Finished Okami about a week ago. Took me 33 hours all up, i made a save before the end bit so i can go back and do all the quests and stuffed i skipped.

I loved the game, one of the best games i've played in the past two years.

Also i sold my wii last week. It really is a stupid console, it is not for gamers. Sure you may say games like metroid prime and mario are good, but they are the same as the cube version except for gimmicky controls. Pointing a remote to move the camera is the same as using an analogue stick, there is nothing revolutionary about it.

I may grab another wii in the future but i got a good price for it and i'll put the money towards the gt5 prologue console pack i'm getting soon.

Currently playing...

GTA: VCS on psp, brought when it dropped to 30 bucks retail only about 12 percent into it, just something fun and easy to play.

Also playing the original Advance Wars on GBA great fun.

Also i finished yesterday finally the FEAR perseus mandate, just a standard run of the mill fps but still a bit of fun, with some cool gun battles.

For the people who have played GT5 prologue or the full game.Is the handling characteristics the same as GT4 or is it different again?

Do you leave rubber on the surface like Forza?

What are the things that stood out on GT5 compared to GT4?

COD 4 for multi-player.

Just got UT3

For single player, playing Bio-shock atm.

ut3 is intense!! i love it just for its graphics and its gameplay isnt bad! pleanty more story line than the previous.

bio shok i found interesting purely because it was somewhat different from the average shooter... great storyline and loved the old school style of it all.

recently been playing universe at war.... meant to be similar to the much awaited starcraft 2

and playing nfs pro street a bit.... was kinda just like the others tho :)

ne one played the whitcher?? awesome rpg but mine keeps freezing for some reason??? and its not the fact that my computer doesnt have the balls it just freezes... had a few problems with certain games that just clunk out half an hour into it grrr

I just bought a Wii.

Currently Playing Zelda: Twilight Princess and soon to jump on Zack & Wiki.

Its not the greatest console, but to say its stupid is going a bit far IMO...

The games are the same as GC? ok the graphics might not be crash hot, but thats why its only $400 (or less).

- What has Halo done? given us another crappy story, let us wield two weapons and added a couple of new weapons...

- What has GT done? beefed up the graphics, added new cars, altered control/handling schemes.

the basics are still 100% the same.

A basic example, that the Wiimote isnt just used to move the camera, is Zack & Wiki, or a more basic example, Wii Sports.

to say that more interactivity in a game is a bad thing is a tad strange (but completely your opinion), besides you should know what your in for before buying a Wii, or any other console for that matter. I will admit a lot of the games are re-hashes of games from last gen machines, or very average (trying too hard to be unique) and the online network isnt that great. but there are still some awesome games, for example: Zelda, Zack & Wiki, Metroid Prime 3, Mario Galaxy, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, (and what looks to be great) Mario Kart Wii, etc...

It also offers an experience that is completely unique to any other console, no-where near the greatest console, but its different. I think its far from stupid, but thats just your opinion and your valid to it...

I don't find the wii to be a gamers console.

And i agree i shouldn't call it stupid.

But i've played every first party nintendo title at the office or at home, and the only game i've really enjoyed was Super paper mario, which was a cube game ported to wii and had pointless additions to it, like pointing the remote to find secret passages.

And games like smash bros, and mario kart all play better with the gamecube controller.

Im definatly going to play brawl with a GC controller, but the steering wheel adaptor for Mario kart Wii looks like it could be awesome. wont know until i try it though...

Also, You didnt like using the Wiimote in zelda to aim? i think its awesome! it just feels more comfortable than moving a joystick around... but in saying that i still play FPS' on 360 fine...

I'm throwing a nerdy one into this...

I'm really really liking Company of Heroes atm... Might even get the expansion when the sale comes on at EB's later this year.... Also playing CS source, love the dust maps and office!!! Also playing a bit of BF2 online, but it is slowly dieing... Heaps of TK'ers and people that are just wankers (nothing worse than being punished fo TK when THEY run over YOUR claymore)... I bought the Swat 4 collectors pack for $25 last week and that is going to be my slash and dash till GT5 prologue comes out..

      It's so pretty, but I cry at the price (this setup was about $7,500 USD)

      Yep, I installed it, the sensors, wired everything up so things like the factory blinkers work etc. Fortunately it's not a hard job, just time consuming sorting the wiring out.  If you think this dash is nice, you should check out the actually sexy dashes lol. There would be a fair few people out there that think the IC7 is ugly.  The new and sexy Haltech dash -  https://www.haltech.com/news-events/uc-10dash/ Here is a, I hate having money option from Motec -  https://precisionracing.com.au/product/motec-c1212-display/

      @Murray_Calavera ohhh.myyyy.gawwwwd 😍 that dash is so much cleaner.  yeah I’m someone who loves older cars, but hate using old tech. A digital dash would always be the way forward. Did you install that yourself?  Thanks for the explanation on oil pressure. I’ll just take it as reference.    Also, your engine light is on 😅😅😅

      @DraftySquash Yeah... maybe think of those gauges as a super rough estimation of oil pressure and engine temperature.  If you want to see your actual engine temp and oil pressure, you're going to need an aftermarket solution. I'll post a photo of my dash, this is a much neater solution in this day and age. I can't think of any reason why someone would start adding individual gauges.  So grab your dash, then add sensors for all the extra things you want to see.  As for what to expect from oil pressure, super quick run down = cold oil, higher pressure. hot oil, lower pressure. Low revs, lower pressure. higher revs, higher pressure. The values will change based on the viscosity of oil used, the actual temperature of the oil, the type of oil pump used, then more nuanced stuff like clearances in the engine.

      Should run up to about 6 or so at high revs. But the stock oil pressure gauge is a piece of shit and can't be trusted, so make few to no decisions based on what you see it do.
