  1. why? best paper in the country by miles. Might be a little mental at times (their facebook = neo con world domination plot article was fucking wank) but they're genrally fucking awesom-o.
  2. yeah i saw. woop.

    GTA IV

    If you think the earliest cinematics are good, wait till the park scene with Dimitri. Breath takingly well done- it actually felt like a fucking movie!
  4. yeah it's awesome. wish people played at my speed though. Guess folks are at school etc but i'm at the library all day and i like to muse on my turns during essays. would be nice to do it more than once a day..bah.

    the AK is way more accrurate than the uzi. Hella powerful too. Boom!
  6. Turkey looks stronger than they are. lots of yellow but not much of it is actually control points. Still, they're doing well. if anyone's interested in a fastish game, i have a 12 hour turn game set up called fast non gun boat with 4 places in still. it's public, but feel free to join anyway. *hopes to get England*.
  7. suweeet! that has an amazing 'that guy' as the general. Awesome-o

    GTA IV

    I like the combat. It's punchy and action packed without being fiddly or sloppy. It's also pretty fast paced at times, espeically once you upgrade to assault rifles (fucking awesome, btw) and get to some of the bigger missions with Playboy X and Dwane on the 2nd island.
  9. just buy a wired 360 pad. they're usb and come with pc drivers.
  10. what's it on? you're a creative writer type, aye? wouldn't mind swapping some material with you as i need a 2nd eye over my drafts as my module marks are so far up shit creek that they're about to make a remake of that film about horiffic hillbilly rape.

    GTA IV

    this game just gets better and better every time i play it. finally watched republican space rangers this morning while i got ready for uni. very, very funny. As is I'm Rich.
  12. no you can't. the idea being that they're armies of your troops from your country, presumably. Things are going swimmingly in my games, except for my Italy one in which I'm being pwnd/ can't move for shit.
  13. I can't stand guys like Satriani. Boring, tech head dullard if you ask me.

    This is *much* better than the others, Really good stuff on show here you really should check out. It's awesome
  15. in my case, an army for a fleet. big change. also, new round in; jayseven. can you all hop to it in other games too,please? this is going sllloooww
  16. Digitalism and Boys Noize, for starters. Mr Oizo is also good, but a little less punchy and more complex. oh and Simian Mobile Disco
  17. I agree about Gravemind but I really like the settting of the halo games. The covenant are pretty sweet, the human tech is really sweet and the chief is a baddass of epic proportions. not because of the cut scenes but because of how you play. The arbiter in 2 was also a nice touch. It did get very hammy, though. Not denying that.
  18. Exactly. It's well done enough, and does a servicable job (unlike some of the dross in the other thread) but it's just not in the same league as the other stuff in here. also: the same plot 7 odd times or whatever is really fucking pushing it, let's be honest...
  19. QFT a better title would be 'bellend + Knife = Stabby.
  20. oooooooooooohhh wow how the fuck do you even do it?
  21. that's not true at all. maybe it's because I listen to alot of complicated stuff, but CC really don't do anything out of the ordinary with structure to me. I'm always confused when people can't see it. It's like when I played my mate Atlas by battles and he jsut called it 'noise' when it clearly has a really solid, consistent beat.
  22. But they're not good stories. They're good set ups for the standard progression which is what Nintendo do pretty well. It's not even really a problem with the series (it has far worse, but that's another thread) but there's just no way they belong in any discussion of good game stories when you compare it to Hl2, Prince of Persia or GTA4. It's a ridiculous comparison.
  23. from what they've said, it's a more mystical, Arabian Nights thing this time. it's not even sands of time territory. It sounds really interesting because I always liked the fairytale edge to the first game. correction: the system was actually really solid. the problem was just the sheer ammount of killing you had to do with it. Waaaay too much. Going back, the actual fights are far, far more fun that Warrior Within. Two Thrones added the stealth kills though, which made the fights really really good. Almost puzzle like.
  24. never been! I jest, really. I jsut don't think much to the wii. The control scheme (lets be honest, the only thing that ever made it good) has been reduced to gimicky shit by a multitude of shoddy third party shovelware.
  25. oh yeah, and fuck warrior within. It's so, so shit. The other two are two of the finest games on any last gen system, however.
