  1. Nintendo Revo= Nintendo GO?

    Nintendo Go has a ring to it, whatever it may or may not be for. Who knows! Pointless speculation, whats the use in it?!
  2. GDC 2006

    Nope. The conference is completely camera/video free. You'll have to wait for official media.
  3. copying the revmote?

    I dont think the PS3 will have sensoring, i really dont think they've had time to make such a change. Who knows, it sucks if they have.
  4. Summary of the Sony GDC Conference

    Region free? Thats cool. A few years ago i never would have bothered with other consoles, now i have a 360 it doesnt seem too out of my will to get a PS3. I dont want one that much though, id just be getting it for the sake of the technology, and that my friends is not a good thing to do. Waste of money.
  5. Details: The Xbox 360 Camera

    I find it bloody annoying everyone talking over Xbox Live personally, i drown them out with music. It works with some game types, but for the most part its just dan annoying. Seeing them as well?! No thanks! Though the capture sounds interesting.
  6. BBC's UK Vote: Nintendo, Microsoft or Sony?

    Fact is, most people own a DVD player now, whats the point of having ridiculously expensive Blu-Ray? PS3 a multi-media center, and its damned expensive to have it. Sony are using the games influence to try and boost this kind of thing.
  7. copying the revmote?

    Nintendos FHC cant be copied now, they simply dont have time to produce it. And even if they did do it in the future, the Revolution has been designed especially for it meaning it will always be the leader.
  8. Minor New 'Simpsons' Movie Details

    I dont even see it anymore, i dont have Sky One! Back in the day i watched it every night! 7pm, at least 2 episodes were on, it was a joke! Thing is, i dont miss it that much, i often look at the DVD's and im not overly tempted to buy them. Basically, il watch it if its on! Ill watch the film, but from the lowered standards it had in the TV episodes i wont have high hopes for anything overly spectalular.
  9. GDC 2006

    Just breathe people! As said, Sony didnt say much, though they had announced some big stuff not long ago which they just re-iterated (release period etc) Expect Nintendo to talk about DS Lite, a US release perhaps and New Super Mario Bros, and definitely some Zelda talk as wolf sections are going to be playable. The most i think we'll get out of them are hints on release, hints on where theyre up to, more praise developers are giving, that kind of thing, and lots and lots of the same old 'were different, were changing the way we play games' talk. The more hyped you get for GDC the more angry you'll be if you're wrong. And you only have yourself to blame.
  10. XBox360 Media Center

    Thanks for the framework I now have the problem i anticipated, it now says the 360 isnt connected to the computer half way through instaling, but if i connect it to the computer (not the modem which i had been doing) then on the 360 media center option it obviously wont proceed as its not connected to the internet. Only solution i see, i need a router to actually make a network rather than playing around with wires here and there =/ I duno, its all too confusing for me.
  11. Working abroad

    Im with Ashley, theres nowt wrong with Birmingham! You want trees? Go to sutton park! Birmingham city center has everything you need, its great. An od friend of mine went to the US to work last summer on a programme the University set up. Just worked in a restaurant and lived somewhere. Had a great time apparently. Changed him alot, hence why i said 'old' friend :P But at least he enjoyed himself.
  12. Play nice guys. Sing with me.. I see trees are green... All good now? Good.
  13. It has been quoted to be aiming to be of an around about length of 70 hours before Nintendo delayed the release for Revolution controller extras. So, looking at these facts we can say it should be around 70 hours. will it be longer due to the extra time spent developing it? Maybe... though you have to take into account that they have been putting alot of work into adding the extra features which might not be an extension of the quest itself. Its all moo to be honest though. What does it matter? The game will rock, 70 hours or 100 hours. 70 hours is a bloody feat in itself! Damn greedy arnt you!
  14. Sexism, Football & Extremism

    Regarding the FA's decision, what position are they in to change the regulations for one girl? On the contrary, who can say that one day we wont see mixed football teams. Its the same with all sport though, in fact i can only think of one sport that has good interest than mixed doubles tennis. If men and women can compete in a sport on the same physical level, that meaning duration, fitness and physical build to the style of the game, then there shouldnt be a rule that stops that from happening.
  15. GDC 2006

    They have! It will be available in the US before Thanksgiving followed by a worldwide launch in the following period. Thats not a rough enough date for you?
  16. The third Revolution secret!

