  1. razor is filler but really classy filler not seen the webisode stuff the game is, reportedly, dogshit.
  2. I'm seeing her on Saturday go team....me and Paj!...at different times....
  3. Fight Club convinced me Brad Pitt is really talented. Unfortunately, he's been doing his best to prove me wrong ever since.
  4. Niko Bellic on a pedal bike? ridiculous. I only played a bit of SA- I thought it looked horrible, sounded worse and the whole gym/eating stuff was dumb as fuck.
  5. this title is shit! good birthday though. yeah.
  6. I'd agree with you on body of lies. It was solid enough for the most part but it was a bit weaksauce where it really counted. It was trying to be Le Carré, but just dn't didn't cut it. Hohum.

    GTA IV

    I've been playing TLAD this week- better late than never! Brilliant stuff. Jonny is a much better character than Niko. I think that by not making him an outsider like N.B, he is more firmly anchored in Liberty. He makes more sense, and that makes me care. I absolutely adore the gang atmosphere too. Again, it lends context and weight to a game that, by it's very nature, lacks both.
  8. I just got to The Walking Dead #50 um.... Jesus Christ... ....
  9. Hardly. I mean, it's good but there's a good few tracks on tat album alone that are far better. Fraking amazing album I reckon. I love it.
  10. BBQ and lots of beer with my old school mates last night. Absolutely awesome actually-played ring of fire which was massive win. Trying to learn Poker, too. I held my own for a while but I need to play sober for once and actually pay attention
  11. yeah my fault really. I started it in the spur of the moment then realised it was the worst time to do it ever. True story. Anyway count me in, suckers.
  12. DWP is the department for work and pensions.
  13. riddick, by my book. 24th o this month.
  14. oddly enough sexy, toned tv stars make alot of outfits work that wouldn't work on most people
  15. I think I missed out not doing the same. D'oh. Oh well. Still looked great on my...19 in pc monitor
  16. Waltz With Bashir Truly remarkable stuff. A kind of dramatised documentary in which, through interviews with old friends, eye witnesses and observers, the film maker attempted to regain his repressed memories of the first Lebanon War. As an Israeli soldier at the time, he bore witness to the massacre of Palestinian civilians by vengeful Christian militias- a massacre the Israeli army failed to stop. It's a fascinating, brave and insightful work of self examination that deals with war guilt, the damages of war on the young and, most importantly, dares to ask if Israeli soldiers effectively took on the role of Nazi's by allowing the massacres. Absolutely amazing stuff- The animation is incredible too; lending the experience a lurid, hallucinatory feel-It perfectly captures the essence of detachment many of the interviewees express about the war; a kind of self defence mechanism that veils the horrors they saw and were part of. In the final moments of the film, the animation is replaced by newsreel footage of the massacre's aftermath- a moment that mirror's the return of the director's memories- the defences are breached, and it's quite possibly the most harrowing five minutes of footage I've ever seen, such is the impact of that barrier coming down. Watch it.
  17. IMO Alien Hominoid kinda sucks. It's pretty, and kinda fun but it's so ridiculously hard I simply can't see myself ever getting past the first level or two- and I consider myself pretty good at games too.
