DID YOU BUY RAVEN'S CRY? SIGN THIS FORM TO GET RE-RELEASE FOR FREE

Did you buy Raven's Cry back in January? I'm sorry; I'm so, so sorry. The word on the pirate grapevine (that's a thing) is that Raven's Cry is a hot, sticky mess. (Have a read of the Steam reviews if you don't believe me.) Although it was delayed more times than I've had tepid, unappetising dinners, Raven's Cry obviously wasn't finished when it belly flopped onto land at the start of the year—which might be why it's being renamed, rejigged and re-released. Developer Reality Pump has described this upcoming re-release as the "completed" version of Raven's Cry, something you'll doubtless be pleased to hear if you paid forty odd quid for the buggy mess they've been flogging people since January.

And now, the surprise you want to know about:

http://www.tweaktown.com/news/48433/study-shows-pc-gamers-better-bed-console-players/index.html
Conducted by 'MyVoucherCodes', a website described as a "well-known gaming and sex authority," we have now come to learn that PC gamers are apprently much better in bed than those who prefer consoles.
Comparing the numbers, this poll saw 54% of PC enthusiasts gather a 'good' rating, followed by 22% rated as excellent. Close behind was Xbox gamers who ranked 47% in the 'good department', followed by a dismal 3% 'excellent' rating for PlayStation users. Besides an all-round rating of proficiency in the bedroom, 11% of respondents reported that they wished for less sex and more game time.
Now what you dirty console peasants!
