EA’s Virtual Bond will star in many more of his own games.
Roger Moore was the world’s first ‘virtual actor’.
Snowboarding is no more a sport than synchronised swimming, a dog was heard to say.
Shaun Palmer is so into Chevrolets that he’s had the name tattooed about his person - and not where you’d think.
Despite it’s board on snow simplicity, snowboarding is one of the most expensive sports in the world - at least, if you live in Bahrain.
Messing around with big swords, sticks and anchors can be hazardous to your health.
Another dangerous activity is listening to your radio in the bath, whilst the device is perched perilously on the edge of the tub.
Yet another risky act involves waking up and listening to Sara Cox as she host her ‘hilarious’ breakfast-shows. As above, this involves a radio.
Dropship was delayed due to the events on Sept 11th, as were Metal gear 2 and Twisted Metal Black.
All objects in the universe exert an equal but opposite force on each other.
Some girls do and some girl’s don’t.
Doughnut Monster just can’t.
Game ratings are getting lower and lower. We must be really ready for the new ideas those developers are hiding away.
Awwww, come on..... what have you got to lose? Money? Bwa Ha Haaaaar.....
No, I mean it. We shouldn’t have to live in Japan to experience Suzuki Bakuhatsu sans import prices. And I'm rubbish at languages. No fair!
French is one of the oldest languages in existence. It was invented way back in the summer of 1983, when a young man called Patrick gargled the word ‘jambon’ whilst having his stomach pumped outside a roller disco.
Ignore the lesson given by the heroes of Silent Scope 2 - it’s really a bad idea to storm a base full of machine-gun toting maniacs armed with a sniper rifle.
Taking a mullet along won’t help your case either....
.... in fact, I'd have to suggest adorning yourself with a tank instead. They’re more fashionable than the said haircut and you could always snipe from inside if you have a penchant for inappropriate weaponry.
You can cut a worm in half and both ends will live.
The same can’t be said for cats.
Cats aren’t good for catching fish.
Grenades are.
According to the Institute of Advanced Motoring, 9/10 drivers consider their driving skills above average. The same sample also stated a belief that driving standards had fallen in general.
Half of them then failed a mock driving test. Be very afraid folks. There be many over-inflated egos driving around in these parts.
Natbuc recently went for a dose of gene therapy.
They played Gene Autry’s entire collection of yodelling hits to him at full volume.
They now expect Nat’s family line to be born without ears.
Despite rumours to the contrary, the WWF does not encourage wild pandas to fight against each other in tights.
American kids were banned from wearing Bart Simpson t-shirts to school for fear of anti-social behaviour.
I believe that the events in Half-Life were based on a similar situation that happened ten years ago at a cheese factory in Cheddar, England.
Crash Bandicoot was originally designed to compete with SEGA and Nintendo’s Sonic ‘no prisoners’ the Hedgehog and Mario ‘your goin down’ Brown.
To smuggle something means to transport an illicit item without the authorities getting hold of it...
... which makes Smuggler’s Run 2 title a bit non-sensical. The law is all too aware of what you’re up to!
Still, can’t complain - a game about showing your passport and smiling wouldn’t have had quite the same appeal. Well, maybe in Japan.
Rabbits, much like fish, feel no pain.
Guns are illegal in Japan.
Jumping on monsters heads to reach higher places was common activity until stairs were invented.
FIFA does not stand for Frogs In Fierce Armour.
But it should.
Wipeout’s original advertising campaign, featuring 2 mong-faced mooks was criticised for it’s apparent promotion of drug culture.
A connection between Quake 3 Revolution and a trio of rampaging scousers has yet to be established.
To paraphrase some old Chinese proverb or the other, ‘Don’t be afraid of the dark, be afraid of what’s in it.’
Other popular Chinese saying’s include ‘I am not as green as i am cabbage looking.’
And of course ‘Nip down to Asda and get and get me a crate of Stella and, cheers mate.’
Adding ice to Bailey’s really does make it a completely different drink.
It is better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it.
Time Crisis 2 was used to train Belgian soldiers, not in warfare but making cakes.
Silent Hill 2’s creatures were animated by hand to make sure their motion didn’t look too natural.
The same can be said for me when generous amounts of Shandy are donated.
There is more than one way to skin a cat. Pro Evo favours the spinning technique, which leaves the intestines untouched.
The word ‘Soccer’ was invented for Americans after they foolishly realised they had named their own national sport football even though you don’t use your feet in it.
The worlds first skateboards were wooden scooters with the handles removed.
Thus a thousand clothing labels were created.
I now have a flamethrower. Ho, ho, ho!
Eden is Grix’s least favourite perfume - remember that when buying him presents.
Running around the Eden project with a gun shouting ‘follow me’ will get you arrested. (Clever gun though)
Most vehicles can be destroyed by a single missile strike, as Malibu can testify.
Michael caine was born Maurice Mickelwhite and was the son of a charlady and a fishmonger. Not a lot of people know that.
On the second Saturday of every month the SR team gather round and make a sacrifice to ‘Old Nick’.
If your worried, Old Nick isn’t the devil, but the man that fills up the office vending machines.
The sacrifices are only occasionally living, ranging from fish to little boys. The rest of the time it consists of cheese and crackers.
