I've been playing World of Goo , a delightful physics-based puzzle that works a little like Lemmings. You're given a set number of goo balls at the start of a level and you have to get as many as possible out of the level through an exit pipe, which can be anywhere (including way up in the sky). You...

Yeah, I've thought about doing this as well as the markup on the hard drives is huge. They're basically just laptop hard drives in a plastic box with a bespoke connector. I was thinking of buying a 120gb drive and a broken 20gb Xbox HDD, then opening up the case of the broken drive and inserting the...

I've got this for the 360, I have to admit when I first played the demo it downright offended me with its weird arcadey handling. I'm still upset that Codemasters were so brazen as to admit that, because their sales went way up when they changed the Colin McRae series from a sim-style game to an arc...

To be fair, many of the same things that bugged me in Oblivion continue to bug me in Fallout 3. The way people stand stock still and people in the background freeze while you're talking to somebody, the endless cost of repairing your stuff, never feeling like you're getting any more powerful because...

Star Wars Episode I: Pod Racer - beautiful graphics, great sense of speed. Was well into the game, but then just stopped playing, maybe because the tracks became too hard towards the end - too hard for someone with my less-than-fanatical gaming concentration and mentality, at any rate. I did eventu...

The graphics engine's looking really nice in Wrath, I'm almost tempted to start playing again, but levels 68-70 took me a solid 13 hours of play each, rested. The levels are going to be absolutely huge near the cap and I'm not sure I want to invest all that effort only to have nothing to do but grin...

Watchers' Xbox Live/PSN/Steam IDs
I thought it would be a good idea to maintain a list of everyone's relevant gaming IDs for the major systems; Xbox Live, PSN for PS3, Steam and xfire for PC gaming. If you want your details adding, post them below and I'll update the list here so we can have an easier time finding each other online,...

What a finish! Luck did factor in to it, but he had as much bad as good I think. He probably should've gone on to dry tyres early instead of waiting to see what Massa did. Fernando Alonso made the switch early and that's what elevated him to second, McLaren were a bit too conservative there I think....

Fable 2. Exclusively. I don't think I've been this hooked on a game since I first played World of Warcraft, the story's great, the voice acting is superb and the world is incredibly charming and quite big too. I just can't stop playing it at the moment, a lot of the reviews have realled dwelled on t...

Not exactly a conspiracy theory, but Rasputin's granddaughter carried round her grandfather's severed, and famously large, penis in a leather pouch until her death. When it was later put up for auction at Bonham's, closer examination revealed that the preserved member was, in fact, a dessicated sea ...

I loved MechWarrior 2, I used to like using the Nova all the time even when it was way outgunned on paper, as it could fly and could fire its little guns for ever. It was quite slow though, unfortunately the copy I had won't run on XP for some reason. Chromehounds is good on multiplayer and it's a l...

The Space stage is where the game really gets a bit of depth. I'm having fun with it now and I'm getting quite powerful, but terraforming is still very difficult. I've bought the cloud generators, but getting the timing right with a meteor or comet strike so that they bring the planet into the next ...

Never mind the fact he holds his lightsabre backwards, which is the most emo thing of all time. I second that, I noticed the teeny twi'lek in The Clone Wars was doing the same thing and I do not approve (thought the film itself isn't as bad as it's made out to be). I downloaded the demo of this and...

Well, the open beta was a bit borked in Europe, it wasn't working a lot of the time and then they had to reset some of the realms and I lost my first character. I rolled up a Squig Herder and played that a bit, but to be honest I found the 'balance' aspect of combat made the Swordmaster the more enj...

I remember a British girl doing this about six or seven years ago, supposedly to pay for her University tuition fees. It didn't get very much coverage, but one of the broadsheets covered it (the Independent, I think) in a very objective manner and witnessed the meet and 'exchange'. She even had a bo...
