Ive been with some serious nut cases - im no sane sheriff eithier, but i know now i dont want any of that in my life ever again, guess i learned the hard way about some things.

No.

Dude Im not gonna lie I punched a girl in the face. While i had exceptional circumstances to do this - I can safely say it was a great moment. I'm also probably going to hell for it. I was in the dock facing no bail and she was sat there with the greatest shiner in the universe... I know im a bastard for this but after what she did to me I laugh. yeah im going to hell. One of my girls said I hit her once when i was drunk (she used to hit me throw shit at me) she said i was stood there drunk and i just jabbed her in the cheek. then went to bed and went to sleep... I Dont remember that at all. I did it though because she had a red mark on her cheek. Dont let them get that rise out of you, some of them get off on been hit, ive seen it with my own eyes, my ex was arguing with me telling me all these vile things about me purposefully winding me up - and it just came out of my and i slapped her round the face, two minutes later she was telling me how much she loved me... Some of them are just plain bad news!

This sucker caught my eye late last year and I have been eagerly awaiting this arrival. First things first the basics the storey and the type of game we are playing: I'm sure by now you know that metro 2033 is a FPS set in post apocalyptic Russia in the surprising year of 2033. the game roots its ideas from Dmitry Glukhovsky, a writer who wrote metro 2033 (and with the looks of it other books set in the metro theme) and as far as I can tell the Russian people love it so THQ signed him up and laid down the groundwork for a great game. Now you may or may not be surprised to know that the team behind Metro 2033 worked on the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R shadow of Chernobyl - S.T.A.L.K.E.R endured many set backs and many pitfalls on it's way to becoming a real on the shelf game, and when it did finally get here it was as politely as can be possibly said 'rough.' But never the less S.T.A.L.K.E.R was an original and enjoyable game. Could some of the origanal S.T.A.L.K.E.R team pull off another game with high expectations? Mostly yes, and with a small, and by small i mean very tiny hints of no. You are a guy by the name of Artyom - born and raised in the subway systems of Metro, he has never seen the sky or been outside he only knows about topside life through pictures and storeys from his fellow subway buddy's. To cut this short Artyom decides to go and kick some ass and heads out into the world of Metro 2033 and this is where you take over. It's time to kick ass. The game immerses you from the start, as you move from point A to point B the game world starts to come alive, there is no money in Metro 2033 there are only "military grade ammunition" that counts as currency, and this is where things get a little more interesting you can get dirty bullets so called because they take one military grade round and take out the gunpowder and mix it with "filler" to make more bullets - these "dirty rounds" are no where near as powerful as clean rounds but are a lot easier to come by than the elusive clean rounds. I'm all out of clean rounds but I got plenty of dirty rounds so get pulling and pushing I wanna go faster! You spend most of your time underground moving from station to station they act as mini rest areas and interaction spots for your character these are also a place to exchange ammo types and buy new weapons but early on Dont worry too much about scoring high grade ammunition or bigger better guns most of the game I used dirty ammo constantly throughout the game and had no real need to use the clean ammo, so it makes you wonder a little about the point of all this. Metro 2033 is set like a movie and an FPS there are many enjoyable moments in the game that put this FPS above a lot of its competition, the game does a great job of building a claustrophobic atmosphere, especially when you have to put your gas mask on, you can hear the character breathing sucking in air as your visor mists up and distorts your vision giving you that feeling that shit is right on top of you and you better keep on your toes. Combat has good and bad point's firstly The AI of the human opponents is pretty good, they take cover, spot you , blow your face off all the usual stuff, but on the other hand you have the mutants AI which i have to say is actually quite ropey, for example I was just getting hidden in this alcove to reload all my weapons and charge my light source up again (you get a dynamo that you have to manually charge to keep your light working) when all of a sudden about 6 mutants just all ran at me into this small gap... The mutant AI is basic, it attacks you, thats it. Another mention has to go to the flying dragon things, these fuckers are a pain in the ass but are really predictable in how they attack you - you Dont spend much time fighting these guys but when you do it's not too enjoyable. It's much more fun and engaging to take on human AI its not stupid and does an impressive job of behaving in a way you would expect it to, for instance these idiots are peddling their cart up and down the track so I toss a pipe bomb right under their carriage and it blows them to shit, the carriage keeps rolling and comes to a stop and two of the enemies react to it and come looking for me. Some sections are dark enough that you can sneak about, and if you have bought or scavenged a silenced weapon you can use it to good effect,also there is the addition of throwing knifes but my experience with these varied sometimes i would hit the guy and it would just piss him off and all his buddies come and kicked the crap out of me, while other times it was a one hit kill ninja style. The graphics in my opinion are tip top, and there is a LOT of use of lighting effects in this game and sadly this can put quite a bit of strain on any ageing graphics card out there, my 8800GS started off on "high" settings with a high resolution, but in the end I had to turn the settings to normal and bring my resolution down a good few steps just to keep the game from lagging during combat. The game is a darkly lit affair and at first I thought "if its too dark it will just burn my head out" but in the end it keeps a great balance of lighting and dark and gets it spot on to create a dark oppressive mood. Sound effects are second to none, voice acting to a good standard, and that gasp as you suck on your mask for more air will have you feeling like your close to choking. Metro 2033 is a great game and it is one I will play again, if you're sat on the bench about this sucker and you cant make your mind up just do your self a favour and go bag your self some Russian gaming goodness. Pros: Great storey, good amount of unique memorabilia weapons such as "the bastard" gun for its overheating problem and shit accuracy, storey sucks you in, gritty set pieces and PLENTY of surprises on the way. Good scavenging, reasonably long single player campaign, and i love the feeling that every bullet you find is priceless. Cons; Mutant AI is piss poor and stupid and predictable, some set pieces or areas will see you die quite a few times before you figure it out or "get lucky." Overall Metro 2033 has done a great job of doing something a little different and focusing on single player only, a dying art of the FPS with recent games, it's russian roots are there for all to see hopefully another metro game is just around the corner and hopefully we wont have to wait too long. Hopefully next time round it will work on the mutants AI and rid the game of some repetitive sections that just kinda get in the way of the flow of the game. Bag it - play it - enjoy it. 8.5/10

Sadly you need to jump around like an idiot to get a woman's attention or do something that quickens the pulse. No amount of reasoning works. But im pretty sure you already know that.

