I never stopped. 0_0.

I rented it from Blockbuster when it was new and I haven't left the room since. Typing this with one hand on my Compaq laptop whilst I hold the controller with the other. Smoke coming from PS2. Don't know how much longer it'll last. Send help.

I've always liked the idea of mods that PC gaming can give access to, but there's just so much that can go wrong with a PC. My friend spent about a grand building up a fancy computer with all the RAM and a fancy processor, the latest operating system (windows has been rubbish since 7 in my inexperienced opinion), some fancy graphics card that cost about £300. It was an amazing bit of kit that he said would be able to play everything, even games after the PS4 and Xbox One.

Then he got a virus and the thing has sat in the corner for the last two years gathering dust as he plays on the PS3 I lent him. I think you have to have dedication and patience to game on a PC. With consoles you just plug them in and go, perfectly safe in the knowledge that it will play any game you pick up so long as it's in the right box.

Well you've got pretty much all of the customisable car games down. I still play Forza 4 today because the things you can do to the cars in that game (like full engine/drivetrain swaps) just make it a great thing to mess around in... Even if the tracks tend to be horribly bright at certain points for no reason. I believe Race Driver Grid had barebones customization of cars although I can't remember if it went anything past different paint jobs. There's also the F1 games, where you can't really change the appearance of the cars but you can feel the difference of every change you make to the setup, f1 2013 is my personal favourite of the last gen f1 games. That's about it, really. The Gran Turismo games on PS3 are great too, and the consoles can be quite cheap if put the time in to find a good deal.

Pre-ordering is for fools.

Rogue was much better than Black Flag in my opinion. Just for the simple fact that it didn't have so many effing "follow the target" missions, although both were really good. It's also an interesting change to play as the "bad guys". Something happens in Rogue due to the Assassins messing with precursor tech that they don't understand that forms the main character's basis for switching sides and after I experienced it I found myself questioning the true morality of the Assassins. Whilst the Templars are by no means good guys, Rogue let's you see that the Assassins can be just as destructive and ignorant and that the entire thing is far more complicated than just red vs blue. The sea combat and exploration in both games is pretty addictive too, so I'd definitely recommend both, but I just found Rogue a slightly more polished experience.

The College and Companions were soooooo boring. The Thieves Guild were OK but the Dark Brotherhood have been my favourites since I killed them all with poisoned apples in the name of Sithis in Oblivion. Always crazy but loveable characters who always have the sexiest leather work wear. XD

I remember this game from when I was a kid. The closest thing I had to a gaming pc was an old Commodore vic 20, so I'd never seen Doom or anything 'till years later. My cousin got an original Play Station when they were still brand new and this was the only game she had for the thing for months. The cheat code that made the butt enemies make realistic fart noises were the height of hilarity and we'd spend literal hours on the first level just cracking up and killing enemies with the hand drill.

It's a really weird game that you never really hear people speak about these days and I was pretty sure I'd hallucinated the entire thing 'till a saw a copy of it pop up in an episode of Lazy Game Reviews on Youtube a while back...
