Turns out when they say ‘mind the gap’, they mean it - fell through the gap tween train and platform at Waterloo

A guy on my train looks EXACTLY like Michael Gove

Dunno whether to pity him, or punch him just in case

YouTube video by BrooklynVegan R.E.M. reunite: "Pretty Persuasion" with Michael Shannon, Jason Narducy & Friends @ 40 Watt Club

Michael Shannon, whom I know you love, is bizarrely touring the US as lead singer in an REM covers band

They were joined on stage by the original line up in Athens this week

I have tickets for Nottingham. So random.

Such a brilliant console

Had one since PAL launch but sold it two weeks ago cos I bought a donor and did a GDEMU mod

All that remains of my collection

YouTube video by Mortuary Gaming Resident Evil Meets Sherlock Holmes?! | Curse: Eye of Isis

What I love about YouTube is the desperation for content means decades later even something as deeply mediocre as the first game I ever made can find someone to say something nice about it :)

This was the game that made me choose a Nintendo console over the advertising juggernaut that was PlayStation

Still got the original receipt

I worked on the PSP version with 6x9

Funny story - ‘Red’ studio had disbanded leaving only one racing stupid at CM and nobody had the source code, so the PSP port was basically reverse engineered from a retail PS2 disc bought at Game, which is why it doesn’t run very well (uses PS2 lods)

I saw this on release and as a massive arcade fan it was like the wizard of oz for me 😂

Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake review – a mythic modern classic flies again Back for a 30th anniversary tour, the star choreographer’s signature wit and tenderness shine in this perennially haunting fantasy

I used to get taken to ballet recitals as a kid and I was bored senseless. In the last ten years I saw Swan Lake and Coppelia and while I could admire the discipline I didn’t really feel anything

Saw this on Friday and …. Holy crap it was absolutely amazing

Bought this from Nintendo at launch, love the console but find it a bit heavy, if I play it’s usually on the 2DS

Ryse: Son of Rome crunch tweet sparks Twitter furor Ryse: Son of Rome is at the centre of a social media storm today thanks to a flippant tweet about development crunch.

I will forever associate this game with this spectacularly bad bit of PR

The internet delivered with a sublime mockery of the cover art featuring the gladiator wielding a fork over a giant dinner plate

I bought this at launch for the older model Xbox (One X). It had only one major bug - you couldn’t back out of settings menu - which was quickly fixed

I played 130 hours with no crashes and it remains one of my favourite games of all time, a worthy tribute to the peerless Deus Ex
