Thanks guys! Reckon I'll hang on to them then.

I got a pre-owned ps3 today, and it happened to come with a ps move and camera. My question is, are there any games that make them worth keeping, or am I better of just trading them in for credit?

Haven't even noticed it yet, and if it ever does affect me, I'll just be opting out right away, so no big deal.

I downloaded Steamworld Dig and really enjoyed it. It appealed to the Metroid lover in me, and there was something cathartic about drilling/pick-axing through lots of rocks and collecting the gems/metals, then upgrading myself over and over. The story-side could have been a little deeper in...

It's always darkest before the dawn. And dawn for Westeros is, like the next Spring, a way off yet.

Oh man. The brilliant thing about this episode was that, if you hadn't read the books, it was a huge shock, and if you had read them, every scene at the Twines filled you with dream. I was shaking all the way through.

Definitely the N64. Before it came out, I couldn't even visualise what 3D gaming would be like. Then my local Toys R Us got an N64 for the customers to play, and it had Mario 64 on it. It blew me away.

Its a pretty good service for indie games and retro titles, albeit limited at the moment (the Wii U one, anyway) but I don't bother using it to download games available at retail. The reasons? 1. I like having physical copies, because the boxes look nice on my shelf, and because that way...

The Prince of Thorns, by Mark Lawrence. A deliciously dark book about a traumatised prince using cunning and barbarity to work his way to the top of the feudal food chain. It's told in the first person, for added connection to the protagonist, and isn't a massive tome of a book, which I liked...

I think this is kinda cool. It always bugs me when I'm writing or reading, because in English the closest term we have for being gender neutral is "they", which is technically plural, although a lot of people use it as a neutral term. We have "one" as well, but frankly, it's too posh for...

They're definitely still putting out funny stuff. The Sonic 06 video where they fought as Silver against Sonic was hilarious. I suppose its a saturation thing. They put out two vids a day, so it's easy for viewers to get very used to them and the shine to wear off. Hell, if Zero Punctuation was...

I literally flipped it as soon as I got back into my car after buying it from Tesco. Personally, I think this flippable cover thing is a great idea that more publishers should implement. They could have a mass appeal cover, with all the technical text etc, and then a cool, alternative or...

(I'm including Wii titles, because we all know what the OT meant when he/she said "this generation". 1: Spec Ops The Line (Xbox/PS3) 2. Enslaved: Odyssey to the West (Xbox/PS3) 3. No More Heroes Despertate Struggle (Wii) 4. Sonic Generations (Xbox/PS3) (a lot of people seemed to hate it...

I usually go with the water starter....because I just have, since the first generation. That said, if Froakie's evolutions look silly (as I'm already not a huge fan of how it looks) or if it becomes a water/fighting type, then I'll go with one of the others.

The Godfather. When I watched it, I could see why it was such a revered movie. But I just didn't like it. I didn't hate it either, mind. It just didn't make me love it the way people say you should.