I got plans for another site, epic lols all that stuff. thye took neo-cream but they cant have me

too sweet for me. I dont have much of a sweet tooth to be honest.

Member #4. Vin: Thats how I lost my site, not one email, not even on their official support forum nothing not one piece of news. I paid my money and no received it, at all. I sat with my thumb up my ass going "wtf?" then a guy with a bit more know how explained to me that my server had just upped and offed under new management. My site should still be living and breathing but it was not ment to be.

Payment stops site blows up. Around payment time if the payments are missed anything can happen. It all depends on if gamecop has the rights to the URL (address) for more than a year... If he gets his back up of the forum... etc.

Trackies and hoodies and some great trainers = comfy. Too bad we look like automatic purse snatchers with them on. The skate look is pretty casual to me i might go back to that for spring/summer.

One of my best movies of all time.

Im always clean, but one time i had a yellow stain on my black jumper for two days.

The old head shave, no messing about with barbers. I nearly did that 3 days ago my hair was all messed up and looked like crap. I only use a blob of wax to get that messy look on the top, which is normal pretty cool i got a call out hairdresser she always cuts my hair spot on. Spring is here in the UK infact i think its the first day of spring here, im off to see my old man piss him off then go to my sisters.

Man I get fed up of dressing sharp all the time, jeans, shoes, top blah blah, I love to put on old jeans and a shirt and put my trainers on that look seven years old, old clothes are the best. Any of you guys dress like a homeless crack head and enjoy it? or are you always sharp?

All hope is gone.

Ink, it wont let me do it because im outside the USA.

I saw 1emulation evolve, I've even been a moderator here. I think this place started out as just a basic yahoo group then evolved in to emulforums, I've seen this place shed its skin more times than I can remember. When I first hit this place up emulation was the buzz - neo-geo games!!! cmon thats just awesome. Super nintendo whose paying 60 quid a time now??? Rom links were all over the place, before myspace and facebook came along people used forums as a genuine place to share there every day stuff interest hobbies etc. I even saw the days of XXL-Enigma and the whole "who done it?" escapade with the deletion of posts. I was 21 when I joined here I am now 29 (and feeling it). Hell this place even spurned on my old site /neocream.com/neo-cream.com and that went through a lot of stuff and eventually evolved into a maddox style ass kick site. (Quite a good one so I was told) You should of seen this place when moderators where here more than regular members, you would get moderators deleting other mods posts and "taking charge" that's when I bailed out for a little while and had my moderator stuff taken from me. Im not saying older members deserve more respect or notice, hell I'm the only guy I know with a warning over my head. and that like Iceman said it is because of a troll I even have a warning. (as far as i can tell i got my warning for giving a shit) i have always found time to link to 1emulation and do my part. So emulation is dead, and we see a bunch of sites spring up with the same idea of "emulation site glory!" Mostly what I see now is young men finding a good hobbie and aiming for the tip of the whip! Fair play to them if they want to spend their money on a server and share their hobbie then who can stop them? Maybe its not emulation that's dead maybe its the forum that's a dying community/handle? With every tom dick and harry posting what they ate for breakfast and getting instant gratification on face-book/my-space are they really going to be inclined to search else place to have like minded conversations? Do noobs even know what a forum is? It's my personal opinion that game-cop wont give this place up or change it (although if he did change it what would happen? and what would he change it to?) gamecops-bar.com ? The only thing I would like to see is the old dark forum brought back and the FAS brought back in as a LOT of people used to enjoy that, if you care which i think obviously we do or we would not be posting here all we can really do is keep hitting this place up and hope some form of "management" returns and hopefully soon. Like agozer said he hasn't even got access to the control panel and even if he did what could he do he cant change stuff round without shell access. It would be healthy for game-cop to get in touch and post up his stuff or news about what he has been up to but as most of us know the Gamecop is a private type of guy while i will happily tell you about my personal life and the drugs i have taken he wont divulge that type of stuff. There is no fix for a "slow" forum - for some reason people like to be where lots of other people are (Ie arcade at home) to get bitch slapped, if we get a few members a year who are great guys then that's better than a thousand trolls or dicks joining.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0407887/ the departed, check it out when you can. Really turns your cogs - but when you look through the plot its actually quite basic with clever characters designed to make you think "up in the air" Di caprio as a bad ass made me lol - Old jacky boy plays a great roll.

Metro 2033, loving it!!!!! Mutants AI is stupid though... Will review it once done.

This is awesome just after I isntalled it and got it running my disk needed defragging - the game runs like shit! So i checked my drivers(up to date), im only running directx9 version as i know what my 8800gs will do if i threaten it with directx10!!! Might over clock the son of a bitch.

Just got metro 2033 - FUCKING STEAM!! SHITE! This game does not even have multiplayer, installing now, had a shitty headache for 3 hours... Had to buy the game from blockbuster as a few stores did not have the PC version in stock, i couldnt believe it when blockbuster actually had it in stock!! Dont know how long I will play for feel like shit.

Couldnt help but notice the "Gaylordius" user name mint.

My buddy said he was loosing money and he only has an average paid job.

Haaaaardddcore!

Any more reports on metro 2033? i can go pick this up today if I can be assed.
