  1. The Pacific

    Sounds like it's going to be a bit like Band of Brothers and from what I can remember if it is then great
  2. I just got dumped so...

    I'm sorry for anyone who has just suffered from a break-up. I'm going through one as well ( as well documented it was ) and I've learnt a) don't do anything desperate, b) have no contact for at least 25 days - that way you will both be able to get clarity of mind c) go to the gym/do other things/go out with mates and d) it's called a break-up because it was broken. That being said I reckon love is an emotion that always has some sort of strain left and people do get back together to get even stronger. However, don't use this to hold on to any hope... instead except it's over, learn from it and if you do get speaking again then all the better . Good luck to both of you and anyone else going through a break-up
  3. Football Season 2009/2010

    I don't think we will miss Becks that much in terms of what he can still offer the team in footballing terms BUT he was great back up and a real talismanic figure so in that way we will miss him :-(
  4. Doctor Who

    I just think whenever a new production team takes over the helm they like to make it clear that their new series is a different beast to the previous. Of course it's all cannon and is really series 31, everyone knows this, he IS the 11th doctor but by calling it "new series" it just drums up more interest really!
  5. Battlefield Bad Company 2

    What platform do you guys have battlefield on? I'm playing the xbox version and online seems quite laggy atm..especially in vehicles :-S
  6. Final Fantasy XIII

    I know Edge have only gave it 5 but I bet it's not as bad as they make out and they do like to take the high ground and be controversial. It doesn't sound like a classic either but I've read enough positive reviews to make me buy this. With it being dispatched today I live in hope of receiving it tomorrow
  7. Battlefield Bad Company 2

    My copy has arrived :D..shiny limited edition too
  8. Lost: The Final Season

    I'm waiting for sundown or whatever the next episode is called to become available on sky player ( which I went on today to find all the episodes I previously paid for to now be available for free )
  9. Lost: The Final Season

    I'm loving this series! How they tie up ALL the loose ends I'll never know. I hate waiting to download each new episode on Friday from Sky. I could with a decent torrent but can never find one......Not that I download torrents:woops:
  10. Football Season 2009/2010

    Well Stoke City dump out Man City out of the cup..with a couple of goals which didn't come from a set piece!( which is actually quite typical of this Stoke side) Ahhhh Mancini didn't like that. So proud tonight :-D
  11. SNOW!

    Stoke and the surrounding area has about 3-6 inches of snow! enough to enable me to call into work saying I can't make it in .. ha ha. All the bus routes have been cancellled today too bcause the drivers couldn't make it in
  12. Sexuality Thread

    Yeh..but if you're bisexual...then you're bisexual and thats a classification which I don't think should be dropped. If it was shortened to LGT then it could possible make bisexuals feel excluded ...
  13. Make pancakes not love

    My pancakes bring all the guys to the yard And they're like It's better than yours, Damn right it's better than yours, I can teach you But I don't actually know how to make them- my mum makes them for me
  14. I think it's kinda sad that Cadbury's are being taken over by Krafts. Who knows what the implications will be but I thought it would be a cool idea to start a campaign of sorts which just shows that people do care about British industry and its demise. So please , if you don't like this takeover because of the threat of job cuts or simply because you feel it will loose its heritage then please join my facebook group! I doubt it will go viral but who knows, it would be nice to think it gets some peoples attention. I'm not stupid enough to think one poxy facebook group will change anything but it will give a voice to people who are disgruntled a the demise of British industry. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?v=info&ref=mf&gid=290826321604 PS. yes I am aware that Cadbury has largely been floated by foreign investements in the past and yes Cadbury recipes probably won't be affected. The purpose of this group is just to show that alot of people are fed up with British workers being put under threat due to foreign takeovers and that slowly Britain is loosing control over what made her unique If you don't agree with any of this then please don't reply saying why it's pointless setting up a group etc... I would just like some support and maybe someone will take attention of this
  15. How was your day?

    well my day was pretty by the numbers .. wake up, tv, sexytime, xbox, , ps3, tv, tea. I wish days off didn't have to go so quick!
  16. The iPad

    I love how people moan that it has no camera. Why should it have one? Imagine lifting that thing up to take a photo!?!?!
  17. Mass Effect 2

