    Gamers' Advocacy Group to Fight Anti-Streaming Bill

    He's basically saying that even if the bill passes, it's too much effort to track down and charge every person who is breaking this law, but I doubt that's the way this would be enforced. I think it's much more likely they will target a few high profile cases, and very publicly rake them across...

    Snatcher Sequel Confirmed... As Radio Drama

    I will admit that I am a big fan of radio dramas. The lack of any visual component means that the writers are generally pushed to write higher quality stories, as you don't have the ability to fall back on pretty pictures and flashy effects to distract the audience. In my opinion, a well done...

    Bathroom walls, truly they are a source of awesomeness.

    The weirdest one I've ever seen was a drunken apology from some guy to his girlfriend. Written in a cubicle. In the mens room. Did he think she was going to come in and read it there? How drunk do you have to be before that seems like a good idea.

    Upcoming Doctor Who Novel Based on Unfilmed Douglas Adams Episode

    While I do love the Shada story, I'm not sure that someone new re-writing it is such a good idea. I'm a big Doctor Who fan, and a massive Douglas Adams fan, I've seen the Tom Baker version and heard the Paul McGann version. I just feel that a remake of the story by someone who isn't Douglas...

    Super Moon approaching tomorrow

    I'm actually more concerned about how the journalist who wrote that article seems to be giving the wild conjecture of a single self-proclaimed astrologist a lot more weight than the NASA scientists, astronomers and other experts who know what they're talking about and are all saying the same...

    Worst timing for a power outage

    Quite simply, Mordin was about to sing. That bit is so awesome, it blacked out the local area for a few hours.

    Burglar Busted for Posting Crime Scene Photos on Facebook

    Is it wrong that I saw the title and hoped the pictures it was talking about were CSI style crime scene photos? I would just love if somebody broke into a house and just left a load of police equipment lying around.

    How would YOU end the world?

    If I was some sort of supreme being, and bored of the Earth, I'd just go somewhere else and start again in a new solar system. I'd also remember to turn the lights off before I leave (The lights, in this case, being the Sun).

    Most epic song line ever

    It doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right. It makes no difference if you're black or if you're white. All men are equal till the victory is won. No colour or religion ever stopped the bullet from a gun. Gary Moore - Out in the Fields

    Deadly Doctor Who Villain Escapes to the Frontier(Ville)

    Am I the only one that can see Zynga's evil plan here. By placing the Weeping Angels into people's farms, they ensure people can never take their eyes off their farms again. Players will have to stay on Farmville 24/7 or risk becoming their next victim. While I'm not that thrilled at having...

    Question of the Day, January 5, 2011

    The only big game I bought at retail last year (that I remember) was Mass Effect 2. I had to go round 5 different games stores before I found one that had a copy for the PC, and when I finally did get it the second disc didn't work, so I ended up getting a digital copy from EA. This is why most...

    First thing you drank in this year

    In a surprising display of class, it was a glass of champagne with a Hibiscus flower in it. Yeah, someone got an interesting present at Christmas.

    You have to get a christmas present for your avatar.

    What would I get for Friend Computer? Probably some debuging software. It needs it. In return it would probably execute me for treason, but oh well. Edit: Alternatively it might give me something from R&D. Same overall effect, but I die in service to Alpha Complex instead.

    mass effect 1+2's BEST QUOTE

    A few of the lines during Mordin's loyalty mission always stand out for me. "No tests on species with members capable of calculus. Simple rule. Never broke it." "Have killed many Shepard. Many methods. Gunfire, knives, tech attacks, once with farming equipment, but not with medicine.
