Alien was like that for me. I watched it when I was probably 16, and I watched it knowing it had the reputation of the most intense and brilliant sci-fi/horror movie of all time and came away unimpressed. Watched it a second time last year and thought it completely lived up to that reputation.

I'm pretty unAustralian when it comes to following cricket, so I yeah could give zero fucks about the Ashes.

I'd be interested to hear what the kids thought of the movie, do they understand the emotional moments or is it more of an upbeat film for them?

Haven't pop cultured much this weekend, except for the bits and pieces of movies on the display TVs at work.

Thats the thing that makes the Witcher 3 so much more overwhelming than other open world game. Every quest seems interesting and I want to do everything, but theres just so fucking much!

I've tried the earlier ones a few times but never got far enough to judge them, I want to get FFX remastered at some point though.

I would have chosen both, but I looked up beforehand whether there'd be any consequences to doing this and discovered I'd not get either of them, so I made the choice of Yen. I hadn't played the previous games so I had no prior connection to Triss, but dammit if the game doesn't make you feel like the biggest jackass…

FFXII is pretty much the only Final Fantasy game I've played. I never managed to finish it, but it's a really enjoyable game to get stuck into.

Well I've just arrived in Skellige in The Witcher 3, so I have a hell of a long way to go with it yet. I decided before playing that I'll be romancing Yennefer so I knew in order to get the sex scene with her I'd have to not pursue Triss, but let me tell you, I have never felt like such a shitty person in a game than…

I'm pretty confident Rocksteady or Warner Bros will be moving on to other DC characters in the same gameplay style as this game.

It's taken me so long to get used to the idea that I don't have the time anymore to truly beat these huge open world games. In the last few months though, I've finally been able to find the right mindset similar to yours, where I just play how I want to play, and my fucking god has it opened up the enjoyability of…

I really like this idea, and it's surprising more game developers don't use this sort of system. Mass Effect 2 is the only one I can think of which does this, when you're crew get kidnapped and are liquefied if you don't go immediately to rescue them.

I may be exaggerating a bit due to my personal bias of not liking him, but he just came across as the worst kind of Aussie stereotype. He just seemed like a bit of a moron.

Oh yeah I definitely think the Williams tributes were sincere, it was just strange to see such an overwhelming amount of love after hearing nothing but shit about him whenever he was mentioned.

I'm having that issue with Arkham Knight, in which they've kept most of it the same except a few random button changes that make no sense and keep pissing me off. Using the up button to enter detective mode is one, and pressing L3 to set off your sticky grenade (forgot the name of this one) is another.

It honestly is for a lot of them

Strangely enough I enjoyed Arkham Origins more than Arkham City, though it might just be because I waited a year between games to play through Origins.

Thats what happens when any celebrity dies though. Think about Robin Williams, for the last few years I don't think I read one positive thing about him, everyone seemed to find him annoying now and apparently didn't think he was ever funny. Then he died and everyone cried that he was their "childhood hero" and the…

Maybe I'm just a horrible misogynist because I never really noticed, I could see it getting tiresome if it was that overused though.

I just wish they had given that Wildling womans death to another random wildling, she would have a been a fantastic addition to the characters at the wall.
