I must be the only person whom still seems excited for this game.

Hopefully the Monnaco GP will live up to being a great one, Rosberg performed well last season on this track. Here's hoping for a repeat performance.

Another U-turn in effect. Putting entertainment apps outside of the paywall is a great idea, and something i was expecting them to do with the launch of Xbox One back in November. I've always deemed it stupid to put apps that you already pay to access, behind a wall which you need to pay to access. And a Kinect-less Xbox One, it's an idea that has been a long time coming. People wanted it back in November after Microsoft took the whole idea of needing Kinect to start the console up away. And it's set to be at a price competitive to the Playstation 4. But on the flipside of the coin, it now makes them near enough equal to Playstation. Free to access apps without needing Gold, but requiring Gold to get the free Games on Gold deals. But i've heard other features may be put behind the wall to compensate, no idea what though.

I remember having a discussion with some friends about this on Twitter, and it's been covered already. In which Sony over expanded across many divisions, and now need to make a few cut backs to level the costs back to a profit. Nothing i'm too worried about, Sony will get through this without a doubt.

Got the day off to play this, so have myself 2x 3 day weekends.

There's a shortfall for leave over the E3 week, damn. I'll have to watch the conferences once i get home each evening instead

I still pay under £10 for my haircuts, last week it was £9.

That video certainly opens eyes. For me however, it doesn't affect me as much as i thought it would. Yes i do use my phone a lot, and maybe reducing my time online may be a step forward. But it does make me look around and see many people using their phones on trains, buses, waiting in line for something. Heck i've even seen kids leave their groups and instantly get their phones out and go on the likes of Facebook or Twitter. As Moogle said, the message is still valid today.

Just goes to show that no matter what the power is in the car (be it between Rosberg and Hamilton), that it's down to the driver as it was proved. Lewis will most likely take the World Title this year, which i'd be happy with because A. He's British and B. It's not Seb Vettel All i've heard from Vettel is moan, moan, moan. Riccardo getting a legit podium this time, i'm happy for him. Well deserved this time around.

Finished Pikmin 3 earlier. A fine reason, in my opinion, to own a WiiU. Not solely for the game, but it's a reason to own it.

Now that would explain it, the touch panel on the back of the Vita certainly makes it more interactive. And better mapped buttons.

At the moment (as of yesterday). I'm playing the following Wii U Plodding through Pikmin 3. I think i'm at the final hurdle when i left it last night.

Was playing Pikmin 3 yesterday, had to put my headset on as my parents thought i was watching a gay pride parade because of all the whistling going on (i was fighting a boss)

Yet another job rejection, sigh. I'm never leaving this place without quitting.

I keep wondering why it's cheaper on game.co.uk than in-store, and have inquired about the stores matching online pricing. Simply put, they won't. Which is stupid to be fair, but hey ho. It does depend on the game itself. I do try and buy in retail stores as much as possible, if it's reasonably priced of course. I'm happy to go out and buy a game at full price (at launch or whenever) if it's something i want to play. I do buy the vast majority of my Nintendo games via Shopto or GAME online as it tends to be (at times) up to £10 cheaper than in-store. Bought Mario Golf at launch for £8 cheaper online (£27) than in-store (£35). Other titles on other consoles, it does vary. Currently, i've got Watch Dogs pre-ordered online, but i've got Mario Kart pre-ordered in-store. And with instore purchases, you do get the odd good deal. Best i can think of is recently with inFamous, got the Special Edition (with the hat) for £5 cheaper than the standard game at an online price because the store forgot to remove 2 pre-orders from my card, so claimed them. I guess to wrap it up, i'm 50/50 on online and store purchases. You can get cracking deals whilst out and about which just ain't available online and visa-versa.

Sorry for the bump Re-started this as i forgot where i was with the game. Still can't get over how visually stunning the detail on the game is, using the Wiimote for the controls is certainly more interesting than the Gamepad.

Brilliant episode, well done.

Certainly an interesting episode

Moved teams last week. That's the only good bit. The bad, i've been hearing my new TL is a bit of a nutcase (and i've overheard them, but not known it was them until told). Callers are worse than ever, to the point i've actually done something i've not done before, and that was literally have a cry (yes, you read that right). Callers, and this job to be fair, have broken me. It's been noticed by friends, family and people whom know me that i'm not right and something is wrong. I'm hunting for a new job, but nothing is coming up. I'm getting depressed with being rejected due to not having the "experience" required for the role. Which is making things worse, because the only other way out is quitting. Which looks bad for looking for job hunting. Management have been told by myself that i'm not happy, but alas do nout.

Comparing this to Mario Tennis (it was good, but short and lacked replayability after a while). Golf has certainly got an improved online system. Tournaments with prizes, DLC with 3 extra courses (and characters). Did a few online tournaments last night, won a few prizes from them. There is so much replayability to this game, i can see myself playing a few rounds in the months to come.

Seriously, that looks fantastic. The delay has certainly been worth it in my eyes.
