    What was your best kill ever in a game?

    The one that I remember best was in CoD4 on Crossfire. I was running out of the lower end ruined building (at the bottom of the sloping road) with a silenced USP, saw a flicker of movement from the first floor behind cover in the opposite building at the other end, fired two shots with the...

    Police shoot an "armed" middle school student

    Tell me you're joking, please. Just read what he said. No he didn't. He's saying no-one deserves to die because they waved a BB gun. The important word there is DESERVED. Entirely tangential to the actual story, because hey, someone getting killed because of a misunderstanding or emotions...

    Police shoot an "armed" middle school student

    What in hell's name makes this a situation where the kid "got what he deserved"? Stupid, panicked, scared, belligerent he may have been, and the police are trained to make sure anything like this is dealt with properly (so their response was indeed appropriate for that kind of situation), but...

    Escape to the Movies: War Horse

    Definitely doesn't start in Ireland. Weird, I got fed up after Joey's was captured for the first time, leaving my family to watch the rest.The opening scenes were like someone took every cliché about turn of the century England and glued them together, combined with overacting - the only thing...

    Charlie Brooker's review of CoD:MW3

    Feel it should be pointed out, before outrage begins, that this isn't a review, but a column, by a guy who takes the piss out of things for a living. I feel a bit stupid pointing this out, but given that the thread's titled "charlie brooker's review"... Also: http://youtu.be/wiwmYjk9ARA

    How could the British school system improve?

    Oh yeah and stop subsidising the bloody Scottish universities. It's complete rubbish that EVERYONE but the english can go there free of charge, yet they can charge 9000 quid for english students. Scotland has a population of around a million, is running out of oil, is in no way going to become...

    How could the British school system improve?

    I'm one of the posh gits at a private school, so I've got a slightly different viewpoint, but for starters scrap all the crappy subjects that don't bloody work. There's an A level in leisure studies.Ditto for things like general studies. What employer will take that seriously? There's several...

    EA Changes Origin Terms of Services, Forbids Class Action Lawsuits

    Hooray for living in the EU. But seriously, dislike Activision though I do, EA are just beginning to remind me of why we all disliked them so much. Anyone remember the uproar over Spore's DRM? And their ridiculous trash talk about CoD (I enjoy MW, not so sure about online MW2, can't be bothered...
