Hamilton has already proved himself to be an arrogant prick and I don't see that changing anytime soon! Kovaleinen was poor today. Congrats to Vettel, great drive!! I think he'll take over one of the Ferrari seats in 2011, as he'll be 24 by then, have more experience and be a more complete racer. Ferrari just didn't seem to have it today in terms of strategy. Proven by the fact that Massa actually finished a place lower than where he started! At least Kimi made up 5 places and was absolutely on fire in terms of pace throughout the final stint. Massa however, threw away a huge chance!

Add Goldeneye to that list.

I really like Heikki, but I just don't know if he has what it takes to be a World Champion. Just havn't seen that phenomenal drive from him yet or that ruthless determinism.

Yeah agreed!

Not forgetting he was on pole at Silverstone in the wet and just fell away during the race!

Devastator in Transformers 2?.. Not really knowing much about the Transformers Comics/Cartoons I don't get it! Devastator was in the first movie as a tank. So how can they now have Devastator being made up of Constructicons in the sequel, and have him in different colours etc... why not just go with someone else? or why have him as a singular Decepticon in the first? I'm just taking this as a rumour! Also... A fully rendered digital Arnie face on all the robots, not liking the sound of that! They'd better do it well or it will look shit!! Plus, won't he now look old!

Get ready to hold forward on that analogue stick, there's a new Sonic trailer... Great Wall http://www.gametrailers.com/player/39900.html Not liking that level as much, seemed to be way over bloomed. Still not convinced by Were-Sonic either.

I know! I can't remember one either! It's well worth watching the Free Practice 1 highlights to see what we could have in store! Exciting prospect!

Was it always Monoliths project? I thought it was originally a Nintendo project and then handed over to Monolith with their acquisition.

Unless you're Ferrari, who seem to have built a car so rediculously dependant on temperatures, that it's undrivable if conditions aren't within their small window of margin! The 2007 Ferrari seemed to be able to cope far better, and it's something that needs to be put right for next year. EDIT: Though hopefully '09 will be a hot season, as the '08 car is sublime in the heat!

Or even BMW :wink: If there's a team I really want to see have a turn around in form, it's Williams. They deserve to be doing better.

Animal crossing gets a name change for its Austrailian release: Animal Crossing: Let's Go to the City http://www.cubed3.com/news/10712

Really enjoyed 2nd Practice!

Thanks for that! That site intro movie is awesome! First person shooting looks great, and there's a really good variety of action! The driving sections look especially cool!

AWESOME!! I'm SO HAPPY he's staying in the sport!! Well Honda said this week that they are holding out for Alonso, and will wait for as long as he needs to make up his mind. If they offer up the vast salary he probably wants, it's looking likely we may see Fernando there in the future! Either that or a chance of Heidfelds drive at BMW. It was also reported this week that Buttons contract at Honda still hasn't been sorted out after months of talks. But surely the team would rather have a Button-Alonso pairing. So it's on to Free Practice 2, and the track's drying out.

It's wierd seeing Monza was so wet! I missed most of this practice, what brought the red flag out? just too wet to continue?

Yeah cos I'm really bitching about it! Fucks sake! I don't actually care that much, just expressing an opinion that I'd have liked more continuity. Watch the above video, it's a massive lake!

So on to Monza this weekend!! Another favourite circuit; the Spa-Monza combo is so awesome! And what do you know, more rain is forecast for the race weekend! I can't remember a season where it's been cold and/or wet at practically every race, even the circuits you can normally count on to be hot have been overcast! But still, really looking forward to it, starting with practice tommorrow! Also, here are the thoughts of the drivers in Thursday press conference, on last weekends action...

That's cool! Stick Hyrule castle in that picture and you've got what WW gave us! and since when was the castle on Lake Hylia!

Yeah I know! How am I saying this wrong?!

Yeah I know, I said she was still around! But had they had a Season 4 intro in episode 1 [when some may have thought she'd been killed off] that showed her in the rest of the series, then you'd know she hadn't been killed off! That's why they left the intro until episode 3, cos she was shown at the end of Ep 2.

Well after having fought to save Hyrule in OOT, and seeing as WW follows on from OOT...Once you get down to the flooded Hyrule in WW it would have been nice to actually see a place and field I recognised, the Hyrule I had fought to protect, frozen in time. Instead I looked out on a place I didn't recognise and just thought WTF this isn't Hyrule!

Oh and one more thing... Damn was I ever pleased to see the Prison Break intro turn up in Episode 3! I love the theme [really gets me in the mood for the show every time I here it] and how the backgrounds change with each series. After only getting the simple prison break "dong" and name, in episodes 1 & 2, I thought maybe they'd followed the increasing american trend for really short intros [Lost, Ugly Betty, Heroes...]. But I guess they didn't want to give away Season 4 character info, such as Sara's return [for those who didn't know] no Whistler and Gretchen still being around etc...

And how difficult can assigning, up shake, down shake, left shake, right shake etc... really be?!

I'd have just liked a cel-shaded OOT overworld to look out on for nostagia's sake!
