Hah, a brilliant attack on the whole Creationism/Evolutionism argument. The thing I notice about America is it seems any politician can get away with anything just by saying that God supports my actions. "Teach our children Intelligent Design - It's what God wants. I know this because it's what I want, and I believe in God, so everything I say is right."

I might rewrite the Vercetti gang, because, um, well, gently caress SUBTLETY! I'M GOING TO PLUG MY FANFIC! Click the link in my sig. Oh, and while we're reminiscing (sp?), I have only one word to say about the beginning of the forums: Tondi. Let's see how many people know what that's about.

So pyro joins me in the ranks of people who used to be stupidly active but now only show up from time to time. Why the username change?

You see me? Where? I make about one post a month. See y'all in a month's time!

Or, how about this? Become competent at playing videogames! That way you don't have to use cheats! That way you don't have to worry about anything! Plus, achieving the elusive goal of 100% completion actually counts for something! It's win-win! EDIT: 500 posts! Plus over 1000 posts on the old forums! I need to get out more...

I'm gonna post mine as an attachment because I'm a lazy shit. Plus all the hi-res photos in this thread are breaking the page. The picture in the background is pretty boring, it's a holiday snap (that's my silhouette in the bottom left corner), but my desktop is cluttered with all kinds of crap that I really ought to organise into folders. I'll leave you to guess what all the things with wierd file names are. Edit: Stupid space-wasting PNG files. Attachment working now (I hope.) Edito Numero Dos: My desktop doesn't really look that shit. That's just poor GIF-compression. Them oral of this story? PNGs suck, and so do GIFs. Images suck.

I've heard of Without a Trace, they show it on UK tv but I've never watched it. TV sucks. There are basically only 2 shows which I watch regularly (Lost and 24) and a couple which I watch occasionally (Malcolm in the Middle, Futurama). Sky Plus rocks, though. You never have to watch adverts! This would be especially useful in the US where they have 4 advert breaks in one episode of Friends. I thought we had too many adverts here in England, but that's just frolicking ridiculous.

I posted this review on another site, and I figured I'd post it here too, because I'm a total attention whore and want my work to be read. Anyway, this is a review of 'Lost', a show which has only just started airing in England, but I think the series has already concluded across the Atlantic in the land of stupid 2-pin plugs that don't fit into the plug socket properly and always feel like they're about to fall out. How do you Yanks buy so much consumer electronics and put up with such an inferior plug design? What? Oh yeah, the review. Normally I'd rather stick my head into a pit of lava than watch anything on Channel 4 or 5, but watching their new show 'Lost' I was shocked to see that Channel 4 is finally showing something that doesn't suck. More than that - 'Lost' is frolicking awesome. I'd never have expected a channel so crap to show something so good. It's like if MTV started showing Led Zeppelin - only that's never going to happen, because MTV sucks, unless you like to watch shit like 'Cribs'. 'Ooh, she has such a nice house, I want to become a singer so I can live somewhere like that'. Newsflash: singing ability has nothing to do with becoming a singer. You just need good looks and breast implants. Anyway, back to the review: The first episode of Lost is triple-length, and in those first 3 hours, we see a plane crashing, angry chain smokers shooting polar bears, pregnant women getting kicked in the stomach, guys getting sucked into jet turbines, mangled bodies being found in treetops, and giant monsters tearing up forests. Do I need to say anything else? This show is clearly the best thing to hit TV since 24. As for the plot, the story goes like this: A plane crashes on a tropical island. The survivors try to live on this island while they wait for rescue, but it soon becomes very clear that something on this island is not right. This show rocks.

Hey, it's me. I could talk for hours about how stupid age ratings are, but i won't. The simpl etruth of the matter is that age ratings make minimal dfference in how accessable games are to children. My parents wouldn't let me buy SA after my idiot little brother went on a rampage in VC with my mum in the room, so I just bought if off a friend for £20. I play it and my paretns assume its VC. But anyway, read this article. It bascially sums up how stupid this whole affair is.

School where you board. Rich kids only.

Can't use my PS2 at boarding school.

Hi there, its me, CC17, back from the dead to post one topic, get what he's looking for, then not be heard from again for months. San Andreas=good game. My Laptop=good laptop. Put them together, gaming nirvana. One problem. The laptop's a Mac. Is SA out on mac, where can i get it if it is, if not is it planned to come out, etc., etc.,? P.S. Anyone who decides to be extremely witty and funny and post 'LOLZOR JUST GET A NEW LAPTOP' is a retard.

