    Voice acting in videogames is rubbish

    You want to play something that feels like a film? Well good for you, I don't. Even if you do, how goofy is the voice acting in practically all games? Tremendous idiotizing mechanism, brings any and all experience down to sub pedestrian level. You are led down the narrowest of paths. There's no...

    Where do you stand on animal rights?

    I'm no Vegan psycho fundamentalist but I think there are a lot of problems with regards to how we treat animals and reading this article pissed me off https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/11/09/world/chimeric-monkey-live-birth-stem-cell-scn/index.html I think using stem cells is fine but fucking...

    Do you ever wish you could edit a particular piece of music, tweaking it a little to make it better?

    No? Well fuck you then . . So when Diamond Eyes came out by the Deftones I was particularly hooked on the track 976 Evil. I though it was just stunning, quintecential, everything that's good about Deftones. Years later...

    What region do your favourite English people hail from?

    Something about the geordies I can't help but like. The women can hold their drink and are funny. I have thought about visiting Newcastle many times, would probably go there above going back to London (too many dickheads) People from Cornwall seem really cool too

    Your favourite music collabs

    Not talking about the obvious and undoubtedly good Freddy Bowie thing. What stands out for you as something special. If you can share the song itself here even better. I'll give it a think myself too

    Ohms the new Deftones album

    They just put this out and I'm listening to it right now. I love it already. Feels streamlined and engaged. The last great album they put out before this in my mind was Diamond Eyes, with Gore being a misstep, hard to listen to for me. I would rate this higher than Diamond Eyes to be honest...

    Crazy Games and Warp

    Shinya Nishigaki and Kenji Eno... such amazing talents. I guess they stood out for me because what they released was mostly for Sega platforms. Blue Stinger and Illbleed where so broken and busted and yet I loved those games. Illbleed in particular is a weird spectacular mess. And the D, Enemy...

    What do you consider to be the most impressive looking-sounding-playing 32bit era game?

    Was watching Sega Lord X talk about Panzer Dragoon Zwei and it brought back memories. I'm hard pushed to recall a more impressive game in terms of the realization of the world the game is set in. It's not just a technical marvel, it's conceptually sophisticated to a degree that sets it apart...

    Any game have a special ending for 1cc' or fastest speed run?

    Since they are a thing amongst gamers these days, admittedly of older games, but I wonder if indie developpers have ever caught on to such an idea? The speed run thing would need online leader board access type thing. But well yeah was just wondering because yeah

    Game design superstars

    Was thinking about this the other day. The era of the game designer as some sort of celebrity seems to me to have passed. You still have Miyamoto touted as videogame pope, and assorted old school designers carrying their own weight, Kojima and the like. And then there's Hidetaka Miyazaki who is...

    Boris wins

    Was there any doubt this would happen? A strong win to boot. Corbyn was born to lose, as is Sanders. There's no place for these guys at the helm. Labour/Democrats will win when they find themselves another Blair/Clinton/Obama. Celebrity is everything.

    Giana Sisters Twisted Dreams

    Downloaded it from gamepass and from the get go enjoyed it a lot. Been a long time since I had fun playing a game. Such a nice mix of simple europlatform action with a brash look teetering on the edge of rusticity and saturated. Mindless oldstyle fun. Anything else of the sort out there?

    Interface the biggest hurdle for modern games?

    Was just watching something related to Last of Us 2 and I get the sense that these type of games are fundamentally immersive experiences where your success is or should be based on how well you tackle the terrain so to speak. There are games where the well regarded player is judged by their...

    Shenmue 3 finally starting to look amazing

    To me at least. The look of it is organic and I for one love the styled faces. Something classic and authentically Japanese about them. It's looking like it will be a well justified third outing for the series. Good times ]

    Rumor: Snipes might star in R-rated Blade movie

    I have been rooting for Snipes for a long time, he just hasn't done anything of worth since Blade 2. Reprising the Blade role in a Deadpool type film makes a ton of sense. And I for one find Snipes infinetly more funny than that other guy. Here's hoping
