Hmmm, I call myself a gamer, but I don't have time to play anything, while I know loads of non-gamers who spend hours a week on mobile games

I don't think the designers at #Lego thought this one through. Why #ObiWan, is that a lightsabre in your tunic?

Happy 12th day of #Christmas. Remember, this is the day you give your true love the most elaborate present of all (eg 12 drummers drumming)

One month on from #NaNoWriMo

#MerryChristmas to gamers everywhere. And remember, a game bought in the #SteamSale is for life, not just for Christmas.

Here's a nice overview of #DARIUSBURST_CS https://t.co/oipz3EYK4L.

Very excited to see #DARIUSBURST_CS on #Steam, but £30 is pricey. You can buy #Ikaruga, #CrimsonClover and #Mushihimesama.
