    Game of Thrones Star to Play Angry Birds Movie Role

    Oh good god. Look at this: [img src='http://www.rovio.com/UserFiles/thumbs/__thumb_-2-Angry%20Birds%20High%20Res.jpg'] Why do the birds have limbs?!

    Surprise! Digital Downloads Have Bigger Carbon Footprint Than Most Discs

    I think that this report overlooks a major factor that benefits digital over physical, and that's disposability. Say you buy a game, play it for an hour and decide that you really don't want it in your house. If you bought a physical disc, you can send the DVD out to be recycled, but due to...

    Anyone regularly play Animal Crossing: New Leaf?

    I stopped playing Animal Crossing months ago because I simply wasn't invested in the game anymore. I ended up deleting it today because that goddamn blue Spotpass light just wouldn't go away, even after I erased the town. Annoying.

    That bit with the Commodore blew my mind.

    Americans Paying More For Worse Internet

    And here's me sitting on a big fat SIX Mb/s. I'd complain, but even that's twelve times the speed I had just four months ago. Why yes, I do live in Australia.

    UK Phone Carrier O2 Offering Xbox One and PS4 Contract Plans

    Nobody's corrected you for spelling Xperia with a capital E? Am I the only one here who actually uses one?

    Two days and already the three day passes are sold out? How did that even happen?!

    Zero Punctuation: Super Smash Bros. Brawl

    You've actually only made reply number 1336. Original posts aren't included in the reply count. THIS is reply number 1337, and let's hope this thread is left that way. Anyway, while I'm here I may as well admit that, having abandoned Brawl ages ago, I find that most of the criticisms I...

    Official GTA V iFruit Companion App Launches for Android

    Not calling the app "Badger" or "Eyefind" was a big missed opportunity.

    Zero Punctuation: Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs

    My theory is that GTA V isn't going to get reviewed next week because he didn't specifically say so in order to shut up the stupider Escapists. What I'd like to see is him steadfastly refusing to review the game because he knows everyone is just going to pile hate on him for somehow finding a...

    Who here will not be playing GTAV?

    Now that GTAV is officially out, it's fair to say that anyone who can play the game and want to play the game will be absent from the internet today so that they can play the game. But no interest eclipses the entirety of humanity, so a few of us won't be playing Grand Theft Auto V anytime...

    Ads that have made you want to avoid the product.

    I locked my hypothetical Australian Election vote in for the Labor party for two reasons: One, the Coalition's NBN plan is bollocks, and two, they ran an ad where they covered the Labor logo in filth, sat it next to a bag of garbage and a broken old tv, and told us to "Have a Labor/Greens Spring...

    Games you love but yet suck at.

    Team Fortress 2 Whenever I join a random game, I unerringly get assigned to the abysmally losing team. The exceptions are when I'm playing Degroot Keep. And the teams are small. And my opponents have over a hundred ping. And Lady Luck's ***** slapping hand is tired. Even then we're only...

    Good Old Reviews: I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream

    I'd love to contribute to this thread now that I've bought and played this title, but I didn't really like it that much... I guess if you can tolerate the dated game design you might find an enjoyable story. I wouldn't know. Ellen's voice acting got on my tits.
