The image behind the text is a border that is dark blue with gold stars with a black background with neon blue border. An illustrated caticorn holding a pencil and writing in a book with a rose behind one ear is in the lower right corner. A different version of the same illustrated caticorn is curled up writing in the lower left corner.

I followed a guide 🤣
Back in the days when you had to buy them...
X-2 is brilliant I think it has 3 endings, of memory serves me right and I assume all the re releases do too.

Was devastated at the end of X, that when they announced X-2 I was right, finish this story properly...
Which they did if you got the good ending 🤣

When I first got a PC in around 1998, I discovered a love for point and click games over the next few years.
Broken Sword (all)
Gabriel Knight (all)
Monkey Island
Full Throttle
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
The Longest Journey
They were just brilliant games & masters in storytelling

Favourite PS1 game...
Has to be Final Fantasy 8, most will say 7 but to me 8 blew my mind when I played it around 2001

I played 7 in the 90s and really enjoyed it. Played 8 thought it was amazing.
I know people always say 7 but I genuinely think 8 was the best, followed by 10, 9 and then 7.
Think it was due to the relationship between Squall and Rinoa

Very strange the Quentin Tarantino clearly gets upset by critism when he's very forward with telling people what his opinions are on actors on films...
It's almost like he wants to give it and not take it...
Sounds a wee bit hypocritical to me...

The worst question I can ever be asked is "what's your favourite film of all time?"
This is my answer

As a kid, Willow was a film I loved.
So, I have to ask the question of what the hell were Disney doing with that TV show.
It was, poor.
It was, misguided.
It thought it was funny.
It thought it was edgy.
It completely missed want made Willow a great fantasy.
As for Hannah Waddingham's cameo...

What is the most bizarre book you've ever read?
Mine is probably The Incredible Adam Spark by Alan Bissett.
Written in Scottish dialect...
Took a while to get into, but thought it was brilliant. Highly recommend

It's Moores last name too.
He's Inspector Nolan Moores from Crow Lane police station...
While Silas is an expext in the occult.
The criminal is a cultist who had tried to kill Moores the night before...
It's a good name Moores

Was it wrong for police officers to get involved in a bit of criminal interrogation... When he leads to more violence or can it be justifiable?
