    Halo Reach Perfect 10! WTF?

    Why is it that people seem to consistantly make the mistake that 10/10 = perfect 10/10 out of ten represents the best in gaming media that can hoped to be achieved at this present time, at no point in the review did it say "halo: reach is perfect in everyway" Films consistently recieve 5...

    Poll: Bioshock Infinite: good or bad?

    Ecoshock is a great name for ecological terroist organisation, would probably make a good game too

    Reviewers Should Finish Games, Says Zampella

    It seems ridiculous to me that a reviewer can even consider not finishing a game (with the exception of online only and mmo's of course). A film reviewer would never walk out of a film because it was "too long" and still write a review about it. Someone reviewing a book wouldn't read half of...

    TF2: New Scout weapons

    Well first of all the new bat takes away the double jump, not the shotgun so i dunno what your talking about there, second im not sure why your so afraid of change, if you don't like the new FREE stuff then don't use it, but don't whine about it because you don't know how to use it.

    I assume he means once the warranty has expired, or if you purchased your x-box second hand say from ebay.

    Series that you were glad to see end

    Sadly its true, the developers of Crash and Spyro (Naughty Dog and Insomniac Games respectively)moved onto bigger and better things, namely Jak and Ratchet and Clank, those developers knew when the series needed to end why didn't anyone else?

    Question for the Guitar Players?

    Joe Bonamassa certainly ranks as my favourite guitarist, in my opinion his music writing combined with his voice make him an awesome guitarist, probably helps that I love blues music though.

    Trouble With Guitars.

    If your going for jazz and hard rock the les paul is the way, sg's are generally more for heavy metal and even harder rock, tend to have a "heavier" sound, whereas a les paul has a much cleaner and crisp sound.

    No More Heroes... why all the praise?

    NMH was a great game if you were prepared to look past its flaws, those being some of the mini games and the atrociously designed hub. The combat never got old and was always hilarious, I think I played that entire game standing up. Its flaws can be forgiven for its dynamic and original style...
