  1. Will never happen. XBL is closed loop now. XBL will not allow crossplay between 360 and Xbone titles either.
  2. Is it grip or feel you want? Something like the 453 would give you the former at the expense of the latter, or the VUS (if available) will be the opposite. Of course, you could just get the MPSS and get both, along with much longer life from them, but you would break your budget. Worth every single penny, mind.

    Also an MOT fail. No-one ever does, but you could.
  4. HBTY HBTY HBDR HBTY I genuinely had no idea you were that old. Granted, don't think we've ever met nor have I seen a pic, but I'd have pegged around 35 tops.
  5. I'm signing nothing. It's not down to MS to make sure that stuff other companies make works with new kit, that's down to the individual manufacturers to sort. Yes, it sucks if you spent big on a Fanatec wheel, but anyone who bought one thinking it was going to last forever is a fool. I didn't expect my 360 wheel to work with the Xbone.
  6. DPD?
  7. It's not in B&Q: The price is in dollars.
  8. None if those have been mentioned, buggerlugs
  9. Wii to GC, with classic controller. MD to MS, with adaptor thing. PS3 to PS2, if you bought an early one.
  10. It's a character Massive p*ss take of internet nerds.
  11. Sorry folks, we're going to pull out of this I'm afraid, other commitments have arisen on that day.
  12. Exactly. How do you prove that? £216 is peanuts on a phone worth three times that originally. Suck it up, or pay the insurance excess (you do have insurance, right?).

    Fuel economy won't change Open filter increases noise but removes bhp Closed filter increases bhp (for a bit unless you Uprev) and keeps the OEM noise level Popcharger is a brand name like Typhoon Popcharger is cheap and will do all you need it to Conclusion: Buy a Popcharger
  14. Yeah 'cos cheap chinese knock off make the best turbo systems
  15. But they do. Feel isn't something you can easily break down into categories, it's about the whole package, and I thought that this year's Ecoty did a pretty good job of that.
  16. I think you've both missed the point of the entire magazine tbh, EVO is not about whether the stitching is uniform throughout, or whether the optional heated seats are worth it. It's about how the cars drive, and how they make you feel. It's why the 350Z is more highly rated by them than the 370Z, despite being a slower car with an uglier interior. It's why massive horsepower cars don't always trump the hot hatches, and why things like steering feel and chassis feedback are rated so very highly.
  17. Martini stripes, although the red isn't as red as it should be really. But yeah, that's me!
  18. Depends on the game and the developer. Some games are currently lower res but oddly look better on the Xbone due to the colouring and scaling, but it's so early days that no-one really knows how different ports of multiplats will look in the future.
  19. It's not best car, it's EVO Car of the Year. A car can have flaws but still be an incredible drive, and so be in with a chance of winning. It's about character and soul as much as technical perfection. They did try and describe it a few years back, no idea what their phrasing was though. Better than mine, I suspect!
  20. I'm on the video too! 12secs in, behind the blue M135i, as he pulls away I'm the next car up
  21. Thank Christ for that. Hopefully Maldonado will leave the sport now.
  22. Because it's about the thrill of the drive, not lap times or top speed. It's why a Clio can be better than an Aston, or why a Veyron has never won.
  23. Saw at least half a dozen NLMs (No Light Mongs) on the way in this morning. 'Tards.

    Without O2 extenders, built-in or screw-in, you will be setting the CEL off. Yes you can reset it, but would you really want to do that every single time you drive? O2 extenders are a must have with decats.
