@Illundiel: Nah, all the messages pertain to graffiti in-game.

@The_Red: In all fairness, if the game doesn't require an engine upgrade (and really, AA looked pretty swish to my eyes), sequels are fine, so long as adequate attention is paid to the story which seems likely given the time they spent setting it up in AA.

@Chowderholic: www.xbox.com/banhammer one would assume. Now compatible with the Zune HD too!

@Steven Olsen: Easier to surround your enemies. Only takes 6 squads to box someone in, rather than 8 :p

@Dnyde: Endorsed...BY THE HORDE!!

Nothing on this EU account so far. I'll check back in the morning, when the Blizz-EU staff aren't snoozing. Any other EUers gotten in?

@psychiccheese: Just curious if you're using the new Avast! 5 or not because I'm having trouble getting it recognised by just about everything, let alone this app. My university's VPN went absolutely nuts when I first used it after upgrading.

Any half way decent Web Filter sniffs out proxies very easily. Trust me, if your IT Dept. is serious enough about filtering the web, there is nothing you will be able to do to get around it.

@bakagaijin: You mean like you can do right now?

If I get the chance, Ninja Gaiden 2. It's been sitting in the cellophane wrap since January 9th and it's begging me to slice up some fools.

@B: That's the Mario franchise as a whole, from Bros. to World, to Galaxy. Basically everything that has Mario in the title.

@nantukoprime: When Arkham Asylum was announced, I was sceptical. Superhero games have a bad history of being utter dross and with the exception of the Spiderman games (which while not perfect or that well loved by all, made me a very happy bunny.) I can't recall one that has ever stuck in my mind as good.

We recently left Super Mario Galaxy on for a full five days because my flatmate had accumulated 99 lives and didn't want to lose them. So it stayed on til we had EVERY star.

I'll be sure to keep #6 in mind for when I'm working in a lab. My kid will have super-powers and Doc Ock arms before their 10th birthday!

The store I work in has a minimum transaction value for a credit card/debit transaction: 1p. By which I mean, you need to buy something. Still frustrates people who want to use my till like an ATM though.

VOTE: DVD::Rip for Ubuntu.

@elgilicious: As I pull into my nearly 2 years at the most miserable little supermarket, it may be the case that plenty of American students can afford to have a throwaway job, in Britain it's a different kettle of fish.

@fuchikoma: At least EVE ISK isn't worth quite as much as PED is. And a competent EVE player can earn enough ISK to increase his own stockpile and to buy the "Pilot Licences" which amount to a month worth of game time, meaning you can essentially play for free if you put in the effort or have a decent production…

@icedrake523: Apologies, but I still just can't justify the cost of a PS3. While LittleBigPlanet is awesome and I'm sure UC2 is pretty cool, two games have yet to make me want to shell out £300 for one.

I must wholeheartedly disagree here. There are two reasons Batman is my GOTY (or at least one of them) and apart from what felt like a rather good Batman story, the Predator/Silent Knight aspects of it are what made me RELISH being put in a room full of thugs and shadows.
