  1. Five BioShock sequels

    I can see where the argument for being a game about good and evil rather than good vs evil arises. Even if this is the case, however, I still feel that it comes across so one dimensionally that it was just cack handed design. I don't want to discredit the team, BioShock has a great atmosphere and tried some new things, I just feel it didn't push them far enough.
  2. Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. I felt horribly let down by the demo, but I couldn't not buy it being the enormous Banjo fanboy that I am. And it's wonderful.
  3. The final episode of Consolevania?

    Bummed in the gob. I'm so proud of the lads for all that they've done, even if it is really the end. Truly the greatest Video game show of all time. I just watched the episode after struggling to download it. Brought a tear to my eye. What Rab said really rang true, and I'm very happy that they decided to end on a high. I love them very dearly and have never felt so much respect for gamers before. Rest In Peace, Consolevania, you had a good run
  4. Fallout 3

    I don't know, I mean, GTA IV had plot holes and stuff too but maybe they weren't as evident. Perhaps they were more jarring for you, even Oblivion's brokenness wasn't a deterrent in the slightest for me. As for weapon degradation; I found that most of my guns lasted ages, long enough to not be a huge annoyance and I had the same, fairly frequently used baseball bat for fifteen hours. I agree that the landmarks are far too condensed in one corner, I'm at thirty hours and I've only just crossed to the eastern half of the map for the first time. The voice acting and scripting were great for me, I didn't notice the same actors time and again like Oblivion and the sheer number of characters and dialogue options mean I would have accepted something far less varied. Really thought Bethesda did a mark-up job on that front. Oh, and the skeletons are probably from long ago, before the Vaults were opened up again.
  5. Nifty browser games (inc. Flash)

    Off-Road Velociraptor Safari It needs a very quick plugin download, doesn't require browser restart.
  6. Feist

    I've only ever seen the TV show, and it was called "The Moomins" here. It was creepy, but also sort of cool.
  7. Good episode guys. Also, n0wak, Lost Planet was awesome!
  8. The iTunes download doesn't work for me. Poop.
  9. Free Range FTW!

    OK, it was definitely /b/ I first saw it, but I've never actually seen the original before, thanks
  10. What... The... Fuck...???

    I love that logo. Also, I shopped the goty.cx banner to be "emerging" from Goatse, but I'm not suer how appropriate it is to post.
  11. Free Range FTW!

    I remember seeing that! It was part of an fairly hilarious email exchange. It might have been here actually. Either that or /b/ (not saying this place is remotely like /b/).
  12. Sonic: Unleashed

    Another Consolevania fan! Holy shit! Anyway, that diagram is dead on, Nachimir. I played the demo of this game and this is much more a string of QTEs than PoP, didn't like it one bit. Horrible, horrible state Sonic is in now. Sonic Team are forced to produce this shit every couple of years and I really feel sorry for them, they don't seem to realise that Sonic is meant to be about platforming as well as speed, one of my biggest issues with what I played of Unleashed.
  13. Free Range FTW!

    That's good. I always have to deal with every spider in the house, my sister screams when she comes within five feet of one and can't sleep if there's one knocking around.
  14. Free Range FTW!

    Spiders are awesome, so yeah, should have let him go. They go ion instinct, don't they; and how do you know he killed them in the first place?
  15. What... The... Fuck...???

    Typical, old style Tory nonsense. He's an arse, does nobody remember how he insulted the entire city of Liverpool? I'm sure a fair chunk of his votes were from people "just doing it for the lulz".
  16. Listening now, this is a nice little surprise!
  17. Crayon Physics

    Haha, Crysis is not a very good Video game. Then again, I did have great fun punching sheds.
  18. New people: Read this, say hi.

    Yeah, I was worried I'd contradict myself a bit there. Always go slightly mental when I find a new online home.
  19. Movie/TV recommendations

    I didn't think it was that grim, it should have been even grittier in my opinion.
  20. New people: Read this, say hi.

    Yeah, these are the only forums I've ever joined that I just read through threads with no will to reply. Usually it's either post or ignore, but I've become a bit of a lurker.
  21. What... The... Fuck...???

    I've been to London twice, but I hated him before he became mayor. I can't believe a good old socialist like Ken was uprooted by this jobs for boys arsehole that plays the fool.
