*Possible spoiler alert*

?Sandperson look away now!


right, so that level. Am I the only one who thinks that the next time therenis either a Mumbai style atrocity or a columbine style massacre that a big fuss will be made about this game?

I guarantee with the latter they'll find a copy of it in their house (mind you I'm currently 2,500,000th in the online leaderboards, that doesn't include people who play offline, and that's after three days on the Market!!)

they won mention that everyone of those massacres was perpetrated by someone who had a fridge in their house though will they.


On the other hand, I can believe some bitter nihilistic teen that goes on to a shooting spree will probably play that scene with a little too much glee!

Alrighty, I've decided it's high time I got myself a decent PC once again (moving into a bigger place with actual room for a desktop helps too..), but it's been a few years since I built my last decent gaming PC and things have moved on somewhat.


In the past I've been an AMD and Nvidia man, but only because they seemed to be the best bang for buck at the time, it looks like the Intel i7 is a good bet now, but the graphics side of things is making my head hurt....what have people out there got, what do you reccomend?

Nvidia, ATI, 2 cheaper cards in crossfire/SLI, one more expensive card? Is Nvidias PhysX worth it or just a short lived gimmick?

Yep, Metroid Prime is exactly like that. Yeah I like those games, and have heard great things about this Bioshock.


My favourite games are the more RPG/Knights running round with swords / chatting to people in the villages, and that sory of shite.

Yeah Bioshock is loads of fun, my copy has been gathering dust since completing it tho so I'm happy to pass it on to someone else.


Hopefully will get some more time on Modern Warefare 2 in the new year when we move house, sharing the xbox with the only TV in the house is seriously impeding my game time at the moment.

      How oversubscribed are the local schools? Will they be able to take on students who are currently privately-educated?

      By lollol · Posted

      Southwark and Lambeth may have some spaces but this is not the case of other London boroughs nearby particularly at secondary level. Also this is not just a London issue. There are many regions throughout the UK that have no school places available (eg Kent due to new housing developments, rural areas, Surrey, Guildford, Edinburgh etc). Just because you feel it doesn’t affect you, does not mean it’s right.  You also need to consider the proportion of foreign students in many of the private schools in the area which distorts the impression that local people can pay private school fees and suck up an additional £4-5k per child and per year. And sadly, the psychological and emotional impact on children is not even being discussed.

      Education not taxation - please consider signing this petition!

      By lollol · Posted

      Step in a child’s shoes just for one moment and think what it would be like to have to move schools in the middle of the year away from your friends, teachers, community etc. due to a political stunt. I doubt the money will even go into education. The UK will be become the only European country to tax education. Primary schools have some capacity where I live but I have enquired and there are currently no places for secondary school where I live. Again, so easy to be smug and say we should have pre planned a potential outcome 5 years ago when you live in your £2-3m homes next to the best state schools in Dulwich (like Keir Starmer!)

      Birth rate collapses sounds a bit like Armageddon.  It's a mixture of a decline following a bulge, where many schools had to increase intake, and families moving out of the capital due to high cost of housing.  Now that is an irony, that only wealthy families, many who can afford private schooling, can afford to live in many parts of London.
