Wow, it's been an age since I regularly posted on this site. Even then, 'regularly' is probably a bit of an exaggeration. So naturally, this being a gaming site, I'm here to list my favourite films of all time:

The Conversation (Francis Ford Coppola, 1974)
The Third Man (Carol Reed, 1949)
Barry Lyndon (Stanley Kubrick, 1975)
Badlands (Terrence Malick, 1973)
North by Northwest (Alfred Hitchcock, 1959)

Jaws (Steven Spielberg, 1975)
Mulholland Drive (David Lynch, 2001)
Punch-Drunk Love (Paul Thomas Anderson, 2002)
Fitzcarraldo (Werner Herzog, 1982)
2001: A Space Odyssey (Stanley Kubrick, 1968)

Thoughts? What are your favourite films?

People on this site aren't very friendly! I have an honest question and you just troll me.

Help! My PS3 caught on fire the other night. I had no choice but to poor a massive bucket of water over it. I had no buckets though so I repeatedly filled up a half empty can of Pepsi and poored it over the system. If I had not, the fire would have engulfed my Beiber CD collection. Now it wont turn on, any suggestions?

Quite frankly, I might have to report the console to Sony. Their systems are widely unreliable and break easily. My old Nintendo 64 worked fine with marmite in the cartidge holder. This is ridiculous and Sony better step up their game and make better hardware.

I had a ps3 60gig for about 2 years and then I got the YLOD! I got it back three weeks later, but it was scratched, so was my uncharted disc that was stuck inside! Gave it to GAME and they gave me a FREE ps3 slim with three games so it's all good now!

The animations suck and the graphics aren't daring (tbh killzone 2 was the same, it wasn't daring or colourful). I think they are much better than previous halo games and have the same shine as killzone but ultimately that game does have better graphics than reach. Of course this is my opinion.
