Sort of on topic. As I am currently listening to their song so that I could link it here... I can't stand Plan B. I don't particularly dislike their music, but I absolutely detest the lead singer. For the longest time I had no idea why, then I realised that I'd seen him before, Ben Drew was the viscous little bastard in Harry Brown. Even though I know he's not actually that character in real life, I just can't get over it.

Me!

I just thought, here's a classic... "I came, I saw, I conquered." And something a little racy. Gay Magician, disappeared with a *POOF*! Smelly handed baker, kneaded a poo.

Named Richard Les.

Off to the shops. Good buy. Game over. Insert coins to continue.

Dead Space. My Dad's been playing it and there is a very real possibility that a 65 year old man will beat me to finishing that game. This must not happen.

I really liked "Small Gods", the "Death" series is also fantastic. I also like "Good Omens" which was a Neil Gaiman / Pratchett collaboration. Once I'm done with Robert Rankin I'm thinking I might read the "Foundation" series again.

Well, my disposable income should make up for a deficiency in talent and experience.

Eh... no. You can suffer the wrath of my Stealth Audi R10 V12.

Isn't that Demon's Souls raison d'etre?

Yeah sure. I need an excuse to play more GT5.

The 3D in Crysis is very good. It's definitely a step above the usual nvidia compatible tacked-on 3D that other FPS's get.

PS3 one for me.

A raging man-lizard with a full compliment of limbs iirc. If you ask me that's a total success with some side effects.

I know. I was being "real" facetious. I always liked the Lizard in the cartoons. The doctor who was working on regeneration yes?

Also, the plain text on the spine is/was a SCEE requirement. I kinda like it, makes everything match.

It's not a "scene" photo it's an "angsty" one! Do we know who the baddies are in this one then?

Majora's Mask. Took what OoT did and built on it. The Groundhog day elements were brilliant, it felt like the world around you was alive, rather than a bunch of bots spawning in, stumbling their way about with inadequate path-finding before disappearing round a corner and de-spawning. I couldn't count the amount of time I spent trying to work out how to make a perfect 72hours in Termina. Unfortunately, I never did manage it. Someone always had to do without. (Probably the guy on the toilet, the letter was too important to be used for your purposes, I hope you found another way to well you know...)

Why is his mask even off for that matter. Yes I know the film studio spent loads of money getting this fellow to be spidey and all that, but really, you don't see Bale strutting about with his suit on and cowl off now do you?

It's got the quote from Smooves in your post. No one will think you're an emocentric, emomaniac. I miss when the forum used to warn me that I'd been beaten to the punch.

Thing is if I say to the average guy "Spiderman looks emo." They will know that I mean moody or sulky, with hair covering half his face. If I say he looks "scene" they will tell me I'm talking "crap". It's sorta like how everyone calls a portable music player an "iPod" these days. Yes, iPod refers to a very specific type of music player, which may in fact differ greatly from what they are trying to describe, but I pretty much get the gist of what they are referring to and I never lecture them about the difference between a "media player" and an "iPod", you never get any thanks for it. Besides which, he does look emo.

Seriously? No Ico or Shadow? On the BF copied MW boxart thing... take a look at the box art for MoH and CoD games, you will see that MoH pioneered the "guy on the right looking back over his shoulder" boxart, which CoD shamefully copied. It seems there is some sort of consensus on how FPS covers should look. We've been through a phase of dude walks towards camera, with smaller vehicles / people around them. New CoD and Bad Co. At the moment we're heading into "Dude on his own looks over shoulder." territory (see new MoH and Crysis 2 for reference). I quite like Bulletstorm's "Kick you in the face while shooting a big ol' gun and leashing some other dude in the air" cover.

Just in just in case. "Me and My Katamari"?

Go farm some skellingtons.
