As shitty as that first trailer was ill probably still see it. Lol that part with the white STI rolling in on two wheels reminded me of arab drifting. So crazy! For those who havent seen it..

Yeah and here's what happens when it goes wrong... fools.

Not Safe For Work

I wouldn't be surprised if they at least allow use of the Vita as a stand-in controller, particularly with the new official controller rumoured to have Vita-like touch pad.

BTW I always wondered: can the Vita be connected to a PS3 and used to play its games, kind of like what the Wii U does?

I don't understand people's obsessions with fast cars. They're just cars, what's the big deal?

I don't have any interest in cars at all, I can't even drive. Fast Five wasn't really focused on them though, it was more of a heist movie than anything with cars happening to be the mode of transport.

Haha, have to admit I did enjoy Toyko Drift and Fast Five. They're the kind of films best watched with broz so you can act like dicks and point at all the tits.

Agreed, no more footage for me. After some recent experiences I've realised that going into a vast gaming world blind can be such an incredible experience.

SONY FUCK YEAH

Shit in my ass. Can't wait for this game.

Yeah Sony has absolutely nailed this generation for me. I've had both a 360 and PS3 for most of it, but I think I must literally have gotten about 100 times the use out of the PS3 — and that's not including using it for music and TV/film, which I also do all the time. I think they've proven that even with a poor start, putting money into product quality and innovative games above all else is the way to go.

The only fall they've had has been the absolutely shit new store they implemented recently, but I hope that'll have a short life and be completely replaced for the PS4. I heard that was more for the Vita than anything, which would make sense as it feels like it was never even tested on a PS3.

Delayed until September.

Really sad, although it was quite noticeable that Epic Mickey didn't seem to be doing that well. I guess despite being a cool concept and (from what I've heard) a good game, it found itself in a niche that nobody was interested in beyond brief curiosity. Too weird/alternative for kids, perceived by many adults as too kiddy.

Hope everyone finds new gigs soon, which I don't doubt you will!

Not the most exciting subject matter (my apartment view), but had my first shot at long exposure tonight (cropped from this):

Took some time to understand the practicalities of the technique, but think I've got a handle on it now so looking forward to trying for a more interesting photograph at some point with it.

Here's one from the other night when the snow was disappearing, I grabbed it because I thought the colours were unusually beautiful. Nature's blorange — I didn't change the colours at all for this.

The fanboy response to the new DMC has been nothing short of absolutely pathetic IMO. Just... ugh. Pathetic.

I played the demo and thought it was awesome.

Quote from Beck

This was great

Fuck yeah. I love the little messages that these shorts tell, can be so much more meaningful than more substantial works sometimes. Of course the post-credits twist made me laugh.

Must see !

French voice over by Feodor Atkine the French voice of Dr House.

Oh god that was beautiful. Although I was getting really depressed with those hopeless situations, lol.

Really enjoyed The Life Aquatic. Love how it depicts something that is becoming something that was, the main character realising that his best days are behind him — but things are still pretty good. Also it has a cast to die for who really breathe life into splendidly-written characters. Honestly this is one of the most fun films I've seen in ages and I don't think I've ever seen Bill Murray as good as this. It's like he was born for this role.

Highly recommended if you enjoy comedic films that're a little black/dark. If you've ever seen any of Wes Anderson's other films you know exactly what I mean, although the Coen Brothers often hit a similar tone in things like Fargo, The Big Lebowski, and Burn After Reading (also great films). We're talking tragic and upsetting death scenes followed up by comedy that makes you laugh literally seconds later.

I highly recommend Wes Anderson's entire filmography, in fact. I've not watched his latest Moonrise Kingdom yet which is meant to be excellent, but The Darjeeling Limited and The Royal Tenenbaums are some of my favourite films of all time. Anyone who enjoys photography/filming should check them out purely for what I consider some of the best use of colour/composition in cinema.

I was more referring to the story and setting, really. It doesn't feel like very much is happening apart from I'm going through lot of (awesome-looking) environments. I've been enjoying myself, just starting to hit a point of it feels like there's not much more I can get from it.

I never got to play Crysis 2 (apart from the pre-release version at Eurogamer) so I think I'll pick it up during the next week or so, while also catching up on things like Deux Ex 3 and Dishonored. Trying to play BioShock too but I'm getting a little fatigued, does the game mix things up much as it progresses or is it a bit Doom 3?

Anyone who loved Ocarina but didn't play Wind Waker sincerely should give it a go if they ever get the chance.

Whereas Twilight and Skyward are kind of their own thing, Wind Waker is built on the lore/story of Ocarina and some of the stuff that happens will likely bring a serious smile to your face.
