    Who would you be Left 4 Dead with?

    I'm going to go for fictional characters here: 1. Gordon Freeman - He is good at both fighting AND science, so what more could you want? 2. The TF2 Heavy - Awesome fire power and entertaining one-liners. 3. Rincewind - Expert at running away, so we'd always find our way to safety.

    Poll: What's your favorite tf2 class?

    Is this..? Mon dieu! Anyway, my favourite class to play as is Soldier, although Heavy is my favourite character.

    What book got you into the fantasy genre?

    Mine was probably The Lord Of The Rings, although my interest has been rekindled more recently by A Game Of Thrones from the 'A Song Of Ice And Fire' series.

    What do you drink?

    I mainly drink coffee, although I drink water with meals. I also try and have a glass of smoothie every day (any flavour will do!). As for alcohol, I seem to mainly drink cider these days (and that tends to be limited to just one bottle a week, after my cricket match!), although I enjoy gin...

    Poll: Which L4D character do you use?

    I'm usually Zoe, because I only tend to play with my brother and friend, so there's usually a computer character, and when that computer character was Zoe, she always seemed to take the hunting rifle :/ Naturally, this wasn't cool, so I decided to be Zoe so the computer character would use a...

    What map do you hate but everyone else seems o love?

    I've never liked the TF2 map cp_Steel, I've just never really been able to get into it even though my brother and my best friend think it's great! Although, I guess this could be because I never seem to be on a good team so lose most of the time! I'm surprised that 2_Fort is least popular so...

    Favorite Futurama Quote

    Anything said by Zapp is gold! I also like the Robot Hell song. '...and onto lighter news, the city of New New York is doomed.' Said by the newswoman, or maybe Morbo, in the episode about the garbage ball. The stuff Farnsworth mumbles about his atomic supermen when we walks off screen is...

    Jimmy Eat World are awesome, I went to see them play live last year... Anyway, 'tis hard to pick an absolute favourite band, but I'll give a few: Incubus Millencolin NOFX Queens Of The Stone Age Rise Against Dropkick Murphys I'm sure there are others that I could substitute into that...

    Zero Punctuation: The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena

    I quite enjoyed this review, especially the crisp / chip references, and the end bit was pretty funny too. Not his best review, but definitely not his worst! As many people have mentioned, I also noticed that he spoke faster than some of his previous videos: it's really obvious when you watch...

    Looking for new games to buy

    I would recommend Psychonauts, a game I found extremely enjoyable, although I'm not sure how difficult it is to get hold of these days (I think it's on Steam, but if your computer isn't connected to the internet, then I guess that rules Steam out!). I agree with the Warcraft 3...

    What is your Left 4 Dead survival time so far?

    Best I can think of is about 7mins 30 (ish) on the hospital level from No Mercy, although it was me, my brother, and two bots, so it wasn't ideal... Our tactic was to stand by the lift until the double doors at the end of the main corridor were smashed open, at which point we headed there and...
