Yeah i kind of thought i'd be struggling to choose which console i wanted out of the three - but now i'm in the situation where i really don't want any of them...

Hmmmm, well i hadn't even considered the public sector to be honest - i'm assuming if i did, i would end up doing sewage or something horrible like that (my degree is in Fluid Dynamics). I'm just a bit worried i won't really be qualified for any job when i start applying.

What sort of Engineering do you do? Civil? What sort of things do you do day-to-day? Is it fun? (Other than management being crappy)

Can someone fill me in on what i just saw? Was that a giant mecha-samurai? Looks good though.

I need to start looking for a job soon. This thread is making me terrified.

Indeed. But seriously though, i don't get why consumers would want exclusives. Exclusives are what the CEO of Sony or Microsoft want, as it makes people more likely to buy their console rather than someone elses. As a consumer, why the hell would you want a game that only plays on one console but not the other? You should want ALL games to play on ALL consoles, so you only have to buy one. Obviously that is never going to happen, but that doesn't mean we should be hoping for games split down the middle so we have to buy both consoles. I don't want to have to choose between the new Xbox and the PS4, i just want one of them, and not have to worry about the games i won't get to play on the other...

Yeah i wondered at first if moving was allowed, but then i thought if you were suddenly transported to a new place, you wouldn't exactly just stand still and crane your neck trying to work out where you are. I suppose that is 'hard mode' though. EDIT: Danny's is pretty impressive! The Mexico one ruined your score though!

One time i got dropped off next to a lake near a coniferous forest, and i couldn't move. There were no roads, it was just a single spot in the middle of nowhere, with a frisbee on the floor. I'm not even joking. Seeing as i couldn't move, and the frisbee didn't have anything written on it, i went with Canada - but it turned out to be Ukraine. It's really just luck.

Yeah using another tab with Google Maps in it is cheating. Any googling is cheating i think. Imagine you are just transported to a place with no internet at all and just a map with a pin in it. Still....0.001km is pretty damn impressive! Don't think that is beatable...

Why would anyone WANT exclusives? That's just ridiculous.

Reports are coming in that Bale has signed a new contract to stay at Tottenham...not sure how true they are, they're from the Evening Standard.

Dude, how did you get Norwich confused with Arizona?

This is pretty cool, you get a random location off Google Maps, and you have to guess where you are. My first attempt My second, better attempt. Challenge me! It's kind of like being in Quantum Leap, only instead of helping some girl achieve her Prom dream, you just have to work out where you are by shuffling slowly down the road looking at things. EDIT: Mwahahaha - can anyone beat ?! Admittedly, i got lucky, instantly recognising it as Scotland and then finding a road sign, but still, only 5km away. EDIT2: Saw a random sign that said "Something - something: Tip Of Africa" ended up with this:

I would say that it was both a foul and a dive. Give them both a yellow card, and a penalty for Spurs.

I don't have a sexy car stereo... I don't even have a sexy car... I don't even have a car...

I tried and tried, but eventually gave up about 6 games from the end. All my players kept getting injured. Did a bit of rejigging for the last round though and ended up with one of my highest weekly point totals! Completely by luck! I only transferred in Nolan as i neede to use up some money. Left him on the bench and he got subbed in with 19 points! Also had Lukaku so i had both of the hat-trick scorers in my team this week. :/ Anywho, i wish i had kept going for longer (or was just better at it).

Jesus Christ they're only fucking vegetables, it's not like they're expensive?!

Trailer looks good, but it seems like it's going to be a miserable season for sure. I hope they try and have at least some lighter moments in it....

Yeah.....never mind.

Yeah i got that one. But why would he do that......odd.

Hmmm, didn't work that time....

Yeah so apparently when Wii (the user) swore, it counted as my name in this post. Does anyone know what happened?

A bit off topic, but apparently that swearword at the end of Wii's post counts as my name and i got a notification accordingly....
