    Let's play the superpower lottery!

    Neuronal Vampirism "The user can gain strength and energy by feeding off of others' nerve impulses. Once fed, the user can use the energy for a variety of powers, such as strength, speed, and healing and sustaining oneself. After users have fed on their victims, the victims are left paralyzed...

    GAME not stocking Mass Effect 3

    To explain what happened here, EA were giving them a terrible deal compared to the other traders, and GAME was going to suffer for it in the long run, so they basically said "Give us a fair deal or fuck off". EA chose the latter. Edit - tad more relevant discussion just in case I'm not...

    N7 Level 50 for the win!

    No doubt. STASIS BUBBLES. 'nuff said. I'm pleasantly surprised at how good the multiplayer is, perhaps that's just because my expectations started off pretty damn low, or it's just some solid multiplayer, either way, I'm impressed. As for my own experiences, usually me and my friends roll...

    BioWare Defends Mass Effect 3 Launch-Day DLC

    How about those of us who WANTED to get the collectors edition but couldn't because by the time they had the money for it it was sold out? That doesn't make me any less of a fan of the series... Actually, hold the phone, I would put any amount of money on the fact there is some rich 'tard...

    Opinions on: GAME and their site GAME.co.uk

    I wish there was a viable alternative for buying games, some high-street competition for them, I mean if we're going purely on release titles, they generally speaking do the best deal, on the high street. The only real competition they have is HMV, and given any new releases from them tend to...

    why is Origin= Bad...Steam =Good?

    Well, completely ignoring the fact it's EA and all that user agreement bolloks... WHY, oh WHY, would I want to pay £20 for Mirrors Edge/Dead Space/Burnout Paradise and then have to spend a day downloading it, HAVE to be online while I'm playing them, when I can go down to ANY shop and get an...

    So remeber SOPA......

    For those of you in Northern Ireland, 2 reasons why you shouldn't worry A) We're not subject to the Republic's laws, since we just share the Island, and y'know part of the UK B) British based ISP's like BT/Plusnet simply can't be affected by it. But yeah, signed it anyway, Internet freedom no...

    BioWare Insists The Old Republic Is Innovative

    I've lost respect for Bioware on the whole, hell if anything I'm tempted to have a 3rd stab at WoW, at least you don't get banned for curiosity. Admin: The guys up stairs have told me that the game has a few "loopholes", but they hope that the players will respect these... Programming perks...

    After the success of ocarina of time on the 3ds, would like to see a port of wind waker, majora's ?

    I'd rather not have to see more HORRIBLE DS Zelda's, so yes, more ports, PLEASE.

    15-year old Stabs Bully 11 Times at Bus Stop, Gets Away With It

    As an ex "serious" bully victim through my entire 'school' career, Primary school - 5th year and for our non Uk readers 'Elementary school through middle school', frankly I cheer for the guy for getting away with it, there were times I wished I could have done that. However now I've grown up...

    Skyrim spawns a meme.

    I used to care about internet meme trends but then I took an arrow to the knee. Just had too, definitely one of the funnier memes, cropping up these days though, and at that, I've no complaints.

    Bands you liked or respected until...

    Well I was able to listen to Muse and Deathcab for Cutie until they got involved with Twilight, subsequently I find Volvo's even more laughable, they fact they're "good" cars is irrelevant.

    BBC: Does the PC have a future?

    The simple fact is when I built my Gaming PC I future proofed it to an extent, got it 3 and a half years ago, Quadcore processor 4GB of RAM and a 9600GT, since then the only thing I've had to upgrade is the GPU (up to a 260GTX last year), and whilst I won't be able to max everything with this...
