Nintendo takes control with next-gen games console

PS3 Fanboy alert

Steve, Please go back to pleasuring yourself with your PS3.

Chris Harrison
Thumb Up

Remember the Xbox 1?

Yes I agree, that controller seems a tad large. Perhaps they should provide a seperate smaller one for games that don't take advantage of the screen.

I remember microsoft supplying japan with a different controller for the xbox so that could hold them in their tiny little hands. You think nintendo would know better.

Brit censor stamps on The Human Centipede

Chris Harrison
WTF?

Who made you god?

If you don't like them, then don't watch them, or is that too difficult?

As to IQs and horror, I like a good bit of gore and a few scares and could join Mensa tomorrow. (BTW its Last house on the LEFT).

I'm far more worried about people with narrow minds than people with low IQs.

Microsoft reveals revamped Xbox dashboard

Chris Harrison
WTF?

Really threatened aren't we?

Either you have an strange unhealthy interest in something you don't own, or you're a PS3 fanboy still trying to justify your purchase.

Whichever it is, its really quite pathetic isn't it?

Brit expats aghast as Denmark bans Marmite

Chris Harrison
FAIL

Now I understand

@jonathanb - Ok so you don't like marmite.

I don't like tomatos and bannanas screw up my digestive system. Perhaps I should ask for those to be banned.

Chris Harrison
Unhappy

Applaud it?

Why would 50% applaud it?

Surely marmite being legal doesn't mean you have to buy it?

Next you'll be saying that if there is smut on TV you are forced to watch it.

Money grabbing bastards (the american govt that is)

Gotta love the american government. Why don't they just make it illegal for any of their 'free' citizens to buy foreign products or spend any money abroad while they're at it. Can't have any of those dollars going overseas can we? Oh sorry I forgot, this law was brought in to protect the us citizens wasn;t it?

Judgemental moi?

The great thing about the '110%' concept is that as soon as someone uses it you can simply disregard anything they ever say.

Marketing opportunity

Any possiblity of the email addresses of those who took part?

I'm sure I could sell at least one of them a porta-loo in which they could travel into the future.

There are stupider things to believe in

Considering how many people believe in an invisible beardy bloke who lives in the clouds and loves us, these seem quite reasonable things to believe in to me.

"An Athiest has a FAITH - albeit a faith that there is nothing"

Sorry, but thats just bollox. A lack of faith is not a faith in itself.

There are an infinate number of things that you or I don't believe in.

The fact that you don't believe that purple turnips orbit the moon doesn't mean you have a faith does it?

Game offers pre-orders on pre-owned titles

Chris Harrison
Unhappy

Just say no, Kids.

I wouldn't 'sell' my old games to game on principle. Their markup is incredible, and as another poster has noted, this market sucks money out of the game industry.

I wasn't aware that the police randomly visited people and checked out the contents of their bookshelves, so there must be more to this story.

Multiple Universes

Perhaps he's managed to harness the power of the multiple universe theory and simply picks the one where the goldfish all do exactly as he wants.

Unfortunatelly he hasn't thought of anything better to do with the power.

Paris because, we know what she's doing in pretty much all those parrallel universes.

Stroppy Belgian students in Ryanair mutiny

Chris Harrison
Unhappy

Most seem to be missing the point here.

Surely what this article is saying is that, with most airlines you're either on time or late and you miss the plane, but with Ryan air if you're late you can still board if the price is right.

The idea of being told I've missed my flight, but if I dip my hand in my pocket and empty my wallet they'll find a way to get me on board is quite a revolting form of customer service.

Basically these are the rules, unless we can get a bit more money out of you.

Fifa to give goal-line tech a shot

Chris Harrison
Pint

How about a simple solution for a change?

Considering how long it takes to calm the players and restart the game after a questionable decision a maximum delay of 1 second seems a little unneccessary. Two cameras in the top corners of the goal should do it, along with some bloke and a rewind button.

Its not rocket science is it?

Anyway, beer because its almost the weekend.

2011 Games Preview

Chris Harrison
WTF?

On the other hand...

"Anyone that calls themselves a gamer in 2011 and does not own a PS3 is lame."

Though not as lame as someone who would post such a comment .

Whenever I read posts such as yours I'm left wondering - Are you really so insecure about owning a PS3 that you have to troll the web looking for positive comments on your purchase and then reposting them?

Who are you trying to convince?

Xbox 360 outsells PS3 2:1

Chris Harrison

Its always next year.

Since the day the PS3 came to market, its been 'next year is the PS3's year'. Its quite laughable - I've never understood why so many people fail to understand that we the consumers need a tight fight between the consoles. I have a wii, XBox360, and PS2 under my TV and I don't want any company to 'win' the war.

As to the kinect being a blip, that does depend on the games, but I don't think any of the three consoles motion based control systems are really up to scratch for anything beyond novelty gaming. They'll probably go the same way that I predict for the current 3d TVs - interesting technology but no killer app.

The wii may suffer a little in the marketplace, but I don't think many people are going to be trading in their wii for either move or kinect.

Chris Harrison

Sony Fanbois make me laugh.

Lot's of nice excuses above from the sony faithful.

So MS are doing well here cos X360 is cheap, nope its because kinect is more expensive. or is it that sony aren't selling because they're sold out.

Get a grip.

Are you all really that insecure about your purchase?

Police chief: Yes, my plods sometimes forget photo laws

Chris Harrison
FAIL

WTF?

"Just a thought but perhaps 'The Register' is overreacting to these issues? The Police do a fair job in difficult circumstances most of the time. Photography can cause all sorts of problems, and presumably raises difficulties for the Policeman on the beat."

Exactly what is difficult about the circumstances when you walk passed someone pointing a camera at nelsons column for instance? Photography only causes problems when you point a camera at a person who doesn't want it pointed at them, and how often do the police come across that, except for celebs?

One day I hope the police stop you in your car and arrest you've because you've got a sticker in your window. Of course they won't be sure if its illegal or not, but better safe than sorry.

She paid for a card, and she's got a card, so what's she moaning about?

It's not as if she can demand that anyone else shows theirs after all.

Paris because she's not to shy too show hers.

So I guess if instead of nazis or whoever we have zombies, they wouldn't care? Is it only 'realistic' games that must be within the 'virtual' law?

Or perhaps next they'll be saying how pacman is cruel because eating ghosts is against their non-human rights.

Yeah come on. If thats really the defence then microsoft should be sitting pretty.

You willing to tell a judge you had your xbox modded just so you could use backups cos those game discs fail so often and they're so expensive to replace!

I guess you backup your dvds too.

If you really want to go down that 'the universe is complex and must have been created' route then good luck - i'll give you a clue to where it leads though - how complex must god be to have made the universe?

Joined up thinking - again

I assume that no car manufactuer is planning to sell a single hybrid car in the UK next year?

This is exactly the same as what happened when they mentioned they 'may' stop collecting stamp duty and then didn't - it caused the housing market to stall completely while everyone waited.

Is anyone going to risk buying one if they could wait and get a discount of 5K?

Google AdWords: 11 herbs and spices revealed

Chris Harrison

Nothing to see here ....

I thought it was always clear that the more successful your ads were at getting clicks, the cheaper you could place them, hence the practice of paying a lot per ad at the start of a campaign and then as you wittled down the ads to the most successful version you could lower the bid too.
