Obi Chris Kenobi

DLC 1 confirmed in the next week or 2. 2nd DLC in February with the 3rd in March... OUCH!

Whats the game actually like?

UK News: Retailers Gone: Woolworths - 100 years of history on the High Street. Zavvi - Formally Virgin Retail Ltd, Sir Richard Branson's store, the thing that earned him his billions. The Officers Club Whittard of Chelsea Probably more to come, though the big Supermarket chains are reporting strong financial quarters. Is this the start of Wallmart type places taking over the UK?

Is this the start of Mellow's transformation into a Dr. Lector figure that goes sysmatically through the POTY brackets eating everyone who voted against him?

Dandy - I appreciate Venk's work on the WWE folder, however I hardly see him outside of there. It makes me worry for his sanity. Occassionally I see him venture into the NHB, but over all he's a WWE Folder guy. That's cool, its his baby and all. However, Dandy is an over all boarder, and has some good Sports knowledge that he shares without being egotistical about it. EHME - If he didn't change his name so often, I'd probably be able to remember his posts past the last few months. However, his latest incarnation and posts have been ok. Yet, for as little as I can truly remember of EHME's posts (due to constant name changing) I can't even picture who Incandenza might be to even find one of their posts. Cheech - Keeps things simple and ever going, think I've probably seen a post of his in every part of the board, so he's 'boarding hard'. Slayer - Ortonsault is taking this way too seriously and his self pimping posts smell of someone who's desperate. No one in their right mind should be desperate to win TSM Poster of the Year... should they? Slayer has some killer AVs in rotation, and keeps the balance between shit eating posts, humor, musical insight and good general posting. Kinetic - Sticking with my first round pick into the second round. Snuffbox seems to have been flying under the radar last year, as while I don't recognize him, I kind of remember some of the posts he made looking back at them - and he's been a member since 02. Matt Young - Its a hard choice to make, both guys are pretty regulars down in the Computer Games section and the Movie Section, which are probably the two sections of the board I go to the most. I've got to go with Matt Young on this one again though, nothing against CanadianChris though just a bad match up. Matt is a good guy, posts some funny shit and is happy to let people take the piss out of him (at least from what I've seen) which isn't a bad thing. Again, Matt does have that deep seated 'I'm going to rape your Daughter voice', which you can't vote against... you know, incase he rapes your Daughter. Seriously though, the guy is a friendly dude, always wishing you and your team well if you talk to him on xboxlive or whatever. I'll try and get that English Football thread going for the Rules of Fifa soon. Bored - I'm glad he got through the 2nd round, as to be honest the guy is a great Boarder. Owe him a lot for getting me into College Football due to his College Football thread. The guy is one of the main aspects the Sports Folder does so well. Mellow seems a good guy, but I just haven't really paid that much attention to what he's posted. That's not his fault, that's my own. I'll try and make an effort this year, I swear! Fazzle - I nominated the guy, and even though I voted against him last round (he was up against Andrew TS) I'll vote for him this one. He pops up with some good posts and doesn't seem to rock the boat, which is something of a rare thing at times. Besides, he did have that LA Parka sig for a good few months, which cracked me up. KOAB - I voted for him the 1st round with a real shit reason for giving him a vote, but the truth is; he's a funny guy and does seem to be everywhere across the board. Usually has the best pictures posted up on 'Pictures I like'. Smues - Its a real tough choice, Smues, a mod, against MattDotCom probably best newcomer... oh wait he's not a newcomer, he's been here since 2002. Only just really noticed the guy though, but that isn't saying much as people have probably only just noticed me too. I was going to go with MattDotCom, seems a good guy but Smues is Smues and doesn't have some strange Vampire thing AV. Saying that though, I have enjoyed MattDotCom's WWE posts, he does seem to kinda give a shit without shitting on the whole thing. King Kamala - Easy one for me. He's one of the reasons, along with Venk, that the WWE folder has started to improve. He's also tried various ways to get the general wrestling folder back on track. Seems like a good guy, that enjoys his wrestling and won't have anyone take it away from him. AoO - Good boarder that seems to be in most of the folders around the board and offers some good input if people ask for it. Al Keiper is a good guy, but I think I've only ever really seen him post in the Sports folder, and then maybe twice a year in the WWE folder. His posts are good, but my vote goes with AoO just since I've generally seen more of him around the whole of the board and enjoyed his posts more. S.J. Kreese - Another tough one as I like both guys. While some people will probably take it as a negative, as it was ANOTHER FUCKING DRAFT THREAD ARRRGH, I enjoyed the Actors Draft. Treble 909 - Another guy that gets about the board and usually keeps things going. Minus points for being a Liverpool supporter, but plus points for being an American that enjoys Football, without making it seem quirky. Lord of the Curry - Ergh real tough one, VX and Lord of the Curry are both good guys, and good posters. If I'm honest this one was a coin flip.

