I bought Black Ops, Gears of War 2 +3 and Assasins Creed: Brotherhood and didn't play the multiplayer on any of them. I think for some you have to put in a lot of time to enjoy it at all (like I had to play loads of Halo Reach multiplayer before I was good enough to survive long enough to have fun), while others you just don't want to play it in multiplayer....i agree it's strange that they didn't even try it though.

What is that i don't even.....

They need to get some Seagal all up in there. Then it will be 'sweet' and 'banging' and other slightly outdated superlatives.

Saw this on Facebook...

Regarding ebooks, i don't have a Kindle (although i'm seriously tempted), what i like to do, is to buy the actual book, and then download the ebook copy (which i don't feel guilty about, since i already own the damn book). That way, i can read the physical book when i'm at home/at the park/on holiday, but i can also pick up from where i left off on my phone whenever i want, e.g. on the bus. I wouldn't want to get rid of physical books completely, because i think they do have major benefits, but i also like the ability to carry around the book on my person at all times without having to widen my pockets.

Blimey, that baby is 3 months old?! How small was it?! It's miniscule!

There's not really a lot you can do, some people are just more disposed towards heart attacks, usually through a genetic abnormality. I think having medics and defibrillator near the pitch is all you can do (which all clubs have now i think, since Mark Vivian Foe)

Somehow I feel responsible. I had no idea the distruction i would cause by posting that image. I am very sorry. Here is another image as a apology: Don't read too much into it.

Just because there was no note, does not mean the chicken did not want to end it's life...

No. Fucking. Way.

Bloody hell what's happened to Muamba?

I pooped in today and bought Kane and Lynch: Dead Men. I'm aware it may be a bit of a dog's dinner, but it was only £1.98 and I'm running out of co-op games to play with my friend.

I came when I saw that trailer. Possibly the best game trailer i've ever seen. I kind of want to play this on PC, but i'm certain my laptop won't be able to handle it by Sept.....

Pppfff. It's all about Tau.... http://halftauday.com/

Since i don't feel confident insulting anyone else quite yet...

Do you just have one huge white tooth when you smile?

BUT WHAT ABOUT WHEN PEOPLE WANT TO MARRY THEIR DOG?!?!

I've just started the books (well, I'm about 300 pages in) and i can't wait to watch the TV series! I think i'm going to at least finish the first book before I start though. Is it one book = one season? The books are pretty good right now... Also @Ashley, do you have a snazzy GIF for every occasion?

I've always thought you look a bit like Animal from the Muppets.... *Goes off to the User Photos thread to look for more...*

I don't know....it seems to have run out of steam. Maybe resort to some name calling like in the alcohol thread?

The BBC has this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-17356957

When the barista writes them down, or the customer? I'm not saying that the starbucks employee will be required to remember all the names, only that the customer may expect them to if they are a regular, and may be offended when they do not.

Fo'sho, I agree with you, i should have put some sort of smiley at the end of my post to show i was being flippant. My apologies.

I don't know if anyone saw this advert on tv last night, but if you didn't it's on their website: http://starbucks.co.uk/ Basically, what they've decided to do, is rather than taking your order and then calling out the name of the drink when it's done, and you go and pick it up, they are going to ask you your name and write that on the cup, and call that out instead. I think this is a fairly terrible idea, as it's going to make life very hard for the poor baristas, who will now have to try and remember their regular customers names, but they'll have to waste time asking how to spell names, and generally getting difficult names wrong. (Also notice how all the names in the advert are nice, short, white people names) It also lends itself to some hilarious false names. "Hi i'd like a Frappachino, my name is Latte" "Yes, and I'd like a Hot Chocolate, my name is Cappuchino" "I'm No Milk, No Sugar, and I'd like a Milky Tea please" EDIT: And i suppose since they have to read out your name when your drink is done, you could always go with some of the classics - Mike Hunt, Willy Holder etc.

Yeah but the policeforce is going to be privatised anyway, so a tax hike won't help them.
