    Same! it's one generation I really missed out on. I'd spent my early teens playing the hell out of the ps1, but by the time the ps2 came around I was more interested in Atavan-like pursuits :pac:

    The new Lego Dinosaur sets look very cool also. It's like Jurassic Park [1], only...with Lego :cool:

    A Lego Lord of the Rings video game would be awesome though.

    Telltale can f*ck right off though... can't stand their stuff.

    For me there will only ever be 2 Monkey Island games.

    Oops, meant Traveller's Tales!

    Oh well, both them and Telltale games are both guilty of reskinning the exact same formula ad nauseum, so the point still stands :p

    ...but isn't Minecraft based on Lego?

    This is something similar to googling 'Google'.

    Lego Dexter would be cool.

    A little Ice Truck Killer activity set would be wonderful.

    It's a bit of a chicken and an egg thing, isnt it?

    Did online buying push prices and costs up, or has prices going up made online buying more rampant?

    Oh and ask for Gamestop not knowing about the attachment, I'm not suprised at all to be honest. You'd think someone working in retail would be up to date on what they're selling. Apparantly that doesn't apply to game shops.

    If the chicken & the egg is the same as daylight robbery, then yeah, it's pretty much the same.

    Double the price man!

    [insert "ah but your forgetting about goverment axes here's a comparison chart & the actual currency conversion means it's not actually double the price" type comment here]

    I was trying to buy Rayman Origins off them yesterday as it's under €30 now. Lots of cases on display but not in stock when I got to the counter. Asked when they'd get back in stock and they couldn't tell me, it might come in tomorrow or the day after or the day after.

    I see Cult of Mac used this video I posted a few days ago of the Portlandia iPhone scene.
    I was wondering why it went from 700 hits to 24,000 overnight :rolleyes:
