Solid show, would recommend.

I, my wife and kid already have a 3ds and I just yesterday splashed out on the new Zelda xl version. You can't go wrong with that machine. If you combine all the triple A titles on all the current consoles at the moment I bet the 3ds has more than them all combined. You just need to be a fan of games and gameplay rather than graphics. Obviously the 3ds can't compete graphically, but for pure game fun it cannot be beaten, hell the sales figures speak for themselves. One gripe I have with the machine is the batterry life, it kinda sucks, but I mainly play with it plugged in.

.......and never say is it worth while for an adult. That kills me whenever anyone says that. Is it really any more mature/realistic that you survive 8 bullets in a call of duty game than Jumping on a goomba? It's all fantasy at the end of the day and the bottom line is what gives you joy. I bet you have just as much fun playing Mario, Zelda etc as any other game. Scratch that, I bet you have MORE fun.

I personally love a good game, regardlesss of the machine it is on or how it looks. If it is awesome then it is awesome.

3ds, go for it.

Your assumption of me being anti-American could not be further from the truth. My views are more in line with not wishing countries (any country) stick their noses in to events that have little to do with them and claim it is for the good of humanity blah blah blah. Some Syrians killed other Syrians, so let the powers that be bomb more Syrians to add to the kill total. Anyone seeing the logic here?

If anything an attack on Syria is more likely to bring further destabilisation to the region along with strengthening the will of a large populace of the Arab world. 2 things that are not good for anyone.

I think Lomax understood what I was saying pretty well. Actually I thought you did too because originally you said:

Anti-American? No. Anti-Stupidity? Yes.

"I think the official reason for this is to discourage the use of weapons deemed to be inhuman."

Yes because napalm and many many other weapons never fell in to this category.

I personally am so sick of this crap. Mind your own business. If Syrians want to kill each other so be it, let them do it.

I don't remember anyone trying to sort out Rwanda when their goverment was slaughtering their own people.
I wonder why?
