  1. I think war is an absolute last option. Any campaign commited against North Korea would have to be a prolonged and bloody campaign. They fought an massive UN force to a standstill in the 50s, and even without Chinas support they would fight to the absolute death, as the Nazis did right back to the last 3 square miles of Berlin. It could even mean conscription - you, me, in the trenches waiting for a shell to land on our heads. I certainly hope it doesn't come to that. I think our first move is levering China and Russia as far away as possible from NK diplomatically, and then hit them with some Section 7. It won't solve the problem but it might contain the NK government by cutting them off completely. I feel really sorry for the people there though. Anyway, here's some handy filler info on North Korea and Kim-Jong Il. Enjoy. North Korea Profile Kim Jong Il
  2. Oh god I know! Of course no chance of seeing Beckham back now unless McLaren admits he was wrong all along to drop him. (Unlikely. ) I gotta say, from where I'm sitting it looks like a pretty bleak outlook. Dark, evil, lifeless, wasted landscape of an outlook.
  3. Steve says he wants a performance of "pride and passion", possibly forgetting that it's his job to make sure that happens. Unless England prove nothing short of spectacular in the next game, I'll be amased if he lasts the year. To be honest I hope he doesn't.
  4. Use your speed boost power to get the bus to sufficent speed to clear the gap! Also, Spartan Total Warrior is a solid and very fun hack 'n' slasher. Normal is pretty tough, and hard is damn well impossible. The arena challenge mode is also quite hard to get a good score on.
  5. To be honest I would have the thought the original cinematic versions were long enough for most people. You must have an ass of steel.
  6. I'll get the demo when PCGamer put it on a disk. Might get the game eventually, but when I eventually get back on to an online gaming friendly connection I think I'll stick with Battlefield 2 for awhile first.
  7. I don't know. It might be out in some places - looks like much more of an alternative action film, so I doubt it would have a national rollout. My dinky wee cinema thrives on this sort of stuff, but as a more alternative venue can't always get the latest prints first.
  8. A friend of mine once said, and to be honestly I agree with him, that North Korea is probably the only nation on Earth that could actually be crazy enough to launch a nuclear weapon. North Korea is a fanatically Stalinist regime that rule with remittant and unwavering brutality. The problem is how to make sure they don't - all even the strictist of sancitions seems to have achieved is to have starved many of the oppressed populace to death. This is going to have to have to come to a head one way or the other.
  9. Bit skinny for my taste.
  10. Ooh, yeah, Viewtiful Joe is solid.
  11. This is a problem. I don't envy the man who has to make a decision on how to react. Is war with North Korea inevitable?
  12. F-Zero and Metal Arms are both great and very challenging. It also got a bit sticky in Skies of Arcadia as well. The last dungeon is a monster. And I think we've all been left in front of huge Metorid boss, and left to die miserably at least a dozen times before finaly working out exactly what to do.
  13. I've only just caught up with saturdays fixtures. I've never been enamoured with McClarean but good god. 0-0 at home against Macedonia? Basic stuff here Steve. Also bad luck to Wales, and well done to Scotland. Now will someone just tell me how the hell they beat France?
  14. You can't deny that it is a fair improvment, and don't forget that Wii graphics are going to get better as we miove away from ports, DS style. Prime and Mario already look quite spectacular in motion compared to their GC counterparts, in my opinion.
  15. A best of compilation of Picard YTMND. With music by The Beatles. Enjoy!
  16. The Queen Set around the events of Dianas death, this film is somewhat adoring of the Queen but is rather deliciously snide of everyone else. Michael Sheen is brilliant as Tony Blair, and it's strong performances all around. Godd stuff though a little strained. 7/10 Also and Renassance look incredible. Can't wait for either.
  17. What? Your mad. Mad I tell you!
  18. I've got more posters up since I took these 20mins ago. In my defense.
  19. I'll volunteer to get cracking on the next one if we fancy another.
  20. 10 - "Only bloody Hoff day"
  21. Pick out about 3-5 other guys in the arena and make them your nemisi, and everyone else is the panicking hostages you must defend. Now go nuts.
  22. Yep, there's nothing like stripping naked and stalking the roof tops with a pair of mechetes come the launch of a new console.
  23. A 45-minute-by-Epona wide central game hub would be way to big though, unless it had a load of towns and quests dotted along the way to keep you busy. I mean hundreds of the things. WW can't have been more then about 10-15mins across, and that was pushing it a little. In order for that to work there would have to be a very rapid form of transport to every major location from day one - maybe Epona turns out to be freakin' Pegasus or something. Otherwise you'd spend days just on a single item quest. 45mins? Madness I say!
  24. Onto the pyre.
