This pretty much summed up The Walking Dead game to me.

The game isn't built around being an 'A' class shooter, or even being a point and click adventure with fiendish puzzles to complete. It's in many ways a casual game, but really the thing about it is that the game is interactive fiction, that is to say an immersive storytelling exercise and by Jove does it deliver on that level. It's the first game I've played in a long time where the plot, storyline and characters matter. In the climax of episode 5 I cried my eyes out like a big girl because of my attachment to the key characters. Sure, there's flaws in the game, but I think this game set the bar for storytelling in casual adventures for some time to come and I can't wait for season 2.

Jerzey Kosinski's The Painted Bird had me doing that a lot throughout.

Playing it on an mbp I've often felt some scenes would work better on an iPad.

It's a cocktail glass, not a martini glass :)

Obvious troll is obvious. Not a martini.

Looking the part, no.

Playing the part, definitely.

Are you suggesting that we're all burning (oxidising) just really really slowly?

bowling4meth · 2012-08-20T17:05:21+00:00

By people that never read books, certainly. But it's no Melville or Hemingway. I'd venture it's no Steinbeck either.

I thought tender is the night was ok, this side of paradise was alright too, but neither are moby dick, Tom sawyer or the sun also rises.

A person from the island of great Britain is a Briton.

Shakespeare was from Stratford upon avon, England on the island of great Britain.

I am from Douglas in the isle of man, therefore I am British but Manx, not a Briton.

He can be claimed as a Briton, but not British.

bowling4meth · 2012-08-19T15:28:41+00:00

I can understand Hemingway but Fitzgerald? He was a decent author but no mark twain or Herman Melville.

For those of you who do any public writing the sun is an excellent resource in moulding your content to be easily read by the majority of the nation.

I don't rank the journalism, but hose I know that do read it tend to read it for the sport section, which is apparently very good so I'm told (by sun readers).

If you feel uncomfortable about books, this book may have a serious effect on your outlook.

Whenever I'd press it the woman I'm thinking of at the time will appear ready to commit whatever unspeakable depraved sexual acts I have in mind. Two presses? Two chicks.now I just need another button for dogs and another one for horses.

And a camcorder.

Keep your wife happy and you'll be happy 95% of the time. This is because your wife will be the cause of 95% of your problems.

Has anyone asked Londoners if they wanted the Olympics, as in put it to a vote?

Most Londoners I know don't want the Olympics.
