    The End is Nigh, tf2 is getting an update: Jungle Inferno!

    This is how I imagine every Spy thinks they play like, but in reality, it's probably close to 1 in every 10 of all Spies actually achieve anything of worth. Doesn't seem like it stops people believing in themselves though, which explains the team comps.

    New game releases - Week of October 22, 2017

    Wow, I forgot Just Dance was a thing. Used to be a blast on the Wii at Christmas and New Year's time. I sorta miss it, but not really considering the fact that I broke my foot with the bloody thing...

    Ireland's Hurricane Ophelia more annoying than previously suspected. Yay.

    Do you think that people outside of the USA are catching up on fatness?

    This is how countries collapse. Not because of people being afraid to fight for their country against totalitarian aggressors, but because they were too fat to get out of their chair to fight for said country.

    No offense but I get annoyed when someone changes thier Username and Avatar photo.

    I was gonna write something like this the other day, but forgot. you see, I would like to pick a different profile picture, but the thing is, I feel like it's almost like getting plastic surgery - You look like a completely different person by that point. So yeah, I think I might just forget...

    When a Game Concludes Juuuuuuust right

    My idea for a good ending would be -The antagonist has something happen to them, though it doesn't necessarily have to be "their just dessert", just SOMETHING has to happen to the story antagonist, and it has to be either shocking or satisfying to see. - No happily ever afters, unless you...

    Any good (opposite of evil) necromancers in fiction?

    I was about to mention Discworld, though it's called "Post-Mortem Communications" instead. There are a few instances where they do a bit of it; in the Lipwig novels they have to call up the ghost of a wizard who had been dead for millennia, so they could translate an ancient tablet(or was it a...

    Lovecraftian Game Mechanics

    Don't Starve, a survival game. I don't know if this one technically counts, but the game's bizarre art style, as well as the unpredictable nature of enemies in that game, tend to reinforce the idea that you are in a world which has a loose grasp of reality. Whether it be scrawly, winded hands...

    What is the worst game you have ever played?

    I recently bought Warhammer 40k Space Marine for the PS3 for about ?1.50, and I still feel ripped off. Dull. As. Bricks.

    First impressions on Total War: Warhammer 2 look promising

    Seems so far from first impressions, that the new Total Warhammer game is looking like a solid entry to the series, though there are concerns about the fact that it's more of an expansion pack rather than a new game. What do you guys think so far? Also, yes, I get that previews tend to be...

    Trying to get a cheap PC, slightly above par with current-gen consoles (PS4). Could anyone help me?

    I have been a console gamer since I've been born, but I'd really like to move to the PC platform, due to games like Hearts of Iron and CK2 having piqued my interest. Could anyone give me any advice as to how much that would cost me? So far I've found good guides on Reddit, with one of the best...

    Poll: You Wake Up One Day and Find Out that You Have Become the King of England...

    Personally, a lot of the kingdom's funding would be invested into education and the arts. Also, deliberately piss off the common people, so a revolution would kick off. Why? So all those jackass nobles who think they're better than everyone else would get what was coming to them. EDIT: Oh...

    PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Selling Limited-Time Cosmetic Crates and Keys to Fund Tournament Prize Pool

    You know, watching this, it's made me realise how easily battle royale games could be turned into e-Sports. Why no developers haven't tried this before is baffling.

    70 hours into Civilisation IV: Anyone got any tips?

    Currently playing Civilisation 4, have about 70 hours played, and I find that when I play everything always feels out of my hands. Crap just seems to happen, and when I play a game I never find that I'm able to adjust my path, I either fail or succeed. Can anyone who've played the game...
