  1. You're not by yourself are you? Don't die on me man!
  2. Oh god I hope Radio 6 survives, Radio 1 is a rickety six-track shack with audial nails jutting out of the walls.
  3. Normally I would agree with Dwarf but in this case I have genuine fears that Activision do totally wrest control of it, they are going to do to the Call of Duty franchise what they did to Guitar Hero - pimp it like some two-dime whore and pump out a rapid succession of "Call of Duty" titles until the franchise isn't worth the sweat on the average gamer's ball sack. The only reason the CoD franchise remains so strong is because of IW's original and continuing efforts - nobody wins by trying to take that away from them or diluting them too far with superfluous "brand" titles.
  4. Whooo, martinists out of hospital! Happy days!
  5. Apparently if you get that end it's actually something that carries over into ME3 as part of the story, so I'm curious to see how it's done. I'm deliberately trying to set up to get my people all killed in my second play-through just to find out. And I assumed the coffins were empty but still ceremonial, as per navy tradition.
  6. Here's a typical version of it if you're curious:
  7. It's certainly looking nice and close at the top - Ferrari & McLaren definitly seem to the be the front runners, but I think they gonna find themselves with even less breathing space then they might hope for. I'll be amazed if the Newey Red Bull isn't even more competitive then last years, and having slept through every GP from 2000-2004, the idea of Schumacher and Brawn being on the same side again still fills me an odd sense of wonderment mixed with abject terror. At the other end hopefully the new squads, Virgin, Campos & Lotus can all at least latch on to and be battling around the bottom end of the midfield by the end of the season. Virgin especially with their all-CFD designed car. F1 needs to be able to prove that fresh young blood with new ideas can survive and compete effectively in the sport, so fingers crossed.
  8. I'm 'oanna get moar party... for the booze!
  9. I want to find out what happens to Shepard & co from ME2 to 3. I'd like to be able to start with most of the familiar faces at my side this time, though assuming the next game takes place 5 years or so later, Thane will be dead and Mordin probably an OAP anyway. Also of course the whole thing of Shepard dying or not too - I can imagine a weird/awesome thing where you start a new character regardless and then team up and/or take down your Shepard and his/her team (if he/she survived.)
  10. True dat Flinky. Where would I get my regular dose of epic high fives without him?
  11. Oh, blast it all - I don't like relying on just home results alone, I really don't.
  12. All (and I really do mean ALL) the ladies love Mordin - guess they want a doctor's firm and knowing hand.
  13. I disagree that the FIA were responsible for Toyota and BMW leaving - that manufacturers got their way and defeated a budget cap but still Toyota, BMW & Renault all upped-sticks because they couldn't justify hurling 100-300mil a season into a team for no results in a recession. The new teams were obviously chosen with an eye on expanding the market, maybe not the best picks in hindsight but I think the F1 Management are allowed and I think not unwise to do that. USF1 may have tanked as a start-up but it wouldn't be the first one, or the last. To me it sounds like Ferrari are laying down their bargaining positions for the coming season with the sport undergoing an extensive period of change at the moment. Lots of unfinished business from the 2009 political bust-up. I think we know how it'll play out: Rule/engine/management changes will be proposed, Ferrari might threaten, or threaten to threaten to leave for Le Mans or WRC or Indy Car or start their own space program or something round about June time, some teams might threaten to join them, others won't, there will be an "Eleventh Hour Meeting" and a compromise will be reached where everyone leaves mad. Then we start again next year.
  14. I just made a week's worth of vegetable soup while listening to the Men In Black theme tune on a continuous loop, 'cos you never quite know where the MiB is at, uh, yeah.
  15. Still got my perfect home record so far, but only a single point away. Crazy.
  16. If you throw points on you class-buff-skill-thingy you can max out your Paragon/Renegade meter and still have a bar or two on the other. I managed to get Miranda back onside after falling out with Jack (you need full a Paragon/Renegade meter) by doing a quick skill retrain before hitting the relay.
  17. Whoa! Equaliser in the 92nd minute! I'll take it!
  18. All sorts of crazy things going on with USF1 apparently well into it's death throes maybe. They're either already dead, dying, badly wounded or doing just chipper albeit with a few snags, depending on who you believe. Nakajima is already signed with Stefan GP with Villeneuve "close" to signing as they fire up their car. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/81593 Meanwhile rumours are Jose Mariea Lopez is set to be announced at Campos alongside Bruno Senna having already jumped ship with his Argentine federal millions. Chad Hurley is also believed to have taken himself and a Youtube sponsorship deal elsewhere, possibly to Campos but more likely to an "established team". http://www.autoweek.com/article/20100218/F1/100219890
  19. C'moooooooon first away win. *crosses fingers*
  20. Pffft, I don't need your pity! No-one can POSSIBLY understand how I feel! I'm going to my room to put on too much mascara and let the world see my paaaaaiiiin! Seriously though, appreciate it. Loves you both too. <3
  21. I'm cold, I have the flu, I'm struggling for breath from my asthma and nobody loves me. Happy Valentines Day everyone!
  22. I love playing as the Alien. It's tricky as hell sneaking up on someone, because you never fare well in a straight fight, but clambering along the ceiling and scuttling down the wall until your suspended inches from the top of some unsuspecting marine's quivering skull is positively orgasmic.
  23. A full character with his/her own recruitment & loyalty missions is the sort of thing I'd be prepared to pay for separately. Zaeed makes sense as a freebie because he only has his loyalty mission and no real relationship development tree. What I'm done with is things like weapons & armour packs.
  24. So is this how Bioware are going to do things - buy new or £10 or what have you and we keep getting DLC-extras drip-fed to us rather then paying individually? 'Cause I could get on board with this idea. Playing through on insanity, that new shotgun is a lifesaver by the way.
  25. Claaawing my way back up the table.
