Even though you have the controller in your hand? I would use it a couple of times but the novelty would wear off pretty quickly, I just don't see it as a selling point, but I can see why some will, I never went for 3D TV either Yes. If you have the controller in your hand and are in one game, you have to press the Xbox button, then move the cursor to the games + apps tile, then click that, then scroll to the game you want, then press the button to load. It doesn't take any longer to do that than it used to on 360 or PS3 (in fact it's quicker as the menu structure is better), but I can be in the middle of a race in Forza then simply say "Xbox go to FIFA14" and it'll load instantly. And I do mean instantly. It shouldn't be a massive selling point, however it's critical to the overall experience. I can see why you're not so keen, I'm anti-3D as well so I know where you're coming from on things that add nothing to the overall experience, but this genuinely does. It's hard to overstate just how integrated this is, and while it does feel dumb as hell at first talking to your Xbox, give it a day and then it becomes natural and you stop speaking in a fake accent and speaking normally at normal volume. I didn't say it wasn't an important game, nor a pretty one, but it was absolutely dire to play. All the other games mentioned still remain classics and are great to play to this day, RR on the other hand is simply poor.

Completely agree, even down to the Maser comment. As a bit of noise to advertise with, it clearly does the job. However, imagine popping to the shops in that, and it making all that racket: It's going to get embarrassing and irritating after a while. We all like a good bit of sound, but that's just daft. Aston has got the balance right in the V8V, Jag just going for OTT.

Bit harsh, no. 2 is a great shot.

One definitely deserves to

I could get rid of those in 10 secs for you.

Someone likes the lens flare effect in PS!

It's quicker to switch games that way than go via the menu.

Great car, still miles too expensive. V6S coupe now the one to buy, I sensible specced one to a fraction over £60K.

YOUR CAR IS EJACULATING!!!11 Just kidding. It's normal.

Always do all engine/breathing related mods before any kind of ECU alterations. Bit late now, but worth bearing in mind for the future

I bet he's got bonnet raisers on his own car at home!

Maldonado is a knob.

Leave it as-is. iLittle sounds stupid, ioneabee is actually a bit clever as far as daft interweb names go.

The Forza Drivatars annoyed me at first. They're very much like racing against bumper cars, and they brake in the most random of places which makes drafting overtakes impossible without rewinding. It was frustrating as hell. Then it hit me: That's exactly what it should be like. I'm so used to AI who keep to the racing line and only rarely go a-wandering like once per 10 lap race. This really feels like I'm racing real people, and it will only get better with time. I adore it muchly.

F*ck off with Ridge Racer, it was absolutely f*cking awful! :lol: Pretty yes, but a classic launch title no. It's like Ryse in that respect.

When you say you couldn't get it to control the Sky box, what were you trying to get it to do? It's my understanding that, until Sky and MS sort the software out, it'll act purely as a pass through so no control will be possible. You'll still need the Sky remote for that. Mine happily turns on and off the TV and AVR, and does the volume on the AVR too (in helpful 1.5dB steps too, rather than the useless 0.5dB steps I was expecting).

Haven't done that yet, may give it a go tomorrow.

Well that's no fun

SMB1 is rubbish. Seriously, I hate that game. EA phone support is quite helpful, you know. I had to call them earlier to sort out some issues with my gamer tag and origin, and the nice Yanks on the end of the phone sorted it out for me pretty quickly. Now I can go back to being crap at FIFA

He said "cheaper".

Anyone who does this mod is a complete and utter mongbucket of the highest order. I've never seen anything more stupid in my entire life, and I've watched Hollyoaks since it started.

Oh yeah, that second picture really shows them off!!!!11

SNES had SMW, N64 had Mario64. That's about it.

I was expecting a pic of Holly Pretty sky
