Look, we're know that you're busy trying to finish The Witness, but can you forget about line puzzles for five minutes, please? Our not-so intimidating overlords at Gamer Network have concocted a right stonker of a survey, and kindly asked us to gently nudge it in your general direction. We really, really need your help with this, because it's your voices that will help shape the future of the site.
Completing the questionnaire will take just a few minutes, but will help us immeasurably, so please do give it a go if you've got a moment to spare.
As a reward for sharing your time, we'll provide each and every one of you with a picture of a custard cream, which you're free to print out and pretend to eat whenever you feel hungry. Let it never be said that we're cheapskates again.
Seriously, though, stuff like this really helps us to grow, so you'll be doing us a massive favour by filling out the survey. It's not often that we go all corporate on your buttocks, but sometimes the men in suits tell us that we have to do these things. And seeing as we blew last year's annual budget on a bouncy castle – it was one of those ones with a slide and a ball pool – we figured that we should probably do as we're told for once.
You can find the survey through here. Would you kindly fill it in? Thank you so much.

Just completed it. Bad marks all around. Improvement needed in 2016.
@Gamer83 Yes, sir. (Thank you very much!)
Done!
Done, and done. Although I will say it was rather lengthy and mostly non sensical unless they planning on adding a ridiculous amount of advertising to this site. (Please dont). Anyways, did my good deed for the day!
You tease us with Custard Creams at a time when they are in short supply! I think that is unfair
Done - although I do think there were some errors in the options and I don't think a lot was relevant to me...
Done it!
When will I get my custard cream?
Or that was a lie too?
Done. I expect my idea of an Atlus convention to come to fruition
Done and when does E3 start in my home town? Thanks for the custard cream
Done. And I expect GameBinge, a fusion of the finest craft beer, pizza, deli meats, and retro gaming, to be announced shortly.
Reward? Finding out what "Stonker" means. New word learned!
I just hope it is not a "Stinker" and you missed the keyboard, as those letters are right next to each other...
You should have rented Brian Potters lewd bouncy castle, would've been much cheaper I'm sure. If you guys are taking suggestions I'd like to put forward a blanket ban on all things T*yl*r Sw*ft.
done! I enjoyed filling in the survey.
Done but as othe people have said there were some questions not needed
@TripleGK Thank you.
@Mergatro1d Thank you.
@SonyInfinity Thank you. Don't worry about OTT advertising - not going to happen.
@dryrain What are you talking about? There's one right on this page. Thank you!
@BAMozzy Thanks for filling it in all the same.
@Melucine Read the small print: As a reward for sharing your time, we'll provide each and every one of you with a picture of a custard cream, which you're free to print out and pretend to eat whenever you feel hungry. Thanks!
@Cowboysfan-22 As do I. Thanks.
@carlos82 You're welcome, thanks.
@Johnnycide Get me a ticket. Thanks.
@sinalefa A stoking big thank you.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Banned. (Thanks)
@darkswabber Awesome, thanks.
@SKC_Diamond Cheers for filling it in. Didn't write the survey so don't know about all of the questions, but I'm sure GN have a use for them all.
@get2sammyb
The story of my life, always forgetting to read the small letters...
Oh well I stole love you and I am going ot send you a chickenpie, just fill in the form that you will find at the other side of my reply!
@get2sammyb
There was nowhere to say u should get a bonus? I think most of us here think you should get one for you tireless work. Great site don't go changing too much. I'm pretty old and can't handle change.
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi can we replace Taylor with Brody Dalle? Or at least Jennifer Lawrence?
Sounds mainly like they're trying to gauge the popularity of digital releases and VR.
OK, I did it. I thought it was for improving the website though.
