We’re coming up on expo season here in Joburg. There are a bunch of cool ones at The Dome and Gallagher Estates. In fact, I will be attending Sexpo soon, as press. Sometimes I wonder how I ended up with this job…
As much as our ION image is a tall glass of nope for me (I have zero desire to put a hot curling iron next to my eyeball), I understand that it’s our very own JJ’s birthday today. So here’s a tool to help when applying all that eyeliner.
In other news: Quake gets Steamy, Destiny’s raids take ages and Goat Simulator comes to a tablet near you.
Here’s all the news we didn’t post today because we were too busy distinguishing between fans, fanboys and fanatics.

If Obi-Wan Kenobi gets his own movie then Qui-Gon Jinn has to be in it as well, oh please let Liam Neeson reprise his role.

Does that Orc have gold teeth? They must have filmed it in the Cape Flats.

That’s insane! Not a single WoW raid takes that long… unless if you’re absolutely SHITE at the game.

Think that might not be actual time taken, but rather how long the event was open for before completion (would be equal if they played non-stop :D).
Hammersteyn
September 17, 2014 at 17:02
I kinda meant it’s longer that the SP campaign but yeah, imagine they had to do it in one sitting O_o

Really? Microsoft couldn’t have done a wireless Xbone Controller for PC? means I have to stick to my 360 pad which still is fine , just want those extra vibrations.

Damn Zoe… how is a “gaming journalist” getting into Sexpo as press?
Oh… wait… just thought about it… nevermind… O_O
Mark Treloar
September 17, 2014 at 17:13
Its because she likes the vibrating triggers on the Xbone controller?
JJ the Reus
September 17, 2014 at 16:32
Thanks. I guess. 🙂
So much for feeling like a badass while playing Splinter Cell.
