    Trying to decrypt that one myself. Either she drove over it in a steamroller or poured sugar into the tank.

    Knowing how atavan is after a few jars, I'm going to go with sugar in the tank.

    Maybe it's Miley Cyrus' Levin?
    Or perhaps it's Atavans car for when he is involved in the local Dundrum Drift King tournaments!
    Didn't see that track in NFS Underground!

    Oh yeah!

    Maybe he convinced himself that next door's Levin was his? Might explain the angry 'gowl'

    Thats it I'd say. There's no other possible explanation that fits with Atavan's life style

    My Toyota levin is going to the great scrapyard in the sky. This makes me immensely sad. All because if this ****ing gowl next door. She can get the ****ing boat as far as in concerned. The absolute bitch. I'm seriously fuming here.

    She must have used it in a ram raid against gamestop who have learned from Game to ramraid proof their shops and as we all know the Levin is no Micra....:pac:

    Damn straight brother, hard to ram raid properly anyway when you've just driven the previous 3 miles sideways while listening to the soundtrack to Fast & Furious....

    colour select at about 1.10 and racing at about 3.10

    You ****ing dancer! That's exactly it. Maybe 'looks homebrew' was harsh but it still looks plenty depressing. Even the name is generic



    Will still probably acquire it and play for hours

    That's because it is homebrew ;) Net Yaroze were playstation dev kits for people to try and makes games at home.

    This game sets a new level of ridiculous. Don't worry, the annoying American kid stops talking when the game starts. He's obviously too remorseful about single-handedly wiping out entire species of animals.

    WTF. I remember when Cabela's used to be a really realistic open world hunting simulation where you would spend hours tracking an animal then moving down wind from it and trying to make the perfect shot. Has gaming got so bad that even hunting games are CoD clones?

    An Activision logo is basically the gaming equivalent of "directed by Michael Bay" at this point.

    I'd say that there are times when Mr Bay is sitting on the toilet, pondering the universe and his contribution to it, preparing a wad of $100 notes to wipe himself, when he weeps at the artistically vacant career he has pursued, but I'd say he gets over it pretty quickly!

    Now that I've all my games properly listed & have an inventory system for them...I can see some embarrassingly glaring holes in my collection. I think what I'm gonna do from here on out rather than buying stuff randomly, is I'm just going to buy between three & fives games for a system, & them move onto the next system, do the same again, repeat rinse etc.

    Ah I see, the quantitative approach. I prefer the qualitative method.

    But there's so many good games I need to get, & some of my systems are seriously neglected of good games. So why not space it out a bit?

    Artistically vacant? I beg to differ. Just imagine what he could do with a scene on a loo. Sunset, slow motion grab for the paper and all the while the camera spinning 360 around our hero.

    I see, quite a dilemma. Ah your right in your feelings for the need of a bit of structure, otherwise you could end up with the same game on a few platforms like Bomberman 1 and 2 on Snes pal, bomberman 2 NTSC, Dynablaster, bomberman tournament, bomberman fight, bomberman Saturn, wario blast and bomberman 64. And also bidding on Bomberman 3 and bomberman 1 party pack in the last week.

    You're a WOW head? Ah man, I thought you had taste! :pac:

    Speaking of online games, anyone here playing World of Tanks? I started it over the weekend, it's really a lot of fun. Reminds me of Tokyo Wars :)
