Yes. We'll find out in the next couple of weeks.
This could turn out to be another RROD scenario, or just a few isolated defective units.

I just can't see it. Surely the RROD would have scared Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft equally to the point they'd rather invest more in testing etc than losing millions in repairs.

 

[Wilbur]

I do really like Will Hughes.

He's a lovely little player. Hopefully he continues getting gametime, so Meier's wish for him to go to City should be fucking shot down

 

[3Sixty]

Always rated Berahino.

Fuck Zaha though, maybe the worst performance I've ever seen.

Nah lol I'm not nuts.

-2 asian handicap.

If it finished 2-0 my stake would have been returned but won at 3-0.

You're bending the contours of my brain here three60.

Nope

m8 you do it until Brendan offers you first team coach

then you leave no questions asked xoxo

 

[Linius]

So Belgium losing to Colombia. Andres be happy.

 

[Kenka]

Oh, I agree, Switzerland are a bit underrated. Could cause trouble for many traditional powers.

As for the groups, it works like this:

Seeded pot: Brazil, Argentina, Spain, Germany, Colombia, Uruguay, Belgium, Switzerland

CONCACAF/Asia pot: US, Mexico, Honduras, Costa Rica, Japan, Korea, Australia, Iran

European pot: Italy, Netherlands, Russia, England, Bosnia, playoff winners

CONMEBOL/AFRICA pot: Chile, Ecuador, 5 African teams

Special pot: lowest rated European team, drawn in such a way as to avoid groups having 3 European teams. This happened in 2006 if anybody remembers with Serbia,

I didn't know anything of this sort ! I naively pictured the draw as something similar to WC 94 where teams were sorted in 4 pots, end of the story.

OK, so I would go for :

Switzerland
Australia
Bosnia
Ghana

A well-balanced and attractive group.

Congrats? Lol

You'll sign for Fulham just to be next to Berbatov.

Watching 'Under The Dome'. Pretty sure this bald guy was in Breaking Bad.

Lol, I think everybody in that group would be happy with that draw. Unlike, say, this group:

Brazil
Netherlands
France
Chile

If you are a youth player why would you want to go to City?

[Zabojnik]

Just sold my iPhone 4. Gonna get this Moto G next week.

Huge, huge upgrade, imo. Totally worth it.

 

[Sviatoslav]

Just read that Criscito will be in the starting lineup for Italy tomorrow. Good for him, first those silly match-fixing accusations caused him to miss Euros and then he missed so much time with injuries.

 

[Clegg]

Finland you poaching bastards

 

[KidA Seven]

Soon, baby, soon.

Are you sure you like Juve?

 

[Sviatoslav]

:lol

I just wrote that because we don't know who those teams will be yet(well besides Ghana, lol sleepless). Notice I did the same thing with the European playoffs too.

Stop trying to paint me as a racist.

 

[Clegg]

Apparently Titanfall and its sequels are now Xbox One exclusive.

 

[KidA Seven]

Thoughts on new Argentina kit!

So another national team kit is ruined. Argentina always had black shorts (sometimes blue) and now that is lost in time too.

 

[Zabojnik]

Looking forward to seeing how much he's improved by training in the unforgiving siberian cold with wolves.

good.

Shame because it looks really, really, really fun.

Not going to be one of those goobers who goes 'baha looks shit anyway I'd rather play Killzone' like the kid who didn't get invited to the birthday party.

 

[cremino]

Italy U21 won 3-0 against North Ireland U21. We could have easily won 7-8 if we hadn't missed all those chances. North Ireland had a chance but Gray missed a sitter literally alone a couple of yards from the net

 

[K1LLER7]

Looking at some graduate scheme application forms, gonna be a tedious process

Wilbs, get me a job at Nando's!

I don't think such a kid would exist anywhere.

No problem for me, I'll be playing the 1st one on PC same day as Xbox, In a year I'll probably get an Xbox anyway.

please no, you wouldn't like it.

I haven't a fuck what to do with when I graduate (if I graduate); was thinking of asking about the marketing side of Nandos anyway for a bit if nothing was coming up, asking how to move sideways into the corporate part of it

Also attending a primary PGCE open day at my uni at the start of December

From a polygon livestream

"We know what Microsoft's got coming out. They've already shown some of it, they've talked about it and they've already put Titanfall with a giant pin on the map. In order to hammer that Titanfall "1" was always going to be an Xbox/PC exclusive. In order to really hammer that in, they've bought the rights to the whole series."

"Oh, ok"

"Oh, oh they did"

"It it it's not just the first..."

"Titanfall 2 will never... They bought Titanfall"

"Uh.... Probably a good business move for them"

"Probably a good buy. Dump truck of money."

eh, doubt it, if they really somehow got that info they would put that up as some breaking news lol

Edit : and for confirmation

It's only a few weeks ago he sounded bitter about it not coming to all platforms, not sure why he would have suddenly sold it to MS then. Just Polygon being fucking clueless as always, they're the fucking talkshite of gaming.

Fair enough then.

I'm now interested in where Polygon got their info.

I don't know what the fuck I really want to do, and I'm working 9am until 6/7pm until I realise.

The problem is the longer I stay and work my arse off in PR, and get significantly better at it, the more it feels like I have to keep doing it.

Which is probably nonsense. I'm only 21. But still, I'm kind of in a career now and moving sideways is scary.

It is.

You'll be on Chad Warden money if that comes off.

Liverpool fans do you know much about Adam Morgan

It seems he's coming on loan to Ewood

Someone answer this man!!

Think you know you're talking a little silly anyway. You keep earning until you have a semblance of an idea what you want to do, and then you go for that. If you don't really know what you want to do, then the alternative is doing something and getting fucking guacamole in your pocket, which is what you're doing.

I wouldn't fret Arnie baby

Attened a microsoft talk last week. Was pretty good. Found out they make you go through a skype interview. Going to another presentation on Monday.

I'm looking for a marketing or business related job too. Applied to a couple of places. Had 2 phone interviews so far and 3 online tests. Juggling uni assignments and job applications taking up most of my time nowadays.

Going through Sky's application process at the moment.

 

[kharma45]

Good luck mate.

I wish. You get paid bugger all compared to most grad schemes, it's shockingly low frankly.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Chris Grant on twitter:

Apparently not - I thought it was the future franchise, not the future installments of the first one. Sorry! Corrected on air

So... "I didn't really bother to read this shit, so I just made dumb claims on air and then pretended to know better than the people questioning it".

 

[K1LLER7]
