b999 I remember the first time I played that aged about 15 and actually felt the sensation you get in your stomach when you drive fast over a hill (which I am now). Used to be addicted to Defender and Astroids. Now it's PS3. Anyone downloaded the GT5 demo? What do you think?

I know its 8 Months away but a London Gaming Convention is being held at Olympia (Grand hall) in June 2008. It's being modelled on the Leizpig event. I'll probably be running the VIP section so if anyone wants some free tickets let me know nearer the time.

Apparently the film "Heartbreak Kid," (Ben Stiller), called for a $20-$25 million opening but only managed $14 million in the U.S. and Canada (cost $60m to make) because audiences stayed home to play "Halo 3,". MP has the CPT suffered since you bought the game?

Xbox Live is great, barring that see if you can find a website that does the game in flash or somesuch first of all.

If you want to go the whole emulator route then it's usually worth checking on google groups for trustworthiness before installing anything.

I once installed something from opensource.org which you'd have thought would be trustwrothy and ended up with a nasty little bit of malware that took some eradicating. Learned my lesson though.


Here are a load, but like I say, do your research first.

Is Halo 3 any good? I get the impession with those first person shooters that you're either hooked for months trying to complete the game (I remember spending a couple of months playing Quake about 8 years ago) or you're in a room being shot to shit by evil 11 year olds. And I'm sure I couldn't get a moment's peace from the wife and child.

Coool.


Charlie, Halo3 is pretty good. The single player isn't too demanding, though it's can be so on the ludicrously hard setting. Also you can do it co-op which is nice.

Playing the online battles can be a curiously depressing experience as you're shot up by 11 year-olds, agreed.

      Highly Recommended Painter / Decorator - Temi

      By tombo83 · Posted

      I highly recommend Temi as a very skilled and reliable painter / decorator based in the East Dulwich & SE London area. She has completed many jobs for us over the past 10 years at our property on Overhill Road SE22 and also on Harlescott Road SE15, and we have always been thoroughly impressed with her work. We often leave her with keys and leave her to work her magic, fully confident that she's 100% trustworthy and will always do a fantastic job. If you're looking for a trustworthy local decorator who delivers exceptional work Temi is a great person to call. I'm not affiliated with her or her business in any way and actually found her through a recommendation on the ED forum over 10 years ago, i just like to recommend really good tradespeople who deserve a thank you. Temi - 07784 289024

      Up the reform

      ''He caused chaos  in this country with his put down of everything British and his many dismal words about the effects of Brexit on this country.'' What utter tosh. Carney had to mitigate the effects of Brexit caused by plastic patriots like Farage. For example, immediately after the 2016 Brexit vote the BoE had to intervene fiscally by dropping interest rates and increasing QE in order to prevent the economy from taking a big hit.  They were unable to prevent the £ from crashing at the time, and it has since been worked out that the effect of that alone caused a circa £900/year hit to each UK household, which equates to the UK @ £450m/week.   There's reams of data out there that shows the economic damage Brexit has caused to the UK. Here's one looking at business investment, admittedly not very sexy but kinda important if you want to achieve economic growth. It's clear to see that prior to 2016 we had reached parity with some of our main rivals, but since then we've flatlined. All that Brexit has achieved is to win the race to the bottom. There's a reason why Farage never brought up Brexit at the last election, he knows himself it hasn't delivered on any of the promises, quite the reverse in fact.  Labour, stupidly, by saying they can make Brexit work have in effect given Farage a Get Out of Jail Free card...
