Damn you From Software - this is why I love these games. So many lovely loose threads and mysterious stories to fill my brain meats with! It’s almost like I’m being treated like an adult and I’m being invited to finish the story myself. I spend as much time playing these games as I do thinking about them when I’m not…

“This Asshole” - there’s something about the grand period decay of the world of Bloodbourne combined with modern slang that’s like fried gold comedy to me. Someone needs to write a diary of their time in the game like this.

Cheers for the warning! I’ll put this on the watch later list. I also kind of got a Lovecraft feel from Dark Souls - all that cosmic darkness and other fun stuff:)

No, not singling out any single company in particular - pretty much any publisher/developer once it reaches a certain size ends up having to make shitty descisions. Therefore it’s the smaller studios that get hit - shit rolling down hill basically. Those stories are interesting, no? That’s why I mentioned that I’d…

Nicely done Rockstar. I hope his widow had a few nice memories brought up by the mention of this.

That’s a bloody shame for the employees - I hope everyone found other work and are doing o.k.. The thing that really stood out for me was that there was actually a company called ‘Shadows of Darkness’. Holy monkey balls. That’s, er, ‘extraordinary.’ Anyway, I am really surprised that after signing the contracts and…

Shhhh, don't tell anyone that none of it matters! If women/men and the rest of the world found out that attraction has very little to do with what your body looks like then...then...er...actually nothing bad would happen and people might be a lot more happy with themselves! Bravo sir - there's so much more that makes…

Yet it looks really, really nice! The combat looks simple but timing based - the combination of simple geometry but lovely texturing/lighting makes an economical and attractive aesthetic - the promise of words like action/rpg/exploration/survival are all my kind of projects. Vague? Yeah, I guess so but it's early and…

Bloody hell, those other videos are screwed up.
Well I can understand why the writer is so downhearted. I think If I lived over there I'd be pretty down about the whole situation. Pretty down and probably scared witless for my family too. (Have a mixed race family - not sure if they'd be just seen as 'black' by…

I’ll keep my fingers crossed for the chap - there’s nothing wrong with having the balls to try something different. Sometimes it works by just getting you noticed. They certainly can’t say he’s got a problem with the ‘brand!’ I’d put money on the fact that if things don’t work out with Nintendo then I am sure this…

Never ever let yourself think that ‘you’re the only one’ thinking or feeling lonely. It gets to everyone, even the most gregarious, outgoing people sometimes. In fact I’d go so far as to guess that there’s probably an army of us out there. I can however back up the statements about it not being so bad if you practice…

Then you have my pity :) Nah, only joking! It’s rather heartening to hear that there are a fair few of us out there who are all just trying to find a way through! My last little ‘be myself and to hell with anyone that judges me by what I look like’ moment was only a couple of days ago. My ex-girlfriend wasn’t the…

If only all the people involved could be so gracious - that's one hell of a farewell message for one hell of a crew. Been lucky enough to get on two of the filming days and however much of a utter prick Jeremy was/is, he was easily outweighed by how lovely and professional the crew were. A change is as good as a rest…

Well thank you - nice to know other people, however few also love the finer things in life! The bugger was that as soon as I typed that I felt the urge for cake, then sadly realised that I had none in the house. It was an emotional roller coaster let me tell you!... wow. My life is sooooo rock and roll.
Peace and love.…

I'm glad that even though some people didn't 'enjoy' it you avoided outright condemning it. I've already read a few different theories about the story and several wildly different interpretations. That kind of audience participation really makes me love games - even when they have unpleasant moments or difficult…

Yeah being single in your thirties is a bizarre experience. There's some great advice up there in that list but I don't think I'd agree so much with the slightly panicked tone that seems to be in the article. I find the best thing about your thirties (yeah, lets start with the positives!) is that I am a hell of a lot…

It's had other presenters in the past, it'll survive another change of crew. The people that actually make it and come up with the ideas are still there. As for Clarkson, he couldn't just carry on being such a horrible dick to so many people and getting away with it. I don't pay my licence fee for him to be paid a…

He was definitely starting to get on my tits so I'm almost glad he's getting fired. I don't want my licence fee going to pay him money to be a shit to the talented people behind the camera. As for this being the death of Top Gear, well you're obviously too young to remember all the other times it's had different…

Seeing how widely known this chant is (well versions of it anyway) it's kind of become like that joke that challenges the teller to come up with the most unpleasant things they can. I think it's called the Aristocrats? Not sure. Anyway, I can't comment on the people in the above case - other than most 'normal' people…

The last point about it not having an 'end' is worth remembering. For me it helped to never use the word 'diet' - it wasn't a diet, it was a complete change of lifestyle. Diets have an end, they are a 'sprint', they're usually unpleasant and difficult and never designed to be continued forever. Choosing a different…
