    This works on the idea that television shows are renewed on quality though, which they're really not. It's all about the numbers (or you have to be a huge fan/critical darling which explains why 30 Rock, Chuck and others are still on the air). Looking at FF's numbers you can see why the network were disappointed:

    Those figures are a whole lot better than some shows which are still on the air (syfy's being human i'm looking at you)

     

    during most of that period it was pitted against some heavy hitting shows, which was a shame, because i think had it been shown in its entirety after 24/lost had ended then it would have stole their audiences

     

    as for the Neilson Ratings, its a terrible system, it doesn't account for recording a show, or online viewers of a show, but worst of all Neilson ratings is based on a flawed random selection, people have to accept to be neilson homes, and/or fill out diaries, this isn't random at all! the people who accept these may be biased (very very scaled down explanation...i could copy from wikipedia....nah just google it)

     

    when the system is updated maybe we will get a decent system

     

    and in the case of 30 rock... thats just network bias/producer bias which is something that may never be extinguished

    the current trend with producers is to assume we all like reality shows, and don't like anything with a serial nature

    its all utter bollocks!

    the bible says the only person who knows is GOD, not even Jesus knows, these are just religious PR stunts by nutters! he's made millions from this, and gained more followers who feared dying without being true believers

    Oh come on! you've got to be kidding me! what next? the US getting a statue of link on epona?

    japan getting an actual Triforce

     

    I'm surprised we haven't gotten a turd with a triforce stamped in it!

     

    what is going on?! its just utterly disgusting, i know they have to get stores onside to produce these and sell them, so is this apathy due to UK/European Stores lack of wanting to offer something?

    The locals look nice, but all of that was cut scenes, in-game scenes and FMV, none of that was actual gameplay, how many cod players care about the story? not many

    I do, and i'm sure some if not all of us here do, but the average COD player i've met only goes on about multiplayer. theres one guy i know who has never played the single player on MW2 or BO.

     

    I'm not gonna be impressed until is see game play, and even then i will probably only buy this when its dropped in price by 50%, the game is a multiplayer with a half arsed story mode attached.

    The problem with that is the multiplayer was broken 3/4 games ago and its never been fixed, that and its completely unrealistic run and gun. Its too easy i get bored after five min, nobody plays in teams or squads it might as well be every man for himself on every mode.

     

    I still play Rainbow six vegas and Battlefield multi players due to the more realistic and squad based multiplayer

     

    the sad thing is, even though i've really gone off COD, I'll still probably buy this at some point because i've enjoyed the story modes and Zombies. :sad:

    that image has got to be fake

    its posted here and in the comments someone asks for a High res version for "home use", that was three days ago, i'd bet that guy along with a display copy from a store, will be the origin of this fake

    or someone thinking exactly the same

    Have to say i agree with Cube, that was the first thing i thought when i saw this

     

    Can't say I'm impressed with having ANOTHER cloned doctor, it was fine cloning Tenant as it wrapped up "rose" meaning she need never return, but having another! god he best melt/die in the next episode

     

    I just hope the clone doctor doesn't build his own tardis, unless he goes back to the first episode and he's the one to die

     

    And as fr the Rani, its got to be, i mean a being who seems to be monitoring/observing outside of normal space and Time, not to mention somehow a time lord child has been created

     

    I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out in the final episode (after every single episode scanning Amy once or twice) that she gives birth, to a timelord child genetically manipulated by Rani, to use as a host to escape the time lock.

     

    For some reason this is a problem, madness ensues and River does something to dispose of/send the child back through time, in the process killing Rory (since she kills a good man) and saving the day, only not how the Doctor would like so he leaves her on that prison world

     

    the only good thing out of all that is it will be the last time we see River

    I'm really disappointed that they cancelled this show, it was great and got better and better

     

    the problem with TV shows these days seem to be they decide if they are renewing after the first half of the eipisodes or earlier, and more often than not the season picks up and improves in the second half

     

    for example, Flash Forward, it was pitted against the likes of 24 and lost and failed, then they ended, the season continued and got better and better, but by this point they hadn't renewed and the cast had moved on

    Now the sames happened to No Ordinary Family

    And Stargate Universe, although thats more to do with other issues as well

    I've had quite a few hits lately, i seem to get a few hits in the White Rose centre, probably GAME employee's but 1 is definitely an Argos employee, and not their demo models (the home is locked?)

    And i always get 1 or two in the City Centre

    good god this game looks awesome! i'm glad they are going back to what worked, the last time i liked a console sonic game was sonic adventure 2, and even then it wasn't as good as sonic 1,2,3 & Knuckles
