Are you ignoring me?
I thought we had something special, discussing Naruto, talking about ow young and stupid I am, but now, you just never seem to talk to me anymore.
I… I thought…
Nevermind…
In actuality, I’ve sent you emails, which you haven’t replied to, have you been too busy, or has the spam filter eaten them?
-
Dude, I’m the worst emailer in the history of email.
I just wanted to reply to you and say that our bond will never be broken.

😀 I’m glad its not just me! Haha, nah, I’d say he’s just a very busy beaver and there’s a shit tonne of us wanting him to play with us, like a kid with a new toy. 🙂
I’ve found doing this sometimes works.

Sorry guys – no excuse, but I have been mad busy in the last couple of weeks. Getting ready for GDC, heading to Melb, writing stories blah blah blah.
[Offers massive group hug]

It worked!!!
😀Little worried about the cheese line thing…

Time for a shower…. *whitles*

I just sent you a work related email, you get?

Alright Marky-Mark, I forgive you (that picture above gave me a smile), I just wanted to make sure my correspondences weren’t being eaten by the spam filter, I’m not really worried about you replying late. I understand that you have a lot on your plate, being employed and all.
Cheers.

The inFamous 2 special editions were announced for Europe and the US, but no release date or price was given for Europe. I was wondering if you knew anything magical about this/can contact Sony? Cheers!
-
I’m almost 100% sure we’ll get them – but I’ll double check.
Those questions for Nintendo…. dead right?
-
We might have to hire you to go and hunt them down.
And remember, no disintegrations!

And watch out for Sarlacs!

Not dead. Just encased in carbonite. Forever.
Have you heard anything for SOE regarding the pricing issues in DC Universe? Particularly why the NZ PC gamers get to pay a US price?
-
Sorry – haven’t heard anything further. Sucks.
-
Spewing, although I pretty much figured that would be the case 😛

I think this is one of the few…serious questions on here: I’m 19, currently without a job and getting into uni. I have money though through savings and such (and I’m finding another job as we speak) but it seems that spending money on games is no longer a priority anymore, I have bills, food and uni expenses to pay off and now I’m feeling the crunch. I guess I’m growing up when it comes to the real world:/ my question is- at what age did you feel this? Because I still have friends who will actually postpone bill payments and the like for a video game that costs over a certain amount. I just hope that I don’t lose my passion for video games when I get older.
-
About age 8 for me. Grew up poor, was always trying to prioritise what to buy when I was old enough…

I think, like a lot of things, interest in games can be cyclical. There was a little period in my life between the tail end of the N64 and the release of the PS2 that I sort of drifted away for a bit. But you’ll always come back to it.
-
Noooooooooooooooooo!!!
That was my beloved Dreamcast’s time to shine!!!-
Msytery solved. It was Mark Serrels lack if interest that doomed the dreamcast to failure.

I’d go without food… you’d be surprised how long you can survive on 2 minute noodles and chewing your own nails.

I expressed my laughter vocally.

Mark, no offence but why is this called ‘Ask ME stuff’? When you actually only respond to like 10% of questions.
I can only assume your busy with other areas of the site and various others things, but maybe you should rename it ‘Ask me and others stuff and read inane banter that should be on Talk amongst yourselves and hope that maybe you’ll actually get a response to the question that you had been invited to ask.’
-
I just went through them all!
Sometimes when I’m approving comments I’ll answer them early, but generally I wait until about three when news slows down and answer them.
Mark: Are you still doing the ‘We Want Your Job’ article as a regular or has it slipped through the cracks?
-
Stop picking on The Cracks, he’s a stand up member of the Kotakommunity!
Mark!
Here’s a question about a specific game: What have you heard about The Old Republic and Australia? Will we be charged more than other territories for subscription (read: like every DC Universe)?
And will we have a dedicated server in our territory (read: unlike any MMO ever made except Runes of Magic, which was a terrible WoW knockoff)?
I know Telstra are awful bu-heeeey, there’s an article idea! Mark! Can you get interviews with Telstra/Internode/et al and speak about MMO servers and other local dedicated support? I’d love to hear them try to defend their rates when faced with how we have to go through Sydney, to the US, to Japan, then to Singapore to play on Battle.net (Starcraft II edition).

Also, do you think Major Nelsons top secret mission to Austin was to get The Old Republic on Xbox… the way PS3 has DCUO?
What happened to the “Tonight On Good Game” articles? I know that there are plenty of people that are too cool for Good Game since they gave Junglist the boot, but I still watch and enjoy it, and that article was always a reminder that it was on. In fact, I only found out by accident that it has been back for three weeks and has moved to Tuesday!
Hey Mark. What would actually happen if I turned the power off while the game was saving? Would the console explode and go up in flames? Or would I just lose that save? Either way, I’m totally over seeing that message…
You said in your previous posts that there was more information to come on your Bungie claims from last week.
Are you prepared to make good on that?
Or are you backing down? If so, don’t you think you owe them an apology?
-
I put up another post. I don’t think I owe them an apology.
Where am I going to get the best price for Bulletstorm today?
EB & JB both seem to be priced at $108/$109.. I’m loath to pay over $100 for a game.
-
Dick Smith… no kidding.
around 80 dollars…
