Re: Then we all saw the cost to watch it........

exactly my thoughts on this film. I took a look at this yesterday on Xbox live nd stopped when I saw the price. 540 points (or thereabouts) for a film whose funniest line appears to be 'I'm going for a shit'!

for the same money I can rent Skyfall on XBL.

drop the price to a nominal 100 points and maybe people will be interested enough to take the risk of wasting time, money and bandwidth watching it.

Thumb Down

but nothing in the UK

went into London a week or so ago and was visually assaulted by adverts for the surface but not a sign of it on Tottenham court road, oxford street, or any where else.

mail order only in the UK must = fail!

Warped space? That's a Kilngon Bird of Prey decloaking!

WTF?

"Continued declined in the music games genre"

Say What????

Rock Band 3 seems to be going from strength to strength with massive demand for the keyboard and now the new Squeir real string midi interfaced guitar hitting the UK in April.

Maybe it's just those music games that failed to evolve?

Cool pun on this seen on another site "Guitar Hero Cancelled - Reason to fret?"

Unhappy

Captive audiences get hammered

Health issues aside (I'm not going to live forever so give me access to my emails while I am here) this points to a growing trend of offering free WiFi to punters you want to draw in (pubs, coffee houses, burger bars etc.) but stick it to the customer when they are a captive audience (trains, planes, airport pubs(that offer free WiFi on the other side of the customs barrier)).

Four pounds for checking your emails! Bastards.

How Much!!!!

On a trip up to Edinburgh to see the Fringe one of the Scottish trains offered free WiFi!!!

Man that's expensive, nice to see though that 1st class passengers who could afford to pay it will get it free! Cattle class gets shafted again.
