It seems to me that the evidence that we are a country in terminal decline came along with the news story yesterday about an illegal immigrant breaking into a school for “unexplained reasons”. When the police had to release a statement about the matter, they said they were concerned for the...

I’ll be real with you chief, Mundus does not strike me as the kind of person to lower himself to fathering offspring with a human, no matter how much hybrid vigour they may hypothetically get from the union. Instead a more likely scenario to me is some human archaeologist stumbles across where...

The only thing that got me hyped through that entire Direct... Lets go!

Having to travel through three towns just to find a person capable of repairing my laptop was not fun. o_O

Clearly I read too many crime novels, as I was expecting having an honest to goodness stalker would bring about a sense of danger and excitement...but I was not prepared for the sheer banality of it instead. It probably doesn’t help that I am both an athletic man and nearly double the size of...

Okay grandpa, let’s get you back into the care home. :p

I have no doubt that given unlimited time, this government will reach it - after all Orwell’s “Ingsoc Party” that ruled the country in 1984 was a satirical abbreviation of the phrase “English Socialism” ;)

So after a court ruling that dictated that the government has broken the law in using hotels as a dumping ground for illegal aliens, the government has tried to appeal using this defence: At least they’re saying the quiet part out loud now. It’s good to know that it is not simply incompetence...

Inspired certainly, but to avoid being a carbon copy, it might be interesting to have him be morally ambiguous due to having an alien perspective on what “right” and “wrong” are, such as shooting innocent hostages captured by demons because more humans can be saved if he sacrifices the humans...

I’m experiencing serious internet withdrawals due to my laptop breaking during the recent heatwave and the fact that I can’t get it repaired until next week at the earliest. o_O

A new universe with a brand new cast of characters would run straight into the same criticism DmC faced - "Why not just call it something else then?" When you use a brand name like "DMC", you have to deal with an existing fanbase. This isn't about creating art for art's sake, these fans are...

In anticipation of Bananza's soon to be release, I have been doing a marathon of older Donkey Kong games - primarily all the ones available on the NSO service, which is DK '94, the DK Country trilogy and the DK Land trilogy of games. A lot of nostalgia, quality music and banana goodness.

Man, this heat really zaps your ability to do anything. o_O

I certainly appreciate no longer needing a magnifying glass to see my avatar. :ROFL:

If Morrison has a completely difference appearance between the anime and DMC5, it's fair to assume that not everything that went down in the anime is canon to the games. Therefore, I would like to see Sparda's apprentices Bael and Modeus encounter Dante and Vergil in Hell and seek out their...
