Her deeds certainly are a bit too dirty for my taste. Enjoyable to watch on Entourage at least!
Aside from her horrible acting

Can't wait to watch Carl Williams killer get sentenced in Underbelly 34.

I don't know what's more painful, watching Underbelly or getting fisted with a bike part.

Codec problem maybe? PS3 too far away from the router? Firmware update broke the streaming program?

If anyone wants a Frozen Synapse steam code post the cutest picture you can find.

That's a shame. I've heard she's quite fond of yours.

And what's this about podcast? You do podcast? Good podcast? Sexy podcast?

Eh? Eh?

I speak to Jahanzeb on a regular basis! We do the PALGN podcast together (usually), and chat online.

That's good to know, I've known him (online) for about 5 years or so...and met him early this year in Sydney at the Killzone 3 pre-launch event by Sony. He came for the free food....

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
The free food is usually why any of us go :lol.

Planet_JASE, occasionally* PALGN does a podcast. Usually it's me and my colleagues Anthony and Jahanzeb. Occasionally Jahanzeb is replaced with Jeremy. You can check it out on PALGN, if you can find it. I wont speak for its quality, though you might want to listen to 3chopl0x.

*whenever we feel like it.

I just finished Forgotten Sands. It was pretty decent, even though I finished it in a day.

I was severely disappointed with it. Sands of Time was the best, Warrior Within close second. Even the cell-shaded POP was well done. Forgotten sands was a game I'd like to forget.

What was wrong with Forgotten Sands? Everyone bitched that the rebooted series had lost its way since Sands of Time, so they delivered what was basically Sands of Time version two with Forgotten Sands. I enjoyed it enough but it was a bit lacklustre. I enjoyed Prince of Persia (2008) a lot more than others seemed to.

I never understood the hate for the instant-recovery mechanic since to me it's almost exactly the same as Sands of Time -- you die, you go back to a checkpoint of sorts and try again. The main difference was you never "died", but really, you "died" as much as in any similar game in that you went back to where you were moments ago.

I think all of them were pretty good except for Warrior Within. If I had to rank them I'd put Sands of Time at the top followed by Forgotten Sands, Two Thrones then 2008.

I feel like buying the HD collection on PS3 to replay the first and third games but I hear it's a bad collection so now I'm not sure. Only $20 at Zavvi so not that huge an investment.

Nah that was Warrior Within when the prince went through his "I'm so angry" phase.

Oh Georgie (Brandis) boy, did you even read the judgement?

'Regardless of the niceties of the case, the fact is today in Australia ... journalists, commentators, ordinary citizens are not free to make critical and unpopular remarks in the course of ordinary political exchange,' Senator Brandis told Sky News on Thursday
Click to expand...

What is he even on about? Of course those can be said, but you must let the facts get in the way of your good story first! Fuck. I knew this judgement would be distorted beyond belief, but I expected better from the shadow AG.

BF3 beta is downloading now, after I had a fair old argument with the Origin client. Safe to say if BF3 doesn't find it's way onto Steam I won't be bothering, at least in the short term.

The whole thing is stupid though, I mean they are all focusing on the wrong part of the ruling and the law in defending bolt.

Not to mention, the law came into effect in like what 93? And this is the first conviction, head for the hills free speech is dead!

Storytelling, combat, puzzles, music....everything was lacking. Not to mention the very ugly prince.

What? WW was amazing...apart from the glitches (mostly on the PC version), it had brilliant combat, great puzzles, amazing heavy metal music by Inon Zur and the alternate endings were superb as well.

This battlelog thing must be a fucking joke, who the fuck puts the server browser in a web browser that requires a plugin and to have origin running?!

Wow, the BF3 beta is arse. So arse it's actually kinda funny. The floor glitches in Operation Metro are ridiculous. One dude called it "Call of Duty Floor: Modern Floorfare" :lol.

The website server browser is terrible, surely that's not in the full game? Totally agree with you there pl0x, just screams so much bloat in this game on PC. Graphics very underwhelming also after all the hype. Some nice splosions and dust and shit flying around though. Not sure if it's just me, but changing graphics settings doesn't seem to change appearance or performance, it's just set on auto and even when changed to ultra high and low did nothing.

Yeah. The problem with the game was the platforming was pretty much automated making it too easy and it felt linear. The checkpoint mechanic was fine. Took out the need to replay large portions of the game for deaths that weren't your fault.

Sorry for the late reply, I've already asked around in my friends circles and no one really needs to move the way I want to. And unfortunately I think rent will be too much by myself so I'm sort of stuck.

The platforming certainly was linear. Though I don't know if the other recent PoPs are really that much different. I found the enjoyment came more from timing the jumps correctly to get a nice smooth chain going, and if you mucked up the timing, you had this clunky jumping going on.

I never played more than a couple of minutes of Warrior Within, and didn't play Two Thrones, but Sands of Time felt more puzzle oriented platforming than the more recent PoPs. Whether it actually was or simply felt that way because at the time it was a breath of fresh air, I don't really know.

IMO the temples in Assassin's Creed have taken the place of PoP anyway.
