*Possible spoiler alert*

?Sandperson look away now!


right, so that level. Am I the only one who thinks that the next time therenis either a Mumbai style atrocity or a columbine style massacre that a big fuss will be made about this game?

I guarantee with the latter they'll find a copy of it in their house (mind you I'm currently 2,500,000th in the online leaderboards, that doesn't include people who play offline, and that's after three days on the Market!!)

they won mention that everyone of those massacres was perpetrated by someone who had a fridge in their house though will they.


On the other hand, I can believe some bitter nihilistic teen that goes on to a shooting spree will probably play that scene with a little too much glee!

The only person who ever going to bother clicking on this link has probably already done so and laughed at the same hermione joke I did so I'm not sure why I am even bothering...


but just in case, it's a review of CoD VI by Zero Punctuation. And it's funny

Alrighty, I've decided it's high time I got myself a decent PC once again (moving into a bigger place with actual room for a desktop helps too..), but it's been a few years since I built my last decent gaming PC and things have moved on somewhat.


In the past I've been an AMD and Nvidia man, but only because they seemed to be the best bang for buck at the time, it looks like the Intel i7 is a good bet now, but the graphics side of things is making my head hurt....what have people out there got, what do you reccomend?

Nvidia, ATI, 2 cheaper cards in crossfire/SLI, one more expensive card? Is Nvidias PhysX worth it or just a short lived gimmick?

Hell no! Got an upgrade. New XBox with 250 GB drive, dual controllers & Modern Warfare 2 as a package deal. Buying all the bits separately would have been two thirds the cost of the package. Hence a well looked after XBox for sale, just in time for Christmas.

Yeah Bioshock is loads of fun, my copy has been gathering dust since completing it tho so I'm happy to pass it on to someone else.


Hopefully will get some more time on Modern Warefare 2 in the new year when we move house, sharing the xbox with the only TV in the house is seriously impeding my game time at the moment.

Ed - can you convince Mockney to play Bipshock some more until the big reveal at least


I agree with him that the gunplay is teh weakest aspect of the game and it flags a little before picking up for the reveal - but that moment is worth it alone...

      Interesting, because I am finding it next to impossible to get an appointment at Tessa Jowell.

      Yes, I live Colyton/Dovedale area and lots of swifts usually.  I'd love a swift nesting box too.

      Free swift nest box & installation in SE22

      By fishboy · Posted

      There's always a large flock(?) over the area of back gardens surrounded by Colyton / Dovedale / Marmora / Scutari, but no idea if / where there are any nesting boxes. We'd love to have one, and often have swifts zooming close by, checking out possible sites.

      I would have thought the cost of erecting X meters of metal barriers would be the same irrespective of location, plus given the issues with access now due to the "bunds", it would also be easier given the ample direct access the common provides? The reason I've heard from the organisers is that their footprint has been tailor made for that part of the park, so it's not possible to fit it anywhere else. Which is a ridiculous argument given that  they've already altered / extended it due to the space they've 'lost' from the "bunds". The reason I've heard from FOPR and others is that as the common is public land (or similar) it requires permission from the Home Secretary (or similar) due to ancient grazing rights or something. Oddly it doesn't seem to have affected the circus, the steam fair, the dog show etc etc etc Yes, the wide path where Parkrun starts & finishes will become a controlled crossing during the build, and completely closed off during the festival. Also, when I asked about the reason for the extended footprint onto the sports pitch, they said it was to replace lost space where the bunds are, which they used to store equipment. However, they were unable to explain where this storage area now was on the new plan... And when asked about the loss of the sports pitch due to the extension & access road, they said the council had assured them there were no matches booked for that period. But what about the kids, families, who play on them? No answer...
