iPrimus now have a 1.111TB plan
Plan is available on all Primus and Optus DSLAMS.
Uploads and Downloads Counted.
1,111GB of usage (511 peak, 600 off-peak)
Peak is 10am to 2am
Price is $99.95 bundled or unbundled.
Naked Version is $119.95.
It's getting a bit silly now and this is before the NBN is actually out. Australian internet with 2TB of quota on a 100mbit line in a few years? Probably believable.

I will await Internode's new ADSL1 plans before I jump ship to iiNet. Hopefully they're great.

They announced them last week. So i don't know if they will do a revision or not, but there's been some thread shutdowns regarding both isps on whirlpool as requested from mr internode himself.
Now we wait for everyone else to jump on board. I await the TPG 2TB quota :lol
I'm pretty sure you can switch to the newer plans at no cost so long as they aren't any cheaper - I know my boss switched to a plan with better quota only a couple of months into contract. I did the same thing, but I had been out of contract for 6 months already when it happened.Jintor said:
Can anyone tell me how that ubisoft $1 game thing panned out? I assume it was an attack but it had me intrigued - my Apple branded smartphone is not the ideal tool for browsing gaf haha

The new ADSL1 plans for me are crapola. My current speed is 1500/256 and if I pay the same price, I get to have 5 less GB to use AND have my uploads counted! Hooray! I hope they do a re-revision so I don't have to change to iiNet. I'll give it a month or two for them to announce new plans before I change.
I hate how the cheapest ISP plans are so disgustingly terrible. But I guess the ISPs have to do that to keep people signed up to dearer plans and keep the price up.
The NBN plans a few pages back are pretty ass too, but I assume things will change as the rollout spreads through the mainland.

Also if you want release dates for Nintendo stuff I have just fixed the Vooks release date calendar, so if I know when something is coming it's up there;

Hah. Both for the fort. They are NTSC so I can't play them anyway.
They are releasing a PAL cartridge later on (for all I know it could be out by now) but PAL stuff never gets the same amount of interest from collectors. If there's one thing I've learned in all my years of building forts, it's to make sure it's NTSC, otherwise you're basically throwing money away.

They made an Atari 2600 version of Halo. You can also play it as a flash game online, so the actual cartridge is more of a collector's item.trinest said:
Just downloaded Monster Dash, may not be able to play it until I head home today though. Enjoy my dollar-nineteen, Halfbrick.
Edit: gave it a quick whirl, seems fun. Does the on-screen jump button remain there all the time? The shoot button seemed to disappear which was nice. Also I finally set up an OpenFeint account, same as my twitter account (lorcanw).

Holy shit? Gaz got canned? Any indication as to why Krome Brisbane was shut down?

God I hate Twitter. The character limit means that a lot of stuff is totally ambiguous. It's like we're 16 year old girls obsessing over the meaning of a text message from a boy.
It's times like this I call into question my ideas of getting out of IT and into the games biz. Sure I may dislike my job considerably right now, but at least my job security is so significant that I'd have to murder someone to lose it.
The games biz is brutal, unnecessarily so. In so many ways the industry do themselves a great disservice.

All entertainment industries are like that, really. When your job is to directly provide people with joy, you have a lot of people beating down the door to get into the industry and this makes you more replaceable than if you were (say) a dentist.
