  1. I love the Metal Gear games, and have played them countless times, especially MGS1. I've never been a huge Spliter Cell fan though, so I can't really comment on it.I'm looking forwards to MGS4 so much now too:D
  2. The opening post confused me a little bit, If you are talking about emulating the GC and ps2 on the Xbox, then its not possible. You need a computer alot more powerful than what you are emulating, at this moment in time, the most powerful thing the Xbox can emulate is the N64, and it doesn't do that too well.
  3. The first 10 require you to log into some site thats not in English, and the last 5 aren't there:( Maybe you could host the files somewhere and post the links again? Anyways, you can get a load of games for the k750i/d750i/w800 HERE
  4. I hate people who never have any credit on there phone, and know that you (me) have a contract phone, so you always have credit, so they are asking every 2 minutes if they can use you phone, or send a quick text to someone.Then your bill comes, and half of the calls you didnt make. Grrr
  5. I get alot of headaches, so I know how you feel. I normally get them when I don't get enough sleep, then have a busy day in work, I find two paracetamol do the trick though. I hadn't had a really bad headache for ages, then last week in work, someone had a cold, and was coughing all over me, by friday I felt awful, and had the worst headache I've had in years. I came home, and took two really strong painkillers, went for a lay down, and woke up 4 hours later feeling fine :PAll in all, headaches suck though

    K750i

    Hi. Does anyone have the SE K750i phone? I've had one for a few months now, and its the best phone I have ever owned. It look so good, and can do so many things, and the camera on it is an amazing 2-mega-pixel one. Which takes some fab shots. I even used it to take my holiday pictures this year. It also looks pretty good too, heres a picture of mine. It comes with bluetooth, so adding things like games to it is very easy, and I even managed to get msn messenger running on it.
  7. I don't mind Christmas adverts really. The Coca~cola ones are good Holidays are coming...holidays are comming You know its nearlly Christmas when you hear that. The boots Christmas ad this year annoys me, though I don't know why.
  8. I really like the look of teh newest Invision boards, v2.1.2. Looks very nice indeed.I've never liked using vBullitin really, not sure why, though the forum I am active on switched it it a while back and its growing on me, slowly.
  9. I use last.fm you can see my profile here: http://www.last.fm/user/MikeAkehurst1 Maybe there could be a Xisto group
  10. Where I work, not to long ago, someone came in with Pokemon Ruby and an GBA emulator....pretty soon alot of people used to play it in the dinner hour, was good fun for a while :PI also got the Blue one ages ago, as I had a long flight and wanted soemthing to play, it did the job

    Abortion

    I think that it should be upto the women wether she allows something to grow inside her or not. If when a women has an abortion, the baby is old enough to have a chance of living then the doctors should do all they can to keep it alive, and let a family adopt it, but its still upto the women if she allows it to live and grow inside her or not.
  12. I've just spotted that you can get the basic hosting package, and once you get enough points, you can upgrade...heres me waiting till I have anough for the extra room. :sillymike:
  13. I can't stand people who type using text speak such as 'u r gr8' so much so, on msn if someone does it, I ask them not to, and if they carry on, I normally block them. Thankfully the forum I use online gives warnings to people who use it, which means its not normally used.As for speakign correctly, I come from a small town in the northwest, my grammer, like much of the area wouldn't be classed as good, though I dont' have a problem with this, its just how people pronounce words, an accent. :P
  14. Used to play WoW, got bored, playing City of Villains now, good fun:)
  15. Its a very good tip. Theres a program somewhere online that does it for you, can't find the link though, but its hardly tricky to do it yourself.
  16. Pro Evo...by a long, long long way. Fifa is so poor.
  17. I should be getting this game tomorrow. A guy at work says its awesome, I can't wait to play it:D
  18. Try updating all the drivers for your graphics/sound cards. I'd also try asking on the official Quake site, and check if they have a patch out for the game, this may fix the problem.Also, when playing the game, try not to have anything going on in the background, for example, msn chat. Hope that helps
  19. For anyone interested, I give your Frostta My fella on the game:D
  20. Where I live in the UK, there is the odd party for Halloween, though these are just another excuse to have a party and drink, rather than to celebrate anything. Little kids go around knocking on doors, but where I live, they ask for money rather than sweets.I hate halloween, and do my very best to avoid answering the door.
  21. Have you ran Ad-aware and spybot? Both are free on download.com
  22. Well, Its not out yet, so I can't write one up, I can however post one from gamerankings.com :-) Ever wondered what it would be like to be the bad guy in a game for once? To hatch evil schemes and to generally run amuck? Well- now you can! The City of Villains beta servers have switched to full-time availability, which can only mean one thing its finally here. Now that the NDA has been lifted I can tell you why this expanshalone () should be on your "must play" list. The costume creation revamp introduced in issue 4 of City of Heroes is partly present here, as you can fine tune body shape and so on with sliders, allowing for a truly unique character. The costume options are different enough from COH that your toon will look nothing like it did in that game. Spikes, digitigrade legs, skulls, barbed wire and all sorts of almost-fetish gear abound. The character archetypes are all-new, but at the same time familiar - a brute is kind of like a tank, but with the attack power as primary and the defence as secondary, for example. Most of the archetypes are similar to the ones found in COH but with powersets reversed, which should make for some interesting PvP One totally new archetype that is worth mentioning is the Master Mind. Cross a blaster with a pets-based controller and you are half way there - sitting your toon on a ledge whilst controlling a marauding band of robot henchmen is oddly satisfying. The level of control in City of Villains is far grater than that of the controller in Heroes - you can set stance (aggressive, defensive, passive) and also position your troops - up close will force them to melee, further away and they'll used ranged attacks. Gameplay is pretty much the same as it always was, with contacts and missions but, once you progress onto Port Oakes, your contact list will have a newspaper in it, which you can read to get missions and messages from your broker. Missions range from the usual - go kill all the whatevers in the building, to bank heists (superb!) and other criminal activities. The graphics and visual effects have taken another boost from CoH issue 5, but this may only be noticable on high end graphic cards. Rest assured - everything looks fabulous. The zones themselves are richly detailed with back alleys, shanty towns, seedy docks and the like. The first time I went to Port Oakes my jaw dropped - its so much more complex than, say, Independence Port. All of this comes at a cost, so you may need slightly higher system specs than you did for CoH, but not horribly so. Its worth mentioning the enhancement diversification, because is a HUGE subject for discussion on the CoH and CoV forums. Basically, Cryptic are making it so that sticking more than 3 of any type of enhancement is less worthwhile. You start to get less benefit for the 4th, 5th and 6th enhancements of the same type. This is partly to address a problem with a player basically HAVING to take the powerset that speeds up their endurance recharge rate (stamina) to be effective. A lot of people are very upset and shouting "DOOM! DOOM!" about this change, but I actually think it will make things more interesting. All in all, Im very impressed so far City of Villains is fun, theres consentual PvP and theres base construction, but the best bit is that if you already have City of Heroes, the monthly fee will also cover you for City of Villains.

  23. Where I work, our network computers all run Windows 2000, apart from one, which runs Linux.The other week, we got hit with a very nasty Virus, and after a few days trying to fix the problem, it had spread to every PC, apart from the Linux one. In the end it resulted in all 20 Windows PC's being formatted, with only the linux one remaining fine.Thats the main difference.
  24. Yeah...you can pay 3 months at a time, and i think that way it works out a little cheaper.
