    2-0 to JC2 so far...
  4. La Celle Splintereux: Conviçion

    So I have enough moolah to buy one game, post exams. Should it be Splinter cell or Just cause 2?
  5. Here's the article: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8691238.stm I had never really thought about it before but it does pose some interesting questions.
  6. Help me help myself(Help my computer)

    ^^ Definitely not a joke. I once had a blazing row with a microsoft drone because I said I would be installing it on my son's computer too..NOT ALLOWED. I hung up and rang again and told them one...new key and happiness was had by all.
  7. What if renting/borrowing became extinct?

    This fo' shizzle.
  8. Post your face!

    WAIT WAIT WAIT?! You're a doctor?
  9. Battlethumbs: Idle Company

    Hey Brian, don't cry about nobody being your friend, I have been trying to befriend friends on BC2 for ages, the friends list is properly borked. It is no reflection on you I did get your friend request..ok'd it and then...NOTHING. Hopefully they will patch it asap because it's making organising games really difficult. So hang in there buddy, we never leave a man behind If you add me and the rest of us on Steam, we can usually coordinate via that and skype to make sure we get in the same server. I think i am Armchair(space)General on Skype, but I may be ac3144; I forget. Try that and we can work around it until the friends list is functional again. EDIT: Sorry, just read you posted your skype id, I have friended you on that now.

    Am I allowed to not like Clive Owen? Stick that in your edit pipe and smoke it McMurray
  11. Recently completed video games

    Bobbins. Superb! :tup::tup:(that's five bobbins to you)
  12. Movie/TV recommendations

    I liked the story of CoM but I couldn't enjoy as much as it deserved due to the aforementioned Owen effect. Edit: And sorry I always forget the damn multiquote thing
  13. Movie/TV recommendations

    Under siege with Steven Seagal. Premier action cheese. Navy Seals with Charlie Sheen is of similar ilk. Should be able to get both for about 50p
  14. Unnecessary Comical Picture Thread

    I have left.
  15. Idle Thumbs London meet?

    If only you'd visited Bristol
  16. Battlethumbs: Idle Company

    I already promised one person, you'll have to wait your turn Jammy
  17. Movie/TV recommendations

    I find Clive Owen to be a douche in whatever he's in. I have not watched Shoot em up for that reason. Am I alone in my appraisal of Mr Owen?
  18. Battlethumbs: Idle Company

    Bummer, I did notice you were gone but the trouble is that people leave and come back (due to server issues) that I sort of lose track who's in or out. It's a real shame you didn't like it, but perhaps you should judge it when we have a proper go at it. I mean that we should all get together in skype and then load up and decide on squads etc. The problem with BC2 as opposed to L4D2 is the lack of a lobby I find. There's no central hub for us to gather and decide en masse what we are going to play etc. Perhaps we should make a point of all turning on Skype and using that as our lobby prior to starting the game. That way, if any one is having problems we can all sort them, rather than a few of us being engrossed in the game and unintentionally ignoring those who are not having fun/not connected/(insert random BC2 Problem here). Squad deathmatch is great fun Shay, I promise to try and make it better for you the next time we play :tup: What do you think guys? Let's get some order to the BC2 game night.
  19. Recently completed video games

    I'm up for some spec-ops together Patski. I've played them all through to veteran but they are pretty good so would be up for doing them again...I just have to actually download the damn game
  20. Battlethumbs: Idle Company

    I agree 'twas good fun and probably the best way for the Thumbs to play together. There were quite a few empty servers last night, I'm sure we would be able to commandeer one quickly enough so it just had Thumbs in it. Although the way the friends list is being at the moment, I'm not so sure about that.
  21. Exams are shit. Discuss

    Congrats Squiddles :tup: Three weeks to go for me. MEGA Exam tomorrow is the beginning of the hell ride...
