notlimahc, loq

Y'know, I've been saying that Thierry Henry is a cheating cunt for some years now, but that's just shocking.

Still, thank goodness we don't have video refs, eh?

Everybody knows Mario Kart cheats.
But the cheatiest level of all was N64 Bowser Castle.
And that championship was only one I hadn't won on mirror mode yet.
Every time it did a combination of blue shelling at points where I got into the fire
Losing 7 or 8 places
But this time I prevailed.

I jumped up.
And the cord between the Wiimote and the Nunchuck swept above my Lamp.
This was the results.

Videogames are bad for you....r house.

Recently I trawled back in time within the WoS universe and re-read Stu's "Xbox 360 hands-on" thread, and enjoyed reading the Kameo review again. I couldn't help but notice how it was obvious he thought Rare had gone down the shitter post-Banjo-Kazooie, but I don't think he did any reviews of DK64 and Conker, which would've been interesting to read methinks. I played DK64 to death when I originally got it and found no real problems with it - I particularly liked the hidden extras such as DK and Jetpac and the effort you went through to unlock those. As a teenager, I thought nothing of the opening theme tune. :-\

I never played Conker originally but from what I've seen on YouTube, it looks like a more elaborately detailed version of DK64 (albeit with toilet adult humour) and full-on speech throughout on an N64 cartridge. Goes into intricate detail on almost everything, particularly the scene you get when you lose your first life. The only bad thing I could see out of it straight away was possibly that it might irritate those who just want the game to get on with things and not faff about with certain aspects for ages.


So Stu, do you have the time these days to tell us your stories regarding these two titles?

9/10 eg multiplayer feast. I've got it ordered with a nice discount

I rather enjoyed this:

Small Worlds

After many failed attempts at locating a useful offline London map app for my iPod - particularly one that lets me add my own bookmarks - I've given up. Are there any giant map JPGs anywhere that could be manually edited in Paint Shop and then just stuck on the iPod as a JPG? You'd think someone somewhere would have just digitised the entire A-Z or Google Map into one enormous JPG.

I can't decide whether this is cool, insane, akin to blasphamy, or all three.

http://www.develop-online.net/news/33233/40-of-studios-unaffected-by-piracy-study-claims

"A new survey of UK studios by industry body Tiga reveals that 40 per cent of developers don’t feel that piracy is currently affecting their business.

The study went on to suggest that 60 per cent of surveyed developers view the actual threat of piracy to their business as low, with 20 per cent marking the threat as medium and only 10 per cent regarding piracy as a big threat.

And yet, a vast majority (90%) claimed that piracy is an increasing problem for their businesses going forward."

I'm sure this isn't exactly surprising but nice to have it said. I'd love to know who the 10% were, mind

So I got a 360 the other week, so far picked up GTA4, Brutal Legend and some Rock Band stuff. What else is worth getting? I mostly bought it for Brutal Legend and Rock Band so...

And what's good on the Marketplace? I picked up Ticket To Ride, Catan and that new Panzer General board game already, anyone here play online and maybe fancy a game sometime. Once I get done with Dragon Age. On the PC.
