    I'm tempted but I have my work Christmas party tomorrow night and then off to London on Saturday to see Alexisonfire's last ever gigs. Can't wait!

    I think I'll wait to see what the general opinion on it is before buying though, I have Max Payne 3/RE6/RE:ORC/Fallout New Vegas all sealed on my desk waiting to be played :o

    I'm quite jealous you're getting to see Alexisonfire, I'd have loved to have seen them at some point.

    They're fantastic live alright, real pity they're breaking up. The support band are also playing their last gigs and they're one of my favourites too so it'll be kinda cool to see them both for the last time.

    No idea how much to bring yet as I expect to hit the merch table pretty hard!

    Max Payne 3 is quite good imo. Tempted by the WiiU as the fantasy in my head is it has a touchscreen and you look at the tv too it could be like a DS home console hardware limitations and all. I'd sell everything I have bar my tubby dog if they made a Phoenix Wright game for it.

    My internet connection is very bad tonight, so I was unable to watch the trailer but do you mean Michael K. Williams (is that the guy's name?)? He's great, but the character was moreso!

    No. I can safely say that the last console I got while it was still the top of range was the NES.

    Just watched the dark knight rises. Enjoyed it but didn't know Jeremy Irons was in it. Bane was a pretty lame villain I thought.

    Lads, quick one for ya.

    I ordered the WWE Encyclopedia last week from Amazon, for some reason they sent ( and charged me for ) two.

    If anyone wants to buy it off me I'll sell it for face value of 25 euro - only thing is collection is probably best as it weighs a ton to post.

    PM if you want it, or else my mam will be getting a strange xmas pressie.

    I liked most of the new characters but at times it felt a bit like Batman/B.Wayne was playing 2nd fiddle. Some of a it felt a bit What? Too eg like the new batmobile by way of Deus Ex. The fighting between Batman and Bane was weird like 2 guys fighting with their feet in concrete. Bane's voice then I thought my PS3 broke.

    When does Breaking Bad get good? Finished the first season and it's pretty slow so far.

    Will start season 2 tonight.

    Yep. It kicks into high gear in Season 4 - absolutely sublime writing. I'm not a drama fan, and although it's good, I wasn't blown away by S1-3, but wow, it really is some of the best television I've ever seen.

    That rugby group is just asking for a second place finish and a QF with the All Blacks. Wales have it all to do.

    No better time than the World Cup to finally beat the All Blacks if that happens.

    If they play as bad as they did last Saturday we'd kick the holes of them. Lets just hope we spend the next 18 months to 2 years bleeding in new talent.
    Bit off topic but i'm just wondering are you a Juve fan Diabhal?

    Not really a fan of any soccer team really these days. I'm one of those guys that believes you support where you're from. I loved ADP though.

    I guess I'm a neutral.

    Big Totti mark myself. Same with Zanetti, Nedved and a bit further back Batistuta.
    I have season 1 of Breaking bad atop my Xbox waiting to be watched.

    Yeah it's not exactly gripping edge of your seat stuff such as Lost or 24 or Prison Break were from pretty much the beginning, but with a 9.4 rating on imdb i'm gonna keep watching for sure.
