    Would you trust Sony with alternate universe Spider-Man stories?

    Wow, a warning for making a joke (at no one who'll ever read its expense) - a full five days later, great mod work there, great work, especially "low content" given it's three times the length of both posts above and below. Speaking of low content, I'm done here, the LoadingReadyRun guys...

    AVATARS

    I don't have a copy of my old one, so if it's gone, it's gone (and I quite liked the little southpark version of me with a 1up shirt - the same logo I have embossed on my shoulder....ooh, that could make an interesting new avatar). I do dislike it when they change though, I get used to...

    FBI: 1 Apple:0. The iPhone has been cracked

    it was a custom firmware to be signed to the serial number of the device, which they could load in house to minimise risk of code leakage. That is very different to a generic backdoor baked into the software.

    FBI: 1 Apple:0. The iPhone has been cracked

    I don't see how this is a win for Apple as many point out. They weren't asked to make a generic backdoor, they were asked to adjust one phone to gain access - now the FBI have managed to use an exploit on that phone, doesn't it follow that all iPhones are potentially exploitable in the same...

    DC Comics Will Soon Reveal Joker's True Name

    Isn't the red hood Robin, therefore this former red hood Joker is Robin? (I'll admit my DC knowledge isn't all that up to scratch) Also, wasn't one of the Jokers an insane Batman, sent back from the future, forced to kill his own parents to create himself and thereby went insane and became...

    Are Relationships Hard Work?

    Not hard work, if it's hard work, then, whatever you may think you're in, it's not a great relationship, the two are just too different, it shouldn't be hard work, it shouldn't even be a thought, a great relationship is exactly that. At least, in my experience, the best relationship (and...

    Report - Nintendo to Halt Wii U Production by 2017 - UPDATED

    I hope we do get Zelda, it's the only reason I picked up the console, and will make it the first console to not get it's own Zelda game (I think?) I mean, I've enjoyed the windwaker re-release, mario kart 8 and mario u but, Zelda's what I want

    I got a written warning for saying this at work?

    Maybe they're unpleased with your performance and are building a paper trail to dismiss you?

    PSVR Price finally announced: $399/?399/?349/?44,980

    Is it still the cheapest once you factor the camera and extra controller / move controllers in? I mean, if you had a PS4 and a controller, you're still talking Oculus money to get one? Need to see what the outcome is, how it racks up against its brethren in terms of tech and performance, I'm...

    A Cosplay Defense of Skinny Girls

    Agree with the sentiment of the article, however two points at the end I disagree with: Directors don't cast movies of Batman vs Superman size, that's why you'll see a whole list of casting agents in the credits, something of this backing there'll be producers interfering in choice too...

    Spider-Man Finally Revealed in Latest Civil War Trailer

    I think the spiderman suit looks like unfinished CG, like, the texture layers not been added or something (looks quite cartoony). Whilst watching the trailer, I did have a thought:

    Bruce Willis to Star in Death Wish Remake

    I can imagine the trailer: "He's Died Hard, been Expendable and had A Dame To Kill For. Now, this summer, watch Bruce Willis fulfil his Death Wish"

    Microsoft Wants Xbox to be Upgradable Like a PC

    Maybe we have him wrong. Look at PC, you can play a game on the top end gpu, mid range and cheap. The game plays on all three, but looks shinier on the better, so there's room for a modular console. You still have the console "it's an xbox game, it'll work on my xbox" but then you get to put...
