8 months, 2 weeks ago Stunning Portal fan-film is sweeter, sadder, and funnier than a box of depressed unicorns. Watch immediately
@TheHungryLemur: no, it's definitely before Portal 2, I'm not sure whether it's before or after the original (I never played it). But I think it's after, since she has the portal gun (excellent way to scratch your back!).

In the last 2 years, I think there's been 3 films that I've liked. Hollywood's becoming less about the art and more about the money every day; so is gaming, for that matter, but we're still in the early years yet.

Soon there won't be a damn form of entertainment left. Movies, games, music, hell even porn's going downhill.

Oh well, it doesn't matter; there'll be a shit storm once the oil runs out anyway (thank you, last generation!). The water table's dropping like a stone too, and the economy is designed to be teetering over the edge constantly. And what will the human race's response be? To fucking fight. Of course, it'll bring the population down, but if it goes nuclear, we're fucked.

Ah well, Duke Nukem's coming out in a couple of weeks. Stay positive, right?

Also, what happened to those wind-up chattering teeth? I haven't seen them in years.
8 months, 3 weeks ago Valve kicks off Portal 2 Summer Mapping Initiative competition
But the PS3 doesn't get custom maps. That's what the customers care about. That and new content for the brilliant, but ultimately short campaign (I know most games are short, but my mind's still back in the days of the PS2).

And the Turret Opera. That's just beautiful.

Also, New Scientist reported recently that ReCaptcha can be bypassed by computer, so can we get rid of it now? It's got to the point where you have to search for one that's legible; honestly, it's worse than my handwriting, which is on par with a (unusually smart) spider's.

How about those adverts on this site? They seem to be chasing us, and they're fucking scary.
9 months, 2 weeks ago New Tomb Raider movie gets Iron Man writers. Olivia Wilde denies rumors that she’s the next Lara Croft
I'd like to add that if she ever gets a part in a game, it must have a nude cheat. It's a bit pervy, yes, but I doubt you'd hear many men complaining. Or saying anything for that matter.

Well, they might as well have something to do while they're sitting on their arses doing nothing.

I'm not a discriminator, I dislike everyone equally. Well, I do like myself. I guess that means I discriminate against myself as the minority.
9 months, 3 weeks ago 5 reasons to hate Metal Gear Solid
Why is the fact that you can skip cutscenes so overlooked? I mean, come on!

Also, MGS4 is my favourite PS3 game. And MGS1 my favourite PS1 game. And MGS2 my 5th favourite PS2 game. I never played MGS3.

I like the MGS games. Probably why my CVG ID is Gaseous Snake (it's what Solidus should have been called).

Agreed, GR, agreed.

This Recaptcha is illegible. It's getting ridiculous.
9 months, 3 weeks ago Portal 2 would have contained a wall-walking gel were it not so nauseating
"wow way to make it even more obvious that they was basicly copying TAG: the power of paint"

They hired the developers of TAG to help them; it wasn't copied, it was TAG.

I think they should add it as DLC, because I think that'd be fantastic. I'd happily just stay at hope, playing Portal, and puking in a bucket. Probably be lethal for bulimics though.

GET RID OF THIS FUCKING RECAPTCHA
10 months, 1 week ago Breaking down the 100 best games: What do our choices say about us?
Just played Space Invaders as a flash game on browser, I hereby claim it to be the best game ever. Seriously, play it, it's still fantastic. Even against MGS4, which I love, and was playing at the same time (I'm quite good at playing 2 games simultaneously; it's twice the fun, and loading times don't bore you!
10 months, 1 week ago Breaking down the 100 best games: What do our choices say about us?
You're wrong!
No, you're wrong!
No, you're wrong!
No, you're right!
No, you're right!
Oh, why thank you.
Oh, you little sh*t.
Hehe.
10 months, 3 weeks ago ClassicRadar: GamesRadar vs Shirley Phelps-Roper
Here's a few proverbs and quotes (and one of my own thrown in) to say 'you are stupid' in a more intelligent way:

Two things are infinite; the universe and human stupidity; and I’m not sure about the universe-Albert Einstein.

Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts-Albert Einstein.

Strong and bitter words indicate a weak cause-Victor Hugo.

Deep doubts, deep wisdom; small doubts, little wisdom-Chinese Proverb.

Human kind cannot bear very much reality-T. S. Eliot.

Common sense is not so common-Voltaire.

Arrogant of us, is it not, to think of ourselves as the pinnacle of all existence, rather than an abnormal fusing of matter-me.

A fool sees not the same tree that a wise man sees-William Blake.

If you believe everything you read, better not read-Japanese proverb.

None but a fool worries about things he cannot influence-Samuel Johnson.

So then, she is ridiculed, so in the words of Lord Byron; always laugh while you can. It is cheap medicine.

That's sort of a British version of a massive killing spree.

11 months ago 8 things old gamers moan about
These aren't the things we moan about! They are:

EA/Activision's refusal to provide decent servers (BF excluded).
COD.
Everything within COD.
Everyone who plays COD.
The acronym COD (I genuinely hate it).
Shortness of games.
Lack of originality in games (FPSs in particular).
Game-ruining changes in sequels (RF:G 3rd person).
Lack of character development.
Lack of variety in weapons/vehicles/settings.
Over-priced DLC.
Gimmicks (3D, Move, et cetera).
Facebook on PS3 (and maybe 360, I don't know).
The Wii.
Activision.
Treyarch.
Sony keeping things secret for too long.
Microsoft's bribery.
Lacking polish/unfinished games (e.g TDU2).
Out of date engines (Gamebryo-Fallout).
Microphones (just plain hate the things).
Gamers who don't play as a part of a team.
ReCaptcha.

All that, and I'm 15.

Y'know, guys, this is technically the first review, and I must say, anything less than 11/10 from GR now is unacceptable.

Unbefrickin'lievable; it actually exists! I'm going to go and wave my arms around like Kermit the Frog now, whilst jumping and screaming like a child who'd birthday is on Christmas, and his parents won the lottery last week. Keep an eye out for it on Crimewatch.
