    Mine is awfully boring, and the actual picture is just the draft sketch of Leda from Leonardo da Vinci's painting of her and Zeus as swan. It's got a big list of "things from tumblr to show that one person who doesn't have it" as well. [http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/411/unledpicture.png/]

    Ever read a book so bad that you actaully stopped reading?

    Janice Galloway's "The Trick is to Keep Breathing." I was supposed to read this for school, along with another of her books, "Foreign Parts". While both were dull, confusingly written, and plotless, I managed to force my way through Foreign Parts.

    Finally, a Game for Girls!

    Right, I am going to go and investigate this game personally, in the name of science. I am a girl, so perhaps this will truly be the perfect game for me, and I won't have to spend money on Assassin's Creed or Uncharted or anything else. I doubt it.

    Annoying Video Game Quotes Forever Etched into your Memory

    "Dwarven crafts- fine, dwarven crafts, direct from Orzammar!" Dragon Age Origins. "You want to look at the book?" Assassin's Creed II. And the worst one, in my opinion, that I can remember, is "GET UP ON THE HYDRA'S BACK!" from Kingdom Hearts II.

    How is 9/11 viewed internationally?

    I can think of quite a few people I know in Scotland who really don't care that much any more. I mean, it was a horrific incident at the time, but it's been ten years. I saw a list recently of ten more significant things that have happened since then, and I'm inclined to agree. Arab Springs...

    Trailers: Assassin's Creed: Revelation - Animus Edition Unboxing

    I know it's all feeding consumerism and that, but I am buying this. Immediately. Wait, £70 for the PS3 edition? ...Fine. Fine. I'll bite. I want this quite a lot.

    Favourite Gamecube Game?

    This counts. This counts because it was my first game. Ocarina of Time. I spent so long playing that, so many afternoons...

    Poll: The Dragon Age 2 hate

    I was just going to say this, but someone beat me to it. I don't think I have anything to add, just that I agree with this- I liked Origins more, but I really enjoyed 2.

    The protagonist from the last game you played turns out to be your biological Father/Mother

    Hell man. Six new siblings I didn't know about, considering the last game I played was Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, and it seems quite a few people here were also playing it. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that Ezio's gotten around. I take this spin on the matter however- Mum, how the...

    You now ARE the last thing you killed in a video game.

    Damnit. Cesare Borgia. That's no fun- we've got the Archdemon in here. It's better than some, I guess, but I don't really want to have an incestuous relationship with Lucretia Borgia. I'm a girl, and she is definitely not my type.

    The protagonist of the last game you played wants too have sex with you.

    Considering some of the downright awkward things people have had to put up with, I'm pretty pleased I got my male Hawke. He's all right, I suppose, but very nice. Hey, and before that it was Ezio. Looks like I was have having a good streak. And before that... Uh... a character from...

    The Item to your immediate right

    Hedgehog. Huh, could be useful. For a little while.

    Pro-Gamer Gauntlet: Q.uick T.ime E.viction

    Loving this. I'm sure I've had a dream like that... Also after playing too much Assassin's Creed for too long. Funny little expansion!

    Trailers: Assassin's Creed: Revelations: E3 2011

    WANT. Buying now. Can't wait for November. Want it now. It's pretty, and awesome looking, and... Blargh. Want it now. I was going to buy it anyway, but this... Well, made me want it now, oddly enough.

    PSP games you would recommend?

    The 3rd Birthday. Bought it recently, and I'm enjoying it.
