    The Missing Link DLC Dated and Priced

    Us Europeans PS3 owners have to wait until Wednesday because that's PSN Store update day! Still haven't got the game though, but on Amazon its £16.99. As soon as I get paid I am buying it.

    how many Years have you been gaming?

    If we count Putt Putt, it was also my first game. Putt Putt goes to the Moon ruled! Ahem... My first real game was Super Mario World on Snes back when I was about 5, so about 15 years ago was when i started if we count that, otherwise more like 3. I used to love football (soccer) games but...

    Rumored Tech Specs Give Wii 2 More Power Than Xbox 360

    Trying to play quite a lot of types of games (sports, fps, action, beat 'em up) I struggle to use a touchscreen for, just find that things don't tend to work as smoothly as having buttons there. Then again it might be different on a 6 inch screen, if it is actually true. I'm just not overly...

    Gabe Newell Speaks: What About Counter-Strike 2?

    I like these additions. Can we put them in place now? Really, I only played it for the first time last year (being a mac user and all) and I don't think it really needs much changing. I didn't care much about the graphics being a bit dated because the gameplay itself was fun.

    Poll: Mac versus PC: Let's be nice about it

    I'm running a Macbook with MacOSX. I used to have it running bootcamp with Windows 7 but removed it for some reason I can't quite remember. But I had the Windows partition for gaming, which on this ran quite well, I was getting better fps and a generally better experience gaming than my...

    Most underrated game ever?

    I used to absolutely love that game. About two weeks ago I was talking to my housemate about it and couldn't remember the name of it for my life. Until he said so you play as freedom fighters and it clicked.. Anywho, that, and Timesplitters for me I think. Never really got the widespread...

    What's the best Virus detector?

    To reiterate what most people have said so far, when I had a windows machine, I used AVG, and I never had a virus. Just a really, really underpowered computer...

    Never heard of Arkansas . . . WHAT.

    I once had a girl ask me if Britain was landlocked. While we were sat on a beach, staring at the sea, in England. Bad enough as that is, it's made worse by the fact that she was studying GCSE Geography at the time. I don't actually know if she was any good at geography though, and god knows...

    Your "Last Stand" Song

    I forgot how brilliant that song was. I think "Jude Law and a Semester Abroad" by Brand New would be mine, mainly because it's such a good song to sing/shout along to.

    What game are you most looking forward too in 2011?

    I am surprised it took so long for someone to mention Uncharted 3. Cannot wait for that game!

    "Brackets"? What f#$%ing brackets?!

    I'm on a Macbook too, they're next to the P key on mine. Maybe you have some special keyboard on yours designed specifically to be frustrating :(

    Poll: Favourite Energy Drink (or not so much)

    I too want to say Lucozade. But the ones that are listed, I would pick Monster I think.

    3D Blue ray Player vs PS3

    I would have thought there would be next to no difference. I would personally sell the Blu-Ray player.
