“Fixed an issue with Minutemen quests repeating improperly”

Empirically (ha) I completely agree with this arrangement. Return of the Jedi was the beginning of Darth George’s stupidity era and every scene with an Ewok in it (and the corresponding musical theme) robs the film of dramatic weight. The Force Awakens is the better overall movie. Jedi is still perhaps my favourite of…

Yeah, it makes the Star Wars stories that do tackle the flaws in that dichotomy rare and compelling. KOTOR 2 is a subtler story than its predecessor and is very much worth playing, especially with its recent Steam patches and restored content mod.

I love how tongue-in-cheek this all is. Let no one accuse Star Wars fans of taking themselves too seriously.

I picked up Dying Light in the Steam sale, and have been having a ridiculous amount of fun with its freeform co-op play (though I can’t imagine it’s nearly as enjoyable by oneself). My question is that even if it’s a big expansion, what could they possibly include that adds to the existing gameplay? I dont reckon many…

No. Not again. The nightmares were starting to go away

I actually loved teaming up with the Railroad. Finding their secret base, living out of a basement, righting wrongs alongside a memorable team of characters; it made me feel like I was part of a post-apocalyptic Rebel Alliance.

Let it go Jim. You got a fat pay day and a lot of success out of the Niners. No need for pettiness when you’re a year gone.

Haslam has got to get his shit together. You’re never going to achieve anything if you fire your coaching staff and over-draft a quarterback every two seasons. Get some consistency on that end, and start drafting for the best players instead of star-struck idiocy, and you might just start to win some games.

For me it’s F2, F1, New Vegas, F4, then F3. I’m in total agreement that 4 doesn’t feel much like a Fallout game, but I love the world, the addicting gameplay and the characters and factions, and I genuinely enjoyed its storyline.

Even though I was a fan of both Telltale and Borderlands, I wasn’t sure how well the two would blend together. But I love this series to bits. It’s equal parts funny, exciting, dramatic and heartfelt. Everyone on the team knocked it out of the park. Possibly my favourite of 2015, which has been loaded with greats.

My top eight is mostly standard. In no particular order it’s Ori and the Blind Forest, Tales from the Borderlands, Fallout 4, The Witcher III, Cities: Skylines, Pillars of Eternity, Metal Gear Solid V, Kerbal Space Program.

Had the post been a few feet taller, the ball would have bounced off it. You can’t give the kicking team the benefit of the doubt in that situation, so I think it was the right call.

People close to me know what time of year it is, and I have subsequently ended up with $60 worth of Steam wallet. I love my friends.

I wish I liked Shogun 2, since I’m both a massive fan of the series and a student of Japanese history, but as a game I was disheartened by its comparative lack of depth. My pedigree was primarily on Medieval and Rome 1, which featured sprawling maps and loads of varied factions, cultures and units. Rome 2, on the…

On the bright side... more Fallout 4 time!

I still think we’re coming down a bit hard on Fallout 4. It’s a flawed, fantastic game, nowhere near a disappointment, delivering on everything it promised and more. Our lofty expectations for it to revolutionise its own genre may yet be met given the fluidity of its community.

Gods, Danse really is a self-righteous dickbag.

The great thing is that given how public Konami’s mishandling of Kojima was, he can pretty much dictate the terms of his next port of call. Sony will give him carte blanche to do pretty much whatever he wants, and likely throw a lot of resources his way. Hopefully that’s a recipe for a stand-out game.

I’m getting in the mood for the new film by replaying Knights of the Old Republic II, with the recent update allowing high resolutions and the restored content mod installed. That might be one of the best Star Wars stories ever written.
