The first hour was great and Daniel Craig did a really good job but it really fell apart towards the end. I was pretty disappointed.

Going back to other shooters without a cover system is going to be tough.
Also what's with the story complaints? It seemed pretty clear cut to me. The cut scenes explained everything you needed to know about what you're doing and why. I don't get it. It was no worse than the Halo games stories.
Great game overall. MP still frustrates me to hell though.

Anyway, I'm on to new options now. I realize this is a few hundred bucks more than the Sony KLV-40s200a but what does Shack think of the Sharp Aquos? I've been told a lot of great things about it...

I can definitely see why a vast majority of people will dislike this movie. It's very complex and hard to follow.
With that said, I absolutely loved it. It's a beautiful, passionate, complex, depressing movie. It's actually one of the most depressing movies I've ever seen.
I really wish they would have got Aronofsky to do The Watchmen movie. I really think he could have pulled it off.

My flatmate decided to test this using a Pizza he had recently bought. He sent the pizza company a letter complaining that he still felt hungry after eating their pizza, and that in this way he wasn't satisfied.
We just got a reply back in the post. They said that is was an uncommon complaint but that they were very sorry that he was not satisfied with the amount of topppings etc and went into a who splurge about who they regularly check the toppings on all the pizzas to ensure everything is correct.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, they gave him two free pizza vouchers, one for a much larger pizza. Score!

I take my wii over to the inlaws for some good ol gaming fun. Much fun was had with tennis and bowling and boxing and golf and baseball. Rayman was also a huge hit. But the highlight of the night was playing Madden with my Brother in Law. I let him run through the drills and then it was time for The Chiefs v The Broncos.
The first half was all me. It was so me that after he had an INT that he fumbled and I ran for a TD I let him run a punt return back for a TD. Then I gave him an easy TD on the next possession to keep it close.
Sadly this came back to fuck me. He learned how to play and in the 2nd half, I was destroyed. I ended up losing by 4 in a score that combined for over 80 points. * M A D D E N ' D *

Yesterday my father called and said that the postman just dropped of some heavy duty package. I had not ordered anything off the internet and WE did not come to mind. Did not even think it would arrive this early.
As I don´t live with my parents anymore but still use the address I drove straight away to see what that package was.
The box was a big fucker ; http://www.simnet.is/gummijoh/DSC00113.JPG
and it started with a letter ; http://www.simnet.is/gummijoh/DSC00114.JPG
Underneath was a big pile of random stuff, HL: Blue Shift, The uncensored version of the latest Leisure Suit Larry game, some neckbands (unicef,xbox360,brothers in arms and Just-Eat), along with some cd´s and misc stuff. Great haul as I never played Blue Shift and will tear through the game in the next weeks.
Under all the stuff was another letter ( no pic sorry) which had an excerpt from my post history about Danish beer and specially Tuborg Classic which is not sold outside of Denmark (to my best knowledge at least) and underneath the letter were six (6) cans of TUBORG CLASSIC.

I screamed with joy as this is my favorite beer and I cant get enough of it, evildanish is my favorite Shacker as of now and my favorite Dane, although I dont like Danes. They are always badmouthing Iceland because we are buying everything in their country. Kneel to your new overlords :)
Thanks evildanish... great WE gift!! Simply great.

A couple months ago when I was in Japan I installed a rented EVDO (cell phone internet) card and associated software on my laptop, which created a new network connection (I think it was classed as a dial-up). After I left, I uninstalled the software and removed the connection from the networking menu.
Ever since then, whenever I'm trying to do anything online (loading a page in FF, even) I'm constantly getting a popup from Win XP asking me to choose a network connection with a dropdown list showing all my dial-up and VPN connections, and all network activity stops until I click cancel. Here's an example of the window that keeps popping up:

How can I make it stop thinking I need to choose a connection, and just use whatever the default connection is at the moment (wired ethernet, wi-fi, etc.)? This is getting annoying. thx in advance.

So, we have 3 guilds and some players. Tips can be found here: http://www.shacknews.com/ja.zz?id=13292468
Unforunately, what we don't have are clear goals and/or a leader. If you have a goal, or would like to be a leader or don't want to be a leader but might wanna help out, post here or lemme know.
In general: We should be working together. Either by being close to each other for healds/staged attacks/repairing/trading goods/etc. or by at least communicating what we're up to.
