As an European my mind can't understand how the US hasn't either imploded or descended into a generalised state of social unrest. It's absolutely mindboggling how much its population endures

Or these two. A soundtrack of the year award for a 10 year old game, and a "continuous development" award for a game with no official multiplayer nor new content since its release...
And don't get me wrong, these are good games. Just very misplaced awards...

I did it boys, I beat Skyrim. More than 10 years after its initial release, I've finally 100% its achievements, killed the Ebony warrior and Karstaag. I can finally say that I've explored all its content. Just took me over 10 years...

Matthew Perry played my favourite character in Friends. Perhaps less known is his role as Benny in my favourite game, Fallout New Vegas.
As Benny puts in the opening scene, the game's rigged from the start. Indeed it is, for taking you away from us so early on.
Thank you for everything, Matthew.
