Hey, when I went to school, one of my best friends became a mother when she left at the age of 16, so... well, you understand my confusion, right?

Yeah, one time I got mad at my boyfriend for his internet porn use. Not because he’d he’d been searching for porn, but that he’d gone searching specifically for big tittied teens* or something, using my laptop logged in as me, and the stuff he’d been browsing had popped up as autocomplete while I was trying to show my…

This is all so.... unexpectedly nice and pleasant! All clean and bright and spacious!

I don’t play Left 4 Dead 2, but I would like to shoot Valve’s servers, even though it would probably make them even less reliable.

What’s with these pointy bits at her hips, as well? I mean, no matter how muscley a person is, they don’t end up with spikes for hips, do they?

I loved that machine. If I had the space and money, I would totally buy one. You should see it when someone plays on the harder levels!

Yes, it was in secondary school - GCSE level, which are the basic qualifications you leave school with at the age of 16.

Speaking as someone who grew up in England and studied history at school, the version we got taught... I don’t know if you’d call it jingoism, but it was definitely “cleaned up”. You only get to study Britain’s successes, the positive side of the industrial revolution and great inventions and great engineering - the…

I don’t know if it’s your kind of game, but have you ever tried playing “Sherlock Holmes vs Jack The Ripper”? I know, the title sounds ridiculous. It investigates the prostitute murders, takes a look at some of the leading suspects, comes up with some conclusions. It’d be interesting to know what you think of its…

Kind of wish they’d asked him about this stuff before making the game. Kind of wish they’d asked historians about stuff before making any historically-placed games. Kind of wish devs could make games that highlight just how awful things were for people in the past without fear of being judged by modern standards of…

The point is that Nintendo support’s basic stance is to treat the customer as a criminal unless proven otherwise, which is not what you want right after you’ve been beaten up and had your stuff stolen, are feeling fearful and just want to play some Pokémon (because nowhere in the universe feel safer than a Pokémon…

They totally aren’t. You contact them about losing your console or it breaking, even if you have the serial number and everything, and it’s “oh you have no proof, go away”. If you get mugged you have to provide a photocopied / scanned police report with numbers and ids and everything before they’ll even start to…

So.... you install it and then it goes ahead and broadcasts stuff to other devices in the vicinity on its own. It sounds like a human-readable botnet. It’s really suspicious!

I hope he gets a Wii U for Christmas.

Well, I’m an old-time Elite fan. I played it in the 1980s on C64, in the 1990s on PC, and kickstarted and played a lot of Elite Dangerous. And let me tell you; I think that the game isn’t the problem, it’s just that you’re just not cut out for it.

I think these things might be exactly why the WHO came out with that report earlier this week. They seem such a distant cry from actual food!

Heh, yeah, I grew up on the old 1980s and 1990s versions of Elite, so pretty much every game that’s been made since seems small-scale to me, and No Man’s Sky sounds totally doable.

I found Spore great, until the point where my creatures formed villages. Then suddenly it was like I was trapped in this other game which I didn’t like, without an option to go back and return to the fun parts of the game. So I exited. And a few weeks later, uninstalled it and didn’t look back.

Terrible that the whole show gets taken down like that. Kill Me Baby is such a mad, funny little series. I just feel terrible for all the other people who worked on the show, who’ve had their work taken down and tarnished just because of this one incident.

Would like more features that cater for folks with large libraries; tools to help you find the game you want when you can’t remember its name, tools to let you see your achievement progress over a number of games easily, tools to let you see recommendations from your friends without having to click through to the…
