  1. I'm having a problem sharing my Internet connection to my X-Box 360. I've got a Netgear DG834GT router and my PC Internet connection comes in via a Netgear WG111T Adaptor. My PC O/S is Vista and the connection encryption is WPA

     

    I have managed to get the 360 online using another Internet Connection and been able to keep the Internet going on the PC, but when i try to share my own Internet Connection with the 360 a message box sometimes pops up with an "Error, unable to complete this operation, please try again" message or changes to shared connection but cuts off the net but keeps the connection to local. Does anyone know how i can get around this?


  2. I;ve stocked up on 360 games to keep me going throughout BB season. I also have enough money to go down pub nearly every night to avoid BB talk.

     

    Anything is more exciting to watch than BB, which involves people watching people in a house talking all day. This year, we have a women-orientated house with 1 man going in soon (and twins!!). I'd rather gouge my own eyes out or watch Titanic or paint dry than watch BB. Real life torture is better for you than BB torture, trust me!!.


  3. "Quickly, you've got to come with me!"

    "I can't they've.... they've tied my shoelaces together."

    "A double knot? Those bastards."

     

    lol, awesome quote from the awesome Hot Shots Part Deux, best part of the film was the whole breaking into the complex and rescuing the prisoners. Bloodiest Movie Ever!!! lol.

     

    And personally, i think Truman Show is Carreys best work. Cable Guy is worth watching, but only as a rental or something. Liar Lair is awesome, can't tell a lie for a whole day, lmao throughout.

     

    Watched all these yesterday

     

    Die Hard

     

    Used this film to test my new PC sound system and i don't regret buying it. The explosions made my speakers shake a little and made the film even more enjoyable. 10/10

     

    American Pie 2

     

    Great sequel to the first film, enjoyed it a bit more than the original and it had a few more laughs in than before 9/10

     

    Rocky IV

     

    My personal favourite Rocky movie, great songs featured which i tend to sing now and again. Also one of the best montaiges showing training with modern and old-fashioned equipment. 9.5/10

     

    Scarface

     

    Great gangster movie, currently playing the game that follows the movie 9/10


  4. Terminator 2

     

    What can i say was actually wrong with this film, not a lot really. But what is right about it is a lot. This is better than the first Terminator movie and it is not because of the improved CGI, which i don't mind in films. As a whole this is an awesome film and it gets 10/10.


  5. Well, i won't be getting this game mainly for the reason that i already have it on the GC under the name Two Thrones. It is good though for the new gamers who never played it on the GC.

     

    And using the - button for camera isn't too good at all, looking at the above pic of the attachment might make it easier to control some parts of the game.


  6. Apart from the Office. How is that ever funny? EVER?

     

    I've tried many times to get into the Office but i cannot get into it same as Extras, it's not funny and that dance was not that funny at all. I prefer watching other stuff like Red Dwarf, Men Behaving Badly, Home Improvement, Scrubs, 2 Pints, Fawlty Towers, Family Guy and American Dad among others.

     

    I do like watching 2 pints it is funny in a lot of places, thankfully i get BBC 3 in my room so i can watch it up their along with other great shows that appear on BBC 3.


  7. EB Games UK was set up in the UK on it's own - it just borrowed the name and logo from the US stores. The US Chain doesn't own anything in this country.

     

    Then GAME bought out EB in the UK and made all the stores GAME, and now bought out Gamestation which is a good move in my opinion. And Gamestation still get to trade under the Gamestation name.

     

    I got better service in GAME than in Gamestation when i was purchasing my 360 and got a better offer as well in GAME which was even nicer.


  8. I use the classic controller for many VC games except the N64 and NES games, for which i use the GC pad and Wiimote for these games and i have no problems with using the classic controller. And i've yet to find a game that uses both sticks on the classic pad.


  9. This is looking and sounding better and better each week. If done right, this could be the best GTA Rockstar have ever made. This will be one game that i will be picking up at launch.


  10. These make me happy

     

    • Watching Manchester United win
    • Watching the Chicago Bulls win
    • Spending "quality" time with my gf
    • Playing Snooker
    • Chilling out with mates down the club
    • Doing my duties down the club
    • Playing Rainbow Six Vegas and actually staying alive longer than 10 mins
    • Going to Inverness on a weeks holiday with a group of mates
    • Getting a job that lasts

     

    And thats just a few things that make me happy


  11. I live in Caldicot which is a reletivley small town/large village. About half the people wo live here are nice enough to talk to, the other half are chavs from Newport or want to pick a fight.

     

    Only good thing about where i live is that it has a members club which i am a member of and it is also where you can find the only people worth talking to as well and it has snooker/pool tables with regular tournaments. The other pubs tend to have fights every night of the week and one or two are dumps anyway.

     

    There are no real good shops, just recently the film rental place shut down and is now an estate agents. We got 4 banks/building societys (HSBC, Halifax, Barclays, Nationwide, Lloyds TSB) why that many i don't know. We got more takeaways per mile than Rogiet, Magor and Undy combined.
