Hey guys,
Long time no see! I've been in china, and have spent some cash (which was meant to be on new suspension)! Ended up buying this (tell me what size it is, use Xbox for reference):

Haha, yeh it's a tricky one - got some sneaky stuff thrown in to send you off. Marc complained about the lack of quality in the photo, i said he'll have to manage! At least you have a chance with no-one on at this time!

Nice. I still have my two Atari 7800's. One has no sound, one has no colour output, only b&w. Should really get them out and restore them. :p
Love the LED tv, btw. :D

Thanks Tony! It really is a thrill to collect, my first console was megadrive II, sonic nd alex Kidd!
Then to what took up most of my childhood, n64!
Then xbox and got it chipped too! Opened up a world of entertainment, shame the 360 is locked tight!

I'll be playing tetris on my Gameboy Light till I passout tonight!

Nite, Steve.

Thanks adam, I've got a spot in my heart for 7800's, they were a big turning point! As for the LED tv, I've never seen a blacker black in my life, makes the colour spectrum so freaking massive, you can watch it just for the colour depth!

True, you can flash a new firmware into the hardware of the DVD drive allowing burnt games, but that's as far as they have got, an I'm a big online fan, so can't mod too much, cept more fans and see through case. Oh nd I added you tonight rix!

Ok for starters.. OMG don't you get sunburn from that thing, it's huge.

Secondly, you're watching Battlestar Gallactica :) My Dad loves that show lol.

Hope you had a nice time in China :D

EDIT: Damn Orion beat me with the TV show.. oh well.. was worth a shot. I'm disadvantaged because I don't go on here of an evening lol. :o

Haha I have to stop coming online after I get home from drinking! Sorry buddy only had one up 4 grabs! Being drunk makes xboxlive fun tho, it's like being in a bar and yelling at people but behind really strong glass where they can't get you.

Yeah at first I was like "damn why did I have to get one this big!?" but seen as it was purely for xbox gaming and surfing the net on PC, the quality you can see on that surface area is amazing! Sometimes you do find yourself looking left to right to see everything haha

your dad rocks btw, I'm just starting to get through the first season of the show, and I'm hooked, got 3 to go now!

China was amazing! I'd beenthere two years previous with my family, this time just took my gf. Was one awesome experence and the two of us have come back even closer! Awesome food, cheap clothes, spent $6000 in total each for the whole trip - so quite affordable for a months holiday! We ate like kings and filled our wordrobe!

Nah pretty easy, we learnt the basics like: yes, no, beer, cold, thank you, and the almighty important - chilli. I love chilli.
I recon I could still remember them all - shi, bushi, pijiu, bing, xie xie, and lajiao!

1 warning, xbox live + beer + abuse = ban

me and my cousin have been banned about 3 times for getting drunk, putting on scottish accents and yelling at teenage boys through the power of the internets.

usually a combination of words that sound funny coming from that accent, like scrote, scrotebag, and scroteface.... lol

it all winds up with getting too drunk to play halo, and just running around throwing grenades before getting banned or passing out.

Wow man, you must be the unlucky one, -at least- once a week i get pissed with a mate of mine and hurl abuse on halo3. It's pretty much the thing i have to do to fulfill my week. I'm going on 2 years now, me and my mates are always competing to get a higher amount in the rating system, example: too much trash talk 60%, etc.

But i also find i play harder when im drunk, as for drifting in forza 2, horrible unless sober. GTA4, at least 100 times better when drunk, straight on the sidewalk express for pedestrian madness.

Who's got ODST? I've had it since Monday - Pure sexy awesomeness.

Cheers,
Steve.
