"Newsround - Out of Date"

Whilst watching Newsround, they were commenting that some games were actually good for you as they build up how you think strategically and are almost as good as chess. But why did they have to show a guy playing a Megadrive? The clip didnt even look old... Strange. Perhaps they dont want to be seen promoting one console more than another, but thats what the guy on BBC's gamestation does. It is PS2 this PS2 that. Bloody fanboy...

For good reason.

It was a big fat sh*tfest.

Yeah, I agree. Digitiser is much better, even if they did give StarFox Adventures a REALLY bad review. At least they know what they're talking about, produce it well, and update us on the latest news, dailly (excluding Sunday's).

I switch on Ceefax on C4 every morning/late evening just to check it out.

Well he lives up to his name doesn't he? He's a true GIBBON!

Anyway, Digitiser on C4 page 175-179 is much better and side splittingly funny. I don't know how they do it. I laugh out loud every time I read it and my parents just gives me confused looks saying, "What? What's so funny?"

They'll never understand.

My mobile phone bill was £90 last month....

But i do use it for work...

If I ever want to speak to someone who's quite far-away, then I always send them a text-message. I never phone them, that's just me.

I only ever phone people if I really have to, like when I ask for some help in the SR Bugs and Customer Service forum, and they always tell me to "Ring this number..."

And even if I was to phone someone, I wouldn't do it on my mobile.
It'd cost way-too-much, too-quickly!
Much cheaper to get home and use the land-line.

Looking at my phone now...
My "All Call's Duration" is: "00.09.34", and I've had this phone since Christmas. All my Dialled Calls have lasted about 4.5 minutes, and it's roughly the same for all Incoming Calls. I've got quite a few messages still in my Inbox though.

My last-call lasted only 8-seconds - and that was earlier today when I phoned-home to get a lift home off my mum. It was basiclly "Hi... - ....Bye."


Oh, and back to the subject here....
I hate Dave Gibbon too! Barely even ONCE does he even mention the word "GameCube"! And he also told someone looking for Shenmue II to look-on Amazon, where it's priced at around £60, brand-new!

If you are reffering to using a home phone then I would do If i had access and if you mean phone from my phone then you should know i can hardly state 3 situations like i normally do in a text message in 5 seconds which is what 10p would get me.

Depends what tariff you're on, most of the ones I know talking for a minute is cheaper than a text

For 4p you could maybe talk for 6 seconds.

Yup

Lets send 2 lines of txt crp for 10p

Or ring someone and talk properly for about 4p

Yup
