    How to make a brilliant horror movie.

    I actually had this discussion very recently and we both agreed that the peak of horror is suspense. But constant suspense. I don't mean just from start to finish, allow yourself time for a storyline that people can become interested in, but suspense that builds and builds, and then just keeps...

    What's your favourite way to cuss without cussing.

    I usually start the first couple of letters of the word, a bit of hesitation, and then through in some nice, whole-hearted improv: "Ah sssssssshhhhizzle biscuits" or "OH MY FFFfffffraggle rock" "You're a whhhoreo" I normally only remember I can't swear as I'm swearing, so this happens a lot.

    movies full of win that noone has seen

    Well a lot of people are mentioning japanese films so... The Good, The Bad and the Weird would have to be mine. It is truly an awesome film. I'm not sure how under-the-radar it actually was, but I've never heard anyone else mention it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Zew2yWGDC8 ...awesome...

    Musicians of the escapist ASSEMBLE.

    I'm also looking for a drummer for a two-piece band if anyone's interested and lives in England. Seriously though, where you awesome drummers at? But yeah, c'mon, even if you're not in England, Fuck it! Take a risk, fly over. Let's be the next best damn thing this world has ever seen. We'll be...

    Musicians of the escapist ASSEMBLE.

    Haaaaaalright... So, quick explanations before i do. The quality is dreadful. I'm not exaggerating, I mean recorded with a phone awful. So the words are gonna be a little bit hazy, but i honestly think these are both good. Both come with vocals and multiple guitars, one with drums, so they're...

    If you could say anything to yourself from the past, what would you say?

    Hey, it's you...s'up. So yeah...the summer of 2010, dude, she fuckin' wants you. Every time she does that, she wants you to feel hers back. FUCKING. DO IT! Also, make sure you let your "best friend" move. Seriously, don't let the whole 2010 Summer thing have a weird knock-off effect where you...

    What are some gaming 'icons', companies, 'opinions' and/or famous games you hate?

    I freaking hate Sonic. I mean the character, i care not for the games. I just find him annoying and repetitive and such an obvious character. Fuck Sonic! They're TRYING to make him cool. Their damn best by the looks of it. And now that they know that some people like him, Sega are just like 'hey...

    What is your 'deepest' gaming moment?

    I'm surprised no one's mentioned Enslaved. That game was all about story! Whenever Trip was in danger I dropped everything and ran towards her. Or in particular(SPOILER) when you reach her home town and get separated, and then the Mechs show up. I found myself running full speed through that...

    Game series with the best music.

    Some of the coolest moments in games, I find, is when they use actual songs in the game. Like the airport level near the end of Max Payne 3 was amazing because of the song in the background.

    Offer a new twist on an overused concept.

    Sandbox's always have the most potential. Like one I've always dreamed of is a horror based sandbox. You start off in a city, you've just moved into a flat in some random spot of the city, you have a dead-end job. Walking to work in your office. But you start noticing things. Maybe walk past...

    I'm bored, let's make a game!

    I was working on a storyline set on a floating Island of the coast of Russia called New Moscow. It was based heavily on the general and potential "fucked up-ness" of religion. The island was controlled by 12 people, or "prophets" called The Messiah's. There were three main characters. One who...

    Most Terrifying Sensation YOU Can Think Of

    Mentally? Knowing that everything you will ever do is pointless. The world will end and everything will be forgotten. Everything you do in life will be irrelevant, everything you achieve will be useless (being an atheist of course). Life will simply end. And while you waste your time away...
