    Games you want to like but just can't

    Assassins Creed - I have started over and over again but just can't be bothered. GTA4 - I tried so hard but just can't force myself play this through. I had fun with the previous one, though.

    I liked the ending to Mass Effect 3

    I love all ME games a lot. I think ME3 was wonderful, but I have to say I was disappointed. I don't necessarily want a happy ending - self sacrifice done right can be powerful and emotional. I was just disappointed because the level of writing had been so good up to that point (Mordin Solus'...

    Accents and The Escapist!

    I grew up in SE Finland so that's where my native language accent is from. My English tends to lean towards British accent more than American, although, obviously, people can hear I'm not British.

    What makes you feel old?

    I've taught many student groups in which no one had heard about Nirvana. Was it really *that* long ago?! Sigh...

    Poll: Best New Doctor

    Oo, thanks for the hint! I live in Finland but luckily they show a lot of BBC programmes here - it just takes a while :).

    Poll: Best New Doctor

    Eccleston for the win! I have no problem with Tennant either, but I just like Chris more. He's one of my favourite actors in general, so versatile.

    Have you ever gotten a game into an unwinnable/unfinishable state?

    I messed up when I played Witcher for the second time. I solved the investigation in Vizima too quickly or in the wrong order or something - as a result I wasn't able to get the required dialogue from the private eye. Had to start the entire game over as I didn't have any saves left from the...

    How Much of a Savegame Coward Are You?

    It depends on the game, but usually I save really often. I got a bit lazy and over-confident for a while, but New Vegas soon cured that. Keeps crashing when you least expect it... I'd rather save too much than redo stuff.

    BioWare Letting Fans Choose Mass Effect 3's FemShep

    I don't like any of them. They look too young and 'pretty' somehow. But that's probably because I'm so used to my FemShep (always played the default face). At least she looks like an adult.

    Sequels you've always dreamt of.

    Jade Empire 2. I don't mean with the same characters, but within the same game universe. There were some interesting places we heard about in the game but could never visit. I agree with Psychonauts 2.

    I'm from Finland, so Finnish + English, Swedish, German (although a bit rusty) and some Spanish.

    Biggest letdown at the end of a game (spoiler warning!)

    Neverwinter Nights 2 (without any expansion pack). Ok, I have to say I didn't like the game much anyway, but the so-called ending was just horrible...

    I'm a teacher (English as a foreign language).
