That Guy

Cheers for the help, I'll give it a try.

I think the sticky out tongue suggested I was joking. Tit.

DO NOT get Mobile Suit Gundam. It's been getting utterly wank reviews, and it was on On the Spot a few months ago and it looked utterly terrible.

He still spelt afraid wrong :p How do you do an over the head shot?Is it just pressing Y to lob? Because whenever I do that I always lose a point by a smash. Whats the best way to do that?

I didn't realise just how much I utterly suck at Virtua Tennis until I went online. I tend to just be diving all over the place.

But Virtua Tennis is online on the 360 and it isn't on PS3 is it? So I'd recommend getting on 360. But Virtua Fighter will be better on PS3 due to the pad being more suited. None of his posts make any sense.

I think he meant upright and then horizontal. Although the 360 is designed to be upright so I wouldn't have thought that would make a difference.

Yeah, exactly, although I wasn't at all pissed off with the show, and every point was well made and there was a whole thing about comparing Wii to the start of the Gamecube lifespan and then DS, so it was quite good. My podcast ended 30 seconds to early though :s Just wouldn't play the last 30 seconds.

Lol, I like the attitude mate, but it's been done and got us nowhere (well, I didn't email, but I've moaned for years, and signed 'The Petition'). Microsoft would get a fair amount of love from every Shenmue fan if they were to pay for it to be made. I don't think it would sell masses of consoles, but I think it would make them as a company look good.

There are always problems with new technology. I would actually say that the fact that he's had no problems since the initial ones is actually encouraging.

Is Heatseeker actually out?

Oh, great. I'm just about to listen to it, and no doubt I'll be really pissed off by the end. To be honest though, I don't care anymore. I'm so sick of this ridiculous console 'war'. I just want to buy a console to play some games, and I don't want to have to buy 3 consoles when the first one I bought stops getting supported because not enough people bought it. If Wii fails then I wont buy a Nintendo console again. If XBOX 360 gets cut short (unlikely) then I simply will stop buying games. After getting burned with the Dreamcast and Gamecube, I'm simply tired of the whole thing.

I really need to play some more of that. It's really good so far.

Well, not really. I got mine back in about 4 days, and the ones that are being manufactured now are more reliable. Also it was never that high anyway, it was just you only ever heard about the failure rate on the internet.

Yay, over 3000 points now. That bright pink court felt like it was melting my eyes...

I certainly hope so, because I'm a bit tired of hearing Nintendo fans whine about having no games to play, when they really mean, they've got no Nintendo games to play.

:p I was playing on normal. Component.

Christ, that demo must have been on very hard or something, cus I just played an exhibition and won without losing a point.

As great as this is, and I'm not trying to sound like I'm moaning about PS3, but is there not the trade off of it using up a hell of a lot of electricity? Just to say something positive, I saw Virtua Tennis 3 running in 1080p today in Gamestation on a fairly big TV and it look incredible. I think it was running on PS3 (with the launch and everything) but it could have been XBOX360 (they both do 1080p). Either way, the game looked amazing.

I'll say it again. Nintendo fans have to realise that 3rd party games count as good games on the system. Sonic, SSX, Godfather, Tiger Woods, have all come out recently, yet they don't seem to count in the 'games drought' we are apparently in. Every console launch goes exactly the same way every time. System launches with 2-3 really good games, then goes through a month or 2 without a game, then we get a decent games every couple of weeks. By the end of the year we'll have 4-5 must have games (Mario Galaxy and Paper Mario as examples). I'll admit the friend code thing is bollocks, but other than that Nintendo is getting it right so far. Probably why the was no 360 game out this week to compete with PS3 launch.

That's so very sad...

Just got Virtua Tennis 3 with the remainder of my credit note from Gamestation. Had some kid ask me to trade his credit note for £40...

Well I got Zelda and Monkey Ball for launch, then Excite Truck, then Sonic, and just bought SSX Blur last week. Next I'll probably buy Elebits, or Paper Mario, not sure yet, depends when Paper Mario is out.

So you make something up in your head and then suddenly it's what's going to happen?

Me too, thas why I wish Nintendo would get their act together and sort online out.
