I think it's more the fact that you rated the game "fail" after watching a 1 minute trailer

Thank you for posting this choc, I've actually been looking for an article all week that sums it all up as the Australian media doesn't seem to have much on it and the GAF thread is massive

Should hit further up the coast. Hopefully my football game isn't affected.

Thanks for the heads up.

Choc, Syndicate still looks like ass.

There's nothing really wrong with this new remake of daytona, Just that it doesn't exist in an arcade cabinet in my house, so you know, it's instantly inferior to the original product.

Playing daytona with a controller just isn't going to have the same thrill and excitement as throwing gears from 1 to 4, 2 to 4 as you slam the steering wheel left or right. Instead i'm pushing triggers and flicking a thumb stick to either side.

Also no pc version so sale. kekeke

Gotta agree with cookie there, picked up Crazy Taxi on PC recently and it's just not the same experience :C

ARGH real estate y u so painful!

Today went to see a house in Mitcham that's been on the market since last Saturday. This was the second day it's been open, and the auction is scheduled for the 29th. ESR 630-690k, and we fully expected to have to pay at least 720k for it. Yes, I'm aware the agent is being naughty, but then so is everyone else who sees this house.

Except that today anyone turning up sees it's SOLD.

Rang the agent and they sold it for 721k.

Hadn't even been inside and it was the best house we'd seen for sale in Mitcham (that we could afford) in aaaages.

Sadface.

Games like Daytona and Sega Rally, Bomberman, Pac Man CE, Space Invaders Extreme, 2d Mario etc really strike home for me that games used to be better.

Gazunta has won life with that comic. GAME OVER. G.A.M.E.O.Ooh.E.R.

It's not so much funny as it is true. Fuck you guys, I'm gonna do what I want! PS. Now totes want the Daytona theme at a karaoke night.

In fact, shit... I'm gonna suggest (maybe) that the Mana Bar guys do a videogame karaoke night.

ARGH real estate y u so painful!

When I was looking earlier this year I was interested in a house and harrassed the Real Estate AgentI was told that the only way I could see it (the address wasn't listed) was on the Open Day.

He then contacted me later on during the week to let me know the house had been sold.

If I hadn't been so surprised that a real estate agent had proactively contacted me I might have had a go at him.

I hate you, real estate agents. I really do.

Don't get too excited. The "prize" is only a badge that says "I'm #1" and a gift voucher for The Body Shop.

What's that, like 200? I could play the arcade 100 times for that much. Sit in broken seats, gears that probably don't work correctly so you have to slam the shit out of it so it registers.

Madness

Will be interviewed for peanuts.

P.s. Thanks guys for the wallstreet articles, very interesting read

I'd like to see similar charts for Australia.

http://www.theaustralian.com.au/nat...f-asylum-seekers/story-fn59niix-1226166090308

THE Gillard government will allow asylum-seekers who arrive by boat to live in the community and work while their refugee claims are assessed in a policy backdown that is expected to result in a dramatic surge in unauthorised boat arrivals.

Under a plan presented to the Labor caucus today, asylum-seekers will be processed onshore with fast-tracked health checks, the right to work and living money provided.

They will receive bridging visas while their claims are processed and live in community housing, in the same way as asylum-seekers that arrive by plane.

Caucus members were reportedly stunned when told of the new measures by Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Immigration Minister Chris Bowen.

and the humiliation is complete.

 

[Jintor]

I'm going to go with 'cautious optimism'.
