  1. And Vale lost the last game of the season 😥😥😥
    And Tom Pope might be leaving… if anyone knows who that is, they'll understand…

    Btw if people are weirded out by me posting the football results every week, I'm from "Stoke-on-Trent" and Port Vale are my team here.

  2. Powerful moments? In no particular order. (SPOILERS)

    1. Anything in Mass Effect of course. For obvious reasons many were impactful.

    2. Dom reuniting with, an about to die, Maria (Gears of War 2). I wasn't married at the time but I couldn't imagine what it would be like if what happened to me to find my future wife like that.

    3. The ending of Bioshocks "Would you kindly" thing blew my mind.

    4. Portal in general made puzzle games super entertaining instead of just frustrating.

    5. Spec Ops: The Line. That game was amazing because of its view of PTSD as a soldier.

    6. The Walking Dead. Lees ending. (sobs)

  3. I've only recently got into rouge/rouge-like games. I don't love them really, but there are a few that I enjoyed. Spelunky (my first one), Neon Abyss, Fury Unleashed, Undermine and most recently Children of Morta. That last one had me crying alot, it was more than just a game, it was a beautiful story.

  4. Ben, you should check out the free Portal addons "Mel Stories" and just recently Portal Reloaded. There's also a Portal Revolution come out next year. All these are free.

  6. My most impactful moments would probably be

    1) Ending of the last of us 1

    2)Would you kindly

    3)And end of walking dead season 1

    THAT scene from last of us 2 is probably the moment from a video game with the most raw emotional impact tho. There are also probably some moments I'm forgetting to.

  7. This might be kind of niche, but my favorite in-game song is the Digby Vermouth song that plays during the Katagawa Ball fight in Borderlands 3. That song is literally on my party playlist.
