That looks cool. Gives me an excuse to dig out my Thrustmaster Cougar sticks again too.

Will have to give the trial a go.

Currently playing Enemy Engaged 2 on a single Saitek stick, it's alright.
Also playing Company of Heroes and Supreme Commander.

Supreme Commander just isn't pulling me in. Plus it forces my monitors to shut off afterwards so I have to VNC in from my laptop to reset them...

Company of Heroes is fantastic though. I just love killing Germans.

Been managing to split my time between Forza2 and Just Cause now

Was playing JC last night on a mission where you have to drive up to the top of a volcano where there's a nightclub and kill this dude. So I'm driving up, fighting off the bad guys when my car catches fire. So I jump out guns blazing. I'm backing away from these guys when I walk off the side of the cliff....great!!!

So I'm stuck on this ledge with no way to get back up so I decide to give up, jump off the side and open up the parachute. As I'm gliding down I see a building and head towards it. What's on top? A chopper

I land by the building, climb to the roof and jump in. I take off and fly to the top of the volcano where I gain as much altitude as I can just so I can jump out and freefall into the volcano club. I open my chute, glide down and I land right by this guy. Shoot him to pieces and jobs a good'un.

I ****ing love this game

I'm playing

Nothing!

I've completed S.T.A.L.K.E.R. , SCDA has a bug and there's nothing I fancy at the moment. I might have a bash at some online stuff before BioShock come out. *hehe he said bash hehehe*

I didn't start losing lives until the end of stage 7 (I think) - before you get off the bird. Took me 2 or 3 reloads to get through that (ended up using magic) with enough lives to face Death Adder - which wasn't easy. With 4 lives and 3 health bars, I finished with 1 life and 2 bars on the second or third attempt.

I found that. It is a very, very cool game and given more time I am sure I could enjoy it more - just it isn't fun, it isn't appealing, and it doesn't entice.

C&C3 had far more charm, same with World in Conflict...

Football Manager 2006. Must have put around 40 hours into it (if not more) this week. Scary.
