  1. What do you class as a 'Tuner'? Is it a VW Golf GTI Mk.2? The GTI had an Inline-4 with 105hp if i'm not mistaken, it was basically a bit different than the GL's engine.
  2. Well at least it's not 2010. In January Polyphony Digital said it could be 2009, but a more realistic date would be Q2/Q3 2010. I'm happy they are delaying it though, what would you rather have: The game out later this year with no cockpit view, or the game out in 2009/2010 with cockpit view for around 1000 cars? And can you really expect Forza 3 to compare to this? :D Hopefully they'll sort out the physics for 3. The physics were quite good in 1, terrible in 2 though imo. EDIT: Can you HONESTLY tell me that you had understeer problems with Prologue? Unless you drove with TCS and SM without Professional mode.
  3. I can't wait til Nige sees that post :D. I've never ever heard of an un-reliable Saab before :eek:. Except for the 1995-1998 2.3 V6 93s.
  4. Yeah, now it is, it wasn't those years ago when i used to use it :D.
  5. 15 What's wrong with Toyota's, Honda's and Kia's? 34 Trust me, you don't want Vauxhall. 59 What's wrong with the iTouch and iPhone? I have a 32GB iTouch and i'm getting the 3G 2nd Generation iPhone when it comes out next month and the iTouch is probably the best handheld gadget i've ever had. 63 What's wrong with that? 71 Yeah, everytime i go out to the US tax pisses me off as well. 80 Use uTorrent or Bitlord. Btw, who remembers DirectConnect and Kazaa? :D
  6. Lmao, that 4 year old girl was funny. I don't remember doing stuff like 16 - 8 when i was 4 though and we're a year ahead of the US so i don't know why she was doing it. And the mouse one is just stupid, i can't believe how stupid that guy is lmao. And the deer one, "Who gets the deer, me or the dog?!" lmao. Oh, and Homebase is like Home Depot in the UK.
  7. If my parents let me i'll use their paypal for a donation :D.
  8. Yeah, me too, I think you have to donate, not sure, that's how you get it on another forum I go on.
  9. Ok, i'm going to bed, i can't wait to see what madness you lot have gotten into tomorrow :D. Last time i went to bed and didn't come on for a day the place was called goat-washing central. And then i did it again after that and, erm, "someone" smashed the sign. Night all.
  10. Carbon was really good for PC but for PS3 it's crap, probably mainly because i have to complete it again :(. IMO NFSU2 was the best tuning-orientated one.
  11. Wow, that looks well nice! Well, money better spent that way anyway.
  12. Everyone goes on and on about it and they're constantly asking me if i "saw it last night", to which i reply "Godamnit no! I don't watch it!" and then they come back to me 5 minutes later asking me again. Talk to me about the EDC/IDC and i'll listen but not about Skins, Hollyoaks or Eastenders because i don't care.
  13. I was just looking through my sent box on Yahoo from a few years ago and found this, i laughed so hard at the last one. The last one is great. Actual call centre conversations!!!!! Customer: "I've been ringing 0700 2300 for two days and can't get through to enquiries, can you help?" Operator: "Where did you get that number from, Madam?" Customer: "It was on the door to the Travel Centre". Operator: " Madam, they are our opening hours". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Samsung Electronics Caller: "Can you give me the telephone number for Jack?" Operator: "I'm sorry, sir, I don't understand who you are talking about". Caller: "On page 1, section 5, of the user guide it clearly states that I need to unplug the fax machine from the AC wall socket and telephone Jack before cleaning. Now, can you give me the number for Jack?" Operator: "I think you mean the telephone point on the wall". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- RAC Motoring Services Caller: "Does your European Breakdown Policy cover me when I am travelling in Australia?" Operator: Doesn't the product give you a clue? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Caller (enquiring about legal requirements while travelling in France): "If I register my car in France, do I have to change the steering wheel to the other side of the car?" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Directory Enquiries Caller: "I'd like the number of the Argoed Fish Bar in Cardiff please". Operator: "I'm sorry, there's no listing. Is the spelling correct?" Caller: "Well, it used to be called the Bargoed Fish Bar but the 'B' fell off". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Then there was the caller who asked for a knitwear company in Woven. Operator: "Woven? Are you sure?" Caller: "Yes. That's what it says on the label; Woven in Scotland". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- On another occasion, a man making heavy breathing sounds from a phone box told a worried operator: "I haven't got a pen, so I'm steaming up the window to write the number on". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Tech Support: "I need you to right-click on the Open Desktop". Customer: "OK". Tech Support: "Did you get a pop-up menu?". Customer: "No". Tech Support: "OK. Right-Click again. Do you see a pop-up menu?" Customer: "No". Tech Support: "OK, sir. Can you tell me what you have done up until this point?". Customer: "Sure. You told me to write 'click' and I wrote 'click'". