I love Dr Who, but I'd be the first to admit it has an appalling track record when it comes to female writers. To date the new series has had exactly two episodes written by a woman (the Daleks in Manhattan two parter). I'm a guy and frankly would love to see more episodes written (and directed) by women, for the sake…

Are The Lost and the Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony considered DLC or expansion packs? In either case, I thought Liberty City became a far richer and more interesting place for them.

This whole thing reminds me horribly of the movie Brazil.

First thing I'll do is install the game, which should give me plenty of time to peruse the map, wondering "Where to first?"

There are many many secret and cool things to be found in that game.

EA dangled that carrot in front of me for two years, and shame on me for buying into it. The same week I finally learned I was supposed to get my full time status (which was probably BS anyway), they laid off 270 people, myself included. Now I'm trying to find some other industry to train in that has a higher survival…

Does anyone know if PSN use will still be free for PS3 owners after the launch of the PS4? Or is everyone going to have to start paying for PSN when the new system launches?

Sorry if anyone else mentioned this, but: Max Payne 3 had a great multiplayer mode called Payne Killer - basically two random players would play as Max Payne and his pal, Raoul Pasos, and these two characters were harder to kill and had better guns, but all the other players (six or eight I think) would be trying to…

I know quite a few people who fail that test as well...

I did : ) He gets shot at the end of the first film, and has the brace and the car at the beginning of the second (presumably he jury rigged something shortly after killing the final guy in Mad Max). The car gets destroyed during the events of that second film. Notably there's no sign of 'Dog' anywhere so far in the…

Yeah, I know what you mean. It serves no purpose other than 'looking cool.' Now I'd buy it if say, some time after the bombs fell, there was a tsunami that washed ships ashore or something, but otherwise it makes no sense. Nothing I know of nuclear war would cause sea levels to recede. If anything sea levels might…

I think he'll bring something new to it, hopefully something good. I like hardy a lot and think he's a good choice. It'd be really ballsy of the game makers to get Mel to do the voice work, but I doubt that will happen. Despite his horrid behavior, I still kind of like (actor) Mel, mainly due to Get the Gringo.

Well for gamers and movie fans of a certain generation (namely mine) this is actually really exciting news for us. Mad Max is ripe for a video game adaptation; the setting is just perfect for it. However, to be fair, a lot of us were psyched for Colonial Marines too, and that didn't turn out so well.

The second one is amazing, in fact it's very different from the first. It's a huge influence on many contemporary film makers, and set the tone for the post apocalyptic action genre. Now the third film is a bit more toned done and kind of cheesy, but I actually really like it; however I admit to being in a minority…

Oh man, I really hope you're wrong there. I great mad max game would be so awesome, and the thought of it ending up like Marines is unbearable.

I'm quite looking forward to the new film, and Hardy's take on the role.

There was an original trilogy of films in the late 70's/early 80's. The first one was a society dealing with post peak oil, and the second two were set in the aftermath of world war 3. They are basically the genesis of the post apocalyptic action thriller. I for one am really excited, but of course it depends on how…

They'd be mad not to make that a central concept to game play.

Oh yeah, I actually got shivers when I heard the car revving in from the distance.

Based on his look and the car I'm wondering if this is set just prior to The Road Warrior?
