Dyson Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 Aw I missed He Said She Said. What was it like? And you can only win things during the actual live show itself, not these Extended Play sessions. Next Live Show is this Friday at 7:30pm.
Dyson Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 Dyson you're really homo for liking that "game". I can't think of a retort.
Pantsu Man! Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 BattleField is extremely addictive. I found myself saying 'just one more game' at least 3 times just now. Coming top of my sides table quite a lot of the time never gets old. It's so good. Can't fly the plane or be a sniper though. Give me rifleman and I'll own that shit.
Hero-of-Time Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 Aw I missed He Said She Said. What was it like? And you can only win things during the actual live show itself, not these Extended Play sessions. Next Live Show is this Friday at 7:30pm. He Said She Said was easy as hell. I only played the first 10 questions ( Beermonkey was in for a while ) and I answered all of them but one, I had to skip one of them. It was much easier than the stupidly hard Pan Euro quiz.
Zell Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 I did quite well on the Pan Euro, got 80% correct. It's pretty cool, I wish it was a bit faster though.
Dyson Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 (edited) Woop, live games this Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm. Been playing loads of Extended Play so fingers crossed for selection in to the Mob. Anyone play Community Written earlier? The first question had me laughing quite hard, "What is the capitol of Scotland?" as if anyone could get it wrong. But I think 3000 people did? Crazy. And then there was the stupid question "How many figners does the average person have?" with the answers 6, 8 or 10. The answer was 8 which I picked but I could see myself getting annoyed if the answer was 10 Edited July 15, 2009 by Dyson

Dyson Posted July 15, 2009 Posted July 15, 2009 A certain King of Fun was one of them. You've got to be kidding me. After he lived a stone's throw away from Scotland for a while? Best news ever.
LegoMan1031 Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Has anyone else had bad experiences with the play and charge battery packs for the controllers? I got one with the red controller few months back and now it refuses to charge. Everytime i attempt to the light is red for a few seconds then goes green. On the dashboard it shows the controller as having a full battery but as soon as i unplug it the battery dies a few seconds later!

I have a black one and a white one and neither have ever gone wrong.
Noodleman Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Anybody else got/getting Monkey Island, why is there not a fred for it?

My white one does this, first the wire broke so i bought a black charger pack, and the white battery is startin to go on the blink, charges for fuck all time, its lasted since release though so not tooo bothered, the black one still works like a charm tho
Caris Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 When I had my 360 a few of mine did it, bit of a joke really.
S.C.G Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 'tis a shame that MS didn't just make it a mini USB - standard USB connection on the controller...
LegoMan1031 Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Ok, thanks guys. I think i shall just avoid them in future and just stick to other types of rechargeable batteries.
