Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode I (Xbox 360): The most endearing geek-out you'll see all day: Man discovers window to the past in still-sealed Saturn game
Wow. Had he kept it in the seal, I'd have bought it for the 26p and screwed up tesco receipt I just found in my pocket.

Gaming's most hated technology failures
My Xbox went RRoD, so I sent it off for repair the day it arrived back home I got the E74 error message. I has worked totally fine since though.

18 awesome games that died at retail
I played all the sega games on this list. Panzer Dragoon Orta... I had forgotten how much I loved that game. I'm going to dig it out and play it now. It is on the 360s backwards compatibility list isn't it? I hope so.

I bought the halo 2 special edition!!! Shortly afterwards I realised I had spent an extra £10 on a dvd consisting of bungie staff sucking each others dicks for an hour. I'm never buying a "special" edition ever again.

Thanks for the music?
I work in a music shop(that's a music shop that sells guitars and amps etc. not CDs and DVDs), and I can't tell you how many times parents buy their kid a guitar because of rockband or guitar hero. And thats great. But the truth is, more often than not, when that kid gets his guitar home and tries to play, he quickly learns that its a LOT harder than the game, and so the guitar gathers dust in the corner while he rocks to holly heaven on a plastic imitation. On the other side of the coin, there are some kids who do power through and actually learn to play the real thing. The point is, it doesn't change how many people will learn to play for real, so I'm totally indifferent to it. Well, nearly indifferent. I HATE those games, mainly because I'm totally shit at them, which is mainly because I've been playing guitar for so many years that five buttons and a flappy paddle are just impossible for me to get my head around. Now I need a fag.

QOTW: What was the first movie game that made you hate movie games?
Home Alone on the megadrive. I fucking loved the film when I was a kid, and then I played the game... A BATTERY POWERED SLED?!? How the fuck is that supposed to work?!? Plus it was ridiculously hard, practically impossible. I feel sorry for anyone who opened a christmas present to find that game. I'm lucky, I borrowed it off a mate. P.S. If anyone answers this question with "goldeneye", I will rip their nipples off.

My god, I was just watching that robot dance and listening to John Frusciante's "Untitled #8" from Niandra LaDes. It all synced up perfectly and thats one trippy piece of music. It kind of freaked me out.
