"I have the urge to watch DOA again "

I just did for the first time a few weeks ago, it wasn't nearly as bad as I had expected. Oh, and thanks for linking to that Kiss Kiss video Ellie, I distinctly remember being very fond of that one :p.

And yep, nice interview, let's have more of those in the future.

good, not as good as the last one though, but i suspect that's because this was done over telephone, and its hard to get a good rapport flowing over the phone

I used to well like Holly Valance when she was in Neighbours. Kinda gone downhill with age. Her terrible acting in Prison Break dodn't help.

If I had gone to school in Australia, I'd be sweeping the streets, or picking celery or something. There's no way I could concentrate on lessons with all the girls in those uniforms they wear.

'Originally I thought I was interviewing you on camera, and I'd hoped to wear an Erinsborough High uniform

But my Erinsborough uniform was so small, and tailored in at the seams - everything was hugging you, you know?

Yes, I do know.

Holly Valance Career Option 1: Playing bimbos in godawful TV shows

Holly Valance Career Option 2: Playing bimbos in godawful Computer games (albeit ones that once had some respectability)

Holly Valance Career Option 3: Curing cancer or helping those in need

Think before you choose, Holly.

'So by that logic, are you saying that I, Ellie Gibson, am fitter than you, Holly Valance?' Ellie channeling Alan Partridge there - a good thing :)

It shows you just how far ahead of the curve I was. I said years ago they should interview antipodean babes and today my dream has been realised. Hopefully Isla is up next.

Next we need a babe of the day feature and a tab at the top for a 'Page 3' section.

This. Quit it with this shit.

This website is on a horrible downward spiral between this kind of crap, shitty indie dev interviews, reporting week old news and the faceoff flame-bait page-hit crud that appears occasionally.

i only seem to comment when this Ellie posts on Eurogamer... i just don't like her style

If i could do 'Ignore Poster' on the editors of the site i would be quite happy! Is that possible?

How come it is always Ms Gibson who seems to interview all the hot models/actresses etc? Would this possibly have something to do with gamer guys probably not being able to construct a complete sentence when talking to girls like them (or just girls in general)? ;-)

There was a bit of a furore on account of how you could almost see your Coco Hernandez...

My mum made a birthday cake for Benny Hill the year before he passed. It's almost like I've kissed Holly Valance...

It's a Monday morning. All the radio talks about is recession. I have a look at Eurogamer during coffee and see the image of Holly Valance to brighten things up. Works for me, EG. Any chance of putting her image on the masthead? :)

To all of you lot moaning about the interview and the Nuts website and all that - what did you expect when you clicked on the link? If you don't like it, don't click it!

But it's just fucking embarrassing that EG think this is worthy of an article. The more shit interviews they put up, the more they're driving me away from the website.

Embarrasing for who? obviously not EG, as half the people in here liked it, and the other half have still clicked just to tell them it's shit... If you don't like it, the simple answer to to fuck off. No-one's asking you to sit about being jolly.

Too many people with sense of humour bypasses... For god's sake, it's supposed to be a bit of fun. Get over yourselves will you.

I like these interviews, makes a nice change and gave me a laugh on a boring Monday morning. Keep em up!

If EG are trying to build themselves up to become a credible website, this isn't the way to do it. Would Edge do this interview? No.

Yeah, Edge take themselves way too seriously for my taste.

Which is probably why I don't buy them and hang out here.

That, and the vibrant community, of course.

I used to like Ellie's style of writing, but it got really old really fast. Her review of those Hasbro games was comedy gold, but this is just the same old style we've seen from her dozens of times.

Oh yeah, and interviews with hot chicks who are only tangentially related to gaming suck. Especially if the actual interview hardly even covers the subject of gaming. If I want to know Holly Valance's opinion on her music videos or Neighbours career I'll buy a tabloid, Engadget.

bollocks, we could look elsewhere if we want to see this sort of airheaded shiterature.
Eurogamer needs to stop its obsession with shitty music games and celebrities.

Agreed, but it'd be good if it was actually a funny article about gaming, rather than about crappy pop music and celebrities that I can get by turning on MTV.

But sure, let's do a funny article about turtles next. Because, you know, there are turtles in Mario games. And there's a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game. It's totally gaming related!!

I like that Eurogamer is mostly lighthearted, if i'm in more of a thoughtful beard-stroking mood I tend to check out gamesindustry.

Oh and if you're going to continue the loosely connected hot-women-to-games interviews might I recommend Louise Redknapp from the Wii ad's. Perhaps you could include videos of her playing Tennis. In slow motion. In her pants.
