    Oh yeah I should of mentioned that. All the keys are tiny screens that you can customize to whatever you want. Could be program specific layout, could be in different fonts. The macros can be shortcuts, tools, links, whatever. It's also nearly twice the price of my current PC.
  2. Oh sorry. I do hate when that happens. It's still overall a pretty good film, just a few things in the plot got to me. I don't much care for 'hard sci-fi' but some stuff just seemed like they asked us to throw a bit too much to the wind n not pay attention to.
  3. The planet Kirk n Spock are dumped on is close enough to see Vulcan get swallowed up that it should be a moon. But unless Enterprise was warping away in circles they took some time to get from escaping Vulcans collapse to dumping Kirk that theoretically should of put them lightyears away from the moon. Spock never goes into too much detail on the collapsing star which would of been nice to maybe pre-emptively sort out. Also the supernova was much more powerful than anything even remotely possible from a supernova. Also why if only one drop was needed was an entire vat of sun/planet destroying material put on spocks ship? Surely you'd only give him a few ml's and stored the rest on Vulcan? Still a good film, just a few things that bug me.
  4. Yeah the new one was pretty good and tastefully well done. Sure it was full of plot holes, but I liked the time travel aspect thing and how it ties it up as not quite a reboot but not quite a sequel. Also Simon Pegg
  5. I think that's just a place holder box art. But the old ones have just been a simple parchment look with the words on top in some sort of gold colour so could be the final one. It does look very nice mind. I'd expect it to get the logo added at some point.
  6. But octane we're not allowed six shooters here remember. Katanas at noon?

    If I had money to burn I would pick up one of these ASAP. Probably one of the sexiest keyboards out their. I can see it being the future of keyboards actually. Something that changes on the fly to suit the program. Similar to the philosophy behind touchscreen tablets n phones. And for an oggle at other angles n specs: http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/optimus/
  8. Yeah DICE really went and ran with it when they came up with a visual style for BC2. Also lol at MGS3 (That cover got put in the bad boxart thread)
  9. Oh while I'm kind of against the project $10 stuff I should maybe point out I don't buy (most of) my games used, and I don't trade in. So it doesn't affect me as such, but in principle you know. Also EpicBattleAxe have a podcast which has covered stuff about the VG industry getting away with stuff like this. Like if you had a CD that only comes with 12 tracks n to get the 13th you have to use an online code. No one does this kind of shit.
  10. Hah I was messing Their site recently got a refresh, he'd been asking on design ideas so I put in my 2 cents and that groovy design
  11. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEZa3dekjxs It's a new trailer for an old film on a new format.
  12. It'd be cool if he had a better web designer. I do like that he didn't put in clickable full-page adds n it's just an image.
  13. Wooh Octane! And that crappy VG blog of his....
  14. Oh n Sherlock. Disappointingly short. I'm proper getting into it and then it turns out only 3 episodes long. WTF? But there's quite a few of those. Not exactly 'made for TV films' but you'll have these either long one off dramas, or things that are only a couple episodes long to play over a holiday period or something.
  15. IT crowd is actually kinda short. Most births series tend to run for about 12-16 episodes. Inbetween we watch US shows. or Dave.
  16. The Japanese boxart also comes to Europe as well. Which I am pleased about. I'm a fan of stylishly minimalist covers. It's got a good chance of catching my eye. Don't need half the plot pasted across the front cover.
  17. Yeah in crowd is the more common phrase, for the 'it' stuff 'it girls' are the main ones mentioned. Not many it boys n it crowds.
  18. dressing gown n bathrobe are sort of the same. Though I'm sure a bathrobe is made of a more towel like material. As for crowd, nope. It's a play on 'it crowd' as in the social movers n shakers. Celebs n the like. it girl is the most common one used. While changing it to IT crowd cos they work in IT and are certianly not part of the 'it crowd'. Crowds are just groups of people. 'threes a crowd'
  19. I posted this a while back in Weird n Wonderful Web but worth posting here too.
  20. I'm not entirely sure, (and since I've got the game at launch and already activated the stuff I don't think I'd be able to boot up n notice) but seems you won't be able to get the stuff the cerberus pass could get you anymore and and updates. Just giving it a bit of a bump with the PS3 release coming out then shutting it off.
  21. I was actually replying to Hothearts theory. I guess it's you who stuck mine in a spoiler thing? Ill add the title on top Also isn't Legends the anime? Surely it's not massively canon?
  22. Not sure if this counts but: It's also pretty good because it's amazing (and slightly scary) how long it took for Stephen Fry to hammer it in.
