Jesus. In my mulitplayer game, my 2 mates decided to try and take my empire. They started slowly advancing their units to my border while I built my defenses. And then for around a dozen turns we were seeing who would make the first move. Probably the tensest moment I've had on civ. Turns out they have way more units than i expected and I'm utterly fucked.

Washington and America can fuck right off.

First we make an open borders/strategic resources deal. Then he has the balls to declare war on the civ with the most advanced military in the game. But he catches me off guard and takes down a few of my units. When I show my full might, he panders to me like a little bitch and starts offering deals. No, fuck you Washington. I was going for a science victory but now I'm razing your empire to the ground.

Glad to see everyone I want to run over in this game is getting it on 360.

But seriously, who the hell are Sleeping with Sirens?

A terrible band.

Actually

Sleeping With Sirens are better than your favourite band.

CAN'T ARGUE WITH THAT

But seriously, who the hell are Sleeping with Sirens?

The fact that it doesn't feature Axl Rose

Just brought the Witcher 2. Is it good? Am I in for a good time?

Some tidbits:

“Will we ever see some GTA V gameplay?”

Yes. Soon (or in September if you don’t want to see it before you play it… it’s up to you) – the first Official Gameplay Video is on its way...

“Hello Rockstar, I have a question: how much difference will there be between the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game?”

Players can expect the same great gameplay experience on both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 platforms as they have both been developed in tandem. Like all of our games, trust that we’re committed to making sure Grand Theft Auto V looks and runs as great as possible regardless of whether you pick it up for PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360, and we are excited for fans on both platforms to experience Grand Theft Auto V this September. We expect any visual differences to be completely negligible.

To quote Charlie Brooker on Twitter;

The PS4's nauseating "social" features look set to transform gaming into a ninny's Facebook account with a joystick glued to the front.

This argument is so fucking irritating. It's optional, you can turn it off completely, and you can do it for all the other consoles as well. But of course, me wanting to socialize with friends makes me some fucking prole from 1984. I love Charlie Brooker, but he's wrong on this point.

All of Skummy's talk about octodad recently makes me want to play octodad.

And I've just seen someone trot out the 'I guess you could say Microsoft has done a 360 on their DRM policies.' line.

Jesus, it's fucking depressing that people don't understand basic logic like this.

Anyway, props to microsoft (hopefully) for backpedalling on this. It was still a shitty move but at least this whole debacle should be over.

Normal people who have done nothing wrong can still be wrongly banned and lose ALL OF THEIR GAMES THAT THEY PAID FOR. That's why it's an issue.
