  1. I agree with Jack, it wasn't meant for the US market, so who cares.

    KW, that comment about not putting something local/regional on the internet is just plain stupid. There are so many colloquial words, sayings and observations that offend some and not others. But even if you don't mean everything, just marketing and promotions, are you saying that every marketing and PR company should have a complete list of every sensitive topic in ALL 196 countries around the world? So no posters to have train explosions out of respect for London Underground. No posters of plane crashes out of respect for the THREE recent ones. No posters of capsized cruise ships for the Italians and Koreans. And what date is the cut off date for when we can use imagery again? Should we ban any poster that features a car crash because it could offend the family of victims?

  2. I spent money on Watch Dogs and so far it's disappointed me. It's another in a chain of gamesmovies/tv shows with a great idea, but poorly executed. The protagonist has zero likability, I just don't care about him or his motives. And they must have know this, as they've jammed a sister/nephew in the story to make me feel something. I'm playing just to get my money back and to see if it's building to something.

    I should have just got GTA out of the bargain bin!

  3. Man talk about two contrasting games, I felt watching NED vs ARG that they were both almost just holding position until the penalties. Argentina won't be anywhere near as careless/stupid as Brazil in defense. That said, I'm sticking with the Germans, should be a fantastic match on Monday (our time) though.

  4. Has anyone bought one of these? I'm considering it, but I'm not sure what the titles are that make it worth it. Plus it will mean I will upgrade my TV as well, which I have nill interest in doing.

  5. We're the Millers-hokey and eye-rolling at times, but overall pretty fucking funny. Aniston is incredible in this movie. She has serious comedy chops and looks incredibly hot.

    Agree, she should definitely look for more of this kind of thing. I loved the bit where they played the alternate song on the radio.

  6. Finally went back to his and finished. I stand by my too many side stories thing. I got tot the end of the game and was only at about 35-40% completion . Whic. Are me think I hadn't really got to the end, but of course what else could the end be.

    Pretty meh in he end I thought.

  7. Looking for 2 recommendations .

    For my girlfriend, a music podcast based in the UK. She loves All Songs Considered with Bob Oilen from NPR, but none of the BBC ones have really appealed to her, so if anyone has some suggestions, that would be great.

    I'd also love an NFL one that only goes for 30-40 minutes or so.
