This is Nintendo and online you're talking about. Not to mention that it's an unfinished game, of course there will be problems when it's released.

I was round at a friends yesterday with a few others, just chilling having a drink and takeaway after work, we had some music channel on (not sure which) and the Splatoon advert came on. After it said "Nintendo's online 4vs4 shooter" (those words from what I recall), one of my friends asked me about it so I told him the premise. He started talking tactics and strategy etc. (we used to game on CoD/Battlefield on the 360), when I mentioned the game had no voice-chat, this of course bewildered them and they lost any interest, laughing it off. One of my friends (who doesn't game) asked why would they have it so you could not even be able to talk to your friends... I had no answer of course. Idiots Nintendo, idiots. Still, there are adverts out there and this was around 11pm at the time.

Holy crap, I did not realise Private Pyle is also Kingpin from the Daredevil series!

Same here so I'm not too sure. The manga though... wow! I hope the anime does it justice!

Another simply fantastic One Piece chapter! This arc has been all kinds of awesome, I just hope the anime does it justice. What worries me is that the anime has pretty much caught right up to the manga and so I worry it may have padding to slow it from completely catching up which will lessen the arcs awesomeness.

I'll watch them all after the event. I can't take it off work and I'm not hyped for Nintendo anyhow. Mostly hyped for what will show for the PS4.

Crazy game this.

What on earth was going through Fabregas' mind I don't know... crazy! Utterly ridiculous! West Brom now 2-0 up too. Mental.

If you've an iPhone you can start them, others can join from any Skype app.

My problem is that I generally enjoy multiplayer games more than the single-player experience, so when I want to game with my friends I'll look to do it online. Here's where Nintendo are losing me with their attitude towards online and their poor implementation of it. As a result, the only games that would tempt me to buy a Nintendo console these days are Zelda, Metroid and Xenoblade. No other game is a system seller to me anymore... and I've always been a Nintendo fan. If their games aren't appealing to me, would they appeal to non-Nintendo fans out there?

Bit of an exaggeration yourself. I did game whilst on the phone and we tried Skype but it wouldn't work if you recall as the iPhones hadn't had the conference call update at the time. For MH4U it just wouldn't work with my PS4 as it kept disconnecting me whilst both were on so it was t that I couldn't be arsed. Skype worked ok with it, you lot just wouldn't use Skype.

If I see it on the cheap, second-hand or something, I'll pick it up if people are skyping. Skype was talked about with MK, Smash and MH4U but nobody bothered so I'm not sure about people using it for this too.

@MadDog that is true, he does... still, no Premier League medal for him, but at least he got a guard of honour coming on... not quite the same really though.

Liverpool did a fantastic job of sending Slippy G off, haha.

I'm sorry man, I've got a break-up between friends on my hands. I'll not be on after all.

Yeah I'm getting myself into bed shortly but I'll be down for it tomorrow.

@Glen\-i I'll get back into the hunt if you fancy rising up through the HRs? @Blade, do you fancy joining us?

Well I'm pretty hairy and can sleep like I'm hibernating so I guess a bear fits, haha. Come on @Ronnie, you can't say those games couldn't, and shouldn't, be better seriously?! Think about all the options/features they're lacking which are standard across the industry these days! I'm not saying they're bad, but they're not as good as they should have been/should be and so they're disappointing to me.

Take out Pikmin 3 and yes, the rest are all disappointing as they could, and should, have been so much more!

This is bad Ronnie. You're complaining about him not even complaining, just that he might do so in the future... that's just pathetic. I prefer a conference, it has a better feeling about it than a Direct. Although Directs are fine. I'm just hoping they show me that they will still make good games that suit me and not keep disappointing me.

Multiple choice?! Oh, haha. I picked Pikmin 3. I'd have also chosen TW101 had I realised. I'm not voting for WW or MH3U given that they're not entirely new.

As much as we've argued as of late @Ronnie, that was comedy gold!

Gerrard clapping us onto the pitch... priceless! Poor Stevie G, never being a champion and having had it done for him. I'd not find it so funny if it wasn't for his choice of words last season "This does not slip now..." God it was too funny that they were the words he chose to use! As much as I love to take the piss, he is a club legend there though and so I'd have been one to applaud him off too.

That was the case on the Wii and WiiU but not the other platforms. You'd have millions/thousands playing all the modes on the 360/PS3.

@Serebii well then as opposed to me calling BS on you not playing them, I'm calling BS on you believing Splatoon has plenty of content... because you can't possibly believe that unless you have a mental deficiency, surely?!
