    Your favourite game < 100 megabytes

    Without a doubt it's Calm Until Night Time. Only 40 MB and it's an awesome little ascii RPG. Unfortunately it only works on Windows 7 so most people probably can't play it but it's a fantastic game and I'd recommend it to anyone who has Windows 7. It's just a little indie ascii game but the...

    Unskippable: Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes - As Narrated by Jack Bauer

    If you actually imagine Ground Zeroes as a standalone episode of 24 then it's quite a good one!

    Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare Gets Microtransactions

    Am I the only one who thinks that this is a step in the right direction for EA? At least the microtransactions don't give people anything that can't be gotten through normal gameplay. I agree that this is definitely worse than microtransactions to buy cosmetic items only (e.g. Dota 2) but...

    Thanatophobia (heavy stuff inside, ye be warned)

    This has never been something that I've worried about. The thought of my friends and family dying is much scarier to me because I'll actually be able to feel the emotional pain. I guess the way that I've avoided this fear is to just come at it from a purely logical point of view; when I die I...

    Poll: Would You Push The Button? (Moral Dilemma)

    No. I wouldn't kill any of my family for a million. Coming at it from another angle though; if it were a billion dollars and my little sister was in the tent then she'd have my consent to push the button. I'd expect that my mum and dad would consent too.

    Poll: For four grand, would you flash a non-sexy body part?

    For four grand you could have a full body picture of me wearing nothing but pink dildos strapped to my hands. And I'm by no means financially struggling...

    Poll: Final Fantasy VIII: Party Composition

    As long as you have Squall and Zell it doesn't matter. Zell can solo omega weapon if you set him up correctly and spam Punch Rush and Booya. Squall's not as powerful but it's a lot less tedious to use his limit break than Zell's. Go with whichever set of pixels you think's the hottest.

    How did you figure out what you want to do?

    I'm almost 25, currently living in London and I think I've just about decided that I want to go into game design. It's almost ridiculous that it's taken me so long to come to this conclusion because games have been my only consistent hobby/passion since I was 3. I did really well in school...

    Should we (as a species) make one language our "go-to" language?

    A Polish doctor tried to do this in the late 1800's but it never really caught on. The language was called Esperanto, which mean "one who hopes" and there's a documentary on it called "The Universal Language". Most languages have been created naturally over time, this one was created logically...

    Is it rude to ask someone how much they make?

    In England it's considered rude but I think that it's because "it's always been rude" rather than anyone actually being offended by the question. Generally if I'm in the pub with people and it comes up, no one has any real problem with saying how much they earn. FYI - Just over £40k

    Why I Think The PSVitaTV is a bad Idea for Sony:

    I can only see it as a good thing. I haven't got a Vita but I have a PSP and I can distinctly remember thinking "Fucking hell, I wish I could plug this into my TV and play Crisis Core on the big screen". They won't be competing with home consoles, it's not like anyone would be put off buying...

    Poll: Would you Rather

    This is a cracking 'would you rather' question! I'd go with gender sneezes. I can often (but not always!) stop myself sneezing by holding my nose & breath and I can often (again not always!) make myself sneeze with strong mints and sunlight. In fact, I think if someone offered me the...

    Tap water , do you drink it?

    I live in London and the tap water's pretty awful. I used to live in the north of England, where the water is much cleaner. Despite this, I always drink the tap water here because it's obviously not going to do me any harm. The moral - Man the fuck up and drink the water. You'll be fine :)

    Most violent movies you've watched

    A French horror/thriller called Martyrs. One of those films where when it finishes everyone in the room just sits completely speechless and watch the credits role. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWZKDCAbEts I don't actually know how to do the spoiler cover thing so instead...

    Poll: I'm going to make a game, what do you think of my idea?

    Surely that's assuming that the plan is to make some money off the game? If he just wants to create a game in his spare time and then put it on the internet for free then I say go for it.
