    Agree and agree.

    We have both of those games at home and they're the only ones I play (I do like Zelda but never have the time, maybe over Thanksgiving).

    My bro just got a game called Fatal Frame, which he plays with the lights off, it looks terrifying.
    Yeah Zelda is quality too, once you get into it you quickly turns your evenings into a big black hole of Zelda thats very difficult to get out of! :)

    Would love to do a sky dive sometime much more appealing than a bungee jump imo. Although I did do that bungee ball thingy where they shoot you upwards in a round metal cage.

    I found this happening with Fable II on xbox360.

    When my dreams started being fully based around it i figured it was time to ease off!

    Compenent makes a big difference over SCART.

    Think it brings it up to 576p.

    Thanks I will get one of those cables.

    The reason I asked about Neils height is I have a mate who is about the same weight 16 stone and keeps fit,he is 6'0/6'1 and got told by a nurse last week that he was obese.The poor lad has not lived it down since,don't no why he told us I think he was still in shock.

    No need really, firstly it's all supposed to be a bit of a laugh. Secondly I know damn well I'm nowhere near "best poster", sure I voted for eZe^ myself. But comin in and givin us all grief is a bit much tbh. Bunch of little people tbh.

    I was the same, I gave it away, and got it back Yesterday, so hoping to get in to it over xmas.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    I was very suprised at how much I enjoyed MGS4. Some cut scenes get a bit boring, but there are a few absolutely epic ones. My current obsession, a little belatedly, is Fallout 3.

    Just finished fallout and now am buying Gears 2 on Friday. Just aswell too - makes it much easier to not go drinking.
