More pretend brands
I would rate the car better with a Nissan badge, it is not like they have a bad image, 370Z and GT-R provide a good image, but I would be too embarrassed to drive a Toyota Lexus or Nissan Infinti. Yet I would be proud of a GT-R

Have they played any games?
Glorify violence - well I have played enough and to be honest they don't, Bulletstorm as an example - that is just an OTT shoot everything that attacks you, simply entertainment, no way are you going to go and shoot things in real life after that.
I play a few other FPS and online gaming is like a bunch of friends paintballing, not real, just fun.

Re: Dogged
We get on well with most neighbours, but a local busybody and her pair of fans are the issue. Her husband is the nearest thing to an idiot around here, but just say my next door neighbour had a visit from armed police, who turned nice when they realised it was someone they knew and a bogus call.
Would you tell people that you used your work IT system to see what was happening with all your neighbours, then mention that person x is on meals on wheels?
Then would you post defamitory crap on an open Faceache page?
Mr Fan is just quiet, used to moan to me all the time, about Busy Body and her husband, suddenly he is their friend and blanks me, his wife is just rude, tempted to put a note through their door refuting her claims!!!!

Great
The animations were very good, will show to my children tonight.
BTW don't knock our railways too much, there were quite a few very clever people involved.
So we started the tilting trains, worlds fastest steam & Diesel, steam heavy freight locos capable of an easy 90mph, most powerful Diesel in 50s and 60s at less than half the weight of the most powerful US loco, and most recent a heavy freight Diesel specifically designed to out pull the equivalent US design.
Be proud of them

B&W TV
I have one, about 1" to 2" screen 1982 model, works on composite only - video camera viewfinder.
To be honest who actually gives a stuff about B&W TV, no one would prefer it, if they really want TV just let them buy a cheap digital TV.
I haven't seen a real B&W TV since Ridge Hill went colour. (My dad was an early adopter)

Car fans
Of course time for fans of other brands to get a dig in. As the owner of a GM (Russelheim) car I am supposed to.
Personally I have no idea what to buy next as GM abandoned that market segment about 5 years after Ford, unless I buy a Holden product.

PC vs Console arguments
Will you stop this silliness?
You are allowed both, you are allowed to play exclusives on the platforms.
They are all games.
It is supposed to be fun.
PCs are not going away. Consoles are still producing good games.
You know what?
While online gaming on PS3 I don't think "the graphics are poor aghhhh" I just think where is the enemy and I have fun, So it is 1280x720 - looks OK, there are particle effects, animated maps, things changing, 24 people, up to 4 aerial bots, 8 turrets, a few other bots, jetpacks, exos, what would better graphics bring? (and why did I use the game which showed up Crytek over Crysis 2 console).
I can happily sit at the PC for an hour and play a Half Life game or ME1.
Just stop argueing and enjoy the games.

Re:Go and die
Had an old recording on TV yesterday, someone forgot to skip the adverts, I had to run across the room, (next room to TV) and I nearly kicked in my TV to shut it up.
Power switch was first thing to hand, I know I shouldn't do but it does have a 5 year warantee.
BTW they are on my permanent shit list along with 4 or 5 other companies.
UK games market clutches chest, bleeds out sales in 2012

Here goes
2011 was a good year for games, lots of really good ones released, this year is a little dry and a lot of the good games are download only (eg Journey).
Also less money this year - recession.
That said we have some new handheld games consoles, so time to get a few for that.
My favourites from 2012 : Dishonoured, Journey, Uncharted Golden Abyss. So that is one full AAA release for a non handheld.
Between us in 2011 we bought 5 or 6 big games.