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Tech Support: "OK. In the bottom left hand side of the screen, can you see the 'OK' button displayed?" Customer: "Wow. How can you see my screen from there?" ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Caller: "I deleted a file from my PC last week and I have just realised that I need it. If I turn my system clock back two weeks will I have my file back again?". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- There's always one. This has got to be one of the funniest things in a long time. I think this guy should have been promoted, not fired. This is a true story from the Word Perfect Helpline, which was transcribed from a recording monitoring the customer care department. Needless to say the Help Desk employee was fired; however, he/she is currently suing the Word Perfect organization for "Termination without Cause". Actual dialogue of a former WordPerfect Customer Support employee, (Now I know why they record these conversations!): Operator: "Ridge Hall, computer assistance; May I help you?" Caller: "Yes, well, I'm having trouble with WordPerfect." Operator: "What sort of trouble??" Caller: "Well, I was just typing along, and all of a sudden the words went away." Operator: "Went away?" Caller: "They disappeared." Operator: "Hmm. So what does your screen look like now?" Caller: "Nothing." Operator: "Nothing??" Caller: "It's blank; it won't accept anything when I type." Operator: "Are you still in WordPerfect, or did you get out??" Caller: "How do I tell?" Operator: "Can you see the C: prompt on the screen??" Caller: "What's a sea-prompt?" Operator: "Never mind, can you move your cursor around the screen?" Caller: "There isn't any cursor: I told you, it won't accept anything I type." Operator: "Does your monitor have a power indicator??" Caller: "What's a monitor?" Operator: "It's the thing with the screen on it that looks like a TV. Does it have a little light that tells you when it's on??" Caller: "I don't know." Operator: "Well, then look on the back of the monitor and find where the power cord goes into it. Can you see that??" Caller: "Yes, I think so." Operator: "Great. Follow the cord to the plug, and tell me if it's plugged into the wall" Caller: "Yes, it is." Operator: "When you were behind the monitor, did you notice that there were two cables plugged into the back of it, not just one??" Caller: "No." Operator: "Well, there are. I need you to look back there again and find the other cable." Caller: "Okay, here it is." Operator: "Follow it for me, and tell me if it's plugged securely into the back of your computer." Caller: "I can't reach." Operator: "Uh huh. Well, can you see if it is??" Caller: "No." Operator: "Even if you maybe put your knee on something and lean way over??" Caller: "Oh, it's not because I don't have the right angle - it's because it's dark." Operator: "Dark??" Caller: "Yes - the office light is off, and the only light I have is coming in from the window " Operator: "Well, turn on the office light then." Caller: "I can't." Operator: "No? Why not??" Caller: "Because there's a power failure." Operator: "A power.............. A power failure? Aha, Okay, we've got it licked now. Do you still have the boxes and manuals and packing stuff your computer came in??" Caller: "Well, yes, I keep them in the closet." Operator: "Good. Go get them, and unplug your system and pack it up just like it was when you got it. Then take it back to the store you bought it from." Caller: "Really? Is it that bad?" Operator: "Yes, I'm afraid it is." Caller: "Well, all right then, I suppose. What do I tell them??" Operator: "Tell them you're too f*%king stupid to own a computer".
  14. I had this very same problem with the Zonda. It was my favourite car, then Top Gear filming came along and now i hate it :(.
  15. Erm, what did mike do? EDIT: And Iced? EDITEDIT: Don't worry.
  16. Lmao, stop bullying him :D. I'm also so sad and bored that i've been watching this thread (and pretty much all of TDU:C) for about half an hour. Damn i'm hungry... We should all invade Habbo :p.
  17. Ok, i have to actually put on ITV4 this time for the FIA GTs. Btw, what channel does FIA European Drag Racing come on? I've only seen it once or twice at about three in the morning on channel five (i think).
  18. Yeah, it's a bit of a pain steering on the PSP version of TDU but you'll get used to it. The worst thing about it is the handbrake though, it sucks more than a Garrett GT35R. Oh, and the game can't load scenary fast enough when you're going 265mph+ so the road disappears and you fall into the water :(. Because of that i've only reached 278mph in my ME-Four-Twelve.
  19. Lol, erm, yay! I'm just hoping they will be able to do that for me because otherwise i'm pretty much screwed because i can't order by credit card.
  20. Ah well, we don't have to watch this, Balls of Steel is back on (hurray!!) :D.
  21. Same, i'm still tempted just to get it tonight. Hopefully they'll release it tomorrow or something. But then i still have to go down to the Atari UK offices to get a copy :p.
  22. Speaking of chocolate, has anyone got any of those chocolate-fountain-things yet? If so, are they good?