@get2sammyb No probs - found it funny to be asked why I pledge or what would be my reason to buy Early access after stating that I don't.wouldn't do either. Also having no interest in VR, digital releases (other than the occasional DLC which I have no choice but to buy digital), over a year left on my PS+/XBL subscriptions, have all hardware (consoles, peripherals, TV etc - so not expecting to buy), never buy digital etc, I did find a lot not relevant to my current situation however had you asked a month ago, then some of my answers would have been different. I re-read my original post and realised it seemed 'negative' but the reality is, it's more a case of timing. If there was a question asking what peripherals/equipment/subsctiptions I have, it would hopefully show I have no need to buy this year. I hope this clarifies my original comment and apologise if it sounded negative.
@Johnnycide Bizarrely, I actually like The Distillers. And even more bizarrely I actually think Brody is .
Done!
@get2sammyb nothing Bizarre there, they're a fine band and she's stunning
Done, always glad to help push square!
Done! Although it's not necessary, I hope it only makes this site better!!
45 questions damn.
Usually I wouldn't do a survey for any less than a picture of a bourbon biscuit, but because it's Pushsquare, I'll settle for a custard cream!
Done
@get2sammyb @Johnnycide never gotten into the distillers, my best mate is a massive fan but I can't stand her voice. Survey also completed. How about Carol Vorderman.... (she autocorrects into Borderlands)
@Bad-MuthaAdebisi Carol Vorderlands? Is this going to devolve into Street Countdown? I'd be into that.
Done, Nothing like a survey to make you realise that Its impossible to recollect an Indie game title when it asks "which indie game are you most looking forward to?" I almost wrote call of duty with the stress.
Just done it, made me realize how little significant gaming events there are near where I live.
@get2sammyb
Nice to help the site. I assume there is no need to do it on Nintendo Life, they don't offer pictures of cookies, even if they are the biggest of the three sites. For shame!
@themcnoisy
I just remembered some of the kickstarters I am still waiting for and added Yooka Laylee for good measure.
Done. Glad it was to help your site because that survey was HUGE xD
@AFCC Thanks for taking the time to do it. Sorry it was so long!
@sinalefa I'm sure NL will be in touch. Not sure whether they'll have free biscuits, though. No class over there.
@themcnoisy Haha, @ShogunRok has the same problem!
@Boxmonkey Thank you!
@jik Thanks so much!
@VanillaLake It's more for Gamer Network, but anything that helps them, helps us! Thanks for doing it.
@MDHegs Thank you.
@Neolit Cheers, man.
@adf86 Thanks a lot!
@get2sammyb Biscuit please. I held up my end.
Done. Although I expected more custard and cream and less cookie...
Np Np
Off Topic - Any Digimon first impressions or something?
Done it!
@AFCC Thanks. We don't actually have Digimon yet - later release in US - but Naruto's up tomorrow if that helps!
Completed, God I love taking surveys. It's so relaxing at the end of a long work day with a couple of whiskeys and beers in me. More surveys please! No sarcasm here...I really love them. Here's to hoping this helps you guys out!
Did it. I kinda hated taking it because I'm too behind on games today, but I did my best. Hope it helps.
@get2sammyb Yeah, I only get it friday here too D: damn Europe always forgotten xD
Thanks!
Done. Why so many indie questions? O wait this is a PS site.
@get2sammyb @Johnnycide
Nice to see some distillers and brody fans on push square, great band and super awesome woman
On topic about to take the survey 😊
Done! Now, if the final part to the survey happens for me, and Sega creates another console, I'll be a happy camper...since that will never happen, I'll just bust out my Dreamcast and wonder what happened!!!! The custard cream was a little rough going down the throat...guess I shouldn't have used construction paper...guess I should have also taken smaller bites...there will be a confetti party around the bathroom tonight!!!
All done
@ReigningSemtex @get2sammyb @Johnnycide
She is hot!
survey done...
Done!
Done,no problemo.
Nailed it!
That was painfully long, but it's done. I use your/your sister site Nintendo Life every day, so I'm glad to help out.
*nom nom nom
I'm a bit strange in that I like filling in surveys so this was great fun....
Done. I answered "No" or "None" to 99% of the questions only because most of them were about things I can't care less. I'm an aged gamer, you know... All I need is to put something in a plastic box, turn it on, and play with a plastic thing in my hands watching at a TV.
