had something quite similar about a week ago - also have AVG +1

I got off to a very strong start on The Witcher then slowly, and sadly, lost interest. It confirms what I always knew - fixed protagonists kill games for me. The fourth wall is too visible. My gaming time is limited at the moment - I'm not in the mood for forgiveness so TW2 is not on my horizon.

^ Dunno Morgie, I didn't play it. Then again, I've never watched Jersey Shore and I'm still perfectly confident it's ****.

This 'eyebrow-movement-video-from-Game of Thrones' internet subculture passed me by until now.

I dunno, I think he's an excellent actor and the accent is fine. He's making this series work for me, his story and character are one of the most interesting parts. I'm looking forward to seeing how him and his new merc / bodyguard are going to work out.

You are now unmasked as Volo's alt and I claim my five electrum pieces.

I read about half of that thread. Mike begins with some bull**** bingo before launching into the classic managerial mea culpa of "we'll learn from the mistakes" (mistakes repeatedly pointed out prior to release and during the development cycle) before then explaining why the mistakes are, in fact, innovative. It's good to see that it's not only my own profession where poor decision making is turned into nuanced, cunning victories by folks who won't listen. Then the thread turns into a moderator / developer circle-jerk, with the occasional shill allowed in to make very minor criticisms. The repeated references by fans to TW2, and the mods saying that it's O/T is amusing though. Cheers MC

^ LOL!

I've been playing - Medieval Total War 2 Rift ...and I'm downloading the humungous new Company of Heroes patch so I can play the new maps and see what CoHO tweaks they've put into the retail game (I've had a five month fallow period away from CoH). Anybody up for a game let me know.

It was in the fridge.

This game is as dead as disco, please stop talking about it.

I've been off beer for 2.5 weeks, been on a bit of a diet (I've lost 8lbs). Just now I popped the lid on a bottle of ice-cold Red Stripe and took a sip. AAAaaaaaaaahhhhh. That's better. I feel like John Mills in Ice Cold in Alex.

Nep is David Gaider and I claim my five gold pieces.

I bet the rapture was Bioware's fault, we're just waiting for the patch.

As long as Guard Dog's drink cabinet remains intact, he'll be OK.

EA Did they tattoo your bloodgroup in your armpit and issue you a dagger?

Like that's a bad thing?

By text? Coward.

The King's Speech What was the fuss about? Seriously? The best actor in it was (Aussie) Guy Pierce who played Edward VIII exactly as I'd imagined him. Tim Spall as Winston Churchill? Puh-leeze.

Julian Assange needs to take a look at this thread.

Not on the alienware, on my gaming rig. I'm on a euro server, for some reason rift won't update me for a US one.

Getting a funky crash that's almost certainly a video card error. About once an hour. V. strange.

The annoying blonde girly geezer got molten metal poured on his head after the new queen feasted on offal. In other news, the dwarf admitted to whacking off into his sisters' soup. All in all, yet again, the great stallion has blessed us.

No, they are wearing hats with corks-on-strings on the brim, and are often called Bruce.

I live in London, where there are gazillions of them. Usually whining about the weather. So, yes, they exist.
