    Biggest video game disappointment?

    It's a tie between No Man's Sky and The Division. I can't remember ever being as disappointed in a released product as those two, but that could be as a result of the over inflated hype that both games had.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    The amazing thing about M&B was that despite of shenanigans like siege defense it was still an awesome game. In the videos of Bannerlord it looks like they've got deployment under control. Fingers crossed.

    Bad Ass NES music.

    I absolutely loved F-Zero on the SNES, but as that was already posted: Top Gear 2, still one of my favourite racing games.

    No Man's Sky

    I'd been looking forward to this game for a long, long time. I'm glad I held off on the preorder, but it's staying in my wishlist for now as I'm hoping it gets fleshed out over time. It seems like yet another game that just released too early.

    Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

    Sequel to Mount and Blade Warband. As far as I know no release date is set yet, but there's a whole bunch of gameplay demos on Youtube, and it's looking pretty damn good. I've pretty much played Warband to death at this point with over 800 hours played (thanks PoP and Gejukoku) so very much...

    Fallout 4

    It happened at one of my minor settlements yesterday. You get a temporary mission objective to go and assist the settlement, and as far as I could see the game doesn't spawn attackers until you're on site (presumably if you leave it too long it goes ahead without you). On another note I...

    If you liked Homeworld and Freespace.. Void Destroyer and Void Destroyer 2.

    I tried to get into Void Destroyer but the control system was so terrible I had to stop before I burst a blood vessel. This is coming from someone who has, like Khorum, over 1000 hours in X3.

    Life Is Strange

    I loved Episodes 1-3, and have played through them twice. I'd go so far as to say I enjoyed them as much as Telltales' Walking Dead. Half way through episode 4 though I started to lose interest in the conversations, the writing seemed to take a nose dive and whereas before I was totally into the...

    Anarchy Online New Graphics Engine

    I've tried to get back into this but just can't. I don't like the Shadowlands at all. Without even going into the content, it just seems completely at odds with the AO universe and crudely tacked on. Almost like taking my AO character into FF11. I don't even know what the other expansions are...

    Anarchy Online New Graphics Engine

    I thought I'd reactivate my old account from 2002 and give this a go again. Rather than start up one of my old characters I've created a new one, and things are slowly coming back to me. Once you've left the new starter area is the idea still to go to Omni Trade and Omni Ent and run missions...

    First World Problems

    Haha, I did that a few years ago yeah. I was walking up the Champs Elysees and thought, I wonder if you really can buy a beer in Mcdonalds. It turns out yes, yes you can.

    First World Problems

    I like to pick up a T-shirt at each one I visit, thought I might as well eat while I was there. The beer was still Italian and I made a point of saying grazie instead of thanks. Haha.

    First World Problems

    I just got back from a long weekend in Rome which was great, but the Hard Rock cafe I had lunch in yesterday had run out of pulled pork so I had to have a Texan with chicken instead.

    Ever, Jane: A New MMO Set In The World Of Jane Austen.

    Someone tried to hack my rerolled account?

    I got the same the other day as well as a few occasions before, and the IP is always based in China. Just make sure you have a strong password and forget about it.

    Computer Issues

    Exactly what you've described would happen if you'd plugged the mic into the Aux in/out socket by mistake. Is that the case?

    7 Days to Die

    It's come a long way since the last post. Alpha 11 should be out by the end of the month, and already it's a very fleshed out game. As early access games go it's extremely stable, I've got over 140 hours played in it now and never had a crash. The crafting system has 200+ items to build and with...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    Well in Kenshi you can shift click a job and that character will do that job until enemies get in range then they'll attack the enemies until they're dead/unconcious then go back to their specified task. Plus with the squad management feature I've been splitting my guys into combat and non...

    Kenshi - A Sandbox RPG

    The next stable update looks like it's going to be a good one. Since the last stable update they've implemented a lot of stuff into the experimental build. Including squad management (plus they've upped the max number of player characters up to 50 from 20), roaming animals and nests, large...

    X Wing/ Tie Fighter

    Time to buy a joystick again! I hope they release X-Wing Alliance too. I actually really liked the transition from being just a family run freighter pilot to rebel fighter pilot.

    Scottish Independence

    Scottish referendum: Scotland votes 'No' to independence: The result became a mathematical certainty at 06:08, as the returning officer in Fife announced a comfortable No vote. It looks like we're stuck with them for the time being. Unfortunately the damage has already been done, near half...

    Asking for a Raise

    This is why I tend to change jobs every 3 years or so. I work in IT and 3 years gives me enough time to get some major projects under my belt and then stick them on my CV. I tend to start keeping an eye out for a new position after the 2 year mark, that way you can pick and choose your next...

    Scottish Independence

    No, it's true because the people I know personally said that's the case. As much as I dislike using the Mail as a source, their core facts (or at least the headline) in this case are correct.

    Minecraft

    Would be a definite purchase for me! I've been getting into other voxel games like 7 Days to Die, but at the back of my mind I'm always wishing I could import the culmination of the hundreds of hours I've spent constructing in Minecraft.

    Scottish Independence

    I've got a few Scottish friends, all of whom are military or ex military (who aren't allowed to vote in the referendum) and every one of them says very few people they know are interested in splitting from the UK. Up until a couple of weeks ago no one was interested in this at all, but then all...

    Dead State

    The beta is out for this now, and is fully playable (as opposed to the 7 days demo). It's shaping up to be really good, although of course it's still early days yet. Saying that I've got 16 hours played already and have only come across a handful of bugs/peculiarities, but none of them game...
