I've opened it. Not a spec of dust, no scratches, no finger prints and all the advertising leaflets still inside. Relieved isn't the word.

Over a decade of work, that's dedication. Well done mate. Well worth the wait.

Thought I'd come for a visit. So, yeah.

Still about mate. Just a bit less internet time. Found this thing called a door and outside is... outside.

It's not that big a change. Far from radical. Taking away my phoenix theme was radical. I still miss it.

Never seen anything like this before. North Korea exposes the west. Just after 5:30 made me laugh when it starts talking about teenagers.

I forgot all about this thread. Had to get rid of the Peugeot after some problems. Stupid simple things like air flow meters breaking and no one supplying them anymore. Constant headache and a money pit. Shame.

I've picked up an E36 BMW for £390 on Ebay not so long ago. It's not much to look at but for the money it's in pretty good shape. I'm saving for a holiday at the moment so won't be buying anything soon. When I do I don't know what I'll go for. I keep thinking about another Golf. Half of me wants the R32 but the other half of me is too sensible and want a TDi. Plenty of time to think about it though.

I stuck my elbow in the back of a women's head today at work and made her cry. Is it wrong that I'm actually quite satisfied? I can't stand the bitch.

Neo Geo CD.

AES/MVS is the most talked about Neo Geo Systems. The CD just took those games and made them cheaper and easier to get for the most part. Sure it had load time issues. Only using I believe was a 1X rom drive. I think Saturn and PSone used 2X. However those systems also had 3D games while the CD was just porting the AES/MVS games. So was a bit frustrating. Still because the games are cheaper at about 50$ as opposed to 200-300$ for the carts. One nice thing I liked is for people who preferred a controller over an arcade stick they included that as well but had no dpad. It had what looked like an analog stick but really was a mini swither arcade stick for the thumb. They also used this on the Neo Geo Hand Helds. The system still worked with the arcade sticks.It did have a few exclusives in KoF 96 and SS RPG. The main selling point is price and today for collectors who are not smoking 100$ bills it's still the cheaper option. It's not super cheap either but no one ever said collecting was cheap.

Got mine with a couple of games, boxed with all cables and instructions for £120. Ignore what people say about load times, they're not that long, no different to a system of today. Games aren't that expensive either, prices start from around £15. And yes, the pads with the little sticks are awesome.

On Sunday I'm having a few people round for a couple of hours of Perfect Dark on N64. I've promised not to get any practice in but I'm tempted.

One of the best documentaries on the state I've seen so far. Really worth watching.

Except me.

My current car.

http://oi39.tinypic.com/15zyw3.jpg

E36 318is, 1.9 16 valve. Got it for £390 off ebay. Had it for nearly a year now and it's close to death. Needs bushes on the back and needs an O2 sensor. Badly needs a service, oil is the worst I've ever seen. Exhaust rattles as well.

Just can't be bothered to fix it and it's got loads of MOT left so I'll probably just run it into the floor.

Fancy a Type R next, Civic or Integra I don't mind.


This is my mates track car. He's never won anything but love seeing it go round the track.

It's a Ford Anglia shell. The engine is a Ford 2.0 cross flow with a single carb. Went on the rolling road and returned 160bhp. Not an amazing figure but all the cars on the track run around the same power.

That gag would have been hilarious if you guys hadn't actually gotten a room together at the Good ol' Gen2Gen Inn. Hope you used lube for the arse chaffing!

Lube? No, you just spit on it. Phlegm helps.

but according to murata , sega isn't involved it this new game, it's a project of suzuki's company.

Maybe he is sending a message to his fans, SEGA may be stopping him from making statements. Maybe he is trying to prove to SEGA the franchise is still alive. Maybe he is testing waters. OR, maybe, just maybe, he is laughing at us very very hard with the rest of SEGA.

I know which one my money is on.

Yakuza is for fags like you real men prefer Shenmue ;)

I'd love a friendly debate but at least try to act like your over 10.

Never played Yakuza but I'm getting the third. From what I've seen they only have a few similarities. Why compare them? And why act like girls?
