  1. This new time travelling Jurassic Park style dinosaur series started tonight. What does everyone think? Personally I don't really like it, and actually seems a bit of a step back from the likes of Walking with Dinosaurs etc... which I really liked! Some reasons why I don't like it; - The presenter is an idiot, who dispite wanting to setup up his own dinosaur park, seems to know very little about dinosaurs, how to approach them, how he wants to catch them! - If your time travelling back to catch dinosaurs, why would you go back to 2 days before the meteor hits; giving you no time at all! - The T-Rex eggs had hatched (the easiest way to get a T-Rex), so why not just go back to when they hadn't! - I don't like how they've coloured some dinosaurs so brightly - The enclosures at the moment are made of wood! Anyway, just seems abit rubbish to me at the moment!
  2. Holly Valance is the only reason I'd want to watch this film!
  3. Yeah it's a great read! Sega and Ubisoft are the two companies that really understand Wii! They have understood the message and realised the potential far earlier than alot of other companies and it's reflected in the support! So much so (in Ubisofts case) that Wii games are becoming the priority, and the other consoles are having to wait!! The message was already there with the DS; Lets hope other developers are quick to truely realise the power of Wii!
  4. I'll sell you a brand new/sealed Core 360 for £180, but you'll have to pay P&P aswell!
  5. OK, I've been waiting for something to be shown from this film for ages now! and IMO, the turtles look terrible! Teenage Mutant HERO Turtles was one of my favourite things when I was young!... I loved it! And from the occasional episode I've seen of the new TMNT cartoon, it's actually pretty good! I didn't like that trailer though! The turtles moved like frogs (and even look abit like frogs)! When I first heard it was gonna be CGI, I thought the turtles from the previous films could look pretty good in CGI! Then I heard it was going to be based on the new cartoon series; which also could have worked well, as it has a great style! This film seems to have mixed the two though and at the moment I'm not sure it works! + = Saying that, if I watch the trailer a few more times and get used to it, I'll probably end up liking it! and it's likely I'll see the movie anyway!
  6. I can understand people who play Ocarina of Time for the first time nowadays, not liking it! Firstly, Ocarina of Time is my favourite game EVER........ EVER!! But nowadays if I start a new playthrough of the game, I probably don't enjoy it quite as much as I did back in the N64 days. (Though I still enjoy the Ganondorf fight and ending just as much! It's one of the best gaming moments ever!) The problem is simply that times have changed! Playing the game now the graphics don't bother me either (it's part of the charm!), However I think the story and adventure as a whole has been greatly effected as times gone on. The story (by todays standards) now lacks ALOT of depth (where before it seemed an epic adventure) and the game as a whole can actually feel pretty linear. Hyrule also seems much smaller and confined, where before it was the complete opposite. So much of what made the game special on the N64 has been copied or bettered by todays games, so the game just won't appear as special or groundbreaking if you're playing it for the first time now! To be fully appreciated, Ocarina of Time had to be experienced in the N64 era, when it was truely like nothing you could have ever imagined! and thankfully that's how I saw it!
  7. I usually have a; Chicken, Bacon and Cheese Melt with Lettuce, Tomatoes, Green Peppers, Olives, with Ceaser and Mayonaisse dressing!
  8. Looks incredible!! Looks as though it will really get you thinking with really challenging puzzles! which is awesome! http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=11883&type=wmv&pl=game
  9. Here's the 5 minute video of the original Resi 4; As good as the original Resi 4 looked, I really wouldn't want to go back to a game set in a mansion! I really liked the changing environments of Code Veronica and Resi 4! Resi 4 was absolutely perfect IMO, it really kept the story moving. Whilst there's no real way of knowing yet; it looks like Resi 5 will continue the trend.
  10. Not sure if this gameplay video is new, but it was posted on http://www.cubed3.com just the other day; http://www.cubed3.com/news/5522 Looks incredible!!
  11. Just remembered the original Sonic DS E3 demo; http://uk.media.ds.ign.com/media/682/682909/vids_1.html Looks like it was the inspiration for Sonic Wild Fire!
