One of the worst reffed big games in years I thought. The Mikel tackle was never a red, and once he'd sent him off he then only gave Giggs and Joe Cole yellows for tackles that were just as high. He didn't give a penalty where he should've (Joe Cole on Evra), gave one where there wasn't (Saha's...

Definitely. I also really liked the fact they used about a dozen Broken Social Scene songs in Half-Nelson, as if Gosling's character was actually a massive fan of the band and he was associating the scenarios in the film with bits of music that he loved, the way I imagine most of us here do...

Millie Jackson!

I saw this in HMV second hand the other day actually. I've only played a bit of it (got the first two painting skills) but it's magnificently done..

Hah!

Aidan Moffat!

'No Cure for the Lonely'. It's not on the vinyl, but well worth downloading if that's the only version you've got.

Michael Gira. The bonus track on the CD version of Love of Life is the best thing ever. Plus he does childrens' songs now, the idea of which frightens me beyond belief... Sly Stone too. The smug but often informative Robert Elms loves to give a Tom Waits anecdote where he flew to New York to...

Fav ever is Tom Waits. Others I love: Fred Thomas, Kim Gordon, Mark Lanegan, Maynard Keenan...

Once I was on a replacement bus service to Guildford, which was stopping at every station on the way. Come Effingham Junction or somewhere, the driver does his little turn in the car park and pulls over at the bus stop, where the only person waiting is an old woman armed with a zimmerframe and a...

The Gamecube's version of Starfox was horrible. They basically teased you with a really great flying level that made you think it would be even better than Lylat Wars, and then followed it with a bunch of shitty quasi-Goldeneye running ones.

Too right! It's gone from one extreme to the other: earlier this year it felt like nothing was happening, now everybody's struggling to keep up. Best music in the world.

Yes, but why doesn't he like Snapple?! That's the one that got me.

FF6 was SNES, so there wasn't much in the name of cut scenes. unless you got the PS1 remake, which was a bit naff... Personally if I did a top twenty the oldest things in it would be Monkey Island (1990) and Super Mario Bros (1985 in the US I think). I think it's a bit far-fetched to be...

you've honestly never heard of Final Fantasy? It's a list of someone's favourite games complimented with good writing; I think that's preferable to an attempt at a 'definitive' historical list of games.

Got mine today. Like above poster, only had a chance to flick as I have to be off the minute my girlfriend is out the shower, but it looks excellent. I really enjoyed the Chunky Bizzle/Maniac/Young Dot piece and the Skepta interview, and the ten bad man commandments were incredible...

I liked Poisonous Darts' top 50 NES games (cant find link but it wasnt long ago), and throughsilver's top 10 games ever. I want to post a bit more about video games actually. I'm on a spree of downloading all the old Lucas Arts point n clicks (I had most of them on CD but those things are...

Missed it, but I can't wait to play this back tomorrow...

on the DVD with In at the Deep End they say Roachee wasn't an official member until When I'm Ere. I'm not 100% sure whether Brazen was always in it or if he joined after Breeze, but other than that it looks right. Syer joined in 05 and left in late 06 or early 07, obviously...

Yeah whenever I click on this thread now it only shows four pages, and the last one is just replies by me with a few others. Then there's a tree thing at the top that doesn't seem to work at all. Maybe it's some half-finished thing I accidently turned on...
