    I didn't think it was that bad, the graphics were at best 'varied', but compared to a console title I can't really complain.

    When it was released the graphics weren't so bad :) And it was pretty much an Xbox 360 port. Played that for a while; had the McLaren F1 and the Saleen S7 Twin Turbo ^.^

    You know, I've just been kidding you guys, esp Shokz, about all the genres. I'm the kind of guy who eats the same food all the time too - my brother says I have to vary my diet more, lol. (His theory is your body will discover what it's been missing in some new food, then you'll be good again.) Kevin - I'm adding you now. If you get the time, try to pop in today - all you guys. Kevin, don't worry about not performing spectacularly - I won't roast you (like Sam did me) hahaha.

    I had it originally for PSP and thought it wasn't too bad and get really far through but the PC version doesn't really live up to the hype the 360 version got over the PSP version.

    Aye it was a phat that had latest M33 (about the time they locked us out of PS store then crackers added a single .txt to fix) but the screen cracked and I took it out to replace and have never been bothered to buy another and lost all screws

    Hehe, give it a couple of years :) Though I got a DS simply because it was rubbish to use a mouse to click on the emulated touch screen :p

    Anyway, where's everyone else and why haven't they told me their SteamIDs yet? ;)

    Thanks guys. Ahhh, warms my heart LOL!

    Im sorry about today guys. I still haven't found the damned leak either. Oh sorry, I only told Rich about the issue. An irrigation line in my mothers yard is leaking, and requires immediate attention LOL! I checked the first two lines, I believed to be culprits, but they were not the problem. I do have a couple more candidates before having to dig up literally all of them. See...I live in a Semiarid(semi Desert terrain), and to have water issues is not good LOL! She lives on 2 acres, and has 3 dogs. 2 of them are suffering from the now unusually dry climate. One of them may have to go to the vet soon. Certain plants called Foxtails, are quite serious health hazards to animals. Thats just one of the nuisances around here to. We also have, "Goat heads" or Puncturevine. Very nasty stuff. We try to keep the ground moist to keep them away. So as you can see, this is a matter of urgency. I sincerely apologize for how this day has transpired :( I will try to hook up with you fine people next week. Perhaps sooner with some of you :)

    By the way, keeping the ground moist, allows GRASS to take over, there by controlling foxtails, goatheads, etc.
    Sorry about Off topic

    Haha here we have a lot of Poison Oak and Poison Ivy. I'd much much rather have poison ivy than oak but neither is very fun. Blistering skin that ends up looking like chemical burns, swelling, constantly oozing pus, itching to the point of insanity. Try living with it really bad all over your arms, neck and chest for 3 weeks and you'll understand where I'm coming from :p