    I did think 2005 was too long ago but thats what it said! I must have the date on my xbox set wrong or something or I fell in a wormhole along the way....Yeh the refuelling is a bit rubbish
  18. MAG -Massive Action Game

    got this today and I have to say its better than what I thought it would be! Gotta play it some more to get a fuller impression ... Has anyone set up a clan for this? If so can I be a trialist? If not ! let's make one!
  19. Mass Effect 2

    I got this yesterday! Loaded up my old character ...who was called Nathan who I last played in 2005! 5 years ago! Has it really been that long since I last played mass effect. I was confused because surely I would have called my character Karl but nope..Nathan. Anyway I'm stuck with that name now. The game itself is way more polished than the first. I love the return of old characters but I miss the loot and big inventory aspect of it. It feels like its gone slightly towards the shooter genre than the role playing but like someone said the boundaries are very fine anyway. Great game though!
  20. Hellooo! I'm wondering if anyone can help me! The computer I have at the moment is old and slow, slowly drifting into retirement and its about time I either upgraded it or bought a new one entirely. I need a computer which can play battlefield bad company 2 - the specs of which are : Minimum Frostbite PC Specifications for BFBC2 & BF1943 Processor: Core 2 Duo @ 2.0GHz Main memory: 2GB Graphics card: GeForce 7800 GT / ATI X1900 Graphics memory: 256MB OS: Windows XP Free HDD space: 15GB for Digital Version, 10GB for Disc Version (BFBC2) 10GB for Digital Version, 4GB for Disc Version (BF1943) Recommended Frostbite PC Specifications for BFBC2 & BF1943 Processor: Quadcore Main memory: 2GB Graphics card: GeForce GTX 260 Graphics memory: 512MB OS: Windows Vista or Windows 7 Free HDD space: 15GB for Digital Version, 10GB for Disc Version (BFBC2) 10GB for Digital Version, 4GB for Disc Version (BF1943) What components would you suggest I buy to get my computer up to their standards? My specs are (copy and pasted obviously) OS Name Microsoft® Windows Vista™ Home Premium Version 6.0.6001 Service Pack 1 Build 6001 Other OS Description Not Available OS Manufacturer Microsoft Corporation System Name DAVIESFAMILY-PC System Manufacturer PACKARD BELL BV System Model ISTART 2380 System Type X86-based PC Processor AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3800+, 2400 Mhz, 1 Core(s), 1 Logical Processor(s) BIOS Version/Date Phoenix Technologies, LTD M2NS-NVM 0204, 13/11/2006 SMBIOS Version 2.4 Windows Directory C:\Windows System Directory C:\Windows\system32 Boot Device \Device\HarddiskVolume2 Locale United Kingdom Hardware Abstraction Layer Version = "6.0.6001.18000" User Name daviesfamily-PC\davies family Time Zone GMT Standard Time Installed Physical Memory (RAM) 1.00 GB Total Physical Memory 766 MB Available Physical Memory 100 MB Total Virtual Memory 1.75 GB Available Virtual Memory 620 MB Page File Space 1.04 GB Page File C:\pagefile.sys So would it be cheaper to upgrade or just get a new pc? I've also wanted a laptop for ages but I don't know if there any out there which match battlefield's specs. Quad core laptops cost alot! You're probably thinking do your own research but I have and haven't got anywhere because my computer knowledge is shockingly bad. Any help would be much appreciated. The person with the best advice wins a cookie!: peace:
  21. Yet Another New PC Thread!

    I have my eyes on this ..http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/system/AMD_Phenom_II_DDR3_Configurator/ A nice base price but the amount of extras I could buy is mind boggling! I'll have to have a good look through. I already have a decent monitor....
  22. Battlefield Bad Company 2

    I want the betaaa! but ive missed the PS3 one and my PC needs an upgrade to play the PC one :-(
  23. Mass Effect 2

    Going by the reviews I've read the RPG elements are still alive and well .It wouldn't be the same else !
  24. Mass Effect 2

    What I liked about Mass Effect was how you could tell it was a Bioware game...the character interaction and putting the plot in your hands is amazing. Things like loading textures never bother me. However, the one thing which did was them damn mako sections. They were crap.
  25. It is madness! Mad that religion can do this to somebody....Ironically she looks demonic herself
