Portal 2 (PC): 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.

Portal 2 (PC): 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.

"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.

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.

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.

Ah come on, they get upgrades? Well, at least we get hybrid weapons (they're almost certain, since the Marksman in R2 was the first one, so more are likely). I never really cared for Hale, I've always liked Resistance because of it's scenery; I remember on R2 when I first saw those humongous ships; they scared the shit out of me. I just hope they've smoothened out the gun's handling, I always thought is was poor, although I can't really explain why.

How can you say that a game is a clone of it's predecessor, then go on to give it a 9?

My record was 17, for MW2. And yes, this amuses me. I build up a friends list full of idiots before the release of any CoD, or CoD-like (i.e. crap) game, just so I have plenty of victims.

Don't talk about logic in a game where you're the only person who can survive a bite from a zombie. Also, try using the pole weapon (broom + machete). Melee weapons are more powerful than guns in this game. Also, use quick step (wine + wine) for health, that'll sort out your speed problems.

I've had this game since Monday, and this review doesn't do the game justice. If the boss fights were too hard, you were obviously using the wrong weapon (try and good melee weapon, and it'll do wonders). The save points are alright, you just need to get used to surviving. And while the graphics may not be up to the par of, say, Uncharted 2, they do their job rather well. Also, you didn't mention TIR, co-op, costumes (where a flaw does lie), shops, or the remarkably good mission-guide-arrow-thingy.

Also, while there aren't any fun games out at the moment, DR2 and Duke Nukem Forever (it's not been delayed since last week!) both promise to be, and who could forget Worms? And I'm sure Portal 2 will have quite a bit of comedy (Stephen Merchant) as well.
