    Forum upgrade to 4.2.1

    Hello anyone who remembers me. Having not visited for a good year or two now, this place looks a lot different - generally for the best (and good work on the personalised email inviting me to come and have a look... someone's been studying customer retention!) Don't know if it's just me / how...

    Assume it is 'all business' and no suggestion of a TRF beer or two...

    First Trailer for RWC 2011 - NOW LIVE!

    Why is any defence 'blind', yet any attack justified? I haven't played the game, I have no links or loyalty to either Sidhe or HB, but I think ANY opinion based on zero gameplay is massively premature...

    Feel like HB has let you down?

    So why are you getting so angry about it? Just buy a different cake and let other people make their own decisions. Presumably you don't mind if someone wants to turn up at your primary school and passes judgement on your work? You are still at school right? Sorry, just didn't want to make...

    Feel like HB has let you down?

    Quick question for you, can you tell just by looking at them, or do you think trying them / reading opinions of people who have tried them would be a fairer way to judge them?

    Feel like HB has let you down?

    I am glad you have found a cake which meets your tastes... although I really don't understand why you need to include unfounded and overly vitriolic criticism of the other cakes available while announcing your decision, it seems a bit petty mouthing off about cakes on the internet doesn't it?

    Feel like HB has let you down?

    I have decided to start baking cakes. It is a long time since you have had a cake, and you are really excited about my cakes. Before asking you to buy one, I show you photographs of my cakes. Oh dear, my photography isn't very good... my cakes look disgusting. Undeterred by your unfounded...

    HB must build more awareness for rugby 2011

    Let me make the exact same point, using slightly different words. People going to either HB or Sidhe's sites have prior knowledge of the game(s). As a percentage of the total number of people who will end up buying a rugby game this year, this is a tiny number. Pre-release info builds...

    What is the most inspiring thing you've ever read/heard

    HB must build more awareness for rugby 2011

    Casual fans will not be queueing up / pre ordering / buying either game on release day, they won't be researching, visiting forums etc in anticipation, they will either see both games in store, or see one advertised around the event itself - so HB's 'official' badge will come into its own, as...

    HB must build more awareness for rugby 2011

    Exactly... this forum covers a niche of dedicated rugby fans, with this board covering the VERY niche rugby gaming fans... who as a proportion of total buyers of the products are a minute fraction, even more so in a RWC year when casual and non-fans may invest in a game. I am not suggesting...

    HB must build more awareness for rugby 2011

    Question: How many people do you think will buy a rugby game this year having anticipated one or both ***les eagerly vs. how many will buy a rugby game having got caught up in the excitement of the RWC and then seeing the game in a shop / on a games website? I think being the 'official' game...

    The Phone Hacking Scandal

    This is actually a terrible outcome... 400 journalists, most of whom will have had no knowledge of any hacking, will lose jobs (at least those who can't be slotted into new roles... Possibly at the new 'Sunday Sun' which is clearly lined up to replace NOTW once the dust settles). These people...

    AFL Live 2011

    It doesn't seem like it - you have the option to try to tip it by just nudging the right stick in a direction, or punch it by holding down L2 and doing the same... doesn't seem to be a general 'jump for it' option. Initial impressions, I'm loving this - sure I'm being tactically inept, but...

    AFL Live 2011

    PS3 isn't region-specific so no issues at all... looking forward to giving it a go!

    AFL Live 2011

    One of the (few) benefits of business travel... I am now in possession of this game. Won't be home until later tonight, but am happy to answer any questions you may have. My knowledge of AFL is fairly limited, but I'll do my best...

    Ex-Blue Bulls 'went on axe-murdering rampage'

    Former Springbok 'went on axe-murdering rampage' Pretty harrowing stuff - you have to feel for all involved. The desire for vengeance is so understandable, the method is tragically misguided: Telegraph Report Edit - thanks whoever found and merged this into the correct thread! I think the key...

    Fight Night Champion

    I've not actually encountered a promotional event yet (it's a greyed-out option on my pre-fight preparation menu), think you probably need to be ranked a bit higher, but can't imagine them being anything too substantial, probably just another way of slightly draining your fatigue bar in the...
