I was there, second back row right at the top of the hall. 

No tron, was just a curtain, though recollect there was pyro when Brock Lesnar jumped onto the ring.

Scott Hall announced the wind doesn't blow in Glasgow....it sucks.

William Regal got lot's of Regal Sucks chants, but he got on mic to say he couldn't possibly suck as he wasn't Scottish.

Austin vs Big Show match is identical to the Insurrextion match later that week.

Lots of chants for man sweeping the ring in between bouts.

Bought a program and thought it was weird that WWF was blurred out on Silver Vision adverts, week or two later company was WWE.

Debra was brought out at very start as a special ring announcer, my mate leapt off his chair and applauded.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but will Virgin be broadcasting Wrestlemania this year? I usually watch it at home on sky but my sky has been playing up so am hoping to watch it at a friends house on virgin but we can't find anything to confirm that it's being shown. Anyone know for definite yay or nay?

Yep, Live the same as Sky. You only get repeats all day on Monday though.

 

Thanks Phenom, does it show up on the on demand listings the week before, same as sky?

Yeah, but you can't actually order it until the actual Sunday. It can be a pain, but at least they carry it I suppose.

 

Thank you, at least I don't have to worry about getting the sky fixed before then.

Be careful with Virgin Media lads. Last year, they didn't start showing the event until 45 minutes in. Virgin viewers last year missed the opener, the Orton triple threat match and all but the last 5 minutes of MITB.

 

Aye, it came on at midnight for most people, but not everyone on Virgin.

 

And, im not so sure Virgin are going to show WrestleMania, on the Live Events Channel it's not advertising anything, and they usually have the event information up weeks before the actual show, Mania is only 12 days away and it's not even advertising on there yet, Royal Rumble was advertised like a month in advance. Also when you go to more on demand and click future events it doesnt advertise anything there either.

 

Got a bad feeling about this one.

I just contacted them, they said they ARE showing it. If they decide to take the money, and then not show it, it won't be the first time either though

I just had Virgin Media installed this morning, were you able to record previous WrestleMania's onto the VBox for a limited period? Thank you.

Went to Morrisons and bouth Fallout 3, Smackdown 2009 and Mirrors Edge benad new for

Excellent work Black2! Here is my list, I had started to write really long write ups but was too close to deadline and had to settle to tiny sentences.

1. Silent Hill 2 - PS2

Scary, mature, gripping. A masterpiece.

2. TimeSplitters Future Perfect - PS2

Same great multiplayer, finally a decent story mode.

3. Resident Evil - PS1

My first survival horror game and it sucked me into the genre. Also features best character ever: Barry Burton

4. Broken Sword - PC

Lovely game, hilarious and interesting with fiendish puzzles.

5. Grim Fandango - PC

More hilarious puzzling, genuine sadness when you finish the game as you will no longer be spending time with the characters.

6. Metal Gear Solid 4 - PS3

Well polished, great finale to the series that somehow ties up the loose ends from several batshit insane plots.

7. Grand Theft Auto 3 - PS2

Seemed to come out of nowhere to take over the world. Great fun just driving around listening to Lazlow on the radio.

8. Incredible Crisis - PS1

One of the strangest games I have ever played which follows a Japanese family going to a birthday party but get involved in affairs and alien invasions.

9.Dynamite Headdy - Mega Drive

Excellent Treasure platformer, bright vibrant and very hard.

10. Mega Bomberman - Mega Drive

CLassic multiplayer gaming.

11. Burnout Paradise - PS3

Brilliant reinvention of the franchise and the constant updates keep it fresh.

12. Sonic The Hedgehog - Mega Drive

I mod just about ever console or phone I own and run this game. Addicitve and fantastic soundtrack.

13. Medievil - PS1

3D platformer packed with British humour and loads of varied levels.

14. Die Hard Arcade - Sega Saturn

Three games in one. None are anywhere near perfect but all are hilarious fun with friends in the same room.

15. SingStar - PS3

Ultimate party game - everyone wants a go when drunk and the online features are fantastic. Constant updates lead tonew tracklists for every party.

Surprised to see Guitar Hero 3 there, thought thatwas universally panned by players. So glad to see Silent Hill 2, that was my number 1 game, a masterpiece.

