I pre-ordered my Wii in Smyths, think it cost 280 euro, and the games average between 50-60 euro. Lance

Uhh, thats really disgusting. The girls must have been so embarrassed, think she started crying at the end Lance

Is that the release date for the game or just when you think it's gonna come out? Lance

Is it really that bad? I always thought flying around as superman and what-not would be brillant, great potential for a game Lance

Thats brillant, but anyone know what they gave the WW and OOT? Just like to see the scores to compare :wink: Lance

Sorry if it's been posted already but..... Order Wii Component Cables by Phone Nintendo makes graphic whores happy. November 14, 2006 - Eager Nintendo fans worried about the availability of component cables in stores at launch now have a new option available to them. It was previously believed that these cables would only be sold at Nintendo, Circuit City, GameStop, and Best Buy online stores, and only after launch; however, it has now been divulged that the cables can in fact be purchased before the launch of the Wii, but not online. In fact, the only way to secure component cables at this point in time is to call 1-800-255-3700 and order them by phone. The cost of the cables themselves is $29.95 plus tax and shipping fees. Standard shipping is only an additional $5, but it may not be the most reliable way to ensure that you will get the cables at launch. Two levels of expedited shipping are available: 3-5 business days costs $7 and 2 days costs $13. Prior to writing this, we called and ordered the cables for ourselves, so we can verify that this is, in fact, quite true and quite convenient. While this may not be a viable option for everyone -- many gamers out there may prefer to save money by picking up third-party cables in stores -- at least gamers who want to make sure that they can play Wii games in 480p at launch have a surefire alternative.

ROFL! TEH RINGS!!!!!!! Lance

Everyone seems to be English here :P Anyone at all watch Irelands match? Won 5-0 against San Marino, but I suppose that's nothing since Germany beat them 13-0 and czech republic 7-0. Still, thanks to our shit manager, we are doing crap, and a wins a win At least Robbie Keane was promising, been on bad form lately but put in a good preformance and scored a hat-trick, one of them being a penalty.

Just started playing OOT on my N64, havn't replayed it in quite a few years and........I just forgot how good this game actually is........watching the opening movie where navi flies through kokori village quite literally brought a tear to my eye OOT definitly >>> MM >>>>>> The WW, but then again I can understand if you played WW first........ and playing OOT is much better on the N64 with the original pad rather then on the GC, so the experience might not be as good.

Wow, just found this article on gamerankings, it's quite old but I'm so amazed by it I had to post it Do you pretend you are the Hero of Time in your sleep? Are you the biggest Zelda fan on the block? Well, take a gander at what this Zelda fan owns... When we read that Paul Hantschel, one of our forum users, owns a real-life replica of the famous Master Sword from the Legend of Zelda series, we couldn’t just leave well enough alone. So we contacted Paul and asked for some details on his little artifact. Mr. Hantschel emailed blacksmith Rob Miller of Castle Keep, located in Scotland, with the initial concept and original artwork. Around a week later, Rob responded and requested detailed dimensions for every aspect of Link’s Master Sword. After a ten-month wait period and a £1,800 transaction (around $3,300), Rob began work on the sword of legends. The blacksmith provided updates of his progress during the one-and-a-half-month forging process. With them he included photographs of the sword, which Paul has graciously shared with PGC: http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/gen001632.jpg http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/gen001630.jpg http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/gen001629.jpg http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/gen001631.jpg http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/gen001628.jpg Lance

ROFL Ok, maybe I was wrong I suppose I did find it off some weird site, and to think, I was starting to get worried for old people Lance

6.8 for Excitetruck? I'm going to get the game anyway, but I still think the score is sorta dissapointing.........hopefully it won't put too many people off getting the game::shrug: Lance

I have to say, EA are really starting to impress me. The last few games they have released ( Battlefield 2142, FIFA 2007, and now this ) are actually quite good, and looking through their line-up of games for the future there are a few i'm quite interested in Lance

Lol oh, thought it was unique to the Wii >_> Lance

(MCV) Famitsu reveals PS3 software tie ratio is just 0.98 10:00, Nov 14th Leading Japanese games magazine and data specialist Famitsu has revealed that the software tie ratio on PS3 over the launch weekend was 0.98 – less than one game per console sold. Hardware sales over the two-day period (November 11th-12th) were 54,600 units of the 60Gb version and 33,800 units of the 20Gb model, giving a total of 88,400. The top three selling software titles were Ridge Racer 7 (Bandai Namco) which notched up 30,300 units; Mobile Suit Gundam: Crossfire (Bandai Namco) with 30,000 units; Resistance: Fall of Man (SCEJ) at 20,889. The fact that less than one game was sold per console has further underlined suggestions that some consumers chose to buy the PS3 to sell on at a profit. Lance

Lol! RUMOR: Wii Disrupts Pacemakers While the silver set might be in Nintendo's cross hairs, old gamers with bad tickers beware. We've heard this from a few sources, but nothing has yet been confirmed or denied by Nintendo, so take this with pitch of salt. Apparently, the infrared Wii-mote is not good for pacemakers and can interfere with them. Nintendo supposedly put up signs at the recent Nintendo World event in Japan as a precaution. Me, I didn't see such notices, and this is the first I've heard of this. We've contacted Nintendo to get clarification. Stay tuned.(Taken from Kotaku) Lance

I wish I wasn't getting a Wii for x-mas, I know I'm going to be begging my mom to give it to me earlier To top it all off, I'll have to avoid the internet aswell as there will no doubt be countless pics/videos/reviews etc. after the 8th off Zelda and all the dungeons and what-not Lance

I've always wanted to play this game, anyone know if it's coming out on the VC for Europe? Lance

Pimpdaddy------> There was a brillant game from Clover studios ( Capcom ), forget the name but I think it was called veitfull joe or somthing similar. Back on-topic, anyone else think this game was a bit short? It was great when friends came over, but aside from that the game was un-touched from me so I eventually sold it Lance

Woah, massive bumpage from last year, on-topic though I love Fox, he's incredibly fast and has some great smash attacks Lance

It would be brillant if TP was second in the gamerankings, but then again I wouldn't care less if it was no.100 in the rankings. We already know this game is going to be fantastic, I don't understand some peoples concerns that it will fail horribly if it gets less then 9.5 or something below their expectations, because in the end everyone's taste is different. For instance I believe TP is a beautiful game, while other people seem to dis-agree, comparing it to the likes of GOW or Motorstorm Lance

So just to be clear, is RGB or component better for a HD-TV? And the ones that come with the Wii are fine for normal TVs? Lance

Lol, where's that guy who was always worried about this games score? Lance

Might have been posted before: Amazon to slash core 360 to sub £70? Hard drive rumours spark yet more rumours With talk within the industry as good as confirming the release of an Xbox 360 with a larger hard drive, many are suggesting Amazon is set to slash the price of the core 360 to clear stock. Indeed, some are claiming the online retailer will charge just $100 in North America for its remaining core stock, which equates to around £52 in the UK. If true, said sale could start imminently, forming the start of a Christmas promotion. Should the giant decide to also clear its UK stock, a price of sub £100 could well be on the cards, with some analysts suggesting it could even drop as low as £75. We'll keep you informed should Amazon confirm or deny the rumours. In the meantime, take this one with the pinch of Jolt flavoured salt. Lance

I am so looking forward to this movie! :bouncy: Have every James Bond film that has come out so far, and I heard this movie is more in the style of the sean connery ones! Yay! Lance
