Call of Duty 6!  I love it.  I'm an idiot.

How about a nice pair of trousers for your Avatar?  Or perhaps a hat of solid gold.  With Microsoft on our side, we can achieve anything.

@ConfusedSanity:  That sounds like an Xbox RPG.  Achievement Unlocked: Zealot (50g)

As an aside, that little center notch on sliders and knobs is called a "detante."  French pronunciation. That's one of two things Iearned while studying Electronics in college. The other was, I shouldn't have done Electronics.  I learned a lot about Poker, though.

Let's wait for the year to end first.  By the way, 2009 now ends Q2 2010. Confirmed.

Spraying air into the vents is a bad idea, you should hit it again with a vacuum cleaner.  Spraying air in will send those clumps of dirt inside, onto boards and chips and stuff, potentially making your problem worse. If your vacuum cleaner has a brush attachment, shove it on and use that. Get those vents good and clean.  I wouldn't recommend opening your Playstation casing, I'd send it back ...

How about another single player campaign, about four chapters long, where Drake has to go about two blocks down the street to collect his dry cleaning.  Awesome.

...you don't need a fancy-ass camera to take good shots. I have a five year old Canon Ixus 500 with a tiny screen, and it's quite a versatile little gadget.  I'm not into Photoshop either, I'll just tinker with contrast or brightness to sharpen up. Composition is everything.  A good rule of thumb I heard once is if the shot's not good enough, you're not close enough.  Another good one ...

A tree by the house where I used to live, January '05. Shot with an Ixus 500, which is still the camera I use to this day.  Word.

My dad's in the TEEU.  They're a pretty old school union.  Green Isle's pizzas are pretty rough. Uncle Pete's by the Franciscan Well is where to go for a good one. I might go there now.

Pack a day.  I'm not proud.

Yeah I'm in EU territory.  Perhaps the EU have slapped them down for monopolising online PS3 content. Wouldn't put it past them..!  Trine will have to wait I guess.

Anyone else unable to access the Playstation Store?  It opens with the above error code, and then displays an empty store, no content found.  Just wondering. I want to buy Trine :(

Starfox 64... or Lylat Wars, as it was in Ireland. I finished it on my first play. I've always been sceptical of games reviews since. With the exception of this site, obviously.  Those cartridges were expensive. This didn't help with my Pre Milllenial Tension at the time.  I haven't bought a Nintendo product since, going on ten years later.

I work.  I do twelve hour shifts, and I save it for the next one.  Gets me through the four hour gap from breakfast to lunch.  God save the podcast!
