    afaik you can't TM a number. Also 1988 would be a PITA to search for and 281..blah blah a pain to remember.
  2. But they're free to post their message other places. Just not as adverts on the public buses.
  3. Joseph Gordon-Levitt n Bruce Willis star as..the same man. tbh I'm not sure on how it all works. Obviously if it was the other way around it creates a grandfather paradox, but here it creates a predestination paradox (since his older self knows everything his younger self does to him, therefore his older self can be two steps ahead). Of course it doesn't matter. All that matters is it's a time travel film with Gordon-levitt n Willis in it.

  5. Hmm, nice tip. May try that out.
  6. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2012/apr/12/anti-gay-adverts-boris-johnson Boris has stepped in. For the non-brits: He's the London Mayor, the guy that popped up at the end of the Beijing Olympics to declare Ping-pong is coming home.
  7. http://bldgblog.blog...tar-garden.html Laying the groundwork at ITER. Shiny shiny fusion power. The power of the sun in the palm of my hand. In other news Mainland Europe is building a pretty hefty collection of potential doomsday weapons of late. (They're making one of these types )
  8. Friend walks in: "Oh you're nearly dead against this Dragon huh? QUICK SAVE!!" Also is there at all any mention from devs on why/how it is that only Kinect can do voice commands? Windows has had voice control built into the OS since Vista, so it's not like a "oh only Xbox has voice software in it" (in fact voice control was one of the first mods iirc). Is there some green passing around?
  9. What is it? It's a disc of charred something. What was it? a frozen chicken fillet. What happened to it? Well what was meant to happen to it was I'd defrost it. What seems to have happened to it is my microwave temporarily enabled it's teleporter setting and swapped my chicken fillet for some acrid gloop from Traal. I'd at least understand if it was charred lump but still chicken fillet shape, but as best I can tell it actually melted the chicken. As if it was plastic left on a hob. My understanding of food stuffs doesn't include the ability to comprehend why chicken would melt.
  10. Not this (I was going to make a stir-fry)
  11. MS carry on closing studios down or telling studios they can't do certain things with their games when they come out on Xbox. Thus studios don't exactly deal with them that much. It's end of generation too, which means PC starts to really start to make consoles look old n awkward, and devs start to hold back on newer bigger games in the hopes of knocking them out for next gen.
  12. http://www.guardian....i-gay-ads-buses They're using Stonewalls ad slogan and style too :/ The problem of course will be it's an advert, which comes with some fairly strict rules on what you can and cannot advertise.

    Zero Ecks Ten See. I'd say the name being quirky makes it memorable. Though for the most part just being notches game is enough to remember the game by.
  15. http://screenrant.com/dark-knight-rises-catwoman-images-kofi-164297/ Here's where it's from, as it explains the "ears" are the lenses of her goggles folded up. It doesn't look so clear in the full body image mind, but is a bit more so if you click on the mag cover.
  16. See there's a problem, some do, some don't. Even with new games there's a chance the code won't work. So why not just have some blanket "not all games come with advertised DLC" and be done with it? (I've a feeling that'd cause even more issues though, since it'd be like putting out bags of crisps and saying "some might not be the advertised 30grams, sowwy".)
  17. Well disable Operas content blocker then?
  18. But there's only a small amount of Water Tribe left though. The search wouldn't take that long. Also they have to start the search for the avatar again when he escapes anyway. Much easier to hunt down a baby than a flying kid that's zigzagging all over the place and building up many allies and resistances along the way.
  19. So watching Avatar, finished Book of Water this morning. Loving General Iroh n all their side of things. Question: 1. Why can't the Avatar teach himself? He picks things up pretty quick by just being shown stuff in action, and he's now seen all the elements and plenty of moves used in them to have surely picked up a fair bit. 2. Why do the firebenders insist on capturing and chaining up Aang, despite his inevitable and continuously escapes, when they could just kill him? 3. Did anyone making this realise how fucking hilarious it is when they're telling the "benders" to do stuff? It's not so bad when it's the full title, i.e "fire-bender" "water-bender" etc, but "bender" on its own is kinda funny. "Wow I didn't realise Aang was such a powerful bender" The bit where Sokka just threw an engine into a gas seem was a bit :/ Also the Water nation jsut letting their town, made of ice and water, be torn apart was also kidna silly too when they'd show they can control it all pretty damn well. Just use water bending to fill in any holes again.
  20. And now to bring this thread back on topic with the overall forum:
  21. What are they meant to do? Just put everything with project $10/online pass (i.e a large chunk of games these days) in boxes like this? Yeah their prices on used games sucks, but they don't make the box covers that claim it comes with $15 of DLC. They could make the games $65 used if they wanted, I'm pretty sure the price point isn't the issue the lawsuit had with them, it was displaying boxes that claimed the games came with DLC, despite the fact they don't.
  22. http://arstechnica.c...rnia-online.ars Gamestop loses lawsuit with regards to games advertised as coming with free DLC. Which is a bit of a bitch, because Gamestop aren't the one advertising the free $15 DLC included, the publisher that made and printed the game covers are the ones doing that: http://www.covergala...l-cover-dao.jpg
  23. http://www.examiner.com/video-game-news-in-national/1-300-premium-edition-revealed-for-resident-evil-6-japan $1,300 premium edition. Comes with the game, four tablet covers(as in iPad covers or something else, not sure on that, I feel there's a dodgy translation here) and a leather jacket as worn by Leon in game.

    I wasn't much up for checking the maths, it was just the first image/post I found explaining the name as I heard it explained the other week.
