Vice City is the last genuinely great game in the series in my opinion, I thought SA and IV were ugly games in many ways however I’d be happy if VGA played any of them, it is the type of game I think they can just bounce off of very well. If I were to choose an open world Rocktar game for them to play though I would go with RDR, I’ve been playing…[Read more]

As someone who hasn’t read an Iron Man comic ever I enjoyed the third movie just as much as I enjoyed the other two, maybe even a little more the more I think about it. I’ve always felt that what was great about the movies was Downey Jr’s interaction with Paltrow (who gives just as good a performance as his) and whoever else he comes into contact…[Read more]

I tend to fall into the “Not a game for the show” camp. As extraordinarily good as Awakening is I just don’t think strategy RPG is suited to the show personally, of course if Fraser decides to play it I shall be there to watch and hope it turns out great but I don’t see how that kind of game could hold them and provide them with the material to…[Read more]

Fair enough, different strokes and all that jazz. You can’t please everyone at once and I’m sure these new characters will gel with plenty of people as Roman and Nico and various others clearly did for the many many GTA IV fans. I don’t wanna make a straight up negative judgement call on them before the game is even out though, I will be playing…[Read more]

This is sad times, seems kinda irritating of Warner Bros ad Viacom but it makes sense from a business point of view, they cherry pick the most watched shows on Netflix and put them on their own streaming service,

To be fair they weren’t looking at specifically violent video games, they look at the top 50 best selling video games and determining whether there was anything remotely like violence in them. Games like Wii Sports and Animal Crossing are said to contain comic mischief in the graph which they do and the video that comes with the article skates…[Read more]

Not particularly, I have very little time for GTA IV in general, I thought it was an even uglier game than San Andreas and the characters were just rather meh. Roman gets really irritating really quickly with all his phoning you up all the time, really disliked him pretty soon into the game and Brucie has some funny scenes but he was hardly memorable.

Eh, not the most likable characters at the moment it seems. Then again there hasn’t really been any likeable characters in GTA since Vice City unless they’re just charismatic villains like Tenpenny. Still waiting to see something that gets me pumped about this game.

Mmm Ellis is interesting, I can totally understand why people wouldn’t like him, as Spoony once said he has a very abrasive style that can be hard to like sometimes though I’d say it’s definitely my type of thing. That kind of writing is the opposite to Superman in some ways, I know Superman comics can be dark but Ellis is also largely nihilistic…[Read more]

I don’t tend to like any score based rating system, I think they’re arbitrary and simplifying what you think of a game into just a number or a grade is not really fair to the game. In terms of a pretty much perfect game though Yoshi’s Island is a damn good choice, it’s easily the best Mario platformer and wracking my brains leads to little in the…[Read more]

The way you talk about breasts troubles me sometimes, I may be nitpicking with a fine comb here but the way you refer to the sorceress’s breasts as “amazing” and the other character’s as having “teeny-tiny-titties” shows a somewhat questionable quality to your argument. Also just because there is less fetishim of female anatomy it doesn’t mean…[Read more]

Azumanga Daioh is probably my favourite anime of all time, I fell so in love with all those characters, particularly Sakaki and Osaka. It’s humour isn’t for everyone but if you’re into the surreal side of comedy Azumanga Daioh does it like no one else, shows have come along since that have tried to emulate it and failed miserably. Equally…[Read more]

I looove Fables, great series. Red Son is one of the only Superman Comics I’ve read, I’m not a fan of the cxharacter in general but Red Son is excellent, another really interesting Superman comic is All Star Superman, I have tended to dislike everything Grant Morrison does but All Star Superman is a complete exception, terrific piece of…[Read more]

I tend to agree with the “14 year old boy” comment. That’s over the top in the worst kind of way, it’s an utterly moronic design, oh and by the way, that’s a joke too, the writer doesn’t actually think that the artist is a 14 year old boy. I also have a problem with the artist’s response, depending on how you interpret it. If it’s a gay joke then…[Read more]

Awesome Euske, good luck, will do my best to show up for at least some of it.

Hey buddy, I won’t be able to watch the whole show, but will definitely pop-in to check it out.  Just remember, you’re doing this for fun, and cause it’s there.  I’m sure you’ll do awesome.

Yeah I think that went really well, Brent was great and gelled with the rest of the crew who were also on great form of course. Very good choice of game. Just a really fun show, glad it went so well.

@Oidisco That sounds like a plan, Pianoslave has posted in the Turbo forum about splitting a room at the Green Tortoise between a few of us if you wanna head over there along with any other turbos who might be […]

A few turbos stayed in The Green Tortoise hostel last year, myself included though I was in a different room to the group that stayed there. Green Tortoise is really good and in a really convenient location and […]
