    The Japan Centre (downstairs) on Piccadilly has the best Sushi in London! Another awesome place to eat Japanese food is a place called Zipangu, just off Leicester Square! Both places have absolutly amazing food and its really cheap!

    5 hours every day...mainly Zelda...trying to finish it before uni starts! I also play WiiSports and Gunstar Heroes! I'm not really addicted (its only really Zelda that pushes up the time I spend on it!) but I wouldn't say that was a bad thing because I can imagine playing during the week when I have university when with previous consoles I would normally wait till the weekend! Basically Wii is easier...if that makes sense!

     

    Making Mii's is good fun though I'm sure a few of the forum regulars have received my Noel and Liam Gallagher but this is all we can do online right now - not good enough Nintendo - sort it out! March is too long to wait! :shock:

     

    I got your Noel and Liam, they rock! Did you get my Master Pei from Kil Bill?!:santa:

    I think it looks faintly naff. Seen too many cheap-Gladiator-esque knockoffs come and go to get overly excited by this one. A Gladiator a-like historical epic with a Frank Miller brand that will appeal to Sin City geeks? The marketing men must have creamed their panties when they concocted that one. In a giant tube of translucent orange goop in an underground laboratory no doubt.

     

    300 is about one of the most inspiring, and under explored, stories in history. 300 Spartans hoding back the floodgates to the impending Persian invasion. I can understand you might think that the film looks too stylized and that the "marketing men" are just jumping on the Sin City band wagon but that shouldn't deter you from looking for what it is offering and not what others like it have. I've read the comic, and from what I've heard, this is about the brutality of the Spartan nation and its unified commitment to an idea at any cost, non of this sissy-crap-happy endings-nothing-matters-cos-everyone-goes-to-the-afterlife a la Gladiator. (Not taking anything away from Gladiator, cos I think it rocks)

    Anyway enough of mmy crappy rant! Read the 'Graphic Novel' before you make any judgment!:p

     

    I doubt it very much. It would have nay of the substinance that Gladiator had (besides its not about the Romans). It wont be anywere near as epic. I imagine it will be pretty entertaining though, and its something im looking forward to.

     

    If 300 is less epic than Gladiator it has already failed as a film. The Story is vastly more epic, you also have to realise the Battle of Thermopylae happened (With variations in the Persian numbers). Gladiator was basically about two men, this is about two Nations, one being a gateway to Europe and the fast track to European expansion.:bouncy:

    This is the most enjoyable game I have ever played I though it was awesome! There was also this fantastic article near the back of an issue of Edge about the darker undertones in the game, including the loss of innocence...I'll see if I can find it!

     

    In light of Twilight Princess...I LOVE THIS GAME!!!

    Won't happen. Soon after Mischief Makers was released, Enix and Treasure started to argue how profits should be divided between two parties. They never came to solution that would have suited both companies, so they decided to pull Mischief Makers completely from the market*. Even today whole issue is still unsolved, and Treasure won't even talk about it with Square-Enix.

     

    * That's why the game is so goddamn rare these days.

     

    Wow! Thanks for the info, thats a f%$king shame...:cry: I can always hope/pray...:santa::cry:

    Just played Gunstar Heroe for the first time ever! IT ROCKS! I downloaded Ristar by a mistake...oh well, won't make that mistake again!

     

    Does anyone remember Mischief Makers on the N64? I would absolutly love to see that on the VC, anyone else? It was also made my Treasure, and I don't think it got a good reception, but over time it grew on me and I effing loved it! I really hope it comes out!

    This is just a few unstructured ideas and feelings I have...

     

    To tell you the truth I think Zelda does need to be redesigned. I have loved all the old games and I'm loving TP but I feel that the whole dungeon after dungeon has been done to death. I predict that will be the first thing to go. The second thing I would like to see is a lt more interaction between the different races along with slightly more convincing town structures (I know that sounds over the top but the devil is in the detail!). Another thing, and some people are probably gonna have an issue with this, the graphics need to be improved and I am sure they will be. I am extremely aware that TP is a GC game and for that it looks fantastic but the game looks a bit barren and I hope, and am sure this will be addressed in the next Zelda.

    One of my favourite things in TP is the fact that there are loads of animals and I think it gives the game a real feeling of movement and life but I would love to see more of this, herds of horses in Hyrule Field, flocks of birds, rabbits and then these animals interacting with the environment and enenies.

    The fantastic music needs to be orcestral instead of lame MIDI files.

    I don't want voice acting but the characters, I feel, need to make some kind of noise, a bit like Lylat Wars on the N64, and if they are its too subtle.

    The actual structure of the map I feel could change with less sections and more a larger flowing world.

    This isn't meant to be a criticism of Zelda cos I love it and I'm loving TP, I would love to see some of these things get integrated...

    So thats my incoherent talk over...

    I saw this awesome film about Capote in the British Film Festival called 'Infamous' and Danial Craig is also in it! lol!

     

    Really good film, go see it when it is on general release...I didn't see that other Capote film so I can't compare, but this film was funny and moving!