Done the survey. I would have preferred a chocolate digestive to a custard cream though.
Done - but I'm still not sure why you needed my inside leg measurements.
Done - never underestimate payment in custard creams.
Mmm a custard cream. Next survey I'd like a Foxes jam and cream please. Ta.
No PS VIta in gaming platform ownership selection!
Vita is DEAD!! No~~~~
Done... But hey! Where is Ps Vita???
All done!
@get2sammyb You are welcome.
Done.
Done, however it was almost painfully long for answer honestly It was a magics and trickery stating it will take just a few minutes.
Done! As for suggestions, has your site considered running competitions where members try for highscores on a particular game or something similar? Could be fun and good for more community engagement.
@Scorpio73 Thanks for doing it. I enjoy surveys, too!
@DerMeister Thanks, always helps!
@Splat IndieStation 4!
@ReigningSemtex Thank you!
@JLPick Dreamcast 2. Believe.
@iSillyBoiJudas @dellyrascal @Rogue76 @special_donky Thank you.
@Draythedestroyer Nailed it! Nailed it!
@Kriedler @mrobinson91 @andreoni79 Thanks so much.
@DragonSlayer1759 Too expensive. Thanks!
@Rudy_Manchego Thanks!
@Churchy Thanks.
@ApostateMage You'll have a Party Ring and you'll be satisfied with it. (Thanks)
@whywai88 @arnoldlayne83 Haha, I noticed that, too.
@Riopapa @WanderingBullet Thanks.
@MeskaP Thanks. Sorry it took so long.
@LieutenantFatman Good idea!
Just got the survey done now. But thanks PushSquare for the gaming news and great reviews! And the great Community!
@get2sammyb No problem. Just out of curiosity, but have you guys ever considered doing video reviews for the games?
@get2sammyb I took the survey, but it has a few flaws.
Some of the questions don't have options for my answers, like: "How many of these did you buy digitally?" Its smallest answer is 1, there is no None or 0 option.
The question about ranking each of the aspects of a VR unit has a couple flaws. Its missing the only thing that I find important at all, and thats Platform. None of the other qualities matter to me at all, and I would rate them all equally an 8, but it only lets you rank them in an order, forcing you to either not share your opinion, or find some arbitrary order to rank them in.
The question about when do you place a pre-order is missing an answer to the effect of: "When pre-order bonuses are announced." (I don't pre-order unless there is a bonus for it).
Done, and I hate survey's especially 45 questeon one's!!! I only ever use this site anyway it pretty much has all the info I ever need to find out so there's no need to use other's, and when I do decide to have a quick look at any other's they suck and I end up back here 2 minute's later. Just keep up the good work chap's. Also custard cream pfft!! That's what the margerine kid's used to eat when I was a kid (someone might know what I mean ) I'd prefer a Rocky Robin..
@WanderingBullet Please don't! Unless it accompanies a complete text review too. I hate it when I go to other sites, like Kotaku and I click on an article that interests me, and its a video or pod cast.
Aye. Written reviews > anything video
Done.
what if you just don't care about VR? I mean, I still filled the survey to the best of my abilities, but some of the questions were tough. Also, I can't remember how many games I bought (especially adding digital) so I made up a number. But it's probably a lot more. (o_O )
@Utena-mobile I'm kinda with you there, I don't often remember those exact numbers and I'm far too lazy to look them up. And I also have no interest in VR. (To be honest I'd be more interested in AR, but Google's goggle glasses seem to have downed that idea for the time being, as I never hear anything on it anymore)
@crystalorbie
google glasses! I totally forgot about google glasses. lol. Are they even a thing anymore?
@Utena-mobile I assume they still exist, but I haven't seen anything promoting them at all in years.
@Utena-mobile you called?
Done the survey, most of the questions were weird. But it made me realize how digital I have gone this generation.
and DONE
Only for you PushSquare (And Nintendolife) <3
Honestly, I think I'd prefer a bourbon next time. Or even a chocolate digestive...
