You guys finally woke up? I've been up since 8.

I did some guessing and found that 70% of Wii owners have only one game.

Sony and Microsoft can bring these out as extras, but Nintendo can't suddenly make the Wii have better graphics.

Morning all - feeling miles better today so back at work.

Had lots of questions to confirm that I didn't have the norovirus ;) I think I escaped that nasty bug with a slightly less angry one. Still, felt like rubbish most of yesterday.

2 days until the weekend!

Morning.

Ah yes, it's obvious motion gaming doesn't work. Just look at the poor sales of the Wii... :)

Sony and MS are thinking: Why do we want people to go get a Wii as well as our console to experience motion gaming when we could do that AS WELL as what we already have. Sounds fair to me. They never said every 360/PS3 owner HAS to buy it, just those who want it.

Anyway, half way through Lost episode 8, will have to watch the rest on the bus tonight.

Yet another idea to get gamers to move. When are companies going to realise that if gamers wanted to excercise and move about, they'll:

1.Get a beer
2.Go the toilet
3.Go outside

The Wii is little more than a gimmick and I doubt the Sony & M$ rip off versions will be much different.These are intially fun but get boring very quickly,just like the Eye Toy did on the PS2.They can be a bit of fun with your mates when you're hammered though.

On the subject of console add ons,why is there not a web browser available for the Xbox 360 ?.The console has pretty much made it's name from being an online machine.Other console's have one then why not the 360 ?.Think you can do it by linking your PC up it but most people can't be bothered setting that up.

Quite pleased with Carphone Warehouse, my iphone Invisible Shield skin wasn't all that good (I've put on a few before so I know what I'm doing) so went in there to show them without the box.

Guy on the counter took one look and ran a replacement through the till, they didn't have any in stock so he got it sent in the post. Came today and I've just put it on. Looks so much better than the last one.

UFC 2009 is one of the few demos I've downloaded and kept for more than 2 weeks, the other being Left for Dead 2.

Hoping you don't end up with an experience like at my house, with our Sky connection. It's bloody awful. I can't remember the last time it went a day without disconnecting at least twice. Apparently the firmware they make you use on the box that they give you doesn't handle noise margins properly, so it's just a case of put up with it.[/rant]

In other, better , news. 2292 words and 14 figures later, my lab report is finally completed. So that's me done for the term now. Got UFC 2009 on the way at the moment, but got it sent home, so won't be able to play until I get back, should be interesting, though.
