    Neil Gaiman Returns to Sandman

    Buy them when they come out or wait for the collection? Probably go with the latter.

    Nvidia Claims PS4 Is Only as Good as a "Low-End" PC

    If the PS4 doesn't make full use of my non existent 4K TV screen, then it is dead in the water. ;)

    HMV Tweets With Brutal Honesty

    My opinion is that they have always had twice as many shops as they actually need. I could name several town with two shops quite close to each other. That is part of your problem.

    Poll: What percentage of games that you purchase are brand new, $60 titles?

    What do you mean by older titles? I would say that (literally) a month after Mass Effect 3 came out, Amazon had it for half price. Less than £20. I will probably get Skyrim once its gone Platinum and they re-release it with all the DLC. Only games I am likely to pay full price for are South...

    Do you own games you haven't played yet?

    Gears of War 2, Lego Batman and a FIFA. All for the 360 and all brought for about £20 in total. Will never play FIFA but would like to play the Lego one.

    Do you still watch Zero Punctuation every week?

    Same old schtick. Unless it's a game I have a vague interest in, then i don't bother.

    Alan Wake Actually Sold Quite Well

    So they sold 330k which was "half the story", that means they must have given away a similar amount of copies as well. But over a million people pirated it. That is still not selling many copies is it? I think thats whats known as a lose/lose situation all round.

    I am kind if tired of the crap single player in FPS shooters

    The thing is, multi player is a piece of cake for the developers. How hard can it be to create a few maps and a few game rules? You just have to make sure that everyone can run around, shoot each other and that its mildly amusing. Multiplayers is mostly the same game engine with a different...

    The Simpsons MAY be cancelled soon

    Yeah, sack the writing staff, not the actors. My fave ... "I want to set the record straight: I thought the cop was a prostitute. ... "

    E3: Wii U

    It is really just a DS for the TV isn't it? Great for RPGs, etc. All the maps and menus go on the hand held screen and the action on the main screen.

    Warner Bros. CEO Agrees With NBC Passing on Wonder Woman

    I suspect the TV execs took one look and thought, "so whats the non male half of the TV audience going to be watching while this is on? Ah, the other side". If this had got the green light, then you could probably have expected another series of "Baywatch (now with added thong)" to air as well.

    What?s Wrong with Mass Effect 2?

    I am afraid this is video games we are talking about. It was always going to be "Independence Day" rather than "Moon". We all just gotta live with it.

    Portal 2 Review

    They should really have got Stephen Merchant to just voice the tall robot and then got Ricky Gervais to voice the short fat one.
