    An open letter to Electronic Arts

    Pretty much how I feel about BF3. It is an absolute blast, but it is riddled with design flaws. Quite a shame, really. Hopefully developers will learn from this (although that is quite unlikely).

    Turning 18 and you (An angsty Australian kids question for you)

    Im Australian. I was brewing beer throughout high school. When I turned 18, I stopped drinking. lol The only thing of any worth to me is being of legal age to drive. My birthday was around yr12 exam time, so I didn't celebrate either. Too busy drinking myself stupid before my birthday

    Poll: Would you mind someone Narrating your life?

    I want to say Leonard Nimoy, but there are so many good ideas listed already. I going to ponder this one. A narrator would be awesome, although it would be a romantic mood killer.

    The fleets at the end of ME3 (SPOILERS)

    Everything said so far is fairly plausible. I'm still speculating whether or not the relays were destroyed in the first place. Everyone has thrown speculation into how they interpreted the ending, although not many have realised how vague the ending was. We saw a few explosions here and...

    Poll: Do you think we're all gonna die in December?

    Just because there were only 13 Baktun's written on the Mayan calendar doesn't mean that we will all die when when the calendar reaches an end. The Mayans aren't going to write an infinitely long calendar. That would be stupid. I had a pretty good article explaining the Mayan calendar, but...

    Poll: Did you buy Modern Warfare 3?

    I bought it on Steam, mainly because it came with a copy of COD4 (I lost my old copy). Since release, I've played a total of 6hrs. 4hrs on singleplayer, 2hrs on multiplayer. I don't plan on playing any more. It was, as expected, a truly terrible game. I regret my purchase.

    I'm Still Alive, and I Want You Gone.

    This certainly makes me want an 'Aperture Science' T-shirt. *rushes to Valve Store*. Tis a pitty the shipping costs to Australia are so expensive OT: I preferred Still Alive, but probably because it was a surprise. That said, Want You Gone was still a catchy song.

    Do you like your first name?

    Angus supposedly. I hate it. Makes me cringe whenever someone asks my name. *proceeds to light it on fire* Considering changing it, but that seems like a lot of work.

    Mass Effect 3 Voice Cast Trailer Reveals New Faces

    Did they really have to add Jessica Chobot? God dammit IGN. *Angry Face* Otherwise, still sounds good :D

    Mad Scientists Craft Atomic Laser

    Firing lasers into the sun? Now THAT's science we can all understand. EDIT: Now that I've read into it a little, they aren't actually pointing it at the sun :(

    Mass Effect 3 PC will require Orgin

    That is perfectly fair. I'm just pointing out that the information is non-identifiable information about your pc. Actual identifiable information can be (and is) taken from anywhere. That kind of information is usually given to companies anyway, whether it be your ISP, your phone company, or any...

    Mass Effect 3 PC will require Orgin

    I certainly agree, however some people are straight away thinking that Origin is 'Spyware' without quite understanding that it isn't an unheard of concept. Still, I see it as 'reaching the limit', not pushing the limit. Although, I disagree with boycotting games as I don't see it as...

    Mass Effect 3 PC will require Orgin

    Facebook does collect this info. Although yes, along with Steam, you have some sort of say in what information is given. This is where I can understand where some of the Origin hatred comes from. However, how does the information collected by Origin affect users? Information is gathered for...

    Mass Effect 3 PC will require Orgin

    By that, I meant that Facebook collects information about you. Not particularly software or peripherals, but other information (ie. personal details, how the website is accessed, pages/groups that you 'like' etc) Proof: http://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/your-info#inforeceived Programs...

    Mass Effect 3 PC will require Orgin

    This was quite obvious unfortunately. It's nothing to do with Origin being 'Spyware', it's just less convenient then Steam. Also, Origin is far from 'Spyware'. It gathers information about your peripherals and software. So what? So do several other programs and websites (Facebook included)...
