Bournemouth Wii Midnight Launch Madness Caught On Camera
From Wratty @ 12/08/2006 02:33:00 PM
We were lucky enough to attend the fantastic Wii launch event that the guys at Gamestation put on last night. The doors opened at midnight on the dot and those who had preordered their shiny white box of joy came running.
Some of the staff even dressed up as their favourite Nintendo characters to hand over the goods to the dedicated Nintendo fans...
Kudos points to the store's manager (pictured below dressed as Phoenix Wright) for the most organised launch at a video games store that we've seen in a long time.
Nice one guys!

Amazon.co.uk Selling Wii Consoles Between 3pm and 4pm TODAY
From Wratty @ 12/08/2006 01:41:00 PM
Amazon.co.uk have just sent round some emails stating that they have some more Wii consoles to sell and they're going on sale between 3pm and 4pm today, Friday the 8th of December.
They expect to sell out quicker than the last time (which was in 7 mins).
UPDATE - THEY ARE GONE!
It became a competition to see who could break Amazon the quickest! The site slowed down dramatically some lucky people got in there, and we did witness that lovely "Add to shopping basket" button.
But alas they are now gone. Hope you got yours in time.

213 Things Skippy is No Longer Allowed to Do in the U.S. Army
From Wratty @ 12/03/2006 08:18:00 PM
Nothing to do with videogames. Unless you count those 100+ army based ones.
"Once upon a time, there was a SPC Schwarz stationed with the Army in the Balkans. SPC Schwarz was either very clever or very bored; but probably both, since he managed to attempt or be warned about 213 things he wasn't allowed to do. He collected those things into a hilarious list and posted them to the web. The site hadn't been updated in a couple of years and has since gone away; but the list is classic, so I saved it."
All 213 can be found here, and while we can't list ALL of our faves we have popped a few down here:

- Our Humvees cannot be assembled into a giant battle-robot.
- Not allowed to lead a 'Coup' during training missions.
- Shouting "Let's do the village! Let's do the whole fucking village!" while out on a mission is bad.
- May not challenge officers to 'Meet me on the field of honor, at dawn'.
- On training missions, try not to shoot down the General's helicopter.
- No dancing in the turret.
James Bond / Sony Stuff Is Just Bad Bad Bad
From Wratty @ 12/03/2006 04:24:00 PM
Casino Royale is fantastic!
There's only one thing we noticed today on our third showing that really does show up, and that's Sony's product placement. The worst being the Sony Vaio "Equip Yourself Like Bond" campaign.
Why is this? Well let's look at what Bond does with the Sony Vaio...
1) Finds out where the bad guy is who keeps texting these bomb makers
2) Has a quick shifty at Le Chiffre using Judy Dench's MI6 account
3) Sends an email to Judy Dench near the end of the film
The laptop also appears at another point when Le Chiffre browses the internet to look at some news, and when he's achieving 1) he's actually using Judy Dench's laptop. It looks like there is even a deleted scene where he even gets frustrated with it and chucks it overboard.
So does this make you want the laptop? Think about it, you too could pay over the odds for a laptop that will let you in reality, send an email to Judy Dench. It doesn't say whether each laptop comes with a free "all access" account to MI6 or Dench's email address, but it does come with Blu Ray.
It doesn't do the following:
If you haven't seen Casino Royale, you should really because it's actually bloody brilliant. Best Bond yet. Just watch out for all the Sony brainwashing.

It doesn't do the following:

- Take some woman's clothes off
- Work under water
- Shoot lasers, bullets, UMD's
- Wear a tuxedo
- Work after 6 months or allow upgrades
