Morning everyone.
Encountered another, much less amusing, glitch on Need For Speed: Shift last night: during the World Series part of the NFS Championships, as I was entering the final race with an almost insurmountable lead (needing to finish approximately 6th or higher to win) and loading the Nurburgring track...it suddenly quit to the XMB for absolutely no reason. Nearly an hour of gameplay wasted right there. Needless to say I wasn't particularly happy about it.

Morning everyone, woke up this morning and its like an ice rink outside. All the snow has got slushy from the rain and frozen over with the cold. Late for work after taking a tumble outside my front door and getting all wet, poor show.
Still only 2 more to go before the weekend and Ive got Monday off as well so might go buy a game or something to keep me amused.

Tried to claim some time owed to me last night from work. Claimed 30 minutes and worked an extra 40, so seem to have gained 10 minutes. I doubt I'll be able to get it back and if I do, it will be spent on the bus in some sort of problem.
Last week when I tried, there was a huge accident on the Bristol Ring Road, meaning I was home later than if I had left at usual time and last night, some yob decided it was funny to throw a brick at the windscreen of the bus, causing it to smash. Of course, the bus was stopped and again, got home flippin' later than usual. I seem to be working lates and not seeing any of the benefits - I wish I was just paid for it...

Don't worry about autoplay - I tend to open the tray to turn the console on now. And sign in issues come and sign im issues go. You'll find it'll be fine soon! I tend to find auto sign in on to XBL annoying anyway, I want to play my singleplayer campaign in piece without 6 game invited in the first 2 seconds of switching the console on!

Cold and drizzly today, so not much change from the rest of the week.
Taking my old MP3 player in to CEX so I can get some blu-rays. Hopefully they have something decent.
So tempted to go and get an iPhone on contract but I hate the idea of being stuck in a £35 a month contract (plus whatever it costs for insurance) for 24 months.

Nintendo European Gamers Summit at 10:30, they should announce the UK date for Mario Galaxy and the new Metriod among others.

I have 360, PS3 and Wii games all unplayed or barely played at the moment. I also have PS2, original Xbox and Gamecube games I haven't played or finished. Add some PC games and DS and PSP games and my list is a mile long.
EDIT = Also just found out that Mario Galaxy 2 is out on May 23rd in the States. Make what you will out of that.

Xbox is having teething problems again. Games are running fine, but if i leave a game in the disc tray, it automatically loads it up, regardless of the fact i've disabled autoplay. Also has problems signing my profile in if there's no disc in the tray for some reason. I actually hate the console now, but i've no other alternative gaming method.

Snap! Although I sold my PS3 a few months back - dunno if one game will be reason enough for the wife to let me buy another one. Quite fancy MAG as well though.
