There, Dan That!

    Space Giraffe By: Llamasoft Available: XBLA Marketplace/Llamasoft website (new PC version) Synopsis: Tempest reinvention.

    Oh I see... It was a story within his review. I just figured he'd gone mad. Whoops.
  25. The All New XBox Gamertag Exchange Thread!

    Atlantic time? Is that the same EST? I just accidentally discovered that you can type "What time is it <location>" into Google and it tells you the time there... pretty neat! Apparently 9pm GMT(BST) is 6pm AST.
