We've got the deposit together for a house or flat, but until my wife gets a job there's not much point looking for a mortgage as we'll get a much better one with two incomes. So we're just chilling in our tiny flat until then.

My time is worth more than that. I'm an important guy.

Nice gesture, but inputting a code seems too much effort for like 10p worth of reward. Can't be arsed.

Is this you?

Thanks everyone. And Happy Birthday to @Glen\-i and @Iun! I had a nice day. I took the day off work (because i'm an adult - i do what i want), and spent the morning playing computer gamez. Then in the afternoon we went to see Star Wars again. And then out for a nice meal and cocktails in the evening. Oh, and i got this: Which is pretty sweet.

We truly do have the best birthday times. Happy Birthday!

Dude, you could have spoilered that shit. Now there's no point in me playing the game!

Wow, he was older than he looked.

I'm the opposite. I can remember the second half better, as I had a two year break between the two halves. The first half was so long ago that I can't remember anything beyond one of the dungeons.

Wow. Mind totally blank. I can't remember a lot about that game though.

I can't remember what the Tears of Light were? Were they a side quest i.e. optional? Because i don't think i did them at all...

I have literally never even heard of AC Chronicles. And the first game has been out since July? Did they announce it underwater somewhere?

I had to take a second look at your post. Which meant I read it four times in total.

I don't think it matters which are the 'best' Pokemon. Part of the fun is catching something that looks interesting, and then trying it out to see what it's like, and getting attached to shit ones.

That's fantastic. I'm hoping you're the bald one?

Is that the Terry Brooks adaptation? How weird, I was leafing through a Shannara book yesterday at a pub wondering whether to start reading it.

Has anyone else watched this? We're about 7 episodes in (of 10) and it's absolutely amazing. It's a documentary filmed over 10 years following the court case of a man charged with murder. Except the man was previously sent to prison for 18 years for a crime that he didn't commit, and was subsequently sueing the State for. It's incredible television. It also pretty much confirms every single stereotype of every American you've ever heard. So far i would recommend it!

I think refs are way too harsh on most handballs. I think unless a player obviously bats a ball away or does a Suarez in goal, they should be given the benfit of the doubt. It's not going to change the game that much, but it will stop these scenarios where players waft their hand near the ball and everyone is analysing replay frames to see if he meant it or not.

Yeah, they should ban voice chat, it basically spoils the game.

That's fantastic, it's like they gave up programming the AI halfway through....just cause!

I didn't realise Octodad came out on Wii U? What's it like?

I did post a happy birthday message, but it seems to have been lost to the ether of bad mobile signal. Never mind, there's always next year.

I actually don't think £499 is that bad (although I really think they could have included shipping in that), but I don't have a PC that could handle the load right now, and I doubt I'll have one in the future for a while. I'll wait and see what other offerings there are first.
