Ahhh, I didn't realise it mattered which direction you pressed on the D-pad, I thought it was just the same as turboing. Ta, I'll try it out.

Is Nintendo customer support still 0870 6060 247? Been trying to call them this morning and it just rings and rings. Unless they're not open at 9:45 on a weekday, although the 247 at the end of the number would at least suggest it's a 24 hour line. EDIT: Sod it, sent them an email instead.

Compared to other first gen players. Once Asda start stacking them up for next to nowt with the new stuff like picture-in-picture that the PS3 can't do and improved load times (Which are crap at the moment across the board) you'll still be left with the Blu-Ray equivilant of the PS2 DVD player - Outdated, big, clunky, not worth what you paid for it and outshone by newer budget players. That's early adoption for you. I've been used to HD for years and years and years. PC games have been kicking out high definition for ages and no-one gave a monkeys. It's only when console makers decided it was a buzz word everything became OMGHDD future of gaming all new mega wow you've never lived you'll never go back to SD ever again blah blah. I'll continue being cute for now, thanks.

I found the tutorials to be fine (although I thought my girlfriend was going to break the controller in half about about the 10th time she tried the power up one) Up until the airspin one anyway, couldn't get any kind of spinnage at all and the instructions are pretty vague. Might try again when I get in this afternoon.

Well, I've finally had enough of my Wii's wonky drive and I'm going to ring em up today and see what they say. Stay tuned.

I'm going to get right into the spirit - worship Eostre, partake in some fertility rituals, do a dance at stongehenge and smear myself with goats blood.

Some Swedish priest was reprimanded for saying being gay was evil etc. Phelps took this guy as a martyr and bombarded everyone with leaflets about how Sweden was as evil as America and oppressing this priest etc. Then the priest came out and said he hated Phelps even more than teh gays and was horrified that Freddy was using him as propaganda. This proved to Phelps that they'd brainwashed the only sane Swede and that God punished them by killing a few of them in the boxing day tsunami along with the gays, dykes, fag enablers etc.

They're total braindead fucknuts but I reckon they've got about as much chance of being right about who god is and what he does as the next man... Oh, and http://www.godhatesshrimp.com

Plus "He's middle eastern!" and "I sawed the twin towers in the trailer and it maded me feel sick how can Tka e Too do dis?!"

It's been a proper mong-a-thon on the gamefaqs boards since the trailer, with threads such as "Are you ok with bieng a foriener killing americans?"

It's hillarious watching england at the moment

*gasp* NiGHTS is inciting sectarian violence!

I do play the GTA series, I'd just rather play them on the systems suited to them.

No thanks.

Notice Kalou and Drogba getting sly kicks in when he was on the ground?

Think I'm finally gonna get a 360 premium soon. Not got an HDTV tho, so I'm gonna hook it up to my 19" crt monitor instead. Need some speakers as well I guess.

There are certainly people who believe the earth doesn't go round the sun and have 'science' to back up their views. How come you believe what mainstream scientific opinion tells you on that, but not on the causes of global warming? I certainly believe the Guardian more than a discredited kook film maker.

Haha, yeah I'm terrified of socialising, that's why I don't want to sit on my own in my room with teenagers screaming at me through my ear. It's not unknown to me, I've used it in FPS games since I was in a Quake 2 CTF clan and I still think it's shit, especially public servers. It really adds to the authentic experience of a WW2 shooter to have someone shouting "Fucking camping fag noob" and singing "My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard" falsetto while you play.

Oh noes, it's not a gritty alien shooter set in a post-apocolyptic wasteland, if I play this people at school might bully me and call me a baby, why can't people make mature games for the 13 year old wanabee gangster market.

The US versions of Kirby games, where they take the japanese box art, give him evil eyes and make it "Exxtreme!" for American kids.

We beat Barca last time we played them and beat Liverpool the last time we played them, so I guess we're the best team in the world.

Jamie Redknapp talks utter shite, nearly as bad as Lawro.

Please, no VOIP.

If a "documentary" by Durkin alone changed your views, I suggest you don't watch similar films about the CIA killing Kennedy, the moon landings being fake or Bush ordering 9/11 unless you want to be convinced into believing those as well. I'd avoid watching his other work as well, such as "Silicon breast implants - if you don't buy them, you're going to get cancer", "GM food - if you want a study to see if it's safe then you're a hitler loving Nazi" and "Environmentalists kill puppies and vegetarians eat babies" I'm not entirely sure how he still manages to get stuff commisioned, but Channel Four are in the shit again for giving him a mouthpiece for his gross distortion of facts and blatant mis-representing of the people he shows in his films (The genuine people that is, not his cronies from Living Marxism magazine he puts in as stand-in "experts") I've no problem with people having a differing opinion, but it's a bit like someone saying "I saw a film by George Galloway and now I think the Iraq war was wrong after all" or "I just read one of Ann Coulter's books, I never realised how evil liberals are, now I hate them". The film disguised the fact that solar activity hasn't increased recently, while temperatures have because that would have cast doubt on the solar activity theory it was wanting to present. I wouldn't base your opinion on a film of half truths and outright lies.
