Is this the most annoying thing in the world, ever?
I'm on page 100. I want to go to page 110. I type in 110. 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 120? Then you watch it count up slowly to around 600. Ah ha, it's gone to 101 again ... 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109 111 AHHHHHHHH
Help me :(

After years of surfing the wibblywobblyweb, every time I go back to Teletext I think it's very fast.

Digitiser ruled...

I think it's ``480'' on c4. Bah, i checked it about a month ago, and it was a shadow of how it used to be i recall. Surely someone else here used to enjoy reading digi?

God, Digitiser, that takes me back...

Must be at least ten years since I looked at that. How times change.

I still do read Digitiser occasionally. Tis a good read when they aren't rambling on about how much they think PS2 sucks. It's all fine by me having that opinion, but to repeat it every day for a year gets kinda dull.

OMG Digitiser, I managed to get my cheat displayed on there. Was about OutRun on the Atari ST.

Yes, but it's true, and they need to ram it into blinkered fools who believe it's a good console. ;)

Yes. I am totally blinkered for thinking the PS2 is the best console availible. I mean all those PS2 games that got into Gamespot's best of 2001! I guess they must be blinkered too!

I once read there have been another two updates to teletext but TV manufacturers don't use the updated chips :(

I used to play bambozle too. There was also a game on there that was supposed to be like that knightmare, the one with kid in the helmet and his friends had to guide him.

I bought a playstation 2 the other day just so that I could play grand theft auto3 and devil may cry. Might chuck it in the cupboard for my X box when I get it, god I love being rich.

occasionally read the teeny messageboards on Teletext/Ceefax, mainly cause you get some 12 year old goit trying to explain how manufactured bands are good, and then someone else saying how crap they are, and then admitting to liking SlipKnot...

ahhh, afternoons ill on the sofa are so more rewarding with Teletext... maybe we should all buy TV tuner cards so we can browes teletext instead of the web...

It'll never capture the true magic (and cheesiness) of the 1st.

The dragon ride at the end of Knightmare 0wned everything in the universe. Ever.

True, it was made in the end by the US Sci Fi channel.

But the Beeb were showing it here IIRC before it got gobbled up by the UK Sci Fi channel.
