    What to do in LA? Visiting USA for the first time

    I landed in LA last night. Holy shit, America's actually real! Been walking around going "this place is INCREDIBLE" because it's off the telly and that except I'm actually here. It's like finding out Narnia actually exists. Any suggestions as to what I should do? I've already eaten Cheetos in...

    FTL: Faster Than Light

    Apologies if there's already a thread, did a search and found nothing but I thought you guys would be aaaall over this wee gem: http://www.ftlgame.com/ It's a strategic RPG/sort of roguelike space combat and exploration game with permadeath. And it's utterly brilliant, and cheap as hell...

    Curiosity: What's Inside the Cube?

    Y'all aware of Fable creator Peter Molyneux's new baby? A "social experiment" rather than a game, in which everyone in the world (or, y'know, everyone who downloads the free app) taps away at a massive virtual cube made of billions of tiny virtual cubes. At the centre of the cube lays a prize...

    Benny Harvey R.I.P

    Man, I can't believe the guy's gone. Gonna miss ye big yin :( Haven't been able to think straight today. Just can't accept it.

    Fable 3 official! (Molyneux - Gamescom '09)

    I know it was given, and it's been heavily hinted at, all-but-confirmed by Peter himself and even accidentally confirmed by Jonathan Ross of all people. But it was officially unveiled today (less than an hour ago at time of writing!) at Gamescom '09...

    Timothy Dalton Speculation (spoilers)

    ***POSSIBLE SPOILARS GTFO*** Most of us will know that Timothy Dalton is going to be in Tennant's finale story, End of Time. He is apparently playing a Time Lord, having been spotted in the appropriate garb. So, for a bit of fun, I'd like to know what folks theories are as to who he is...

    Favourite Gaming Podcasts?

    There's hundreds of them. It seems that 6 out of 10 internet users regularly present one... sometimes. Most of them are shit, but here's my cream of the crop: Joystiq's Xbox 360 Fancast http://xbox.joystiq.com/tag/fancast It's a load of tosh and nonsense, but often quite informative and I've...

    Torchwood: Children of Earth DAY FIVE FINALE grading thread

    This is it folks, the biggy. It all comes down to the final part. Will RTD deliver a shocking, life affirming, awe inspiring belter of a conclusion or will he spunk it up the wall as usual (:devil:)? Find out tonight @ 9pm on BBC1 and BBCHD. I can't chuffing wait!

    Daggerfall (Elder Scrolls II) now free & legal to download

    Excellent news, I've been hoping they'd do this for ages (because I certainly wasn't paying £50+ for it on Ebay). Get it HERE from the official Elder Scrolls website (ps thanks to BobTheSkutter for telling me about this in the first place)

    Torchwood: Children of Earth DAY FOUR grading thread

    **SPOILERS** What do The 456 want with human children? How deep is Jack's involvement? Will Rhys get to finish his beans? Find out (or not) in part four of this SPECTACULAR TELEVISUAL EVENT in FULL COLOUR.

    Torchwood: Children of Earth DAY THREE grading thread

    **probable spoilers** (I see now that it was maybe a bit silly to do this in 5 different threads, but screw it - to hell with sensible!) Y'all know the drill. Looking forward to tonight's part, will we finally be able to put a CGI/animatronic/prosthetic (delete as appropriate) face to the 456?

    Torchwood: Children of Earth DAY ONE grading thread

    Tonight, BBC ONE & BBC HD @ 9pm http://www.bbc.co.uk/torchwood/ "When every single child on Earth stops, Torchwood is thrown into a world of terror."

    Broken Sword Director's Cut - Wii question

    I've recently restarted the original PC version, but I've been wanting to get the Wii version for a while now - is it worth it? There is a new 2 hour (or so) subplot and many interface/graphical tweaks, which makes me sorely tempted, but I just want to know if that warrants a re-buy. Does...

    Red Faction Guerrilla: Getting my ass to Mars

    Who else has Red Faction: G? I got it yesterday and played it for a good 6 hours, barely scratching the surface. It's damn good. The destruction engine, obviously the selling point here, makes this game one of the best sandboxes I've ever played. Got 5 minutes to kill? Level that building...

    Eve Myles expecting - that kid will be gorgeous!

    http://www.drwho-online.co.uk/news/Default.aspx#general-evemylesexpecting Forgive me, for I appear to have overdosed on estrogen this afternoon. But good for her, I'm sure she'll be a great mother.

    Matt Smith signs 5-year deal

    ...which locks him into 3 years, and gives the option of another 2. http://blog.wired.com/underwire/2009/02/doctor-who-matt.html Perhaps this will stop the bullshit speculation that he's a "fake" 1-episode Doctor, or that he'll be dropped after one season, or... Nah, what am I saying. I'm...

    Minor 360 dashboard update causing RROD (supposedly)

    http://www.electricpig.co.uk/2009/02/05/xbox-360-update-causing-rrod/ http://www.reghardware.co.uk/2009/02/06/nxe_patch_rrod/ I'm a bit skeptical that such a tiny fix for a less-than-ubiquitous problem is causing such a critical hardware failure across the board, but it does seem to have...

    Davros in 2010?

    I think it's safe to say we haven't seen the last of Davros, or indeed, the Daleks (will we ever? No!!!). But I'm wondering, do you think we'll see him again under Steven Moffat, perhaps in series 5? I'm hoping we will, I'd love to see what Grand Moff does with the character. What I'm hoping...

    New companion speculation! (Lily Allen?!?!!?)

    And the search begins: http://www.gallifreyone.com/news.php#newsitemEkFEEVkpEuZwosjtFF Some have taken this to mean "Lily Allen" (as the OG article heavily mentions). The idea of Lily Allen in the Tardis - well, I'll admit it, it fills me with dread. But, insert standard "but Catherine Tate...

    When will Moffat's s5 start filming?

    Does anyone have any idea? I'm guessing it has to be this year, surely. And as soon as it goes into production, it'll become almost impossible for them to keep Doctor 11's casting a secret. Really I'm hoping we find out within 8 months. What say you? I'm just so damn excited I can't contain...
