MOAR ENDORSEMENTS Seriously, it's a good time. And since it's in Manchester everyone will get to giggle as I realise I have absolutely no idea how to navigate my hometown!

Wait. Wait wait. X-23 is in this film? If so, I might actually watch it. She can be a damn compelling character when she wants to be - then again, so can Ol' Stabby himself.

Engage wild speculation! Black Canary, Starfire, Poison Ivy, Robin (Tim Drake), Brainiac, Circe, Talia al-Ghul and Beast Boy for new characters! Static and Darkseid in main game instead of crappy mobile tie-in! Storyline involves Evil!Superman and his Legion of Tools invading mainstream...

I'll usually do at least one playthrough of each variation (not necessarily just male/female, there could be good/evil too), to see if anything changes beyond pronouns - after that, I'll tend to favour whichever I had more fun with or the one with the better voice performance; for example, I...

It won't happen, but I'd like to see a storyline where you have to sabotage the heroes' efforts so they won't screw themselves over later on. Like making sure Goku dies fighting Raditz so he can learn Kaioken/Spirit Bomb, or killing Gohan in Trunks' future so the kid can unlock Super Saiyan...

I should point out that while Absol does tend to show up just before disasters happen - which is why people think of it as a bringer of doom - it's actually choosing to appear because it's sensed impending catastrophe and is trying to warn people. Poor thing's just misunderstood.

DID SOMEONE SAY PIANO?! My dad's getting a new piano this week, so I might possibly be glued to it more or less indefinitely. Particularly if the F# below middle C behaves itself like it's not been doing on the current one.

I watched a Let's Play once. I laughed. I said the game couldn't possibly be as frustrating as the guy made it sound. It's cool, I told myself. I'm laid-back. I won't be reduced to unintelligible squawking like the LPer. The game was I Wanna Be The Guy. I'll let you fill in the blanks.

Pffft. I sometimes don't even bother wearing clothes over my PJs when I go out. I might get some funny looks from people, but bollocks to 'em.

I'm going to have to go ahead and get this out of my system: NO, TEKKEN CAN'T HAVE BEEN TWENTY YEARS AGO. I REMEMBER PLAYING THE FIRST TEKKEN SHORTLY AFTER IT CAME OUT ON PLAYSTATION AND IT CAN'T IT CAN'T IT CAN'T THAT'S NOT SODDING FAIR. Ahem.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but they're both Yorkshiremen by birth, though Ben Kingsley actually grew up in Salford - which is my neck of the woods. We also have Christopher Eccleston, Emmeline Pankhurst and James Prescott Joule. Yaaay! I could cheat and list a few from my county, but I'd...

Come to Manchester! Get stabbed, beaten up, robbed and stabbed again!If you're lucky, your lovely personal violent nutcase might even throw in some more stabbies for free! On your way up from London to Scotland, I'd recommend visiting Wales, the Peaks and the Lakes. They're pretty. Also...

Yet another nomination each for both Nuke and Sky. They're both genuinely lovely people, even if Sky is a bit kick-happy. No, not like kicking from the chat or anything, literally kick-happy. With her feet. I'm still not over that. EDIT: Or maybe just pick someone completely at random...

First off, we have the common Pokémon you find everywhere. Rattata, Bidoof, Sentret, Poochyena and whatnot are bad enough, but they are considerate enough to stick to long grass. Then you get caves. And what do we find in caves? ZUBATS. EVERYWHERE. I almost wept for joy upon finding there...

It's the strangest thing. On the surface, the place is just like any other of its ilk. From the few loudest voices to the many silent observers, to those who take it upon themselves to police the area and guard against any who would disrupt it. Some rise to prominence, while others fade; new...
