Can't see Lara on Live yet....The missus will be blaming me for something if it doesn't show up soon.

[General Mannerheim]

I had an Xbox, didn't have time to play on it much as I work away. So when my brother got red ring of death he nicked mine when I was out and I haven’t seen it since, further to this he has had his fixed (or replaced) but still keeps mine at his digs whilst he’s working away....

I consider him an absolute tool as he is 30 years old and has a new born baby to look after yet all he seems interested in is achievements, graphics and killing shit whilst sitting on an oversized bean bag!

I myself prefer going out socialising, meeting new people and chasing girls!

im sure he considers you a total bellend too. and i would suspect going out socialising, meeting new people and chasing girls isnt really feasible very often considering his situation. He probably only plays on the xbox when he’s working away to take his mind off missing his young family, and so seldom uses the one at home for the same reason. But I would imagine he likes it to be there if perhaps his missus goes out and the baby is asleep, he can maybe have an hour on COD here and there? Nothing wrong with that imo. sounds like a sterling chap to me.

I'm guessing they'll just patch from the trial to the game, proper? Rather than a completely new package?

[FD]

That's the trial, if you wanna buy it you can do so from the trial yeah, it downloads an unlock key, about 2 seconds!

The co-op (online co-op that is) is being patched in in a few weeks and the first DLC is to be free on 360 for 30 days after release.

Cheers FD. DLing the trial now, and will buy from there.

On the FIFA 2011, customizable chants? You'll be able to put on "we are the one and only Wanderer." Grand.

Yup, and create the players they've missed (if they miss any)!

As for Limbo, a wonderful concept executed perfectly, but 1200 points is too much for a 3-4 hour game imho. It's a reccomendation, but at 800 points it'd have been a must buy.

If you are having to chase them, you are doing it wrong.

yeah kiss chase but i tie their laces together before hand!

[FD]

So...you rape them?

[Randy Watson]

Just a little Sexual Chololate!

Fable 3 , cannotfuckingwait!

Yay more broken promises from Molyneux.

Wonder if the co-op will actually work this time?

Hmmm. I think he sometimes tries too hard in some areas, but when you look back at some of the stuff he's produced over the years, plenty of it has been fairly innovative.


Populous, Dungeon Keeper, Black and White etc.

He's a bullshitter who believes his own hype, his TEAM has delivered good games, but his promises always fall flat.

This one has me a bit mystified FD. Populous delivered everything I expected of it, so did Dungeon Keeper, Black and White, Magic Carpet, Theme Park.

If his team has delivered good games, and he's their leader in chief, I'm not sure why you're making the distinction?

As it happens, I wasn't overly impressed with Fable II.

[FD]

You'd have to follow him more closely, he constantly makes claims about "Feature X will be in my game" and it never is, or it is but it's unfinished.

See the co-op in Fable 2 for example.

Ahhh ok, not followed him too closely in recent years (the Fable series for example).

Over the course of "gaming history", I think his record is pretty good - albeit, he may have occasionally bitten off more than he could chew..

[FD]

Agree to disagree?

Annnnyway!

PES2011 and FIFA11 looking very good right now, still think FIFA has the edge, but PES is much better than previous years.

Aye. Missus got to play the new Lara last night. Don't think she quite expected it to be like it was.

[FD]

Did she not like it? I loooooove it

I think "the jury's out".

I did say it looked more like the games I play rather than the ones she plays

I usually don't see her for a week on the release of a Tomb Raider game...
