    What more would you like from Pokecharms.com?

    It's a fun idea, and technically workable on some level, but it'd require a lot of effort from someone a lot better at spriting than I am to be able to provide all the material for it. The nature of submitting trainers as it stands now also probably wouldn't work in that situation due to the...

    Your most recent purchases/preorders

    Need to preorder the Skyward Sword bundle, 'cos that Wiimote is the only thing that can possibly soften the burden of having to buy a new Wiimote JUST for this game. Other than that, I think Deus Ex is definitely in my sights for my next game.

    See, I'd originally thought that Batman stood no chance at all - but he did say he'd researched Supes, and clearly knew enough about Green Lantern to not be fazed by the fact he was smashing things with a giant glowy fire truck illusion thing. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he'd already...

    Double post, because I can. I decided, since it's a time of experimentation in the comics world this next month or so, that I should join in with a little experiment of my own. So, I bought this week's new Justice League #1. Digitally. The new DC 52 obviously brings with it day and date...

    The Post Your Thoughts of the Moment Thread

    Registered with medical practice down the road a couple of weeks ago. Got given a first appointment date of 30th September and that was that. Get a letter today saying I'd missed my appointment and that they weren't going to register me as a result. Cue me calling up to enquire if Time Travel...

    So, Ultimate Hawkeye hit the shelves today. This is the book I was most looking forward to from the relaunch. While I think there's a lot more meat to come in the next 3 issues, I definitely wasn't disappointed in seeing Hawkeye take his place at the forefront of the Ultimate Universe. Really...

    Should I Get an Xbox?

    General Comics Discussion Thread

    It's my understanding that the first arc of Ultimate Spider-Man actually takes place both before and after the Death of Spider-Man. The concept basically being that Miles falls into these powers somehow before DOSM and after that happens, he's inspired to take on the mantle. Bendis made a point...

    Should I Get an Xbox?

    If you haven't owned an Xbox 360 or a PS3 at all by now, the reality is that the PS3 at this point serves better value to you. It plays the majority of the same games as the 360 AND is pretty much the best Blu-Ray player you can get ('cos Sony monopolise the updates for it, thus making sure the...

    I see no reason to see getting the Hawkeye mini as a bad thing. :X A Hawkeye mini is one of the best things to come out of this entire line in a while.

    I think even for a standing reader, it's a bit much. I think that's kinda the point though. You feel overwhelmed, because Nick feels overwhelmed. There are a few ties back to recent continuity (the Asgard situation is pretty much an extension of the Thor mini's storyline, even if it's...

    Also, please no-one actually post the 'correct' response, 'incorrect' response, or whatever. Leave it as a blind vote, please.

    Grammar Vote!

    I'm a language nerd. That's the sole background you're getting for this poll for the time being. I'll explain after a suitable number of votes. Please vote without checking a dictionary, or the internet or whatever - just answer which of these three words you write/use/feel is the correct word...

    General Gaming Discussions

    Gave Xenoblade Chronicles a go today. Yup. It's definitely a JRPG. Overcomplicated plot, with a note-for-note standard opening, a confusing battling mechanic that's explained to you by walls of meaningless text rather than, y'know, a proper tutorial mode or anything and the blandest possible...

    Pokecharms WFC Pokemon Online Server

    Wow, that's a mouthful. Anyway, I know a number of people here already use Pokemon Online - a pretty useful simulation tool for creating new teams and trying them out virtually before training them up for reals - and now those people have a new place they can call home, and so can you! :) I've...

    What more would you like from Pokecharms.com?

    I still watch it, I just don't comment on it because by the time I get around to watching the episodes, they're a number of weeks old. And again, it really falls to the fact that there just isn't the drive or need to cover the anime on the main site that we don't. I don't really see what a...

    Ultimate X-Men #1 has moved back to its original date of the 14th September, meaning that from this Wednesday, there will be at least one new Ultimate comic every week until October, where there's presently a week's break - but that may change if they bring X-Men #2 back a week too. This site...
