What's your beef? Webber is the man.markot said:
Yeah, most people at least don't mind him, but every so often there are people who really don't like him at all.roosters93 said:
Sucks that the cards didn't fall Webber's way, but if you look at the entire season you can't say he truly deserved it. Glad that the winner actually won (not saying who to avoid spoilers, just in case).

Strange then that most of the paddock wanted to see Webber take the championship. Maybe they get to see a side of him that you haven't?markot said:
EDIT: I don't mean that in a smart-arse way.
My New Vegas playthrough is approaching 80 hours and showing no sign of letting up. I got the perk that reveals all map locations, and I'm determined to visit them all. It's funny to see people defending planetary exploration in Mass Effect while playing through this.jambo said:
I'm pretty quick to jump on professional sports people, but Webber seems like a genuinely nice guy. Care to back up what you're saying at all?markot said:
I'm at about 24 hours now, level 16 or 17. I'm worried that if I do some certain missions i'll get close to finishing the game, and I really want to keep playing at higher levels for a while. AFAIK there's now free play once you finish the main quest.Fredescu said:
Currently I'm in the middle of talking to all of the tribes as part of the Yes Man Wild Card quest. I've already activated Mr House's army at the weather station underneath the Legion's headquarters. If I go and kill Mr House and report in to Yes Man, will that end the game?

I played for maybe 2-3 hours on the weekend, quite enjoyable so far.
Was it a mistake to start it in 'hardcore' mode? TBH it doesn't feel all that different.
Only issue for New Vegas is it is competing against me playing FM2011 at the same time.... gotta make myself feel good about taking West Ham to the top considering their real life position in the world.

For those who don't follow F1, Webber's comment was in response to Lewis Hamilton having his car impounded for doing a burnout while leaving the Albert park circuit. Glen Crompton wrote a great article for pitpass.com discussing it (he saw the whole thing) and pointing out that the most dangerous thing he saw was the way the police vehicles arrived!Choc said:
But on the subject of Webber's comment:
"It's a great country, but we've got to be responsible for our actions and it's certainly a bloody nanny state when it comes to what we can do. Lewis has found out very quickly.
"I think we've got to read an instruction book when we get out of bed - what we can do and what we can't do ... put a yellow vest on and all that sort of stuff. It pisses me off coming back here, to be honest."
I'm in wholehearted agreement and applaud him for coming out and saying it. If more people did maybe things would change.
Apart from the nanny state quote, all that article says is basically "people don't like him anymore". So you don't like him because of one quote and because some other people don't like him?markot said:
I think they were right to impound Hamilton's car for what it's worth. Doing fishtails on a public road is dangerous. I can't believe so many people here defend it.
F1 spoilers for anyone who hasn't seen it (anyone?)
2010 was a great season and I can't wait for next season.
Sucks that Webber didn't get the WDC but he didn't really have the speed of Vettel to challenge with that small of a points gap. After the race he seemed quite down to earth about the situation. Unlike Alonso who I lost some respect for this weekend, Petrov drove great for once this year and Alonso gestures to him like he should've moved over and given him the place. Poor form, Fernando.

Hardcore mode doesn't increase the difficulty all that much (apart from limb damage and companion perma death), it just adds an extra layer of management. I like it since it makes a lot of the items in the world worthwhile.Omi said:
I don't believe there is. You could always load an earlier save.jambo said:
Don't know actually. I haven't done any of the Yes Man stuff yet. Leaving that until last.jambo said:
can i just say that the shoot is the worst way to make a motion control game ever. So motion control is for casuals right, well the shoot isnt. It's so bloody annoying its not funny and its a shame because under the hood is an ok game
first problem
-Need to score a set number of points to unlock the next 'movie'. That's ok, but it would be nice if the game told you that BEFORE you started so you could focus more on getting points to unlock the game.
second problem
-You're points do not count unless you finish the movie. So if you fail on the last scene then no points are recorded. considering scenes can take up to 30 minutes, this is ridiculous. It really turns into a grind of the easier levels to unlock the others. casual gaming this is not
third problem
-the configuration of the Move keeps f'ing up. I dont' know if i am doing something wrong but i have to reconfigure it almost every scene.
the shoot demo was good the final game is shite

Because it was a nanny state crap on such a stupid issue which has nothing to do with nanny state and everything to do with public roads being shared areas.Fredescu said:
Thusly also his attitutude towards the interviewer, and his 'oh noes Red bull likes Vettel more' QQ make me irrefudically hate him. Also he is from Quenbeyan. Its like the worst city/town in NSW and right next to Canberra >.> its like a cess pit.

You don't like someone cause where they're from? :lol
I'm not from Quenbeyan
Fredescu said:
Ahh yeah, the limb thing is rather crippling at times.
Oh and I need to work out how to play caravan properly. Turns out not reading the rules is not a good idea.
Edit: OMG, just watched a video, no wonder I didn't understand it based on the rules given, you have to press DOWN in order to play a standard card. FMD. Talk about a rubbish interface. :lol

Sooooo, you don't like him because he lives in a town you don't like, you don't like him because he has an opinion, you don't like him because when asked about the same question over and over he tells them to fuck off.
Wow, i'd hate to see the reasons for people you really truelly hate. :lol

I'm seriously considering buying a new TV as my old SDTV is making gaming a nightmare. Looking at Dick Smith at the moment, trying to decide between going a cheaper Vivo 42" Plasma or a Sony Bravia 32" LCD for around the same price. Anyone have any TV advice?
Also, looking between a Sony EX400 & EX500, can't really find what the difference is though

Wow :lol :lolmarkot said:
It wasn't him QQ'ing, Red Bull were more clearly supportive of Vettel. They took Webber's damn front wing and gave it to Vettel after Vettel damaged his own on the eve of the Silverstone GP!
And now you're singling him out because of where he comes from...
:lol :lol :lol
I started it less than a month ago and am doing fine by myself so far (iOS development). Whenever I encounter a problem a quick Google search always has the answer.rass said:
I suggest at least getting a book which teaches you about the unique attritubes to ObjC but if you already have a programming background you should be fine for the most part.
I taught myself Visual BASIC (when I was 14 haha) and made a couple of random games, took programming at high school and made a sweet skateboarding game in BASIC with icon based animations and everything haha, it was a mess.Ydahs said:
I have no real background but I'm keen to learn. Just prefer to learn on a mac, hence obj.C
Do you use the apple development centre resources? I understand there are free articles or something after you sign up. I had a wave of inspiration after watching the social network last night, made me remember that I have aspirations haha.

I ended up caving and buying Black Ops yesterday. Story seems really splintered and harder to follow than I'd expected so far. Hasn't really sucked me in that much either.
And I almost turned it off when faced with two infinite spawns near one another. Fuck that shit.
I think I'm about 3/4 of the way through the campaign - just
, which was a pretty entertaining end to a level.
So far, I'd say campaign-wise that COD4 still has it, hands down.
Edit: Just read something in my RSS feed about
in the
, where you have to
. That was nearly-turn-off-the-game-forever shit right there.
