OK after second practice I am now becoming converted to the Lotus being genuinely fast this year. I'd still go for Vettel on pole because that's standard Red Bull tactics, but really it could be any one of Vettel, Alonso and Raikkonnen for the race, with Massa and Webber not far behind (I do...

As the Guardian newspaper quipped: "Lewis Hamilton has recently acquired a dog and so, it seems, has Button" I wouldn't be surprised if the start of this season was much like last years with several drivers winning races, until one team manages to develop an edge over the others. I'm not...

My preciousss... "Reports have emerged that Warner Brothers is to countersue the estate of late Lord of the Rings author JRR Tolkien for standing in the way of a million-dollar licensing deal with a casino gaming company to produce Hobbit-branded one-armed bandits... Warner suggests that the...

Lies was great. Red Sails was less great, it's like there were two shorter books that got spliced together and the plot got messy requiring lots of sailing back and forth. However, the guy can write, and I love the setting he's created. I'd put Abercrombie ahead of him but not by much, and stick...

I don't see how anyone would reasonably expect to do those algorithms on the servers when the servers they had weren't capable of handling basic operations, never mind complex real-time calculations for thousands upon thousands of agents. It's far more likely the issues were brought up in...

"Footage of laboratory-raised chimpanzees venturing outside for the first time has emerged, showing the primates in amazement at their new surroundings" http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worl...irst-time.html I think this is how those North Koreans are going to react when the border finally...

We'll know a lot more after one actual race, but based on testing and rules changes: Alonso to win as Ferrarri start strong. Vettel will come second as Adrian Newey works his voodoo. McLaren to struggle with reliability and consistency in the first half of the season. Mercedes and Lotus...

It's not quite up to date I think but here's a chart of what content there is and what it costs: http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.p...k-Access-Chart You can buy this stuff with Turbine Points earned while playing the game. The early levels give the most points per hour, so if you're ok...

From memory I think they were most players first encounter with the original Gravity Flux spell

Eurogamer have updated their original article. At first EA had declined to comment, now they say: "While we have not announced sales for Dead Space 3, we are proud of the game and the franchise remains an important IP to EA,"

In my experience you don't choose to work with these companies, you work for a smaller firm whose owner then decides to cash in by selling out to them. In happier times it was easier to find work elsewhere if you didn't like it, these days you take what you can get.

EA cans Dead Space series following poor sales of Dead Space 3 http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/20...space-3-report

I was under the impression Turbine / Warner Brothers had not renewed their license on the Hobbit "content" so it's mildly surprising we see Dale and the Lonely Mountain. The LOTR license itself lapses in 2014; Turbine can extend it for another 3 years but no word yet AFAIK.

House of Cards and now this. There's been some great TV recently.

Having a touchpad on both front and back wouldn't make much sense, or am I missing something? The Eurogamer article on the same thing specifically mentions there isn't a pad on the back, but they don't back that up with evidence, anecdotal or otherwise.

There's a couple of brother Kims. However, one of them is regarded as "no good because he is like a little girl" while the other got arrested trying to get to Tokyo Disneyland, resulting in exile to China, although apparently he's now on the move because the Kim in charge is trying to bump him...

There's a small preview over on Eurogamer: http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/20...-happy-hunting "One of Carbine's more startling development statistics is that they're currently making nine square kilometers of new area every eight weeks or so. What is a little surprising, though, is...

China wants stability and basically for everyone to mind their own business and let them carry on banking all the money on the planet. North Korea is useful to them in that it keeps South Korea away from their border, but North Korea is a problem to them because they make everyone else nervous...

Well we do make cars in the UK it's just by and large we just don't own the companies involvedThat's a long story though... There are some UK owned companies still, McLaren may be the best known. Morgan and Caterham are as well I think. Noble are or were, but I'm not sure they make any cars...

Gin and Rose's lime juice makes a classic Gimlet, proportions to taste. Very refreshing.

Oh I don't know, I thought Ian Richardson nailed it the first time round as well (hear the venom he gets in the last sentence): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylu3x...9A2E55BBEBAC5E (careful of spoilers to later series on nearby links) It's such a great part; add a great actor and you...

It was an odd selection of cars because of the price difference between them. The Lexus had the tech and looked pretty good, but at 340,000 UK pounds, if you could afford it, you could probably afford something nicer. The Aston looks gorgeous but at 190,000 pounds it only looks cheap compared to...

I thought it got off to a promising start. The original series was fantastic; Urquhart (Underwood in the remake) is one of the most amoral and malevolent characters in TV history.

It looks like there might be some issues with the port: "on iPad, where notwithstanding its rough edges, Clash of Heroes is still a joy to play. On an iPhone, it's a miniaturised test of patience... Clash of Heroes is still a must for iPad owners. Its luxurious scope and hypnotic power...

I think your memory is playing tricks on you. The graphics were good for the time but the game needed at least a year's more work. Large parts of the world were full of invisible obstacles and the dungeons were almost entirely rubbish, when not bugged. Levelling speed and class balance were...
