Popularity has nothing to do with it. It's a great game. Music reminds me of Amiga era. Character design is stupid in a good way. Tracks are short and out of control (early on at least - they get more complex).

It supports online and DLC too, so hopefully future support continues.

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.

That is because you are a heartless bastard leaving all your poor co-workers to their slow demise without you. They know their reckoning is soon to be at hand all because you refused to continue to lead the troops into battle. Sad panda.

I've gotten a few emails this week about people being pushed out of jobs in Perth for "restructuring". I don't give 2 shits since it has nothing to do with me and I don't know why they are sending me all these emails. At least once a day there is a blanket email from Clayton office with a title like "Womans scarf found in the parking lot. Can be claimed from reception if yours". Please guys, we are in Warrnambool. There is no point having us on your damn mailing lists.

Korean DMZ/JSA was pretty cool. Got to cross over to the North Korean side within the conference room. The 'rock' guards on the South side are huge.

Fuck I hate looking through houses (to rent). It's an exercise in heart break. It's easier to get a job than it is to rent a house.

Exactly. I loath it. I really need to get my documentation together and not leave it to the last minute.

And if there's spoiler thread titles you guys are concerned about, tell me so I can fix them.

If anyone in Brisbane actually wants a copy of Killzone 3, Myer have it for $10. They had half a dozen more out back when I was there.

I had the easiest time getting this place a month or two ago. Pretty much showed I have a full time job and walked into the place. It was great.

That said Ipswich isn't exactly high class.

It was my first ever time looking for a place too, is it really meant to be hard?

Just do what I did, apply for apartments in areas that are likely to only have students and art majors apply!

I HAS A JOB, THEY HAVE A PAINTBRUSH.

So the rumour is that Visceral in Melbourne are done.

I hate this stupid games industry.

Edit: I shouldn't be surprised after Visceral did some top quality games, which is a guaranteed way for you all to get fired after the game ships.

Westwood Studios :(

What were the Melbourne studios responsible for? Never even knew they existed, thought Visceral was only in Redwood.

Edit: Holy balls! New Archer! Also Sunny in Philly for those still into it.

They did the amazing Dead Space on iOS. From memory they did Mirror's Edge iOS too which was also fantastic.

I'm not a fan of the Dead Space games but holy crap, they did very good stuff on that system. The iPad version in particular looked great.

Edit: The last time I posted on GAF about what games a defunct studio did I got quoted by Gamasutra as a "trusted industry source". FFS you could have done 5 minutes of research and figured it out yourself.

I'm going to draw a Brendan Brewer comic tonight, either about TGS or him writing about a game development studio being shut down.

I am a bad person because I did not know that Visceral had a studio in Melbourne.

I feel terrible for everyone that works there, if this turns out to be true.

First time I moved out, I randomly caught up with some mates for lunch one day at work, then went and looked at a house. Applied the same day and got it 5 days later.

Second time I move out, housemate's dad was a real estate agent, so we got an awesome house with no need to fill out an application.

=P

Anyone know how to scrob to last.fm from Winamp on Android? Can't seem to get it working, even trying a few different apps. It sends the notification of a new song being played but won't scrob.

Also GameTrailers runs really poorly for me even though Youtube loads instantly. Also DmC looks like a pass, art design is fantastic though.

Anyone here big fans of Doctor Who? (the new stuff in particular I mean)

I like how each season they have a hidden thread that doesn't come into play until the last episode, pretty much making it look like either a Deus Ex Machina, or a cleverly laid counterplan by the Doctor. Stuff like Bad Wolf for example.

Anyway, I think Ive figured it out for this one and it's only 2 episodes in to the 2nd half. (ie whatever ABC has shown)

I'll put this in spoilers here. First of all it involves two specific enemies. Think along the lines of Daleks or Cybermen but (not them). ie:
The Flesh and The Silence

Basically this is what I think:
The Silence were said to be responsible for keeping the Doctor from asking 'the question'. I forget if that was revealed in an episode or a preview but it was on ABC.
The Silence aren't following the Doctor - they are following every human
Anyone who sees the Silence forget once they turn around
So I think that it must be the Silence are there to stop the people from learning something.
ie it will be humans who are asked the question by the Doctor

So basically, what I think will happen is that:

(Big, speculative spoiler)

It will be revealed that all humans are unknowingly Flesh

I started watching Doctor Who earlier this year and I love it. I'm in the latter half of season 5 now so I can't discuss any season 6 stuff heh.

Karen Gillan is hot.

Started Who last year and after season 5 went back and watched all the Davies era stuff. A fair bit of rubbish but some gems in there too. Moffat knows what he's doing. I have faith.
