Cool animations on those rounds disappearing, and the bombs dropping on that Italian bomber!

Ha-ha! You gotta agree with Fireman there, some Dogz have mistaken a three engined Ju-52 transport plane for a Spit, and worse!

Carrie Fisher sure was cute back then... http://www.totalfilm.com/features/18-rare-and-unseen-star-wars-shots

Tonar, I agree with you about Vick. I feel he should never of been allowed back. But the spineless NFL commissioner just wants more ratings and money I guess?

I can't believe yourself, and the REST of the media, have the Vikings topping the NFC North, just because they have Favre at QB!?!? If Favre took a dump on the lawn of the oval office, John Madden would have everyone saying what a great movement he did there.

Jabo will! He'll even give you their engine serial numbers. I know they're definitely NOT a pair of Incom T-65 X-wing fighters. But I'm glad I could help.

Hilarious story! I'm surprised that they didn't fire an inter-continental, ballistic, missile up at it.

Right, I managed to download all 2.8GB of the Arma2 demo in about 45mins. Which was fantastic, as the AA3 downloads of a similar size nearly took me over 12 hours. Installed the Arma2 demo and jumped straight in to the single player training to get used to the interface/controls. Was enjoying the training until the bit were you do the Anti-Tank practise. After firing my 2nd rocket, you get attacked by the enemy. So all I had was a rifle with no ammo and an anti-tank launcher with 2 rockets left and I had to get to the next area, with several enemy around. I jumped in the hummer and headed to the area, which was surrounded by enemy. I used one of the anti-tank rockets to kill a guy and I ran over and took his AK-47 and ammo and ran back in to cover as quick as I could. Then I just camped inside this house and attacked anyone who came close. Finally I got killed and thought sod it, lets try multi-player. Which is cool they allow you to play multi-player in a demo. There were about dozen servers with a handful of people in. The biggest one had 6 and was a deathmatch, I would of preferred to play teams, but jumped in anyway. Sheesh! You get spawned in to this tiny area and often get killed right away as you spawn in front of some guy. So I quickly got used to running in to cover as soon as I spawned. I got used to the game and enjoy going around John Rambo style and killing everyone I saw. And getting killed in return too. Overall, not bad indeed. I'm going to try the command training bit tonight.

Sorry, I meant Daily Mail. I just hate the way videos as innocuous as this, are simply unable to be viewed from a different country. Stupid copyright laws!

ARGGHH!!! I click on your link, go to the Guardian website. It says the video is down below, so I scroll down and clink on the video and won't start, it says "Embedding disabled on request, go to YouTube to watch it". So I do go to YouTube only to get This video is private. I hope you don't think I'm having a pop at you Sid. p.s. Finally found a working link -> LAST FLIGHT OF THE VICTOR 2009

Well, the season starts this Thursday (night for me.) So give us your team predictions. Mine -> Chicago Bears I'm gonna go for a 10-6 record. We got a great QB in Jay Cutler, and a stud of a RB in Matt Forte. Even with a load of no-name receivers (apart from Devin Hester, but I wouldn't call him a #1 WR), I think Cutler is so good, he'll lift the play ability of these WRs. We also have a some good TEs, especially in Greg Olson, and we appear to play a lot of 2x TE formations. So expect a good mix of runs and passes from this to keep opposing D's on their toes. The only worry is our Defense, especially our Secondary. I've always been a big fan of Charles Tillman and Zach Bowman had a great training camp, but the remaining DBs look pants. Our D, like most, will live or die from front 4, ex-Lions coach Marinelli seemed to get them sparked up in TC, but I only hope they up their game for the regular season. But I do see us making the playoffs on a VASTLY improved offense, and if the defense improve, we could go deep in the playoffs. It's playoffs or bust for Coach Lovie Smith. Next...?

I do like AA Perfesser, but I had enough of trying to download it after 3 failed attempts.

Sorry to hear this CG, and I know I've missed you flying with us for quite some time now. Not the bit were you shoot me down often, just part were you're on TS with us. Hope everything gets better so you can come back to us, since we desperately need you as our counter-weight to JP.

Wow! Lots of good info here, thanks for that. I had a look at a trailer for Red Orchestra, from their website, and although the tank battle scene looked great, the infantry looked rather dated. I also don't like WWII FPS, as there doesn't seem to be varied roles to play. It's just like your 7 identical guys with a rifle, and your team leader has a pistol and a whistle instead. I think the best bet is just try Demos of the ones I'm interested. So I thought I'd buy the latest PC gaming mag to see if they had any decent demos in them. But it costs €10 for PC mag and DVD over here! So for a demo and a mag I'm not going to read (German) I'm going to skip that and just download the demos from the publishers site. So I'll start off with Arma2.

Why Perfesser? What's wrong with AA3?

Chaps, I don't know why, but I just fancy getting in to a real good first person shooter game, multi-player of course. So I know a lot of you play some of these and I was wondering if you could give me the pros and cons of the games you play. I see Arma2 is a recent release and doesn't look too bad, even if it's got arcade-like flight system in it. I used to really like playing America's Army a while back, even more so since it was free. But I just tried to download version 3 recently, and after 3 full attempts (1 with Steam, 2 direct from site) they all said it had a corrupt file(s) and I wasted HOURS downloading all 3GB every single time. Apparently you can pay for the shipping and get the DVD sent to you. But I'll wait to see what you say about the other games out there. The BattleField series seems to be popular too, but I don't know much about them. All I'm after is something that is top quality, realistic, and not full of idiotic teens like Counter-strike. A game that really forces you to fight in a squad and not be some John Rambo, who can take being shot 10 times. I'd lean more towards modern day/slightly futuristic theatres, but I'm okay with WWII. And I've got no problems playing on the Russian/Chinese/Fictitious bad guys side. So...?

Nice pix again JP, but that pix of you under the turret... oh my!

If he does take it down to 10m, how does he know where he's going? Unless he just goes straight up & down. http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/World-News/Homemade-Submarine-Chinese-Amateur-Inventor-Tests-Submarine-In-Lake-in-Beijing-Tao-Xiangli/Media-Gallery/200909115374371?lpos=World_News_Second_Home_Page_Strap_Teaser_Regio_0&lid=GALLERY_15374371_Homemade_Submarine%3A_Chinese_Amateur_Inventor_Tests_Submarine_In_Lake_in_Beijing_Tao_Xiangli

Class!

Is your sound set to 44100 sampling rate?

Afraid not, sorry.

Nice pics JP. Anyone know why that bomb-bay door, or pilot access hatch, has EXPERIMENTAL written on it?

I like!

Damn, that was a hard landing!
