Both teams have been kinda poor to be fair, or at least they cancelled each other out, 1 shot on target in first 90 mins! Spain woke up in extra time though, good luck in penalties HP

At least be good at the game you invented. Wales don't give a fuck about football. At least they all get a big pay cheque.

Since when is reaching the quarter finals considered 'not being good?'. We could be better yeah, but to say we need to be number 1 in the world because we were the first to figure out kicking a ball was fun is a bit of a stretch

Bit harsh Dux, but then I suppose you can't rant about Wales' performance in the tournament Admittedly England weren't that good tonight but we made it into the final 8, s'about right for this England team I think. They probably just need more time to adjust to the change of manager and to get back some of the players we lost through injury. First thing on the agenda should be learning how to pass to each other though!

Yes Italy did deserve to win, we were poor overall. If we had managed to make it through we would've got totally spanked by Germany and its a bit too soon for that to happen again

I wonder who thought naming the main character BJ was a good idea

Looks kinda like The Raid, funny how films always come out at the same time that mimic each other

So that makes it more fair? And what does the Ukraine have to do with it? I'm not even mad at England, it isn't their fault. I just feel with the Ukrainians, because the match could have taken a different turn if that goal had been recognized. Just like Lampard's goal should have been recognized in 2010. The question is whether we want to do something about it moving forward...Well, the actual question is whether the UEFA & FIFA want to do something about it.

Didn't say it made it fair, was just saying sometimes decisions go one way, sometimes they go another, and yeah I agree they really need the goal-line technology now

Shh I was talking about recent times anyway, but then I suppose it's every football fan's point of view that their team has been handed the shit end of the stick more than once

Thing is people might complain that England got lucky last night and Ukraine were cheated out of a goal, which is fair enough but has everyone forgotten the disallowed Lampard goal in the World Cup against Germany a couple of years ago? It's actually refreshing to see a decision like this go in England's favour for once, what goes around comes around

It actually makes a change to have the focus on a team like the Netherlands rather than England for a change, we're actually not doing too bad but then we didn't have the strongest group. I think because everyone here had high expectations of England for the World Cup they had loads of pressure on them and suffered because of it, whereas this time around no-one expected them to do that well, given the amount of injuries we had recently and the change of management, but it's going ok so far...(I've probably just jinxed it)

I think he did it out of petulance, he can't deal with not being the centre of attention in the team, it's no good for Holland when they have player's like that who aren't all about the team

All mods are done for free Pogo, doesn't mean people can't have opinions on them. But yeah I was only joking anyway, never said I wasn't looking forward to playing it

I assume part of the point of the Black Mesa mod was to update the original Half Life to a more modern engine, however now that this has been in development for so many years it's showing it's age again, they probably need to start again on a new engine

I should not have just watched that before going to bed, now I feel way too awkward to sleep. I skipped through the later parts, check out the bit right at the end when they start dancing for no reason :embarrassed:

Saw it on Monday and I enjoyed it, not perfect by any means by an entertaining watch. The main thing that bugged me was that

they spoilt the ship crashing scene in the trailers, and that was the big finale!

The major problem is, I don'tknow if I will still play the game at the end of the year. Now we have to planned our year of gaming ? And I already have back to karkand, too. Don't want to pay again for it.

Same here, I will probably get Close Quarters and the next pack, but by then it'll be September with Black Ops 2 around the corner and I don't want to tie myself in to anything when I may not end up getting my money's worth (as I'll probably stop playing BF3 at that point), just a shame that means I have to wait 2 weeks for content. I made a similar mistake with Elite which I bought straight away and then realised MW3 wasn't the best so I sold it, without getting any mileage out of my membership at all really, so I'm wary of these long term purchases.

I loved Uncharted 1 and 2 but just can't get into the third one, the combat just kinda bores me so I hope they step it up for this. Also did anyone see the 'Beyond' trailer? Looks like that's probably the real reason they changed the Ellen Page likeness character in this game to something else

Some of the Crysis guys are going to be there, we were shown what they've put together for E3 last week and it honestly looks awesome I'd like to go one year as a visitor but being in the UK it's not so easy just to pop down to LA for the week

It's possible the trailer was a marketing ploy to get people talking about the game, in which case it's certainly worked
