patentdragon...is the Wii going to be the real winner of the Console Wars? I gave some thought to buying a Gamecube at one point, and if the latest Nintendo console comes out at an appealing price, I could just be convinced. *Update* £179? If there's a good range of games for it, and an early price trim... well, we'll have to see.
...I'm getting really sick of Sky adverts bleating on about "ooooh, look - we've got the third season of Lost!" I would much rather save the money I'd spend on Sky subscriptions and hardware, and spend that on the DVDs when they come out... and a new DVD player... and a new TV...
...oh, the wonders of Pakistani Sharia "justice". A UK citizen, found not guilty of murder in a proper court but sentenced to death in a Sharia court, flies back into the UK a shadow of his former self after Prince Charles intervenes - just days after proposed changes in the Sharia rape laws which mean the victim doesn't have to have four witnesses, or face charges of adultery. Oh yes, Islam is just so civilised...
On The Other Hand... the "special event" for The Darkhawk Diaries is now picking up speed, with three story-threads, from different view-points, now in progress - AND an idea is blossoming for the "aftermath". Coming soon!
