I've met Jackie Chan at his film premier of New Police Story in London, really nice bloke if i do say so. I have also met the Red Dwarf cast and producers and got autographs from Robert Llewellyn, Craig Charles and Chris Barrie. All really nice and are a great laugh.
I also won a competition on the radio with the prize being a personally signed picture and DVD from Jim Carreys film Bruce Almighty a few years back. And i saw Jeremy Clarkson in Oxford and got a signed copy of The World According to Clarkson back a few years ago.
My Mums claim to fame is that she nearly got run over by Jeremy Paxman on the way to work.

Starfox Adventures was the biggest letdown for me. I was really looking forward to this game when i got my Cube as Rare were making it. It was looking really good and all the mags and gaming sites were hyped about it, then it came out and it was ok but not as good as we thought it would be.
-
I don't watch much terrestrial TV as i got Freeview in my room, but what i do watch i'd rate the channels as BBC 1, ITV, BBC 2, Channel 4 and Five.
Currently watching Fawlty Towers on BBC 4
-
I can't believe people really think this one of the best cube games ever. I don't think it was a bad game by any means, it just wasn't amazing at all. I played through it once and then sold it.Same for me really, it is one of them games that is worth playing through once or twice only really.

I'd ask for a working gun with live ammo to eat, but then use the gun to break out.
Na, not really. I'd go for an all you can eat Chinese buffet along with an all you can drink beer. I'd eat myself to death before i'd get anywhere near the chair

I miss...Playing 4 player Mario Kart 64 and Goldeneye.
Good cartoons i.e. Original Turtles, Thundercats e.t.c.
80's programs like Crystal Maze, Funhouse, Power Rangers.
Pogs.
A time when the internet was new, awesome, and 56k was fucking fast.
Shit 80's programs we watched anyway because we were little like Are you afraid of the dark?
The war between Sega and Nintendo fans.
The times before reality TV.
Reading 'Goosebumps' and actually enjoying it.
Where's Wally?
Trading footy stickers for the new 'Premier League' sticker albums. "I GOT MAN U SHINY!!!"
When consoles were rated by 'bit'. "OMFG! 64 bit!"
Noels House Party.
Even more things that i miss, but forgot to comment.
I also miss
Decent kids TV (when the BBC and ITV both had shows that i wanted to watch)
The privilege of using the Internet when it was a reward to use, now it is all over the place and can be used anytime
My Gerbils (died about 6 years ago)
Friday and Saturday night TV (now Challenge will suffice for now)
The time when owning a mobile phone made you popular in school

Spent the weekend watching movies as none of my mates wanted to go out last night.
Who am I - 9/10. A great Jackie Chan movie. Love the whole fighting at the end and the sequences at the end as well.
Number 23 - 8/10. A good, yet thinkable Jim Carrey movie. Saw it in the cinema at release, bought the DVD and watched the cut version.
Die Hard 2 - 8/10. A great sequel to a great movie. Lots of explosions and swearing throughout.
From Russia with Love - 9/10. Great movie, great acting. Just a great movie really. Only let down was the ending, didn't think much of it. Thought it was a bit weak.
-
Played a 2 player Rainbow Six with my mate over Live yesterday, kept putting him off over the headset. Just as he had aimed to sniper someone, i'd shoot the guy he was aiming for or shout "boo" really loud so he shot the air.
Next game i'm probably going to get will be Assassins Creed. Bought Colin McRae the other day and it is awesome. I've already wiped out 3 cars completely.

I used to be a laborer until there was no work left and they laid me and a few others off. Currently unemployed looking for more work at the moment.

You know, i was thinking exactly the same thing!He accuses Vista of not working properly?!?! Im sitting here typing this on an Acer "laptop" that has cracking casing for the 3rd time in 18 months and a defunct battery and charging circuit! It can't leave my desk!
Amazingly enough, the software works fine! Yes, Vista is obviously the pile of shite that's at the cause of my computer problems...
lol, Vista causes problems to Acer laptops that are already renowned for problems. That is about as likely as the Dodo coming back to life in the next 3 minutes.
I've installed the updates and everything seems ok now. My screensaver doesn't take a lifetime to go away anymore, which is nice.

Best bet for the gingivitis is to see a hygenist. They will tell ya what to do and help you to get rid of it.

Bought this yesterday
Traded in 6 games, got £60 for them and the game came to £35, got the other £25 on gift card.

Never had the problem of missing pages and i do find the official mags less biased even though they are official. I used to read N64/NGC/NGamer and they were all biased towards Nintendo games, some of the games they gave low scores for i found very good.
-
I used to collect Beano and Dandy comics and the odd Simpson comics as well. Still got a few somewhere in the attic and one Beano comic behind a wall. Got most Beano and Dandy albums between 1980 and now.
Can't believe the price of these comics now, £1 something. I used to get them when they were 30p up until they were 55p then stopped.

Cha Cha Slide, YMCA, Macarana are just a few of the cheesy songs that i know get played at every party or wedding. Even that Superman song where you do the actions is cheesy enough.
-
The Harry Potter games, they are over before you know it. Did the first 3 games within 6 hours. Took them back to GAME the next day for a full refund (£50)
I also found Wind Waker very easy. I got the game 2 days before release in UK and by the time it came out in UK, i was already on the Triforce hunt. I beat the game a few days after that.

This does look amazing as i said earlier, with the GTA delay this is now the next game i am getting for the 360 after Colin McRae, which i should be getting soon.
I just like the fact that you can blend right into the crowd to avoid the guards, it looks cool as well. This is just the type of game i have been looking for since i got my 360 back in December

Never had that problem before. If that is the case, then i think the wrong serial number was printed on the laptop.
Just saving a bit of cash ready to get more RAM for my PC, should make Vista run smoother and quicker as i am fed up of it taking forever to mearly load up.
