Sam yes essay’s are very depressing. I think my teacher was nice and passed me because she saw that I was putting a bunch of effort into it. Hopefully your teacher is the same otherwise if you are having as much trouble as I did you might do as bad as I should have.

I can agree with that. Pokemon Theme = AMAZING.

Also, I loved the DQ5 discussion. I did actually burst out laughing only to be scolded by the person beside me. Must be the sing of a good day.

I think I may have to listen to MAP only in computer labs. The entertaining chatter seems to keep me motivated…and I need this entertainment because editing a thesis and other essay crap is very, very depressing.

Lee, I’m terribly sorry but there is nothing more exciting than the Pokémon theme.

@Sam-Lol that reminds me of a about a week or so ago when I was listening to MAP on one of the computers in the Uni Library. Bup started doing his Lee impression and I burst out laughing, then everyone turned around and looked at me like I was deranged. Fun times. I believe I will listen to MAP at home henceforth.

Glad you enjoy the show Sam. Keep listening ever week next week I might sing something new and even more exciting.

In the first one we recored before Lusipurr messed it up I was singing a lot more. I guess the internet will never know those delights.

I gotta say, I just got around to listening to this, and Lee – I adore you. I had to muffle a giggle in the computer lab I was working in it when you started singing the Pokemon theme.

Also, I hope Ashley enjoys VP: CotP. I’m a huge VP fan myself, and I’m actually struggling to enjoy this game. On one had, I find it refreshing and different, but my inner fangirl is struggling to accept the game because I just can’t stand Wylfred. Makes me sad.

Well you see the problem with that is that if i do want to play my PS2 i have to buy a new tv because the one i currently have only supports HDMI and does not have the component cables. This is because it is actually a monitor that i use as a TV to watch TV on and play video games.

As someone who owns a ‘fully’ backwards compatible 60GB PS3, I think I’m qualified to tell you do not spend a load of money on eBay for a backwards compatible PS3!!!

Keep your PS2 and use that for your PS1/PS2 games, and then buy a nice cheap current model PS3 and use it for PS3 and Blu-Ray. The upscaling/smoothing is not worth the extra cost, and there are loads of issues with the backwards compatibility anyway.

Also initially there were other reasons that I would not purchase a PS3 or Xbox 360. Both of them were over priced when they came out, but thankfully the Xbox lowered in price so I bought that over the PS3. The backwards compatibility is not functional in the PS3 which was another main reason for me to pick up the PS3 so if i were to get one i would probably go the Ebay route and find one that can play the old games.There are not enough games i actually want to play on the PS3 to merit a purchase. From what i hear the networking on the PS3 is very “hit and miss” with certain titles while on the Xbox 360 (even though you have to pay) is much more reliable…yeah just a few reasons.
