  1. That honestly sounds horrible to me. A five pound burger, well, that's good. Five pounds of bacon? Awesome. Five pounds of cheese ... Ew. And five pounds of fries? That's like three pounds of solid salt. Eugh.

     

     

     

    I guess but maybe for a one off it might be nice.

    Do you automatically like a movie because its a sequel to a movies you liked?

     

     

     

    I am more likely to watch a film if I liked the previsions instalment in the series but I like all of those films individually.

  3. Its meant to rain monday and tuesday :thumbsup:

     

    But wow, did anyone else check that stat about Anderson?

     

    Most Innings without a duck, thats mighty impressive for a tail ender!

     

    I reckon Australia will bat the next 2 days ( or as long as they can ) and just give themselves 1-2 days to bowl us out, depending on the weather

     

     

     

    Let's hope we can get them out with a lead of 200 runs or less. That is still going to be tough ask to draw the game from there, let alone win but it's obviously better than Australia getting a lead of like 400 plus and making us look like fools.

     

     

     

    On a positive note though, in my opinion, England have been the better of the sides so far this series. I know this test match hasn't started well and we had to hold out for a draw in the first test, apart from that we have looked the more dominate team.

     

     

     

    I think we may struggle now that Kevin Pietersen and Andrew Flintoff are injured but we can't always rely on certain players to get us out of trouble. The other players need to perform.

     

     

     

    Andrew Strauss is the key to our batting I think. He can get a century and really start the innings off in a positive manner.

     

     

     

    I personally think that Ravi Bopara should be dropped out of the team. He has had his chance in 6 innings now I think it is and he hasn't performed at all really. 35 is his highest score and for a number 3 batsmen that's not too good. I think he has had his chance now and the selectors should try someone else. Saying that though, switching and changing players in between matches is probably not a good idea as they may not have any experience or have played any regular cricket before hand.

  4. 5'4" 85 lbs. Yes, I'm 14, no, I'm not anorexic.

     

     

     

    I eat McDonald's once a week, I can't do much else.

     

    What the heck man, i would get that checked out :ohnoes:

     

     

     

    5'4" and 85 lbs is 6 stone? That's not too bad. My friend is about 6'2" and weighs about 9-10 stone and he is 16.

  5. I start College in September. I'm glad I have finished senior school but I know I will miss it, mainly due to the fact that to my knowledge only one of my friends is going to the same College so I will mainly miss them. I know that I will make a new set of friends though and also hopefully keep in touch with the others.

     

     

     

    A big advantage of College is obviously that you only take the subjects you want to really, so it's alot more fun you could say, instead of having to learn basically every subject at senior school even if you dislike it.

  6. I think that the decision comes down to the mother and if she thinks it's the right decision under whatever circumstances, then it should be up to her. Obviously, it also comes down to the father if he is supporting her and she can also ask opinions and views from other family members.

     

     

     

    My own personal view is that before the baby is born it is not a baby, especially in the early stages of pregnancy where it is just a bundle of cells really. I know that some people believe that life starts at conception but I believe it starts when the baby is born to be honest.

  7. Very excited for it.

     

     

     

    I preordered it but when I heard it got pushed back I cancelled it and put the $ down for Assassin's Creed II. I loved the original, got max gamerscore for it in 4 days with only 3 playthroughs! =D

     

     

     

    The delay is annoying but at least the developers can get the game perfect I suppose.

     

     

     

    I loved Assassins Creed so I think I will definitely be getting number two but I never pre-order games really, so I will probably just wait and buy them on release day if possible.

  8. Great game, but it's like 2 years old and I don't really know what you want us to discuss. First level is scary, the rest are creative and fun, the story is Jesus.

     

     

     

    Is this supposed to be a discussion thread at all? Seems you just copypasta'd a guide off the internet.

     

     

     

    See me after class.

     

     

     

    Your right. Sorry about that.

     

     

     

    Instead I have decided to change the discussion to BioShock 2.

  9. Source: Here

     

     

     

    BioShock 2 is a first-person shooter video game, developed by 2K Marin as the sequel to the critically-acclaimed BioShock. It was originally due for release on October 30, 2009 internationally and on November 3, 2009 in North America, simultaneously on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Microsoft Windows platforms, but it was announced on July 13th, 2009 that the game is to be delayed until the first half of 2010.

