  1. Yeah I heard nothing of this game, then Steam had a huge featured image for it and then everyone was like "Sleeping Dogs is ace". So what's it play like? Folks are saying GTA, so is it pretty much GTA in Hong Kong or something else to it?
  2. Yeah in context "legitimate rape" doesn't sound how you've interpreted it. Oh btw this has hit our news too.
  3. http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/37991/transport.html Thing is, on gamespress there's actually 6 screenshots... Oh this I think is also their first round of media to pop out since the initial trailer (but I may be mistaken)
  4. I'm gonna guess off the URL the SNES controller from Club Nintendo. As for me I picked up Driver San Francisco. I do like the occasional driving game and since I no longer have my pick of my dads titles I figured I may as well grab some of my own, and £1 isn't too bad.
  5. So I watched this the other day, yet to put my thoughts down but now responding to what you lot have written and such while posting my own thoughts. Oh and the film had me popping onto IMDB because dude on the bridge at end looked familiar. Turned out he's grown up Jesie from Taken (The Spielberg one not Liam Neeson one)
  6. My mum pulled a grey hair from my head today D:

      I've had grey hairs in my early teens... one or two is nothing.

      But if it worries you - shave your head! You'll never know until it gets really bad and hits your eyebrows etc.

      I'm thinning quite visibly on the top of my head. I'd love if one grey hair was all I had to worry about. :(

    So just a quick review of sorts (gonna do an official thing tomorrow when I'm on main PC and can take screenshots) "Community" tab up top is now split into two tabs. Community and Friends. Friends contains the old blotter and groups and profiles and such, and community has the newer stuff like Game Hubs, Workshop, and Greenlight. The blotter has been revamped so now is, as refrenced by Mastrix, "Steambook". It posts screenshots in-line, you can make status updates, like stuff, comment directly on things (not just directly on profiles or on screenshots, but on person X has game/achievements Y") It kinda makes it all a bit clunky though, lot lot lot more scrolling than it used to be. Groups are kinda swanky, now have "Discussion" tab, but given this place it's not really needed. Also has a kinda cover photo thing but it's just a collage of users avatars, hope in future that can be a photo you can upload and replace. Pretty much everything else on the client is still the same.
  8. Their screen is lifting off the device. That's usually things classed under "a problem". Especially on a brand new device (in both senses)
  9. But my point would be that just going off folks we know with Nexus 7s and of those which have faulty units, there's a fair proportion. Your twos points work on the assumption that folks only ever decry the issues and don't rave about their awesome products. It's the kind of talk that'd dismiss the 36%~ of RROD'ed xboxes. edit: there ya go.
  10. Just because not everyone is on message boards and such doesn't really negate the fact there's an issue with some Nexus 7 models. As I said, there's two folks just on this place alone sending their Nexus 7's back, and I think that only leaves two others on here. Yes not everyone comes out the woodwork to praise their devices, but when things fuck up then people will point out things are fucked up, hardly like folks would make it up.
  11. Well there's only a handful folks on here picked up the Nexus 7 and two have sent them back. And when folks are working great we do tend to rave. (I like brining up my sexy Note a fair bit for example)

    Alcohol

    Well that's an American drink. American "beer".
  13. Well you can either download them to your PC, then copy paste the files onto your phone, then on the phone open your file explorer app of choice (I use Solid Explorer), select the APK and the installer kicks in and poof the app is on your phone. Or grab the HIB app thing and sign in and download them straight to your phone through that. (I prefer the first just cos it means I've got em backed up safe n sound on my PC)
  14. Just the APKs, they have an app you can get that'll download the games you own to your phone. But they're not tied to your Play account if that's what you're wondering.
  15. http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcinternet/2012/08/digital_olympics_reach_stream_stats.html BBC have done a blog post with a ton of graphs and tables n all sorts giving a breakdown of their streaming coverage of the Olympics. Pretty decent.
  16. @Ethan: It's not Thursday yet
  17. New Android HIB out. Worth noting that a fair chunk of the games recommend or require a tablet. Which kinda sucks cos I'd have mainly got it for UpLink and that's one of the "Tablet only" ones. And best I can tell SpaceChem is the only one with a demo.
  18. Should be noted that A Town Called Panic started life as a series of shorts published by Aardman, so you can usually find them in bundles with other Aardman stuff. My fave of theirs is Angry Kid. And the making-ofs. Anywho, came back from Dark Knight Rises. Pretty good. Bane sounds like he's doing a bad impression of Sean Connery.
  19. Bonus of monopoly is being able to be told the rules, we had to read them and work them out. Parker Brothers weren't trying to make jokes in their rule set too.
  20. lovefilm have sent me two discs this time.. twisted metal n disgaea 4.

  22. The original. Had the option of Booty too.
  23. there's a gamescom listing floating about. Has HL3 listed on it. Cybbbeeerrrr......
