*keeps hand lowered* I can't see him not having the surgery when there's absolutely no alternative. I think this break in may be a first for the series, where Michael plans it down to the last detail, but it's up to the others to carry it out and put the plan into action. May be things get difficult, but Michaels not around to offer a solution so they have to think it up themselves?

I actually like the look of the new aero package now I've seen both wings together; well on the Williams anyway, with their livery. Obviously there will still be changes made to the chasis between now and March and slick tyres will go on etc... but it's better than expected. Something I'm really beginning to not like however is all the recent talk of the KERS systems and actually I'd rather they either scrap it, or wait until a standard system is developed that the teams will all run. Here's some recent stories: Webber: KERS will penalise heavier drivers http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/72047 Kubica: KERS might disadvantage me http://www.itv-f1.com/home.aspx# Toyota to introduce KERS only in mid-2009 http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/71896 Analysis: Slick impact on KERS future http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/72024 Di Montezemolo critical of KERS http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/72076 The last thing I want is an '09 grid full of unbalanced cars and drivers: - Some cars with KERS - speed advantage. - Some cars without KERS - disadvantage. - Lighter drivers at an advantage - weight distribution options. - Heavier drivers at a disadvanatge - limited weight distribution options. - Unsafe and Unreliable KERS systems - leading to title effecting reliability problems. - etc... I'd hate it to mess up the grid, especially when it sounds like it may be pointless in the first place!

They pretty much told you in the episode; Peter felt Sylar had slowed him down and Sylar's reaction when asked about it by Arthur pretty much confirmed that's what had happened.

Great Episode! and setting things up nicely for next week! Scofield needs surgery within 24hrs!! but times running out before Scylla is moved!! I've been SO pleasantly surprised by Season 4 its unreal! I've loved all seasons of Prison break thus far, but as I'm sure many were, was worried that Season 4 may struggle as the story was going to potentially drag on a little too long. But as it's turned out it's Prison Break gold! and this Season has so far just got better and better! Hats off to the writers! Heroes could certainly do with you!

Why Zelda Wii will probably be the best game ever.

It's just an awesome mod someones done. -
Seen quite a few adverts for this. I can see quite a lot of casuals being pissed off after buying this, because they'll probably expect it to be more like Guitar Hero than it is and expect to be playing the instruments, which the adverts seemingly portray.

Zelda with guns on: -
You are joking, that Eggnog is absolutely SHIT!! Loads of people can sing as well as that, and that's part of the reason I can't stand X Factor most of the time! Ah well, he wouldn't have a career in the slightest [past the first christmas song] should he actually win.

From these IGN videos it looks worse than SA2 on the Dreamcast IMO, and at least that had consistant textures/coulours and everything with the time it was released so looked great! http://uk.wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14242720/sonic-unleashed/videos/suwiitraileroct15.html The 'grass on the wall' texture is horrible!! seriously some sort of PS1 crap! and why does everything have a strange PS1 grey grainyness to it? I'm not impressed. Other videos: http://uk.wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14242720/sonic-unleashed/videos/adabatwiiunl.html http://uk.wii.ign.com/dor/objects/14242720/sonic-unleashed/videos/uleashchunanwii.html Look at the willow trees in the last video!! There's also jaggies everywhere, and I REALLY hope that's not the framerate the game ends up with! Everything's WELL below par!
-
Looks awesome matey! They still haven't shown the OOT Link redesign; that's taking forever!! And the future release Phazon Suit Samus is definately a model worth adding to any collection!
-

Not sure on that one. In the IGN preview it does sound like the 'ring loss' sound effect when Sonic is collecting rings, however, in the video of 'level 1' above, the sound effects are correct. Cheeky Star Wars reference at the start of the game intro!
-
Yeah you have a point about a point for Pole, maybe that one wouldn't work, but you get the idea. Your right about Kimi in '07, and yes really the driver who wins the most races across the season deserves the title, which was Kimi and Massa in '07 and '08 respectively. Maybe 12, 8, 6... is the best solution?
-
I don't mind the current points system, but think it might be good to see the drivers rewarded for other things than just the race result; such as 1 point for POLE and 1 point for the Fastest Race Lap.
-
Fucking shit Heroes doing that to Adam!! They've got ALOT of making up to do for that!

I'd rather the next Zelda improved on the adventuring/exploring elements [rather than the combat], as that's what makes for an epic Zelda quest IMO! -
Yeah Ferrari's last f2008 developments went on the car in Japan, whereas McClaren have continued development with a 'Brazil package'. Bet Honda are a bit pissed! They spend all that money on Ross Brawn thinking he'd attract a big name [read Alonso] to the team, yet it looks like they'll be with the same drivers, or a current driver and a rookie going into '09! Also, REALLY hope this standard engine move doesn't go ahead!! None of the teams want it and it just wouldn't be the same! F1 is all about the rivaling manufacturers; don't turn it into GP2 or A1 GP!!
-
What an awesome trailer!! Can't wait!!

There was nothing wrong with the race in both '07 and '08, as both had their moments! France is certainly not on the same snore level as say San Marino was for example! There are also worse on the calender like Spain! At this point in time I wouldn't like to see any curcuit go, if it's gonna be replaced by a Valencia!
-
I don't see this as good news. It would be aweful if we had a Paris street circuit in its place in a few years time! France was a traditional racers circuit. It had its processional races, but also threw up some quite interesting ones. So Canada can no longer afford it, France can no longer afford it! Wouldn't be surprised to see Austrailia go in the next year or so aswell! T'is a shame! Also in the news: Champions call for consistent decisions http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.aspx?id=44292 Raikkonen ready to support Massa http://www.itv-f1.com/news_article.aspx?id=44295 Alonso hopes he can help Massa http://www.itv-f1.com/news_article.aspx?id=44291 Kubica hits out at 'dangerous' moves http://www.itv-f1.com/news_article.aspx?id=44294
-
I'd prefer Kubica to take it over Massa and Hamilton, but both of them not finishing the next two races is as unlikely as it's ever gonna get! Well he hasn't made it easy for himself! IMO today was his best chance to help secure the title but he threw it away! Raikkonen won in China last year, which means Ferrari will be incredibly competitive there next weekend. And Massa is an almost certainty to win in Brazil!
-
Yeah was an enjoyable race! Got to lol at Hamilton who once again completely lost his head after loosing the lead off the line. Almost took out Heikki in his haste and then caused half the pack to run wide and almost all collide when he was never gonna make that corner anyways! The Bourdais penalty was rediculous!! Dunno what he could have done differently, and like they said at the time, the two of them were racing for position! Now on to China in 1 weeks time!!

Who's watching Fuji live? I will be, t'is the only way! Also, teams will be running 'green' tyres at Fuji, to promote environmental awareness amongst drivers and the motoring industry: http://www.itv-f1.com/news_article.aspx?id=44183 lol, trying to promote 'green' is just a 'tad' hypocritical after the Singapore night race!!

F*ck f*ck f*ck!! Canada not expecting race reprieve http://www.itv-f1.com/news_article.aspx?id=44181 I initially thought it was just an '09 drop, but the way Canada are talking in that article, sounds like it could be gone for good!! I really don't like the way F1 is going and I can actually see some sort of fan backlash coming about soon because I think a very large majority of F1 fans feel the same. We give F1 its viewing figures and make it a success, so I believe we should have a say in where they race! I wan't to enjoy every race; not have races like Valencia that I have to sit through as a fan of the sport but don't really enjoy! I'm honestly thinking about starting some sort of petition myself! I have no idea how to go about it, or how it get it out to the masses, but I bet it would get ALOT of signatures!