Thanks, appreciated. I'll PM it to you.

Or maybe have been on the forums since the times of tondi and have had over 1000 posts on the old forums and almost 500 on these?

I don't have one. Any of you kind souls willing to give me an invite?

Someone explain Gmail to me.

Hey, do you by any chance go to Cheltenham college? I know a bunch of people who go there. Oh, right yeah, people. I'd love to meet Cc17, I hear he's a really cool guy. But then if he doesn't show up I'd like to meet Chris, Spas, Biggy, Millermagic, Skyline, Pyro, Pagan, and... well, I'm sure there are more.

There's probably a mirror somewhere you can use. Either that or get a better internet connection.

Heh, I remember this show where a guy was going around some comic-book convention interviewing people. Presenter: Hi there, what's your name? Guy dressed up as Wolverine: (raising his claws and posing for the camera) Wolverine! Presenter: No, what's your real name? Wolverine: Er... Billy. Presenter: So, Billy, that's a nice costume. Wolverine: Yeah, these were the original Wolverine claws used by Hugh Jackman in the first X-Men film, one out of a set of ten. Presenter: Oh really? And do you have a girlfriend, Billy? Wolverine: Er... no. Presenter: Thought not. Bye! Oh, but that Brian guy who writes that awesome webcomic which makes all other webcomics look like shit (because 99.9999999% of all webcomics are complete turds), I'm of course talking about 8-Bit Theatre, will be at Megacon. Because he said so.

Hey, a supporter! Seriously, who wants to buy a movie they probably already own, for not much less than an actual DVD (don't quote me on that, I don't know how much a PSP movie is) only to watch it on a screen a few inches wide with much worse quality than if you got a decent version of the film? Well, I guess I'm just a Nintendo fan boy/convert/whatever. Plus I already have an mp3 player (ipod) radio, movie player, portable games machine, and I call it a laptop. And, just to stir up more a fuss, my laptop is a mac. Because mac are better than microsoft.

Wasn't that a city rumored to be hidden in GTA III? I remember reading about a "Carcer City". The whole carcer city rumour-thingy was started by brain dead twelve year old dumbasses who believed the rumours about the fully winged dodo. The Carcer city rumours were caused by confusion about Ghost Town and what it actually was. Anyway, why should R* re-use cities from their old games? And if they are, surely the next in line is London, not GTA2's city. Seeing as Carcer City is 'nearby' to Liberty (check the GTA3 radio), and the new york theme has already been done, I don't think that's a good idea. Why not make a fictional city based on London? Black cabs, red buses, cockney accents and bad weather. You know what I'm talking about. They could call it 'CraCville'.

'You should be a new white guy or black guy?' Does it matter whether your guy is white or black? Well, I suppose it does from a story point of view. You can already swim, and they're not gonna cut that out. Of course your guy will be a brand new character, the GTA games never re-use major characters. (That Phil guy is not a major character) Green is a cooler colour than blue. And colour is spelt with a 'u', the right English way. And no, using the words 'white' and 'black' in the same sentence is not a racist remark.

... You're an idiot.

Nothing new? Ahem? Touchscreen? Oh, and when I talk about watered down versions of existing games, I don't mean just the launch titles. I mean the kind of games that are likely to be released for each console over the course of time. And Mario DS isn't just a watered down version of Mario 64. Hell, you don't even play as Mario. Finally: you say that a PS2 game is better than a N64 one. Well, both have their fair share of turds, and their fair share of awesome games, but that kind of comparism - it just don't work. And I know that I'll never hear the end of it for saying this, but Ocarina of Time is better than San Andreas - those two games representing the finest their console has to offer. Y'know what? This argument is pointless, and I can't be bothered to carry on since it's clear you've all made up your minds about the PSP and no amount of debating is gonna change them. So, all I can say is - don't be put off Nintendo's games because of their childish graphics and shitty marketing. Not long ago, Nintendo was the undisputed champion of all things game. Go buy a gamecube and Metroid Prime 2. Hell, look in the right places and you can get them both for no more than £80 total. You won't be dissapointed.

Well, sounds like you're screwed. Steal a copy! Maybe not.
