Someone needs to get their tape measure out and put this fridge-to-freezer ratio controversy to bed before it tears us all apart.

According to Curry's website it is 60/40 and they wouldn't lie to me I think they have. |

You're right the volume ratio is about 75/25 the height ratio is 60/40 Phew. Another case closed. |

Looking at Keef's top ten article, solid as expected, no surprises there. But the Guardian Pick! It's simply the first comment: "Horizon Zero Dawn is the best game ever made, bar none."
Now, I appreciate Horizon Zero Dawn as much as the next person, but isn't this a tad hyperbolic?
More like Horizon Zero Effort from the person responsible for Guardian Picks.

The Guardian Pick is a pretty random accolade and no way to measure your self worth, until you get one. |

It's not even hyperbole, it's just nonsense. Everyone knows the best game ever made is UFO: Enemy Unknown, this is just common knowledge. |

Never played UFO: Enemy Unknown. Too young.
Phoenix Point has me vigorously pumped, though. Uncontainable.

UFO was ok, but it was no Rebelstar Raiders.

It's nowhere near as pleasing as getting a letter published on the main letters page. That really does special things to the ego. |

I had this line in my quote still. I just didn't want lines ad lines of quotes
The quoting is cumbersome and unreliable.

Best game of all time? Theme Hospital surely? I've never even heard of this Horizontal Zero Dawn

The quoting is cumbersome and unreliable. If you select "Standard Forum Style" under Profile/Edit Profile/Settings you don't get all the nested quotes in your reply, just the last one, and it's much easier to edit. |

I saw about a new Theme Hospital being made. Basically a third party rip off of the original, but who gives a shit about that?

I've had a couple of things published in Viz, all of them plagiarised/stolen from other people.
Totally worth it
