    Favourite Voice of All Time

    This, so much this. In fact, sod the speaking, favourite voice ever. :)

    OKCupid Asks Firefox Users To Support LGBT Rights, Switch Browsers

    Honestly, I doubt my choice of web browser is going to change anything major, but I'm glad they at least made me aware of it. After all, it's nice to be in the know about things like this. I do find it a tad invasive, but I can understand the reasons behind it and, as far as I can see, it's...

    Escapists, what are your deep dark gaming secrets?

    I spent an entire summer vacation playing (and mastering) Megaman X4, then the next summer vacation playing through Azure Dreams, followed by the next summer vacation where I played through Breath of Fire 3. I believe those have been, to date, some of the happiest times in my life, because...

    Poll: Are you comfotable naked ?

    No, given that I have a certain problem, it's actually much less physically comfortable for me to be naked. If that problem wasn't there, I'd not really mind.

    What Did You Do For Your Most Recent Birthday?

    I do what any Irishman would do. I go out to the pub, get as rat-arsed as possible and have a damn fine night with my pals.

    Remastered / Re-released Games - What would you want to see?

    I'd love to see Ring of Red remade, but that's only because I never got to finish it. In fact, in many cases, even if they weren't remade, some of the old PS2 era RPG's would be nice to play again.

    Claim a planet, then what?

    I'd look for a planet that would be similar to the world seen in Princess Mononoke. Covered in dense forests, filled with giant sized intelligent beasts and natural magic, both beautiful and quietly peaceful. My friends and family would be welcome to join me in my wooded wonderland, and in...

    Is it wrong to not really hate any game?

    Often enough, I've found that people don't really hate a game. They may dislike the game and some other aspect of it then pushes them to the extreme edge of that dislike. In some cases, fans of games or series have completely put me off the idea of ever watching or playing them. I don't...

    It's the gamepocalypse, you can only save one game!

    I'd either pick Red Dead Redemption (because I think it might then spur others to create wonderfully epic video game dramas) or, simply for replayability, a roguelike, like Dungeons of Dredmore or The Oregon Trail.

    Can you defend yourself?

    Against five? No, I'd be running at around the 'e' in the words 'Hey you!' I'm fortunate in that I've never been jumped, so I've never had to defend myself. Strangely, I'd never bother crossing the street, because I tend to find people are pretty happy to meet a friendly, cheerful bugger who...

    What are your skills?

    I'm good with people. I'm apparently great at listening. I'm also enough of a 'Renaissance Man' to be able to at least hazard a good first approximation on any topic. I'm also one of the few people who will say 'Okay, we'll go with your idea' if I'm unsure of the correct answer to a situation...

    Borderlands 2 Review

    Very fair point, actually, most of the areas were extremely open. But then, it could also just be an example of choosing how you want to play a character. The system is still nicely open to any interpretation of any character, which is how I like it, but it did lead to a bit of 'every...

    Borderlands 2 Review

    I liked the game when I tried it, but didn't like the shoe-horned characters idea. To be honest, you're being pretty damn fair. :) I still really enjoyed the game, though, didn't really notice the lack of background since I was too busy trying to kill things, then loot their bodies, their...

    Did ME3 ruin Mass Effect for you?

    In all honesty, the people who said that ME2 was what did it for them before me are the ones I'm agreeing with. After ME2, I just lost interest. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed ME2, but I played and replayed ME1 for hours and hours (not something that usually happens) and enjoyed the...

    Ambition

    I would love to agree with you dude, because that is one hell of an ambition. :) Unfortunately, my only ambition at the moment is to get my skin to the point where it doesn't hurt every day. After all, other than that, life's pretty nice to me, which is why I don't get too bent out of shape...