  12. Good quality trailer; Trailer http://www.gametrailers.com/player.php?id=8979&type=wmv&pl=game http://www.gametrailers.com/gamepage.php?fs=1&id=1734
  13. Yeah I can't see the appeal of a Resi 4 port with Seperate Ways included AT ALL! If you watch all the Seperate Ways cutscenes on the internet (which is all I'd want to play it for anyway!), you'll see it doesn't actual reveal a great deal more of the story, and it's only meant to last a couple of hours! Playing as Lius and Krauser on top of this would be extremely boring! Krauser doesn't really need any more of a story and is only in the last chapter anyway; and Luis would be revisiting the exact same areas as Leon and Ada, plus he doesn't even make it past the castle! It would be a complete waste of Capcoms development time anyway! Most people will already have the GC or PS2 version and they might aswell spend time on a new game that everyone will buy! Resi 4 continued (Resi 6), Resi 5 or Resi 2 remake please!
  14. Code Veronica happened between Resi 2 and 4, ending with Chris and Claire (no doubt meeting up with Jill etc...) going to finish Umbrella 'Once and for all!' IMO it's quite likely Resi 5 will tell this story; which if the case, is why I'd SO like there to be a Wii version! The clues are there; Zombies not Plagas, A character that looks like an older version of Chris, who's been hidding from and tracking Umbrella down for a long time; hence the rough look! Though the location doesn't make much sense, because it doesn't look European! I'd like to see (in order); 1. Resident Evil 4 Continued... Leon could be in more of a city environment this time (like that of Resi 2), though maybe start the game off Rural, but please no Mansion!! Also, let Leon re-unite with Claire and have her as a second playable character (whether just for a few chapters, or as an alternate character)! 2. Resident Evil 5 Graphics shouldn't have to be any better than Resi 4 and it can be either an exclusive Wii-mote version, or the standard version with the 'classic' controller, I don't mind! I'd just like to get a chance to play the game; as long as it's a key part of the current Resi storyline! 3. Resident Evil 2 Remake This is very unlikely IMO, but I haven't played the game and it looks awesome!
  15. Of the Zelda's I've played; OOT > MM > WW > LOZ > AOL
  16. Yeah, I still type in http://www.ign.com, but the page loads with the address http://uk.ign.com!
  17. Jayne is getting MORE and MORE annoying!! Saying Aisleyne was being speaking to her horribly (over that whole sandwich thing), when she wasn't! Saying she likes people to have manners; as she sits there eating with her mouth open, burbing etc... You could tell Suzie was just thinking 'your one to talk' Trying to sound good infront of Lea! Saying they need sleep on their last night, when I bet Lea's not actually bothered because she likes to have fun! At least Lea has seen Jayne for what she is! And yes, Jennie is fit!
  18. OMG!!!!! Full Daily Telegraph article (Must Read!!) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2006/07/07/nwii07.xml Scan of Newspaper article http://www.cubed3.com/media/2006/July/mrt/Telegraph.jpg
  19. Actually it's extremely surprising because they probably all own playstation's/playstation 2's
  20. Great bit of publicity work by Nintendo!! I hope Newsround go on to do a feature on the Wii closer to the time of it's launch; which they probably will. It's a programme that many people will see, both parents and children (who will then talk about it with friends etc...) and on at a great time; before Neighbours!! The Wii would be bound to get a great review on the programme aswell, seeing as it left Ellie the presenter in Awe! Great quote about the price from ONM! One not so good quote from ONM (WHY!!!!!) And the article says Wii is doing awesome in the latest poll!!
  21. The first Extreme-G on the N64 was an awesome game! I hope what ever they do with the series, it's a game as great as the first! Another Ecco the dolphin would be great aswell!
  22. Here's an idea; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2gUPLI_4iQ&search=zidane%202006
  23. Hallelujah is an awesome song! I really don't know my one favourite album; Greendays American Idiot is fantastic though!
