    Who is the most powerful soldier in gaming?

    Captain Titus from Space Marine. He's a soldier. The best soldier. THE Super-Soldier, molded from an exceptional human being into an immortal killing machine that can chew metal, spit acid, bench press 50 tonnes and swat bullets from the air at point-blank range. Adeptus Astartes are the most...

    Ubisoft is working on at least 2 games with female playable leads. Not BG&E2, though. :(

    So what? Why does the gender of the lead character matter even slightly?

    Books you finished and just thought: "Well...that was shit"

    Soul Drinker by Ben Counter. Never in the history of WH40K has ANYONE even approached the level of abject dumbness of the Soul Drinkers. I wouldn't trust Sarpedon with anything sharper than a rubber ball after reading the first book in this series. I still don't get how he was THAT stupid...

    Piracy, simply put.

    Okay. Piracy. If I download a game, the developers don't get paid. But what if, like me, you borrow games from your friends? Or the video store? I borrow an Xbox game a week from my local video store. Does that make me a pirate? Because the developers aren't getting my money? Under...

    Skyrim fans aren't superior to MW3 fans.

    I play both. But personally I find MW3 has a superior story based on the characters. Skyrim just seems ... empty to me. Ive no clue who anyone IS. Ive played for about 10 hours and it just doesnt seem like Im goin to meet anyone I care even half as much about as I do Captain Price and Soap...

    Characters who just ruined otherwise great stories

    Lorgar in the ongoing Horus Heresy novel series. He is a wailing pussy when he should be a total badass. The author seems to have deliberately made him out to be this total moron, even to the point where characters in the story are telling him he's a moron. The author, Aaron Dembski-Bowden...

    A movie that messed you up

    Revolver with Jason Statham. That just headfucked me HARD. Like, even thinking about it makes my brain start to divide. "It's single greatest trick, is convincing you that it IS you."

    What do you do for a job?

    I work a petrol station a few towns over from me, doing night shift on friday and saturday. I also work as event staff at a horse-racing club on certain days and I'm soon to start a 9 to 5 job at a call center. I'll never ever be not tired again, but the money is worthwhile.

    Fallout: Australia?

    I like this idea, and any idea that takes games away from America and Americans. Being Australian myself, it's just so dull that every game has American voice actors and usually features New York or Washington at some point. Fallout isn't about AMERICA. It's about HUMANITY. It's got the...

    WoW: Cataclysm Cinematic Intro Blows Everything Up Forever

    I like Deathwing more than the other expac villians. Which surprised me cause I ADORE Illidan and Arthas to the point of religious worship. But the reason I like Deathwing is, they won't fuck him up by over-analyzing him. He's mean. He's insane. He's super powerful. HE WANTS US DEAD. That's it...

    Most Over-Used Plot In Games.

    Looks like I'm buying Halo Reach after all! Also, Australian officer guy in Section 8 was a pleasant surprise, even though Australia is a Duchy of the United States Empire in this particular universe. (By the way, Section 8 is actually pretty good if any of you haven't played it. )

    Most Over-Used Plot In Games.

    Also, WORLD WAR II. Like, cmon. Srsly.

    Most Over-Used Plot In Games.

    99% of the humans in space being AMERICAN. Why does everyone insist on making AMERICA the dominant nation in the world? Why can't it be Australia for once?! We're a superpower! Honest! We have our own continent and everything...

    Favourite Character of all time.

    The Doctor from Doctor Who. Possibly the most heroic character in anything ever.
