    Rant and Rave: Netflix UK and US

    As far as movies and TV goes, it's just the last remnants of laws about physical media that the companies are milking for every last penny, and I'm pretty sure our lack of other technologies is due to the fact that we are have a comparatively small population and therefore there's less money to...

    Who Are Your Favourite Underrated YouTubers?

    RunButton are the best you can get with let's players in terms of commentary. They have the best chemistry and get along so well which makes the commentary so natural and entertaining. They've played a number of games, but most notably they have played (almost) every Sonic game out there in...

    What are your thoughts on 4chan?

    It's the worst and the best and I love it. If you get past the shitposting, it really is a place you can enjoy. Plus anonymity and the lack of an up/down vote system promotes actual discussion without worrying about being censored for having a different opinion. I frequent /v/, /g/, /r9k/...

    JonTron takes a hiatus from GameGrumps

    EDIT: Confirmed bullshit. Thanks for making me look like a gullible idiot, 4chan. Incase you guys didn't see these posts on /v/, the reason for their splitting up may have been to do with this: I'm not claiming this is legit or anything but it's a possible explanation.

    Music Elitists

    The only notable form of elitism I've encountered other than the classic rock fanatics are people that flat out refuse accept a genre exists because they "it doesn't fit the textbook definition of music" or "it requires no talent" (ie. stop liking what I don't like)...

    What's on YOUR Phone?

    I use my phone as an MP3 player and portable web browser(Chrome is my browser of choice). I don't really have any 'utility' apps apart from a flash light app and a QR code scanner. I also bought a PS3 controller and a GameKlip so I could use my Galaxy SII as a handheld retro gaming device.

    Which of these computers are better? Thanks!

    The second one. And, assuming you are using this for gaming, you only need to buy 4GB of RAM. Also, assuming you are buying pre-built, don't buy pre-built. It's a lot cheaper to do research and find the best combination of hardware that can run your highest spec game. No one needs to...

    Halp. Ponies.

    My pony fandom started the same way as your's and at nearly the same time. It's impossible to stop watching! I think I spent 2 solid days watching all the episodes, then season 3 started a week or so later. I just cant get enough. And I think you'll find Applejack is best pony. Dat accent.

    Doctor Who Season 7: Episode 1 - Asylum of the Daleks (SPOILERS)

    I loved the whole episode apart form the "subtract love" thing. That was just silly. But the twist was really great and I loved the idea of insane daleks.

    ZombiU looks surprisingly awesome.

    Some of the touchscreen use seems kind of arbitrary but other than that it seems ok. Nothing about it looks bad but it just seems like they're saying "Hey, look what we can do with the Wii U. oh and zombies", but then again I suppose a fun proof of concept is exactly what a developer wants from...

    Is a purchase of Fez worth it today?

    The game is quite prone to crashing so don't worry if it does that. My save file is still intact though so I don't really know if there are any procedures to revive a file or if you just have to start over.

    Poll: Is it ok to emulate a game if you own it?

    In your case I would say it's fine, but I would just buy a better capture card. Gamecube/Wii emulation requires a pretty fast PC (a good core i5 processor) already, so recording it at full speed would require a PC that's probably out of your price range if you didn't want to buy a new capture...

    Is a purchase of Fez worth it today?

    The save file bug only affected a small amount of people who were near the end of the game, and any other bugs are insignificant. Fez is amazing and one of my favourite games. You should buy it straight away.

    Is your 3DS worth it?

    I find this thread encouraging as I was thinking of buying a 3DS XL quite soon. However I am concerned about the absurd pricing and small library of VC games available. £4.50 for Wario Land 2 is just insane. Can anyone confirm if there are going to be any GBA/SNES/N64 titles available in...

    What Let's Play are you watching/just watched?

    RunButton. Seriously just watch one of their videos http://www.youtube.com/user/RunButton/videos . These two guys do THE best commentary. It just flows seamlessly and they've managed to keep it fresh through EVERY SINGLE SONIC GAME. They also do podcasts if you don't feel like watching the...
