Sounds like a Vault-Tec design :D

Uh oh, I just lost my DA2 saves after reinstalling Windows, I'm actually dreading the thought of grinding my way back to where I was (about half way through)...grumble.

Eerie links between Harry Potter and Bin Laden Did Reuters find the one employee who wasn't working on a Bin Laden story and tell him to think of any old ****?

Very austere, that's how most of us in the west will be living in a few years...minus mansion.

My preferred military death machine is better than your preferred military death machine, nehh nehh

Ah balls, I never even thought about that, because the world needs another military circle jerk blockbuster.

Here's an interview with Todd Howard, not much new info apart from cities definitely being walled off with loading screens, the odds of levitation coming back just went down

It's good to know everything is fine again, we are absolved of our collective sins

Spent the last few days nursing an infected hole where a wisdom tooth used to be, I kept busy fitting a Corsair watercooler and getting my overclocked CPU 12hrs Prime 95 stable

I was too poor to have a NES when I was a kid, luckily my brother's missus worked in Rumbelows and I got to play on them quite a lot, I remember playing Castlevania and Mario 2 in there for hours.

Yeah I heard something about dodgy analog sticks, best to hang back a while and watch, I'm getting bigtime geeklust over the idea of full speed Amiga games on a handheld though.

New Eurogamer preview.

I don't think Sony can do much about it, as far as I know it doesn't come pre-loaded with emulators, it's just a little Linux PC I'm going to be good and resist temptation for now, even if it can play 99% of all the games I've ever loved

Glad you noticed, yes, inside I'm a furious cauldron of rage

Yep?

That's pretty annoying news, I was happy to hear about Sony getting bloodied over the PS3 jailbreaks but this is going too far, it seems like actual criminality rather than "freedom fighting".

I stopped keeping up with Pandora news ages ago but now they actually exist, designed and manufactured (mostly) in the UK; it will run pretty much every emulator in existence...want.

I'm not so attached to installing a game from disc, being unable to stop Steam updating games however is *very* annoying, the fact that there's a menu option which gets ignored only adds insult to injury.

Fallout 3 had a large amount of hand placed loot, hopefully they'll continue the trend.

Doesn't work. For a lot of people. It resets itself and starts downloading anyway. That's been my experience

I just completed the single player mode, brilliant pacing of humour and gameplay all the way through, there's not many games that can make me laugh these days but I was giggling all the way, sharp stuff. *edit* It has a satisfying ending too.

Any good news about stability and performance?

I notice they've added Portal 2 to the Valve Complete Pack on Steam, the price is still

I don't know the gory details but it seems to me that Valve brought personality and storytelling to Narbacular Drop's mechanics, without GladOS, cake and Still Alive I couldn't imagine Portal being a success, so they really did more than just slapping a Valve logo on the tin.
