I don't know enough about the place to have a qualified opinion. But I do know five page threads give me a numb arse. Odwin seems a good choice. I find him sexy. ... I mean that in the creepiest way possible.

Yes, I do believe this will be one to watch very closely. It seems I never stop harping on about it, but Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines had a lot of the gameplay elements Hellgate is proposing to implement, but set in a Gothic LA underworld setting. It was very, very good.

Scrubs. is. very. amusing.

Aww, hey now. Consider it downloaded (downlud?). I tried a couple of .avi files and yeah, it did flip the audio out of sync - about a second behind the video. I've actually been after a piece of software that will do this, reliably, for a while now. If you can iron out the kinks, you'd probably save me a lot of pop-ups, shitty downloads and probably one or two system crashes, attempting to get the job done elsewhere.

I want eight controllers to be usable at once, on the one console. Rather than four. So that four people could play, with two in each hand. Man.

Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl Although... you might not be able to pick it up in the next couple of months. This game easily out-runs Twilight Princess when it comes to release delays.

... ... Ummmmmm...

I guess that rules out Knights of the Old Republic. I guess it also rules out Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. A pity. Because they are both awesome games.

Half Life 2. Again.

What do you mean that's all it can say for itself?

Australian. Mate.

Ooooh - me, me, me, me, me. I've had KotOR for about a year now, but only started playing it a week ago. Since then, I've had two all-nighters and five ridiculously late...ers.

Would you care to elaborate on that for those of us who aren't pretentious and lame?

An 'accident' can only exist within absolute parameters. And everybody knows that 'only the Sith deal in absolutes'.

Did it happen twice?

It's now 6:53 a.m and I haven't slept yet. It was my Yr. 12 - last year of school - formal last night, and the after-party's just finished up. I'm keen for a bit of food.

There are a lot of parts that pull together to create a Personal Computer. A console is fairly useless without a TV. For now, anyway. While I agree with you, and I too favour consoles because they're ready out of the box, TV's are evolving along with consoles. You don't have to switch to HD this coming generation, but you will eventually. Most of us are here on RE because we're excited about the direction Nintendo is taking gaming - away from standard visual upgrades and focusing on different aspects of the medium. Both the 360 and PS3, on a standard TV, will still produce games that look better than anything this generation has to offer. HD will be the standard eventually - If you want to experience the full benefit of the coming generations' visuals, upgrade now. If not, wait a while. TV's come part and parcel with consoles - and now they are evolving, gaming's moving with them. Logically. Sooner or later, HD will get you.

Sean Bean is the greatest on-screen bad dude. Ever.

Consider yourself shot.

Hehe. Nice. Has anyone read the three Wink Martindale articles on Something Awful? They're worth a read. One Two Three

Indeed. I've been watching Spore since E3. For anyone that doesn't know what it is, this link is to the IGN E3 preview. Spore

I liked Steve Waugh better with the incredibly witty: 'Catch it... at Men's Land'.

Les Murray got down on his knees, looked to the heavens and dedicated the victory to Jonny Warren, on camera. Les Murray can do no wrong though. Has anyone seen how short he is? I once saw him standing beside Rio Ferdinand. I laughed. Hard.

Exactly. This is like complaining that HL2 looks crappy, because you have a 64 Mb video card.

Yeah, the demo ran like a bitch on my machine as well. My machine that scores a 6451 on 3DMark 05. I haven't played any more than the demo, but I predict another formulaic shooter.
