  1. This game hasn't been released anywhere but in Japan :grumble: , but all the review say its great.

    So for those with a DS flash card or an emulator, here's a link to a translated hack,

    All of the story is translated apart from a glossary I think.

    You need the game rom to patch, but I wouldn't know where to get that from :angel:

    Rumor: EA Sending Need for Speed to Junkyard

    By Owen Good, 3:00 PM on Sat Dec 13 2008, 4,046 views

    The Electric Playground's show on Friday reported that Electronic Arts has cancelled development of new titles in its Need for Speed franchise. An EA spokesman gave a generic response that did not dispel the rumor.

    Electronic Playground did not name its source. Reached for comment, EA said: "We're working through a process on people, products, and facilities at EA and don't have any announcements today." That's no defense for a franchise that goes back to 1994, so, it sounds like something's up.

    Need for Speed: Undercover released to very unenthusiastic reviews, to put it charitably. It was one of the titles named by analysts in this week's news that holiday sales would be sharply lower than expected, news that sent the publisher's stock into a dive. EA CEO John Riccitello said the company would cut titles from its "bottom levels of profitability," which exempts EA's sports catalogue.

    EA-owned Black Box Studios is the home of NFS. But it also develops FIFA, NBA Live, NHL and others for EA. Correction, that is EA Canada. EA Black Box makes Need for Speed and Skate. Killing NFS would be a serious blow.

  3. And then you have the Irish system where the two main parties Fianna Fail and Fine Gael are both right wing and aren't that much different from one another in policies. While the other parties like Labour, Sinn Fein and the Green Party are pointless because they have to compromise their own beliefs and hop into bed with one of the big two, which is what happened with both labour and the Greens. And Sinn Fein are outcasts because of links with the Provo's. And the Progressive Democrats only won 2 seats in the last elections so they have closed the party becuase they don't feel it viable anymore.

    I don't know who I am going to vote for in the next election, although it won't be any of those parties
