    Han Solo Appears in New Star Wars: The Force Awakens Teaser

    Great trailer! I'm cautiously optimistic as the film will sink or swim based on whether or not the script is good. The visuals look superb though.

    World of Warships Carriers are The Most Interesting Gameplay I've Seen in A While

    I prefer War Thunder over Wargaming's stuff, but World of Warships looks decent. I will certainly play quite a bit of it, at least until Gaijin has added naval combat to War Thunder. Zipping around in a Japanese DD or CA holds great appeal for me.

    I'm a Halo Heretic

    Halo 2 was always my favourite. CE was really good too for its day. Halo 3 was good, but not great and Halo 4 was a bit stronger than 3 I feel. Reach was pretty good for a spin-off, but they could have gone with a much darker tone overall and it would have helped hit the whole point of the game...

    Would You Be Embarrased To Show The Contents Of Your Harddrive To Your SO/Parents/Friends?

    Nope. If anything my hard drives are overly boring. Music, some pictures (mostly historical), some school/history stuff and games. Nothing interesting going on at all.

    Favorite and most fun Bond films.

    Tomorrow Never Dies is my favourite, it is also my pick for most fun. James Bond versus evil media mogul/Steve Jobs who is trying to start WWIII so that he can write lots of news stories about it. Die Another Day is also a lot of fun. As is GoldenEye.

    Got Malware? New Threat Can't Be Removed Without Breaking Hard Drive

    NSA is SIGINT, CIA is HUMINT. Therefore it is the NSA (or some other nation's equivalent), some really advanced third party (unlikely), or the Illuminati. :P

    Poll: Camping in Gaming

    It can get annoying in super arcade-y arena shooters like CoD, CS, Halo and such. Still legitimate though. In shooters like BF or especially RO, "camping" is part of the experience since the whole point is to either attack or defend a series of objectives. Sometimes I will spend an entire round...

    Happy Singles Awareness day.

    I personally think it is an idiotic day. Now it doesn't make all single people miserable, but it certainly has the effect on me. I'm rather sensitive about my complete lack of a love life at the best of times, but Valentine's Day and the short lead up to it just increases the pressure. I already...

    So... What are you doing for Valentine's Day?

    Just planning to game all day. I have to clean the house up a bit first though, things are getting dusty.

    Your thoughts on, "Well if you have nothing to hide..."

    I always find it amusing that people honestly think: 1. That the US was/is recording the content of everyone's emails or phone calls. Not true, they were collecting metadata. What email accounts were corresponding to what other email accounts. Times phone calls were being made, stuff like...

    Poll: When you message someone a few times and you know for sure that theyre ignoring you - what'd you do?

    I just leave them alone because it is clear they don't want anything to do with me. Spamming the person with messages will only make them dislike me more which isn't good. I don't do things out of spite either, so I just move on.

    EA Exec Says Its Games Are "Too Hard to Learn" For New Players

    Everything I read about AAA companies and the like makes me so happy that I no longer really care about that entire part of the industry. It wasn't any deliberate decision on my part either, the AAA industry doesn't make games for me anymore. I actually don't like RPGs. I think they're boring...

    The Big Picture: American Sniper Sucks (And It's Okay To Admit That)

    I haven't seen American Sniper, and from what I have heard about it I never will. I'm always on the look out for good military history films, but they are really damn rare. I suppose Fury was half decent, as was Unbroken (not really military history though). I have heard that the Imitation Game...

    What Type Of Phone Do You Use?

    I'm using a Samsung SIII at the moment. I'm very happy with it, so my next phone will also be a Samsung.

    How Clean Is Your House/Apartment/Dorm Room? (Single Guys And Gals)

    I keep everything really clean. Rather easy to do if you pick up after yourself as you do things rather than letting it accumulate.
