Yer, saw that myself while in town yesterday. And also could be bothered to buy it either!

Not sure why, just not in the mood to buy it at the moment.

Heh

I've just been into my local town to look around, and found nothing decent to buy. There was Soul Calibur 2 for Gamecube for £20, but I didn't feel like getting it for some unknown reason.

Ah well, might as well preorder Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow soon. T'will rock on Xbox Live.

grrr!

Annoying bugs!

Ironed out most issues, but have just created another. When kicking, it slightly knocks the character to the side when repositioning the character. After kicking a bunch of times, you end up not facing the other character.

grrr-argh

I'm sure there's a simple explanation.

Perhaps a thoughtfull visit to the bathroom might enlighten me! Normally does! lol

Like Evil, I had some mates over today. Played some Timesplitters 2, which reminded me just how fantastic the game really is. The multiplayer is so fast paced compared to Goldeneye and Halo, and there are barely any signs of slowdown ever.

Virus has to be one of the best multiplayer modes ever invented. Fast, and indeed, very furious. Especially when you use the snowman.

'I'm melting' squealed like some 10 year kid never gets old ;)

Also, we played some SSX3 on my Xbox. My mate has it on the PS2 and was often saying how something or rather wasn't there in the PS2 version. But I was decidedly p!ssed off when he beat me at it a few times. I managed to c*ck up almost every race. I'm normally pretty decent at it as well I tell yer...

Jenn's mouse constantly squeeking it really starting to get on my nerves!

....

Just took a screwdriver to it, and it seems a bit better now. Let's just hope it stays that way!!!

What's better is when you tape your mate playing it with a digital camera so you can't see the TV, so it looks like he's just waving his arms around and it's making kung-fu sounds, and you then show the video to someone who doesn't know what an EyeToy is. Tiss rather ammusing!

Good to hear it.
So is it one of those pubs with rubbish skittles/bowling lanes in? I was never sure if they really existed :^D

You don't know her but hate her? Maybe a little harsh!

I know what you mean though. I always used to think I was ugly, and still do a bit, in a way, but increasingly I think it's mostly just about confidence. And a decent hair-cut.
But if you're confident and hold yourself well it'll make up for most flaws, I think.
Doing it is another thing entirely though :^)

It's hard to know what someone's thinking when they look at you like that. I figure the best way is probably to strike up a conversation...
And if you get the chance with someone, go for it!

I'd expect most places would offer you a debit card. A credit card could be less likely, but since you can't go overdrawn on a switch, I can't see why you wouldn't get one.

My advice would be to go into a bank and ask them. Just ask to go speak to someone about opening an account, then ask if you can have a switch card with it, and if so, sign up.
I'm 90% certain they will let you have one. A lot of their published information about these things isn't always very clear, probably because of all the technicalities and exceptions they have to point out, but if you ask, you'll probably get.

I can recommend HSBC. I've never had any problems with them. Though most major banks will likely be just as good.

That's where I got it from. Might change it again soon though...