    Gameplay

     

     

     

    The player will take the role of the first Big Daddy, a prototype for the Daddies seen in the original game. The character possesses superior speed and intelligence to other Big Daddies, as well as free will. As such, the player will be able to use the Big Daddy's drill and rivet gun as weapons, though the drill will overheat if used continuously. The rivet gun will have several types of ammo, similar to the first game. Alternatively, in contrast to other Big Daddies, the player may also use plasmids, while "upgrade trees" will provide unique ways to upgrade them. A new feature added is the ability to dual-wield plasmids and weapons at the same time. Further Big Daddy abilities found in the first game, such as performing a shoulder dash, will also be an option. The player will also be able to step outside Rapture into the ocean due to the diving suit they wear. Here the player can explore the ocean floor, recover from fights, marvel at the city from the outside and even pick up the special sea slugs at the ocean floor to gain more ADAM. These sea slugs create ADAM, the genetic material for the production of Plasmids. The Big Sister also appears to be a very serious threat to the player. When a certain number of Big Daddies are killed she will attack. Unlike the Big Daddies, she is lightning quick and arguably more powerful, able to extract ADAM from her enemies through a harvesting needle, straight into her bloodstream, which fuels "telekinetic abilities beyond anything previously thought possible".

     

     

     

    As a "rogue" Big Daddy, players will attempt to capture the Little Sisters from other Big Daddies who roam Rapture. Once a Little Sister is caught, the player will again have the option of choosing the fate of the Little Sisters. Harvesting remains a possibility in order to gain more ADAM, but rather than rescuing the Little Sister, players will instead be allowed to adopt them. With this option, Little Sisters will ride around with the player's Big Daddy, and will look for ADAM to harvest from corpses; in a manner similar to the proving grounds area of the first game, the player will then need to ensure that splicers will not harm the Little Sister as the harvesting process takes place. The Splicers will not damage the Little Sister, but will delay the process of gathering the ADAM. This will prolong the time it takes for the little sister to gather ADAM, allowing more splicers to attack the player and the little sister. Rescuing, while not initially an option for the player, will become available at some point in the game. Additionally the Little Sisters will also warn the player when the Big Sister is approaching. When the Big Sister is coming, there will be a countdown which gives the player an opportunity to set traps, buy items at a vending machine or place proximity mines. A sign that the Big Sister is approaching is when the Little Sister says in a singsong voice "Mr. B, Mr. B, Big Sister doesn't want you playing with me . . ."

     

     

     

    Other returning features from the first game include the ability for the player to regenerate through the use of Vita-Chambers, and audio diaries. In addition to the single-player story, multiplayer will be a feature in BioShock 2, but this will not take the form of co-operative play.

     

     

     

    It has also been confirmed from the latest gameplay trailer that Gene Banks will return and that previous areas of Rapture still exist, such as the Kashmir Restaurant where the player started out the first game, complete with the iconic statue of Atlas.

     

     

    Plot

     

     

     

    Set ten years after the events of BioShock, a number of towns around the world have been reporting kidnappings of young girls, with witnesses reporting the attackers as both extremely fast and thin, with red lights often reported as either being worn by the attacker or spotted nearby in the sea. This single attacker is in fact the Big Sister, one of the Little Sisters from the first entry in the series, who has mechanized herself in a similar fashion to the Big Daddies and has become the ruler of the underwater city of Rapture. Under her control, the city has reached an equilibrium in which she "actively maintains the city's infrastructure, and viciously hunts anyone down who disrupts the balance of power"; Tenenbaum, discoverer of ADAM and original creator of the Little Sisters, also states that the Big Sister has begun kidnapping girls to turn them "into creatures like her". Tenenbaum also states that she is a Golem character, hinting that her actions could be being manipulated by a different force.

     

     

     

    Development

     

     

     

    Initially, media reports suggested that the subtitle, "Sea of Dreams", would accompany the second entry in the series. However, this subtitle was supposedly dropped, before 2K withdrew the statement, stating that the "Sea of Dreams" subtitle would still be part of the full title. However, a later statement from 2K spokesman Charlie Sinhaseni clarified that the "Sea of Dreams" title was for the trailer, and not for the game itself. The first anything for Bioshock 2 came in the form of a Teaser Trailer that was available for viewing in the PS3 port of the first Bioshock. The first major details on the gameplay and plot of the game were revealed in the April 2009 issue of Game Informer magazine,[15] around the same time that the "viral" site "There's Something in the Sea" was revealed. This site documents a man's investigation into the disappearances of girls from coastline areas around the Atlantic, along with a mysterious red light that accompanies each kidnapping. On April 9, 2009 on the [bleep]e TV show GameTrailers TV with Geoff Keighley the first Bioshock 2 gameplay video was shown featuring the Big Sister. This demo showed many features including the ability to walk under water.

     

     

     

    On May 8, 2009, it was confirmed that Digital Extremes would be producing the multiplayer component of the game. In the multiplayer portion, players are put in a separate story where civil war has broken out in Rapture prior to the events of the first game. In the multiplayer mode the player acts as plasmid test subject for a company called Sinclair Solutions. As the player progresses through the multiplayer maps like Mercury Suites and Kashmir Restaurant they will either have the ability to hack security bots or search for the Big Daddy suit.
