There is one place in Holland Park i used a few times, £40 a night.
-
I'm in as always. And @dr4hkon, reasonable prices as it's not the Olympics anymore. Depending on location, you could get some for as low as £35 a night.
-
Added ya back @Sheikah, as well as @Daft. Will go through the list and add more soon.
-
I'll add you back @Sheikah once i get near some internet.

What is there not to like, Super Metroid for 30p. You won't see that very often, 30 friggin p
-
The way Wigan won against City on Saturday, i expect them to go all guns blazing against Arsenal. But then Arsenal need to win to get Champions League football. Could be an interesting game to watch.
-
Congratulations are in order, well done.
-
Now that would be interesting to see. Wigan play the likes of Birmingham and QPR, then play the likes of Benfica in the same week. Talk about the prospect of a lot of Football for them next year
-
Recent purchases £150 £35 £45 £5 £23 £5 £1.30 £1.50 30p £10 credit

Sad day today being Fergie and Schole's last games for United. Wigan need a result against Arsenal, otherwise bye bye. Which could mean a championship side vs a prem side for the shield.

Sign me up, i can handle another mafia.
-
Thought i'd share it here as well.
-
Slight bump, it's also in the "Awesome" thread. Space Oddity, from space itself!!!
-
Wow, Ninty are certainly giving us a treat indeed with these 30p classics. Kirby's Adventure is a great title, one that i've downloaded. Super Metroid, another title i've not played before.
-
I noticed a few titles in HMV in Cardiff were cheaper than in GAME (by a full £10!!!) That Injustice was one such title
-
32gb HDD for the WiiU is shocking to say the least, but the 360 at launch came with 20gb HDD before the various upgrades to the memory. Ninty should really have made the 32gb one the basic and something like 100gb (maybe higher) as a premium model. I've not downloaded anything since the WiiU stupidly large update (got my Wii stuff on an SD card) but i can see myself getting a large HDD by years end.

Xpert 11 Season 26: Space to move, Space to breath, Space to win
Jimbob replied to Haden's topic in General Chit Chat
Sorry guys, i was trying to get the stream going but i was having internet issues on the PC, and had lag which made the stream impossible to watch. -
Half the time, i leave the forum open and wander off. So it may seem i'm on 24/7, but i may not be. I'll inform the GM next time if i become that inactive, heck i missed the Xpert draw this week. Still, back on topic. Hack n slashes @Rummy are something i have a bit of interest in playing, so i may have a look into Darksiders. But as you said, the quicker i do it the better.

Luigi's Mansion 2 - Thrills with fellow N-Europers
Jimbob replied to Fused King's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Interesting indeed, may give it a go. Anyone wishing to have a match or two with me, my codes on the side. I'll only leave the match if it's over or my connection times out. -
Didn't know that was a Wii-U title? Yeah i know, apologies. Was feeling a little down of recent, my rant in the bad thread probably explains it.

Got a mate who's got a ethernet splitter which he's giving to me, so once thats sorted the PC and 360 will be wired in.
-
That's a good price indeed.

I've got it all wired up now. No disconnections at all. Gonna wire my entire room now, because the router is in a place which i find unacceptable for a wireless connection. I recommend these if your wireless router is not able to be moved Plug and Play LAN.

Indeed, we are planning on moving the phoneline back to it's old location. As and when that will happen, no idea. I moved the Wii-U to where my Xbox was and it did the same as i desribed. Heck, i even put my 3DS on top of my Wii-U (whilst the U was off) and i got a 2-3 bar internet connection steady. I got one of them Homehub 3 routers. The Wii-U is in my room, which isn't too far from the router (it's about 5 or so meters from the routers location in diagonal terms). I get a steady 5/5 on my PC for connection, 2/3 bars on the 360 and 2/3 bars on the 3DS. Where-as the Wii-U, 2 out of 3 bars and it keeps disconnecting. I did some seaching online, and it would seem using a LAN adapter is my best solution. So @Agent Gibbs, when my kit arrives tomorrow i shall let you know. As long as i don't disconnect every 30 seconds i don't care. I only want to use Miiverse and play Monster Hunter online.
