• Spectrum Made Me

• Kylun 24/04/2012

  @varkdm I had the Spectrum 128K too... was awesome. The only 128k games I had for it was a 128 version of Daly Thompsons (I think!) and Carrier Command. Carrier Command was so immense. God knows how they managed to get it into 128K, even! Took about 10 minutes to load tho... Reply +1

  Well - you're all wrong! The AI isn't bad, or easy - in fact, it's almost criminally hard (that's not a complaint)!

• Nickelback singer slams Guitar Hero

• Kylun 21/11/2008

  God I fucking HATE Nickleback, but the guy kind of has a point. If everyone who spent the same amount of time playing real and learning guitars instead of playing what is essentially a poor copy of a guitar, we would have better musicians and possibly more bands to get excited about.

  Replace "playing what is essentially a poor copy of a guitar" with; "watching football", "playing football", "cleaning dishes", "picking their nose", "pulling their thumb from their arse", "fucking Michelle" or whatever the fuck you like, and the point is just as applicable, but highlights it irreverance.

  I'm in a rock band - one of 300 active bands in Brighton. We've upwards of 5 different practice studios which are always booked up to the rafters. Why do I not get the impression we're lacking in bands? Venues - possibly, promoters - definately, drummers - unfortunately. But not bands.
  
  Funnily enough, Guitar Hero has inspired me to actually learn the Bass, and is now doing the same for Drums. Reply 0

  Warhammer Battle is a table-top game - NOT a roleplaying game!
  
  Warhammer RPG is role-playing game!
  
  You can tell as there are clues in the name.
  
  Why is it game reviewers - people who are supposed to know about games, regardless of computer or not - can't distingish between two massively different types. It's like getting card games mixed with dice.
  
  This game can't display it's RPG roots, since *this* game doesn't have any.
  
  ... it's okay - I'm over it now... ;) Reply -1

• Kylun 11/08/2008

  Seriously - can anyone here claim that the lack of mass acceptance of games in the main stream media actually affects them in a non-positive way - at all?
  
  Otherwise - who cares? Reply 0

• Xbox boss speaks out on ratings issue

• Kylun 06/03/2008

  Lets invent a new rating system for every single different type of medium avaliable... having done that we could invent new rating systems for every time of delivery mechanism. Then after that, we could invent different rating systems based on genre, or possibly the type of art used on the cover of each box. Or maybe one based on the primary colour used on the art of the each box. And then, and then, and then....
  
  Or we all just use the BBFC - have a single source, with universally recognised symbols and standards. Reply 0

  So - if you like this sort of game, you'll like this sort of game. And if you don't like this sort of game, then you won't like this sort of game.
  
  Thats sorted then. *phew* Reply 0

  As gamers, who ever owns an X-Box AND a PC will buy Halo 2 for the X-Box and Half Life 2 for the PC. Can't see why you think it'll be more complicated than that! Reply 0

• SOE to revamp Galaxies Jedi system

  "Thing is you could end up with everyone following the rules and become jedi and you would end up with one very very pointless experience..."
  
  I expect they will keep it as difficult, but more relevant.
  
  I dunno what you lot are complaining about. If the old (crap) system was left in, you'd have something to complain about, but since SOE are obviously making a continued attempt to make the game better....? Reply 0
