But, no one could guess from your username that you are actually a 58 year old truck driver from Kildare called Alan.
Damn, let the cat out of the bag.....

Alan aka Red

Surely all truck drivers like Gal Gun though

At the moment Aldi are selling slate place mats with little rubber feet. 2 mats and 2 coasters for 7.99.

I bought two packs. Why? Speaker isolation podiums! :pac:

Lashed two under each of my speakers and it's cancelled the reverb I was getting across the floor and through the house. Able to lash the volume right up now without annoying neighbours nearly as much.

So, what your saying is, they are still annoyed just only to 10, they don't go all the way to 11

Apparently they also cancel out the bad mouthing of Streets of Rage and Golden Axe. :pac:

€15. I enjoyed it alright, lots of developer stories but nothing I'd not read before.

"Grand Thieves & Tomb Raiders" is a great read if your interested in the UK game development scene for the 70's onwards.

Just watch the AGDQ speed run of a Super Metroid. It just confirms it in my mind as the greatest piece of game design ever.

But, you have supplied a youtube clip of a beloved album I used to own and listen to until it wore out, if only the HSE had more Dr's like Dre....

Aye, it's a quality album. I was only watching a documentary on NWA the other day so gave the chronic a re-listen after many years. I remember I got the chronic 2001 back in the day (my mam bought it for me, she was cool like that!) lots of fond memories listening to it on my discman!

I still don't get why they decided to make the DSi onwards region locked having always had region free handhelds. I'd very much doubt a legit region free handheld from nintendo in this generation of consoles.

I cannot stop watching this.

That moment where you log into Club Nintendo and it turns out you've 30 things on your account that you haven't claimed star points for :eek:

There´s some hope for a System Shock 2 remake. Because Mr. Smo (a Polycount forum user ) has started to remake the whole game with the help of CryEngine 3.

And apparently, the scene where Shodan appears in Mr.Smo´s trailer was inspired by artist called Jim Hatama.

And i sure hope that Mr.Smo will transform System Shock 2 into a 100% CryEngine 3 beast.

Trailer:
