This series has been promoted as a game with many possible outcomes where your choices matter (whereas art and film are largely not interactive mediums in this sense), with repeated interviews from senior staff reinforcing this. Plus it was painfully obvious, at least to anyone not working at...

There's one of the early Companion quests that has a Dwemer Centurion at the end, is this the one that got you? The game does scale enemies, but only within certain ranges (apparently more similar to FO3's). If it's any consolation, I've heard that mages get much easier as their level increases...

One pertinent point I've seen asks why the Reapers aren't just used to destroy synthetics if they become too dominant. Sovereign wasn't kidding in that ME dialogue where it mentions they're beyond our comprehension. I'm slightly worried about the face codes - for my Paragon(ish) full series...

Awesome, didn't cheat on Liara in ME2 despite Tali being generally awesome. Anyhoo, having played through ME and ME2 pretty much back to back over the last couple of months, I'm slightly scared to buy ME3. [There are my opinions on the endings below but no actual details, it really doesn't...

Thanks for posting this, the first paragraph of the synopsis had me chuckling. A nice post to see on the front page after seven months away from the site! No way I'm watching it though, 0:33 does indeed look... wrong.

I raised both my eyebrows in anticipation, such was the thought of how epic this could be.

Introductions please! ... even if you just use your forum names for fear of wrathful stalkers. Was it Professor Irony, VivisQueen and Arbalest? Can't comment on the content yet, realised it was really too late to stay up further soon after I started listening to it.

I have a strange desire to watch FotNS now and perhaps cry (manly) tears as I remember my distant youth. The movie though, as I don't think I can spare the time for the series. I realised with horror after about episode 9 that they had no time to properly wrap any of it up, so I can only hope...

TVTropes and xkcd... it's like a productivity black hole.

Deadman Wonderland I'm annoyed with myself that I even watched this all the way though. Decent art and character designs marred by pretty much everything to do with the plot and a male lead I want to punch in the face. I really wanted to like it, what with its twisted warden, wronged hero and...

I've been playing the hell out of S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl. Which is why I've not been around the forums much. The game's superb, wonderful atmosphere and a fair few moments that shocked me. Good modding community as well. Now I have a new PC and Call of Pripyat... and Fallout 3...

I worry about this whenever I see it's not Parcelforce - nearest Post Office is really close, but every other courier seems to have a depot in the public transport hell that is Trafford. Received my new desktop yesterday. Safe and sound, and significantly faster than its five year old...

Having completely failed to join in with the 1st GiG rewatch I'll make more effort to join in with this. My contributions may be limited though as the 2nd GiG's not going to be a rewatch for me and I hear it's slightly heavier going in terms of plot. I'll provide the layman's opinion!

So... my current desktop's about 4 years old, I'm running out of disk space and my monitor's knackered. What better excuse to upgrade? Am looking at this PC from Chillblast. Will be using it for video encoding and transcoding, hopefully more graphics work, general shennanigans and maybe a...

Took me a while to get that (it's been a long day). He wouldn't be alone in having short legs in this series either, from what I remember of some of the art. Side note: I assume that's not the aspect ratio you're watching it at? Need to do some major catchup with this, will be a good...
