Anyone else read that book Tony Abbott shat out specifically because he's that confident he'll win the election?

I mean look at that cover. Jesus how smug.

I've got a 3 day pass and absolutely zero plans for what I'm going to do there. Of course, I guess you can't exactly plan when there's no schedule for the show.

I think youll find i have filled in the form
To be fair, his confidence is pretty well founded. Pretty sure he's going to be PM.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Apogee/3D Realms have struck up something pretty official with GOG. The fact that they have Terminal Velocity on there now (wooooo!) is so awesome. Was never a massive fan of their earlier stuff though. Having said that... if they had Secret Agent Man on there, I'd be pretty happy.I miss seeing this logo before games... =[
While we're at it, we need Rick Dangerous on GOG.
Pretty much.
Did you perhaps use a name other than your AusGAF one? I deleted PantsMcStevenson or something along those lines because I had no clue who it was...

It isn't exactly the wisest choice, he's acting like he'll become as iconic as John Howard or Ronald Reagan within the conservative base. If he loses the election then he'd have to be more red faced than Alex Downer from how embarrassing he made his career.
Even if he does become PM the book isn't very specific, it's just 150ish pages of Liberal talking points, no real policies. Which makes it even more insulting to people who follow politics that such a snake of a politician can get into the office without much of a scratch on him.

Looking through the first 3 pages it looks like he's made a clipart collection.

That's despicable even before the verdict yesterday. I hope he sues the shit out of that paper.
From twerp's little essay :
And there we have it, he has also recently been quoted saying he would like to cancel white elephants such as the NBN, this man frustrates me to no end in this space. He is also constantly contradicting his own communications minister. In my own opinion, unless forced by the greens (if they hold the balance of power) there will be no NBN and we will end up with an even more hodge podged patched network. The frustrating thing for the public is when the benefits of the NBN are realised and some people can take advantage of them while others cannot.

Ha ha wow. Imagine choc rage if he owned Canterbury instead
Imagine Choc's rage if he called someone a "knob" and an "idiot" and then got banned for it. He'd probably lie about the thread on Twitter.
Says someone called him mentally retarded when no one did. Guy is an out and out liar.

What happens when people over extend themselves.
Still don't most clubs run at a loss?
Twitter does seem to suit him and his rolling topic discussions. Looking at his feed, I wonder how he gets any work done with the frequency of tweets.
I'm in tears. Where did that reaction come from? Some things aren't worth getting worked up over. YouTube on Wii U is one of them.
My mistake, apparently someone called him retarded 4 weeks ago. https://twitter.com/noreasonspec/status/279040712073428992

On the note of Prog Rock/Metal I recently grabbed the latest LaBrie album and it is quite good fun.
A slab of "ginger beer" from Dans for $19! Ordered 2 for Christmas.
EVERYONE BETTER ALREADY OWN ARCANUM OR YOU BETTER BUY IT FOR THREE DOLLAR YOU BUGGERS
Wait, Choc is banned again? I barely check Twitter now

That whole email I got from GOG looks awesome. Will spend up big once I get home.

Yep
How the fuck can they run that on the front page of a newspaper? Like a bunch of fucking children. The fuck.
HOLY SHIT!

Reminds me of German propaganda from WWII. Except not nearly as clever.
Why the fuck did I spend 5 minutes reading that twitter :/
*shakes fist*
Surprised?
He did say he PM'd a mod, so maybe the post was removed, but without any further action...
Does anyone else get the feeling the Wii U is going to be a huge bomb? Like, of GameCube proportions?
It just doesn't seem like anyone is going to make games for it. At all. Look at the western publishers that still exist:
- EA: basically have zero interest in the console. At this point I'm convinced Iwata had an affair with Riccitello's wife.
- Ubisoft: - They'll put out ports and Just Dance. Doubt they'll make any more exclusives after Rayman.
- Take Two: - won't support it.
- THQ: Soon to be dead.
- Activison: Barely release anything outside of CoD and Skylanders anyway.
- Bethesda: Can't picture them providing any support.
It might have some okay support in Japan, but handhelds rule there and for the developers still making console games want nothing more than to appeal to the west (see: Dark "we want that sweet sweet Elder Scrolls money" Souls 2).
All the developers that could have found a home on the Wii U are dead. Mid-tier games are dead and they are never coming back. It's big budgets or $10 DD games, with nothing in between. Talking consoles only here, of course.
If I didn't basically shift 90% of my gaming to PC this would make me really sad. It certainly makes the 14 year old Nintendo fanboy version of me sad.

Any of MelGAF interested in Friday night drinks? Holy, Banana, Omi and I have all expressed some sort of interest. Any other takers? Perhaps other MelGAFfers in the thread who haven't attended any meets might want to come along.
Beer DeLuxe is always nice and central, so that's easy unless anyone's got any other ideas.

Yeah, but I thought that about the 3DS too and it seems to be going ok, so what do I know.

I'd agree with most of this except UBI will probably try another exclusive or two, shit they had a Vita exclusive AC spinoff. Japanese support is probable but strangely atm there is even less announced Japanese games for it than western. You are also forgetting Square Enix as a western publisher
but I don't see much support from them either.Google Docs is blocked at work, will fill it out over the next few days.
