Jamba

I'm happy with the launch and it's the fact that the mix means that I'll get to play any of the type of games that I enjoy whenever I want. Be it something silly and fun (but still good) like LEGO, laid back multiplayer with my mates like Nintendo Land, some badass shooting or stabbing people with AC3 or BLOPS2, or something with a little more whimsical charm like Trine 2, Wonderful 101 or Rayman. The selection is delicious and it's topped off with MH for me personally.

Does anyone think they will do a "double play" type pack?

With voice chat this could be phenomenal.... I would happily quit WoW all together and force my friends to buy it.

Exactly, it's about making it as affordable as possible so people can get the bolt ons that they need or want.

Can someone explain why people are getting pissed about the lack of packed in Pro controller? It doesn't do anything that the tablet cant and is probably on a smidge lighter...

Remember that you can just stick in an HDD by USB or an SD card...

Was anyone else surprised at how little there was about the experience of using the Wii U? I was expecting more lifestyle type videos to demonstrate what was going to be in the box, what the peripherals were going to be (maybe missing out the cradle what DOESN'T charge the tablet) and so on. No wireless sensor bar then.... shame.

Yeah the premium one is more like £250 directly translated. Stick another 20% on that for UK I recon. Did anyone glean what the Premium Network service was? EDIT: THanks DC

Hey man, sorry for the late reply on this. Honestly, I'm just kinda getting to know how Linux works at the moment as there is a distinct logic difference in the file structure. Also, you have to get to know a lot about the stuff that Windows or Mac OSX does for you automatically although there are somethings that Linux can do more easily, like downloading files: it knows where to go on the internet to get them so you just say "download this pls" and it does it. @Ike - I got mine from RS Components with a CF card and an HDMI cable. Really want to make a case for it at the moment though as it all seems a bit precious without it :/

Ok so apparently some weird advertising campaign for the game came out recently. Great idea is a bit ropey graphically but definitely worth checking out: http://transformersonyourstreet.com/ I don't want to give any more details or it might spoil it :p

SHUT UP!

Probably this. It's an amazing book and although a little slow I learnt so much from it about how we view other people. Atticus is one of the only characters that I would actually classify as my hero. Best father ever. And then there's the book I've read more than once. 3 times probably, which for someone that doesn't really read is epic. Makes me laugh from the first page and right the way through and although not as good, the film is amazingly charming.

How many times will we hear him say mulch-playa?

On average though, they do a Direct every 3 months. I'm with Dcubed, there's a LOT for them to show. There was also all this stuff about allowing 3rd parties to be more liberal with their online systems so I'd like to see some evidence of that.

ALL ABOOOOOOOAAAAARD!

Because of the Microsoft agreement? What a stupidly weird situation... surely they must be able to after release?

It was and still is. The new version reminds me more of Stuntman if anything.

I pretty much agree with what Sam has said. But the only question left here is what will be in the box? Wii remote or no? My thoughts on the "secret" reveal would be BLOPS2. Nintendo will think it's a MASSIVE deal despite the fact that everyone assumed it was going to happen anyway.

Hope they didn't spend a lot of money developing that

Because it will have a good ending rather than a bad one?

I never understand why Rory is with her. She's such a miserable, pouty self obsessed cow. Amy is positively cruel to him on a regular basis and yet the Doctor and everyone else around them seems to totally ignore that. Where's Rory's real friend who pops up and go "tell he to fuck off! She treats you like CRAP!"

Wow, nice browser support :/ Can't open the Abbey Road or Cube's one without it shagging Chrome.

FFS... this actually had some great uses for the controller too. Thought all had been too quiet about this. Reminds me of when I got excited about a decent 3D Gundam game peeking it's head out around the release of the DS... that vaporised too.

I also caved and got this (PC version on my MAC running Windows). Been hitting the first few chapters of the campaign and almost wet myself at the end of "Metroplex Heads the Call". That final interactive sequence was brilliant. I've been hammering the multiplayer as well with my favourite class: Scout. Is it just me or does it seem like the Scout's melee attack has been nerfed? I literally can't play as that class in team death match at all as I get ripped up like paper. Been having to try to attack from afar and leg it generally but not able to cloaking for long enough to get away and not seeming to be able to lay down the damage hard enough. Going to have to fight my way to level 15 to get the sniper rifle too :/ Conquest on the other hand is perfect for Scout. It's taking some serious time to get to know the maps as well... they're HUGE!
