I agree it's a retarded policy.

Works for me.

I'd say Gravity Rush too. But I did enjoy Rayman. Apart from the last... boss... thing.

The dude abides.

I'm on board with Ethan's interpretation of time travel in the movie.

Looper, great film with a lot of depth.

Muse: The 2nd Law. Picked it up today on a supposedly obsolete optical disc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPeufV4xCGU

I bought a little known title called Mass Effect. It's quite good.

http://www.bbc.co.uk...d-asia-19780692 I'll never tell anyone what they can or can't believe in, but seriously, it's just a fucking book. Burning books is not cool, but looting and burning villages is a teensy bit worse in my opinion. These people really need to get some perspective. Allah, Jehovah et al are all reportedly quite capable of doing their own smiting if they feel the need. Link works fine for me. Trying a tiny URL just in case: http://tinyurl.com/8scopr9 Maybe it's a BBC thing?

Coincidence?

Ginja'd!

I was wondering about the ginger prejudice too. I hear the phrase "red-hedded step child" from Americans, and the gingers have no souls thing was done by South Park. Maybe it's just a very recent development. Video related:

Haha. WOW! Dudes, it's little pictures of smiley faces. Dean was only using it as an example of how Apple exclusive features can have a negative impact (albeit tiny) on people who are not part of the Apple ecosystem. Yes there are worse examples. And yes, I'm sure Android, WP7, BB, Symbian, etc are not entirely immune to this. It was just a quick example that he had stumbled across at the time.

It is a nitpick I agree. But it's still a peeve when going through twitter to get a tweet from a friend saying "Such a bad day. Really need a ???" Need a what? Hug? Pint of lager? Coffee? Bath? Chat?

Haha. I always approve of the use of pleb.

It's the sir bit that really niggles though. The whole gentlemanly, cap-doffery bs.

"Good sir" I hate when people say that. It's patronising, snobbish, elitist and usually used by people who don't have the balls to tell someone that they think is a dick, "I think you are a dick."

For games I have dubs and subs in English otherwise I tend to miss stuff. For foreign language films, if I'm watching one on my own, I'll definitely go with subs. My friends hate subs though so if I'm watching with them, or if I've got the film on in the background while I'm doing other stuff, like playing on my vita or whatever, then I'll go with the dub. Studio Ghibli dubs are usually pretty good imho.

I've actually taken to turning my phone off when out with friends. It removes the temptation to check and see if I have any new texts, tweets, emails etc.

I'd be demanding my 17 minutes back at the very least otherwise I would upgrade my condition to "somewhat disgruntled".

Just watched the Muhammed Movie Trailer thing. My word that is an awful thing. I want to riot now.

Wasn't trying to suggest underhandedness. From what I can see, most of MS third party exclusives are either timed or they are the smaller indie titles, same with PlayStation. Generally, I've noted a trend for perceived platform exclusives (e.g. Final Fantasy), to go multiplatform, taking an established IP to a broader audience. This seems to be going in the opposite direction. Taking established property and then confining it to a single platform.

I suppose he is thinking that the fire will consume the oxygen, suffocating you. Of course, there's the masks that drop down to provide breathable air (or anaesthetic if you believe the tin-foil-hatters).
