Is the 24 game a turd? I enjoy the show and like the idea of playing a series!

I wasn't really referring to your post anyway, you were just questioning if the episiode is a rip off or not. It was other's who were deciding that it is a rip off without seeing it. If people said the same thing about any show I would have replied the same way, I'm not a Dr Who fanatic or anything.

Complete every course with every car. AKA the "Can I really be bothered" achievement

Just after the bit where the Police Box materializes out of nowhere!

I think it's great that people are already calling an episode they haven't seen a rip off of War of the Worlds! Feel free to criticize a show, just try and do it AFTER you've seen it!

The Movie looks good though

LIES! I see no Street Racer Elite Achievement!

I think I just have a thing for massive bosses!

Didn't want to buy any games for it as I spend too much on games anyway! I guess the list I've already got is more than enough to keep me going for a year. Will probably go the God Of War and ICO games first as they're more my cup of tea.

Just looked on swapgame and can't find Kingdom Hearts 1... only 2 which is annoying, might have to buy it instead, shouldn't be much these days i hope.

Everyone has to find the solution that works best for them. Personally I use Windows as it does a number of things that Macs can't do. If I was at all interested in making a blog or publishing pictures/video quickly and easily, I'm sure a mac would be perfect. For someone who does nothing but browse the internet and read emails, there's not much difference between the two.

Those of you working on the Street Races in Crackdown may find the following little Tip/Glitch useful: Edit: Just for completeness, I didn't discover this myself. I found it during a google search.

Cheers, I forgot about Kingdom Hearts, need to give them a try. I've already got MGS2 on Xbox (didn't really understand the plot but it was ok). Not sure if ICO will be available as it's fairly obscure isn't it? I had silent hill 2 on Xbox too, is 3 and 4 any better? Edit: Never mind, I've found ICO on swapgame so I'll get that too. If you guys could only rent 2 games out of the above list, which would they be?

I'm getting a PS2 at the end of the month having never owned one before so I'm building a list of exclusives that i'm going to rent over the summer that I've obviously not been able to play before. So far I've got the following: God of War God of War 2 Shadow of the Collosus Final Fantasy XII Canis Canem Edit Okami Metal Gear Solid 3 Dragon Quest VIII Are there any obvious ones I'm missing, bearing in mind I'm not too bothered about Driving or Fighting games?

For all you Crackdown players: Infinite Jumping! There's got to be a full game based around this sort of thing one day!

There's a couple here at amazon, but i would email the seller to check they're the mac version before buying

I suppose the logic is that you might not have a hard drive or enough space on your memory card so why should i force you to make room for it if you bought a DVD with it on. I think it should at least be an option though.

When you earn achievements offline and then go online they are posted to your online profile so your friends and people on the internet can see them. What isn't posted is the time you earned the achievement as that cannot be verified (you could alter the time while offline to anything you like). If you check out peoples achievements online some won't have a date unlocked next to them, meaning they earned them offline. Microsoft will definately have backups of all the gamertags and achievements, no enterprise level database wouldn't have a data recovery solution. They are probably mirrored as well, meaning that multiple versions of the same database are held on different servers in case one server fails. Guess what I do for a living!

Quite a few wireless hubs have a repeater mode, which extends the ranger of an existing wireless network... example: http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductInfo.asp?WebProductID=276873

They're banning xboxes though, not accounts. People with modded xboxes can still log into their account via an un-modded xbox so I doubt people will be locked out of live for account issues.... not yet anyway. If something similar happened for invalid overseas accounts, they would just ban the account, not the machine it was using.

I'll be around then, assuming my Internet connection speed isn't stupidly low again.

The teams were always full whenever I looked

If they do co-op the storyline won't that throw out the whole "Last Spartan in the Universe" angle?

King of Fourn...yeeaahh! G45 = Guy Fourm 5park?? Too abstract?
