I thought small arms was rubbish myself. Its not really a dead or alive game and not worms. At least its original and doesnt look too bad graphics wise :p

hehe, I played Small arms alot yesterday. Met quite a few americans with a intelligence level of zero.

random guy: So kayniel, you're from europe, eh?
Me: yep
random guy: are you french?
Me: Nah, danish
random guy: ah, so you're from the Netherlands

and then I had to explain where most of his bacon are coming from :p

the game may feel a bit random the first few times you're playing it, but it gets better once you've got the hang of it. It's the best arcade game so far imo :)

jesus man how many games have you got :p

I'm stocking up on them might be off work for abit soon so got stuff to keep me busy :D

On a shite note my Viva Pinata still hasn't arrived and i can't see it coming tomorrow. I'm just wondering if its worth getting in touch with the local post office like you said in that email.

But how the fuck are they going to find it when it has no tracking number etc. I'll wait till Monday because when i ordered FEAR from Play-Asia they dispatched on a Monday and it came the following Tuesday, so i think mail that comes from other countrys is shit round my area.

I paid £24 which is pretty much standard, if you can buy for less than grab it fast.

I still can't believe they released a demo of this. It is so bad, surely just avoiding reviews and demo's might have got them a few sales.

I forced myself to play a second fight on it, give it a fair chance. It is incredible how a game could be released that is so unplayable. Shitest game ever award.

the career mode used to be quite good in the old NBA street games actually. Haven't played the new one much.

modes dont mean much when the gameplay is comparable to pouring salt into your eyes.

You thought the graphics were good??!?

aye. Especially the background effects.

Tris: It's not that bad, is it? I haven't really given the new one a chance yet, but the old ones were quite good.

the only EA game I actually want atm, is SSX. There's one coming for the Wii, however I want them to make us a damn 360 version :/
