  1. Reminds me of playing Football Manager a little that. I can get really irate playing that...
  2. I have a very poor MSN space that no one bothers to visit.
  3. How'd you go all that time without war? even when I try to give in to demands and be nice to my neighbours it degenerates into war eventually. I won the game once by building the UN and somehow being voted in but conquest seems the only way I ever conclusively finish a game.
  4. I won't be holding my breath for this one. Yes the pro evo games are the best arcadey style football games out there but there just isn't enough to them and without a big overhaul this won't be able to translate into a ood amnagement game. FIFA/TCM had the advantage in recent ones in that you could actually work you're way up from league two to the European cup on basic FIFA. Pro-evomanager will be a decent enough football game but there won't be enough in the basic management game to get really excited about. Without a lot more money being spent on developing that side of the game.
  5. Where's the bleedin' manual, can't figure out how to do saomething useful yet and can't find the f'ing thing in anything I downloaded...
  6. 4 shocking performances in a row (can't remember the game before Denmark) but we're now maybe only hours away from qualifying for the world cup and Sven'll be saved once again.
  7. Of course he does, he's playing for the result, of course he'll get lucky since if we win we've won it doesn't matter how bad we play and if we draw people will harp on about how unlucky we were after Becks was dismissed. Hier kommt das wunderbar óstereich!
  8. Civ3 is all about the wanton genocide and destruction of other cultures, so you could do a Bush and attack them for being "different" to you if you really wanted to use it.
  9. Two bookable offences in as many minutes? He should've gone and did although I suspected the referee may well bottle it but surprisingly didn't. We've not been playing well surprisingly (shock-horror) but I reckon we'll stick it out with sticking as many people behind the ball, expecially with Ledley on now.
  10. The Northern Ireland/Wales game was a cracker, top notch entertainment. Shame we're heading into an England snorefest now England should win 1/2 - 0 but you can never tell with this lot.
  11. I find the fact Kurt Warner seems to think every players fucking superman and throw the ball miles away from all my players. leading to a lot of balls ending up no where near his team mates very frustrating. Hate Precision passing and no longer play with it, can't figure out how that suddenly leads to more interceptions despite, angling it away from defenders, having players dead centre in my view and feet set with plenty of time to throw it.
  12. Rather then opening a new thread I'll just add to this one. Just bought Highest Hopes and it features the Floyd cover ("High Hopes"). Top quality stuff and it saves me having to buy the 4 albums I haven't been able to get yet since I've now got most of the best stuff Well worth spending out on since it was cheeper then any of the other Nightwish stuff too.
  13. That's the truth unfortunatly. We've played them together a couple of times this season and have created 0 chances and faced humiliation in the cup and were outclassed by a poor Blackburn side. Given the current spate of form I'd go with Mido and Keane myself since Defoes confidence is clearly rock bottom as Mido has shown he can be more influential then either of the other two if he's playing.

    I also can't believe a bunch of kids who clearly have loads of money aren't going to have internet access. Do you think they're all going to be exact clones who only visit one web site and have the inability to find others, or read magazines and newspapers. Yeah they might all have been bought up around classical music but you'll still discover other things.

    I still can't figure out if he's playing up to the cameras or not yet. It's typical reality tv though they've obviosly found the stuffiest and clueless kids they can and stuck them in this classroom. Someone said earlier it's about the stuff you'e brought up on, I was rought up on classical music and played piano. That doesn't mean that I'm not going to listen to other genres and stuff.
  16. I've never caught the verse properly it's something only heard in one corner of the park lane end. The last bit of the shalalalala bit is "Arsene Wenger sleeps with kids" but never caught the verse properly a reference to Campbell in there I think. Jenas still is pissing me off, he's just npot very good, every time he either goes backwards or gives the ball away onthe half way line. We're not playing well at the moment and the midfield is struggling because of this twat. Playing only one winger at a time doesn't help either though...
  17. Lucky for us there was a massive fuck up with them geting to the Download festival this year or we wouldn't have got Sunday night which was far superior to what they would've done half way down the bill at Donnington. I also noticed a large amount of professional looking video cameras around. Could be very interesting developments at a record/dvd store near you soon...
  18. The best bassist is probably Hookie from New Order, again it's not really metal but the guy plays bass like it's the lead guitar so is great for listening to to try and find ways of making them work for your band.
  19. Right, to cut a long story short I've been asked to put together a compilation of sickening romantic cheey pop songs. The cheesier the better. I'm after cringeworthy tracks like "My Heart Will Go On" the more painful the better!
  20. You never listened to Once? I went myself, fantatic gig and Tarja blew Lanky a kiss so he went home happy Far superior to when I saw them at the Astoria back in February. Although I had gone direct from Rammstein in Paris the previous night so that may seem why the previous gig was lacklustre.
  21. I don't see the point in any form of sharpened studs, especially in football since for over a hundred years regualr old studs have always done the job.
  22. Best sub 3 minute song: There are so many quick tracks I think are great. I guess I'll go with The Offspring - "All I want" one and a half minutes of high paced punk. Best plus 7 minute song: Nightwish - "Ghost Love Score" completely blows me away even now. Best use of guitars in a band: I really don't know there are so many great guitarists out there who compliment the bands so well I couldn't just name one. Best use of drums in a band: Slipknot, I think Joey's a fantastic drummer and it fits the style great. I'm just disapointed there are so many tracks that the music doesn't seem to fit properly. The drumming is always spot on though. Best Lyricist: Morrisey, simply fantastic lyrics almost all the time. Best Vocalist: Tarja Turunen - Nightwish, easy answer, simply incredible voice. Best Dark Band: Rammstein - incest, canibalism, great live show and an olympic swimmer Best Light Band: Bloodhound Gang some simply hilarious songs and videos, great to listen to when I'm feeling down as they always put a smile on my face. Best use of emotion: Alkaline Trio - An odd choice to some but some of their stuff hits me emotionally every time I hear it. Nice guys too (Y)
