Who says I support Liverpool?

That's my Christmas present right there Santa.

Idiots. Everybody but FIFA it seems knew it would have to be held in the winter. It's going to ruin every competition in Europe.

Like I said it's not much but if they truly want people embracing this then it should be free like the browser or Miiverse. I doubt the manpower or cost outlay was massive, I'd say most if not all of this is reworked Art Academy assets.

Eh, yeah right. Art Academy: SketchPad is now available for purchase in both North America and Europe. For $3.99 / €3.99, the app can be yours. You’ll need 271MB of free space in order to download the new Art Academy. Shame we have to pay for it but it won't exactly break the bank.

Imitation Is the Greatest Form of Flattery.

It's alright, calm down, calm down. I heard he assaulted a Basil Brush look-a-like that goes by the name of Luis Suarez. Apparently it happened outside a take away. Señor Suarez was getting a bite to eat, couldn't wait for his curry chips, started racially abusing Raheem and eating his arm. So it was self defence and now Señor Suarez is a battered burger. Simples.

Celtic were in the Champions route draw while Arsenal were in the non Champions route draw. That could be a tough draw for Arsenal. I'd like to see them lose only to see the reaction on rodent features Suarez's face. It would be priceless. Fenerbache are banned from competing in Europe this season which is under appeal so it would be interesting to see what would happen if Fenerbache win the tie but lose their appeal. I bet UEFA would want Arsenal in the competition and might affect their decision.

If they drop the gamepad, what have they got? It's their unique selling point even though they've done nothing compelling with it. It'll basically be a PS3/XBOX360. 3rd party support if it's even possible will be even worse.

Even The Guardian review says the controls are not perfect. "The scrappiness of the action extends upwards and outwards throughout the entire game, which struggles to marshal its ambitions and ideas into a perfectly coherent whole". It's not the first time I've heard this and it will cost some points when it comes to the reviews.

That's a good idea.

Enough of the pony. Summer is June, July, August. Fact. End of.

I can't see them ditching the gamepad. Get rid of the basic bundle, it's a joke. The Wii U needs a €100 price drop to compete but there's no way they're going to do that. The writing has been on the wall even before it launched. It's a mess and there's no way out now.

It's no coincidence. Has to be a definite link. Nabbit is a thief. This person has Nabbit garb on them. Perhaps they're selling the spoils of their thieving.

I didn't want to post that news for fear of getting an earful. But it does show Nintendo is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Reduce the price and face the wrath of the shareholders and a major loss on the balance sheet. Or Keep the price as is and continued low sales.

Full Guardian Pikmin 3 review. It was reviewed by Simon Parkin, he's always very critical with his reviews. So a positive review from him and you know it's good.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds: The game’s logo represents one of its key plot points: Link will undergo a new adventure across two worlds. In one world, the iconic Triforce exists, while the shadowy Triforce in the logo suggests the existence of another Triforce in a different world from where Link lives. Taking place long after the events of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, some of the game’s scenery will be familiar to fans of the series, while its puzzles and dungeons are new. The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds launches this November. This game looks savage. I wish I owned a 3DS for this. Can we have something like this for Wii U please?

Luigi got himself some of Peach's pie.

Why are you smelling your finger? What did you do Luigi?

How do you pronounce Kyntt? I've an idea.

Appalling stuff in every regard with that video. Naff music, camera views, no game footage, poor menu examples(no example from an actual game), flaming bacon cherry. Who is this guy? Did they find him in a dustbin, offer him half a beer and a packet of pork scratchings? University advertising students could come up with better and they wouldn't have to worry about matching Nintendo's budget as a fiver ought to cover it. It's like they don't even care at this stage. Worst part, this is only episode 1.
