  6. The Wii's Launch

    in 10 minutes, 12 noon uk time. My local paper, the Argus, has got the wrong end of the stick and has published a story about the wii costing £115, as announced yesterday. What is it with Argus / Argos today? hopefully some live blogging might occur here, as i will try and phone in to the conference

    Secret report: [wiki]Tim Henman[/wiki] is demonstrating Wii tennis!
  8. The Wii's Launch

    Today's conference will be presented by Iawata, our secret man on the floor confirms Hence the one day delay of the conference. Seeing as Nintendo claim they are making profit on Wii hardware sales a £149.99 tag is still possible I guess and hope. Seeing as they expect 4 million units to be shipped by the end of the year, everything is region free, and the conference is today not January, I'd say a December release is likely, the 1st is looking to be the date people have their bets on. come on Ninty, don't smash our hopes and dreams on the cobbled floor of after thought.
  9. The Wii's Launch

    The new ipods are $250, and £190 £149.99 would be lovely, but im expecting it to be more like £170. they need to be carefulsih though i guess, if it was more than £170 id import one, seeing as they are region free AND out first in the states, and cost a mere £133. +40% import tax though easily avoided …… ¬¬
  10. Got sent this today by a friend at work... not sure if it's old or not but it's kinda fun watch the replays.. insanity. http://www.toribash.com/ also on an unlreated note: http://www.b3tards.com/uploads/nintendobank.jpg
  11. Biker What from WHAT?!

    I remember it being totally shit, and then it disappeared. this is basically the least exciting new game ever made.
  12. Suicide inducing gameplays

    haha yeah the meat circus made me throw the controller at the wall, something i havent done dome since when i used to chuck my gameboy across the room whilst playing some awful fucking batman platormer. Hitman can also cause this kind of reaction, after the 500th time a tossing jogger rats you out to some bodyguards for some trivial reason... at least you can shoot that fucker in the head and chuck his body in a man hole... that makes you feel better
  13. Mother wins ban on violent porn

    BOOOOOOOOOORRRRIINNNNNNGGGGGGGGG
  14. Last week I went, along with Lawrence, to a talk by Will Wright as part of London Games Week. I tried to write notes for it, but ended up writing what has become an entirely different rant / article, that may see the light of day some time. Anyways, someone else less lazy than I has written up the notes on his talk, - the future of gaming - which focussed very heavily on the social relevance of games. check it out: http://func-auton.net/blog/?p=22

    Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure & Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey Rushmore Hackers ¬¬
  18. Bargain bin bounty

    to be fair, the NTSC-J, NTSC and PAL versions kind of define region protection as far as Playstation games go... You'd need to mod it or use a slidecard (no modding required.. except a ripping the drive bay front off). Modded Playstation 1s are probably ten a penny now on ebay though?
  19. Mother wins ban on violent porn

    She was my sister's music teacher from school, and lived just around the corner from me When they say she was kept in storage before being found, her body was literally kept in a lock box thing at a storage company... madness. but yeah, I agree, those sites aren;t to blame, maybe they even helped him to not go and kill people beccause he had the porn there. I think it's more of a case of... having somehting to do though, to keep you going because your daughter is dead. And it isnt exactly a bad thing that insane rape, killing and strangling porn is banned.
  20. £10 consoles alert!

    fuck all in Brighton... the website has this... http://www.boots.com/shop/product_details.jsp?productid=1065123&classificationid=1025901 £49.99 for gba micro.
  21. Bargain bin bounty

    it is in fact a PAL copy and it is the best game ever made for PS1... possibly with the exception of bishy bashy special. both are really hard to get hold of these days it seems.
  22. £10 consoles alert!

    I'm off to Boots ¬¬
  23. Bargain bin bounty

    games devaluation? they fear games devaluation? oh fuck off!! If only! Games are so over priced it's insane, especially in the UK. I always hear Americans comaplain that xbox 360 games are $60, well guess what? Here they are £50.. thats over $100 per game, would you pay that? , £4.99 for The Sims, a 4 or 5 year old title, is not exactly breaking the industry into pieces, in fact it's the opposite, it's the £40 for a new Game Cube, or any console title, that's destroying it. I want those games, but paying $80 for them when I can get them for $25 online from USA or Japan before they are out here isn't exactly a hard choice to make for me, especially when the import tax of 25% doesnt even bring it close to a full price game from the UK. I NEVER buy full price games from the UK... ever. When I visited America recently I bought 6 DS games for the price of 2 or 3 had I bought them here. so goo Woolworths go, even though you suck and cater for useless chavs etc, gooooooooooooooo. p.s as far as bargain bins go, i picked up Rez (ps2) and Vib Ribbon from bargain bins for less that £10 each.
  24. Insert Coin

    Well, they arent even retards... which means they have no excuse. it has ok editing and things, but it hurts also STOP DOING FALSE AMERICAN ACCENTS, IT SOUNDS FUCKING SHIT.