Siren Blood Curse - episodic horror for the PS3. Good idea in theory, and while the game is excellent, a lot of people will be instantly put off my the 9GB download.

Puppets Play Metal

Then Go On Cribs

You'll need to buy another Starter Deck' for two player mode - the game only comes with one set which is annoying, though the cards are dirt cheap on Play.com

Not really what I'm playing... but just wondering if anyone has a PS3 with that funky card game you can buy for it, and if so... is it any good?I love card games anyway, and adding a game that brings the cards to life on screen looks awesome, but it would only be so if the game was fun to play... so... anyone here played it?

Assassins creed is possibly the best game of 2007.Imagine Prince of Persia, but 10,000X better, with lots of blood, guts and drool worthy graphics.

Man that sounds incredible. I've been putting off buying it because I still have lots (and lots) of games to finish, I am really tempted though.

I've seen nothing but disappointed reviews for this game. I think I'll rent before making a decision.This week I have been mostly playing Boom Boom Rocket, Pacman Championship Edition, Halo 3 and the Burnout Paradise demo. Gems, every one.Burnout Paradise is so fast and detailed, my eyes nearly fell out of my head. There's times (actually, pretty much all the time) when there's nothing you can do but react to something that happened milliseconds before. It's quite the adrenaline rush. Having the freedom of a city to tear around in, with non-compulsory, user-triggered "event" races, rather than jumping from on preset race track to the next is very refreshing.I think the full version may need to be purchased when it's out.

Metal Gear Solid is nonsense, but its fun nonsense. Metal Gear Solid 2 is one of the craziest games ever made.I don't recall a coffin but the latest trailer has a little girl saying her mother's name was Olga.

Thanks for the heads up on the spoiler asshole :pOh well, i guess this means that a now have to read up every single little bit on the MGS4 story now. what a shame

I doubt anyone on here could cope with my love of ferrets, video gaming, impulse buying and 'little moments'.I'm a bit of a spastic really ;)Back to MGS does anyone else here think that in a game to come theyre going to bring in a character whos mothers name was EVA?

SingStar on the PS3 could well be one of the best games ever if they sort out the online. For days I have been unable to watch people make a fool of themselves due to server problems.

I think the MGS servers are now closed down, sadly.

Currently playing Kane & Lynch: Dead Men. It's little more than a repetitive shooter, but it has some of the best moments in a third person shooter I've seen in some time. Take for example the Heat inspired street shootout, which is utterly mental and so much fun to play. Or the nightclub section, where you have to pick out the guards with their torches amidst crowds of frightened revellers. Even rappelling down a skyscraper is a stunning moment. The story is also really engaging, and a movie version is being planned. Sadly the game is a little too by the numbers in parts, but overall it's a lot of fun, which I can't say about Assassin's Creed, because it bored the fuck out of me.

I think with the new price drops that I'll pick up a PS3 next payday.Any game recommendations? Not the biggest fan of first person games I expectmy first game will be Pro Evo

Global Defence Force on PS2.No-nonsense blow-up-everything-you-see 3rd-person shooter, single-handedly fending off an army of giant ants around the streets of London with a rocket launcher and a tank from the very start. That big office building in your way? Just raze it to the ground. DIE, alien insect scum!

Any recommended PS3 games that are out before Christmas, other than Pro Evolution Soccer 6 and SD! vs. RAW 2008?

What did you think of the final 3rd of Fahrenheit? It is quite a bone of contention on here.Downloaded Warhawk last night on the PS3, great fun! I hadn't been following this one too closely so didn't know you could drive trucks and tanks as well as the Warhawk fighter jets. I must have freaked out the folk I was playing online the first time I flew the Warhawk, I was all over the place.

FirePro Wrestling is getting an official UK release on the PlayStation 2

Any XBoxer's got The Darkness? It has had lot of mixed reviews so was wondering if anyone had any opinions as I may pick it up on the PS3 when it finally comes out tomorrow.

That Orb program is awesome with the PS3 as well, had only really be using it to stream music but going to look over these flash channels. Definitely going to get a PSP now, just waiting for the new model in September.

I have the media server running on PS3, but never knew you could do all that! I have been wanting a PSP for a while now, still holding out incase the new model is announced at E3.
