    Poll: Favorite form of alcohol

    I likey my 'real' ales. For sheer ubiquity though can't beat a bottle of dog (using the nickname because I'm curious if it's actually common enough for anyone to know what I'm on about).

    The last song you listened to is now your country's national anthem.

    Spike in a Rail from the Bastion soundtrack... Yeah, I think I could dig that. God Save the Queen can take a hike.

    Why Jim Sterling's Mario Kart 7 review is bullshit.

    This. OP, get it sorted.

    Your current job and you dream job.

    Current Job: Unemployed and unhappy about it. Dream Job: Freelance writer, specifically writing about either games and gaming or motorbikes. Both are great loves of mine. I'm under no illusions that it's an easy way to live; I know that the hours can be long, the work inconsistent and the...

    Games you know are bad but still want to play

    +1 For Damnation. That game sounded so good when the first bits of information were coming out.

    What is your favorite game from the GameCube/PS2/Xbox Era?

    I really should say MGS 2 or FFX given what the ol' memory card says about hours logged (well that and the fact that I can't bring myself to sell them... or the PS2 itself for that matter). I have to go with Zone of the Enders 2 though.

    Jimquisition: Steve Jobs and iOS -- Videogame Related

    A good episode and one that is very pertinent to gaming, as much as it could just be written off as a rant. Gaming on iOS (I'd include Android too) could be the way forward. I personally think that dedicated gaming handhelds are gradually going to be inched out of the marketplace. iOS games...

    Duke Nukem 3D Reloaded Delayed

    Why get a remake when this: http://eduke32.com/ exists. All you need for it is $5.99 for Duke3D from GoG. Then bam! All the fun of Duke 3D (sans DOS) in delicious 2011-tastic 3072x2304. For the record I have no investment in eduke32. I just think it's really fun.

    Who is the worst Final Fantasy character ever?

    I see Squall taking a lot of flak. I mean yeah he's a bit of an emo, but the dude is supposed to be 18. I can kind of forgive that sort of of bull given that most people are a bit self obsessed at 18. He's also a little interesting beyond normal hero archtypes especially as the game goes on. I...

    Indie Mecha Combat Game Hawken Looks Incredible

    Looks good, I can see where all the Japanese Mecha biased people are coming from, they are cool. In a game though I want a mech to feel like a big machine, not plodding per se but not moving like a human/ninja, there's enough 1st and 3rd person shooters where you can move like a human...

    Rumor: Grand Theft Auto V Codenamed "Rush"

    If this does not turn into a game of Geddy Lee's little publicised carjacking and murder spree I will not be happy.

    Creature Caster Masters: It Begins

    It's quite funny, but I can see container/inventory jokes getting old if they keep getting used
