Ill be sure to raise these issue with The Edge editor over lunch.

Seriously? Whaaaaaat? LOL. Can you tell me what a "serious" gamer is?

These days I guess it's "people" (using the term loosely) who make death threats to random developers when their favourite noobtube in the shootym'ns-game-du-jour gets an 0.02 second longer reload animation.

If the web had never been invented what would you do?

Not write this.

Where is the best place to go in Yorkshire?

Depends what you want to do? What do you have in mind?

Serious gamer; contradiction in terms.
That aside, I'm too busy playing a game to read a magazine about a game.
Doesn't that prove seriousness?

That also applies to Twitch.

I have never been North of the Watford gap. You tell me. What is its USP? Socialise with locals.

That also applies to Twitch.

You see that's another thing I really dont understand, people watching other people playing a game. Although saying that I do remember looking over peoples shoulders whilst they clocked Defender had a school mate who used to do it.

Watching a review on Youtube I do understand, but twitch I've never understood. I will however confess to watching one You Tuber who was streaming a game I was interested in.

That was English sense of humour also very ordinary.

There is also a tendency to write one thing and think something else.


I used to write video game reviews so know the score.

Aaah ! Very good

Same here. He got more pocket money than me.

I could give an equally apt comparison but it would probably be moderated and gain infractions so I ll just leave it up to ones own imagination.

this thread has gone so off topic. Not that it was on it in the first place.