    It could well be they were referring to the unveiling of Miyamotos new 1st party franchises as the secret, theyve said its underway but to show what it is would be revealing the secret. I will 4th/5th or however many people have backed up Stocka(!) that i remember reading that there was a 3rd secret. I dont think it was siad it was more revolutionary, but i could be wrong, it was a fair few months back now.
  17. How long will gaming survive?

    Its the same with music, television, films... anything media entertainment related. What you have to remember is, what is old to some people, is new to others. The key is appealing to the key demographic of the current time, having to idenitfy who that is. At the moment its around teens/20+... to hazzard a ballpark. As it is, movies, music, games, they can all survive adapting tried and teted formulas to appeal to the next generation of interested consumers that havnt been there for the previous cycle. Some teens now have never even played the classic Super Mario's, maybe theyve never played Tetris, it seems crazy but its not their fault if they wernt around, so games similar or sequels are goin to appear as its a known good format for a game that they will lap up. And around and around we could go. True to that, look what we have.. a new Super Mario Bros on the way and ooh, a new Tetris! The Revolution and the DS are hoping to change that target which is much needed. If games suddenly start appealing to 30+ and to people who dont usually see themselves as gamers or even touching a game, then the future is brighter for encouraging innovation rather then continuing round in this cycle. Ok, i have overlooked innovations that Nintendo strive to make with their sequels, and thats awesome (WiFi Tetris, the changes to Super Mario Bros etc). To answer your question... the games industry is the most rapidly progressing industry at the moment, maybe soon to be on a level with the films industry. It will take time but, it can happen. Can you imagine a games equivalent of the Oscars? Perhaps not... cant see Miyamoto walking the red carpet with a fake boobed blonde but, games could one day at this rate be on a imilar level of interest as films.
  18. PS3 to Stream/download PS1/2 games?

    When i read about this i was shocked, i hadnt thought of the difficulties and size of PSone and PS2 games to be downloaded and streamed thogh, that makes it all seem like a big hassle just to try and level suit with Nintendo. Makes me feel better! I wont be getting a PS3, not merely as id never be able to afford one but i just plain dont like Sony and never have been overly interested in the PS bar the odd title.
  19. He has been quoted saying he never implied the PS3 is/should be seen as a gaming console, that it is more appropiately seen as a multimedia deliverance.
  20. Same here, i was under the impression it wouldnt arrive till after Revolution, maybe Christmas or soon after in 2007. This is bad news for Nintendo, they cant let the mind-numb PS3 fanbase take focus off of their limelight.
  21. I do believe reading a worldwide release is planned, i think some of you may be confused by what this means. It doesnt mean it will be out everywhere on the same day, it means it wil be out everywhere within a given period, i think the period quoted was 3 months. So it will be a worldwide release within 3 months if thats the case. Japan first, USA next, then Europe and the rest within that period. But, who knows.
  22. Sony loses Dual Shock Patent case

    As it says, Sony just didnt settle, it has nothing to do with Nintendo hating Sony more than Microsoft.
  23. New Red Hot Chili Peppers Album!

    I like many have said have taken a disliking to them after over exposure to them and to be honest now i just think, God get out of my face, which is a shame because they're talented guys and have some great recent songs like the Zepher song and Cant Stop.. but if i hear them one more time im likely to kick the stereo in, or TV, or whatever the hell is playing it! Its gone too far now, even with new material i think i'll always just be sick of their faces. Maybe my taste has progressed also, they went a bit softie and that annoyed me a bit.
  24. Post your desktop (56k time to Panic!)

    Some kind of Alton Towers Nemesis rip off.
  25. GDC- what will be revealed?

    You'll get nothing and like it. It will be for Nintendo to brag about their innovation over the years, how the Revolution is the next step, how well the DS is doing compared to PSP blah blah... im pesimistic as you've guessed but, ive learnt this to b the best attitude when it comes to Nintendo else you'll be let down far too much, and when they do let something out its rather special indeed.
