I feel left out Oh and Stocka, for being an uber-mod (when he was a mod). In fact, I vote Stocka for re-election.

Ok, here's my say on the whole graphics vs gameplay fiasco. Graphics matter. No question. But now with this next generation, graphics don't matter as much as they used to. Looking at the previous console generations, we can see the clear graphical jumps. But this generation has seen least improvement in graphics. We've only gone from detailed 3D (ps2/gcn/xbox) to even more detailed 3D (360/ps3). Games look nicer yes, but I wasn't wowed as much as I was when I first saw the ps2 or gamecube in action. What's more these graphical enhancements add nothing to the gameplay, unlike when we moved from 2d to 3d. And what about the generation after? Can graphics improve anymore than they are now? Looking at the wii strategy I can kinda see where nintendo are coming from in terms of not being HD. The most important thing is that the difference between wii and ps3/360 is only significant when played on a HDTV. If played on a SDTV they is little to no difference between the consoles. So nintendo are saying: pay £180 for a new experience or pay £450 + another £400 for a HDTV for some jaw-dropping graphics that aren't even as jaw-dropping as you first thought. I am disappointed that wii will not be hdtv but you can't have it all.

Noodleman, you must be really good at random guessing.
-
Ill give you a day for the remaining questions and then Ill let those who already answered have another go. If theyre too tough Ill give clues...
-
It was Kupo yes. Yeah you have a point. I think I should just give points to both of you. Am I allowed Meik?
-
I think most of the internet population knows about the wii already, so nintendo should just go all out with the telvision advertising ('cause that's what sony's gonna do).
-
No, but he was the 2nd moogle you meet. He says it's English, so I trust him.
-
If you spell it correctly, then yes. EDIT: Ninja_Mullet... can you even pronounce it? Rhythm was my original answer (it was the longest in my dictionary) but I think I'm gonna have to give the point to Ninja mullet for the most bizarre word I have ever seen :S.
-
Ok, you are indeed correct. Stupid book...
-
Question 10 had already been answered (I accepted welsh_gamer's answer of "paybooth"). So you get another shot. Strange, I have a different answer listed down (I took this question from a book, I don't actally have the song on my computer) but you seem pretty sure. Is it definately 24 (be honest)?
-
Go for it. Katie you're correct.
-
All right so far.

It's from the cover art of Iron Maiden's Benjamin Breeg single. And emasher gets a 8/10, nice choice of colours. -
Ok, just got back from work, time for some quizing! Thie should keep you going for a while (hopefully). 1)In Scrabble how many letters have a value of 2? Name them. The fish knows his scrabble. It is indeed D and G. 2)What South American country is named after an Italian City? gmac is correct 3)What's the longest word in the English language to contain no vowels? McMad gets rhythm but Ninja_Mullet comes up with... Twyndyllyngs. Both get points! 4)If 1 is the first odd number, what is the 100th odd number? 199 is the right answer Katie 5)Which group had a hit record in the 1970s, the 1980s and the 1990s and each time they had a completely different line up? Noodleman gets it with the England football team 6)How many times are the words `Love Shack` mentioned in the B-52s hit of the same name? Yup Twilight_Link, it's 24 7)Which album set the all-time record for most units sold by an independant label band? Tom gets it with The Offspring's Smash album 8)"Hamburgers. The cornerstone of any nutrious breakfast." Which film? Point for Platty 9)In Final Fantasy IX, what was the name of the first moogle the player meets? Meik gets it with his knowledge of FFIX 10)Which film? welsh_gamer gets it first

I'm with Brick.

9) 5 (6 if you include Selma).

Every significant new format = probably not wii unfortunately but I may be wrong. Would a wii version use the wii mote or the same peripheral as the ps3/360 versions?

Gaming fanboys have to bash about something. This week? There was the wii price announcement. It would have been either: "tEh WiI isTHAT cheap!?!/ it MUST b a piece OF cr4p!!!11oneone" or "OMFG ur payin THAT Much 4 an XBOX with a NU controlLER!? RIPOFF!!!111ONE".
-
I just hope this doesn't happen to amazon.co.uk. I'll have to keep a good watch over it in the next week or so.