Couldn't care less about Cricket like. Full of student yuppies that sit around pissed all day.

Goodluck, Thoth!

I knew Super Mario Bro was bundled to start with, but it was available on its own too. Wii Sports, at the least in the UK, is only available with the Wii. If its sold that many copies in Japan alone as a stand alone game, then that's pretty mind blowing. Makes you wonder why Nintendo aren't starting to push and sell it in the UK and the rest of the world too.

Hmm, but its not something you can actually buy on its own - at least in the UK. Its bundled with the Wii and is part of the Wii SKU. I'm not sure you could class it as a game that has been sold on its own SKU.

Holy shit, you guys did it. Nice work Derby!

I was going to say your negative attitude will concede you a goal, then Derby went and scored that screamer.

If they lose OOOOO WHAT A GOAL!

Ah, not to worry my friend, its on the Sky Sports. Aye, canny start, hopefully that wasn't all the ammo in your barrel though.

Good luck Derby and TheFranchise. The whole of England will be supporting you tonight. Fuck the Mancs!

Thanks AoO, will definatly try to find and stock up on those herb/spices next time I'm out and about and ready to make a curry. Bit late to try it today, since I'll have to start cooking it in a few hours. The missus isn't a huge spicy food fan, but I'll try and see how far I can push her taste buds without causing her to stop eating the food.

Sure you guys probably already knew about this, but I've only just found out so thought I'd share it with the rest of you. http://ps3.qj.net/Hands-on-Use-your-SIXAXI...pg/49/aid/75550 The reason I went looking for a way to get it to work as I've found a copy of Disgaea to try out

Tron Sequal? Wtf... http://uk.news.yahoo.com/22/20090107/ten-u...on-5fdf947.html

The film that George Lucas wishes he had never made?! Awesome I remember watching it none stop as a kid, with almost all the jokes flying over my head. I liked it as it had a big muppet like Duck and I loved the Muppets. I watched it the other day and I was pretty surprised at how adult the whole movie is. More surprised that my Nana used to let me watch as much as I did - ah bless that woman. So, what's on the Special Edition? Removed all the mild swearing? Replaced the guns with walkie talkies? Howard the Duck is now CGI?

I wonder if this will cause any call out threads in No Holds Barred.

Hmm that's odd, especially in a fucking survival game where you'd naturally want to run the fuck away. Left 4 Dead manages to pull it off. Obviously, its not on the same level as RE5, but still, give us some blind fire option! Nah, that makes sense money wise. REzero was half decent from what I remember too, that was Gamecube only.

I know its not on the same level, but I remember the first time my mate said 'Oh here, Chris, eat this Jalapeño, they're dead sweet.' So I did, and tried to Man up as all the spit and saliva in my mouth dried up faster then the Dead Sea. I think my mate takes pleasure in knowing it was him that destroyed my trust in the human race. Him and that damn Jalapeño Pepper. It didn't however, affect my liking for Jalapeño Peppers in the right situation. They can add that little extra pinch that some things can't.

You're not the only one. Were they going to redo the whole series at some point, or was it only planned for the first one to get a touch up on the Gamecube?

Just tried to play Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2 on the PS2, and I just can't. They're slow and juttery, but they haven't changed at all since the first time I played them over 10 years ago. Its just that, well, they haven't aged well. I think I would have been able to manage it if they hadn't revamped them slightly on the Gamecube, and then further still for Resident Evil 4.

You mean keep her from feeling that? Nice catch, that could have been seen as a Freudian slip. Which she'll pick up on since she's a damn Psychology Graduate.

haha 1-0 Burnley, take that Harry Redknapper! EDIT: 1-1 - good header though EDIT: 4-1 Spurs... nice turn around. But still, up yours Harry Redknapper. I hope Jamie Redknapper isn't going to be Sky Sports for the whole of this year. He's a right tit.
