I'm opting for the PS3 this time round - I have fancied a 360 for a while now, but if Im spending that much money then Ill gun for the PS3 - Some sucker will let one go for 100 bucks in the area I live because of their drugs habits then all i have to do is disinfect the controllers and unit its self as to not catch hepatitis or aids.

heh , I did not know about the watchman universe. I love how it starts up with bob dylans the times they are a changing song.

Watchmen Fucking weird film - its about a bunch of ex superheroes who have retired. What I failed to notice is that it actually gets you thinking and portraying an actual story, instead of a guy going "I got flames and shit!!!!" Wonderfully directed and thought provoking. Best character by far is the detective with a mask on that shape shift like Psychiatrists blot cards. The prison scenes are funny as fuck. Check it out if you like different angles on common stuff. 2 hours 30 minutes. So make sure your comfy and its raining out side. Still the superhero costumes look fucking stupid - I dont care what anyone says batman is in this movie.

Are games sucking more or are we just old gamers?

We don't see enough passion in games now. The bottom line is money and core/older gamers are getting hit worse, sure we chose what we buy and i for one only buy A+ Titles or game genres Im really fond off. I am looking to get a PS3 and a HDTV in december and maybe a DS - hell id like them all but going for what I like the look of and the games i can get. What set this off for me was the recent play through of MW2 - I cant find one word to sum it all up but it is a mixture of disappointment/greatness/ and some hot shot market analyst saying "I told you so." market analyst: This dildo is the best - I dont care what you say - Ill charge what I want and get it - you cant catch me out. And how many movies feel so predictable now? 2 Kool dudes walk in a room full of nut cases and beat the shit out of them doing flips and shit. Rambo didnt know ninjitsu... I have lost count of how many movies I have watched lately where by city's are destroyed or famous landmarks are fucked up (cough 2012 - MW2) The best game I have played all year is Batman Asylum - the best movie I have seen all year if I exclude eye candy is Gran torino with clint eastwood. MW2 will just get stashed on my external hard drive unless one day I feel like playing multiplayer - but the last good multiplayer game I played was Battlefield 2. I remember flying my f16 through those tunnels at the aqueduct map and some guy running through probably thinking "Wtf?" -

Yeah, dont get me wrong my best gaming memories are of multiplayer firing up the all seeing eye to find a MOHAA server on 56k dial up and finding a ping of 125 was amazing - I was always on that server and one guy ruled it - i was a top three player easily after 6 months of playing but could never beat this guy - turns out he had some hacks that never missed. I used to call my self "Mr Club" and all I did was run round pistol whipping people. People used to fire a clip off at me and miss THEN RUN While I bashed after them saying "Just let it happen!" Counterstrike was a good game too. -

What really is odd now is that the industry expects you to have an internet connection, preferably a hard line. A lot of poor people are missing out - or people who like to have a PC but don't want the internet. if it wasn't for this dongle thing I got I would be screwed, sure I can not play on-line games because my ping is so shitty on a wireless connection - it just feels like they are controlling our hobbies and telling us we must do this we must do that to play a game. We get stuck with a needle for something we like and they suck it out till there is no blood left (cough GTA) If it was not for piracy i would of not played... well nearly all the game I have this year. I remember buying farcry two and installing it only to find out I needed to activate it on-line - so i had to take my rig up to my old man's house just to activate it!!! i think my main points are Gaming is becoming quite an expensive hobbie/entertainment. (How long before we get fed up of EPIC titles like MW2?) Poor people who dig games will find it hard to play all the new stuff and get all the cool updates. (Me been one of them) if your hungry and you have no money you go with out. In gaming the idea is the same - now when you buy something it looks set to be yours for ever. Thats why i love the pirates Vinnie: Yoshis island is in my top ten game of all time: Touch fuzzy get dizzy! DS version blowed though. -
When I say old I mean for the length of time we have seen games evolve. In the last few years games have become so big that its all but expected that they do well when they have the right name or loyal following. The nintendo Wii sucks - I'm sorry guys but its just crap there are only a handful of titles I want for that machine and no way in hell does it warrant me purchasing a unit just to play super Mario galaxy. The games that spring to mind for the reason of this topic: Metroid prime: How fucking AWESOME was this game? Then what happened? they churned out a really shitty sequel nowhere near as good, polished or lovingly crafted as prime. No we have another few cash ins that dont even go down in the halls of fame. Metal gear solid: Playstation version - I shit my pants at how great this game was - and then I shit them even more with MGS2 - Then when sneak eater came out - I punched an old lady in the face THEN shit my pants. Apparently MGS4 if shit but I have only heard that of my friends. Super mario: nes upwards, then I think it hit a really bad patch with super mario sunshine - apparently its been reprieved with galaxy. resident evil: All kicked off on the PS one then hit its prime with resi 4 (the best game ever in my opinion) then we get resi 5. What I have been seeing is games company's so "cocky" of there art and the ignorance of the market that when a game sells well they can just cough another squeal out like its nothing. I don't wanna hear shit about profits I wanna know where the love has gone into making games. I just got through modern warfare 2 - an excellent game with AI flaws and a tendencies to actually be quite boring in single player mode. And the prices they were charging (other than some supermarkets) was shocking. Im so glad I did not buy this game. This year I have only seen a handful of games do anything awesome - Batman asylum been one, GTA BORE (lol that was a funny replacement for the number 4!) although good soon i found my self cutting the story short. Why is everything going to the multiplayer experience? Why are company's trying to control what we play and how we play it - and even control what we do with something we own so we cant sell it on. Crappy bullshitty downloadable content - remember when you just bought an expansion pack for red alert then the worst that could be expected was a few patches here and there? What are your thoughts on the current climate?

I read in the paper that as many as one million xboxes could be banned. But "hackers" are finding ways round microsucks checks with stealth chip.

I'm up to the oil rig level no way is this game better than MW1. I actually find it occasionally irritating because the enemies sit in cover and don't do fuck all and they spawn in fucked up spots like i dunno on top of your head while your lied down in cover? AI is pretty bad. make me have flashbacks to world at war which was a steaming pile of shit.

I am about to watch and if barry burton from resident evil on the playstation is not in it I think its fail! 47 46 23 LOL
-
OFP I was going to look into that but apparently you can run half way across a map and get zipped by a bullet and that's that , start again. That does not sound like fun to me.
-
Thats really bad for a machine as powerfull as the PS3.
-
The new STAR TREK All I can say is WOW. 9/10 Large rocks fall on peoples heads. And that black chick would instantly cure my retarded ejaculation problem. If I ever got in to trouble for rape it would be with her.

The taking pelham 123 - good movie John travolta is excellent as the bad guy i give it a generous 7.5/10

Woah lean is gone? We went over the download at my old man's the router kept shutting off so he switched to XP and for some reason the download shot up to 3MEG a second says 11 hours should have it tomorrow afternoon when he gets in from work. The holy bible of reviews "gamecentral" or teletext as its know in england gave this 9/10 I got my hopes back up a little more now.
-
Well duh emsley = I must of got the game hacked early
-
I cant read it yet shibat. Edit: I just found out my download was going for over 8 hours and it only managed 1.4% on 4 meg connection configured correctly - all the seeds had fucked off. I am not a happy camper.
