Just a word of warning the story has bugger all to do with the actual tv programs. The G1 plot was all about energon cubes, a moral story for our times that we are using up all the fossil fuels like the transformers used up all their energon on cybertron fighting wars. So they crashed on earth and awoke in modern times and used earth to get energon. There is no all spark in the program there is the matrix of leadership which is given to the leader of the autobots. The all spark in beast machines was the transformers type of "heaven and hell" where all their life sparks go to after they die, it wasn't in any other program ever.

It all flashy CGI with little fan fare, maybe people who know nothing about Transformers will like it but for anyone whos even seen any thing of the original they will think this is nothing like it. The programs always had a moral story and it was more than just action, ultimately it was there to focus on a different character each episode to be able to sell the toy version of it, like show off its abilities and give him a little story of his own in the transformers universe. It was one massive commercial lol.

Yeah i know the live-film has no relation to G1, but what annoyed me is like with Resident evil films,they use those elements which makes the franchise excellent and then ruin the name by some boring/similar stories to each film and then change it to appeal to movie fans,to make money. Also the CGI is excellent i have to admit but the plot of these films are so cheesy and weak.

Dude XP is full of holes compared to 7. I suggest you upgrade.

TMM actually useful in the clubhouse This is something new.

 

[MightyMission]

I did think about gettin him win7,infact it runs alright with my HD in his computer,a cursory check to see if it would even run...
He only uses it for youtube,terraria and homework so it doesnt really matter what OS he has,as long as it runs alright..which it does now.As long as he doesnt cover it with towels again he can have my old computer next week or whenever it is my parts arrive.

Actually, the episode "Lost and Found" referred to the AllSpark as a material object; and IIRC it was actually shown in the cartoon.


The Wikipedia page saying that "the AllSpark as an object didn't appear until the film" is a load of boll*cks written by some spotty faced snotty nosed teenage w*nker who doesn't know what he's on about. IMO.

*waits for a TF pro to come in here and tell me different*

Well it wasn't in the original G1 series but was in the plot for the latest animated series which is finished which was loosely based on the new films, well sort of based on them. There is the "sparks" which are the think of it as soul of a transformer. They are discussed in many series, the allspark as an object like the matrix of leadership is not.

MightyMission i dunno if i would install windows 7 depends on what hardware that old pc uses, did you say you tried it on that pc?

Mailman could have just PM'd that information.

Kieran:I dont know if it would install from scratch but throwing my HD in his computer worked fine...
Obviously it had slower load times than an OCced quad with 4 times the ram but it worked better than xp!
Although it was using over half the available ram on idle...
I didnt bother trying to load any of the games that were on my hd but then he doesnt need pc games, i am trying to limit his geekism so he has only got a wii,ps2 and a ds,i need to encourage him to be out and about instead of in his room,teenage years are coming (too bloody soon)so i dont want to set him on the wrong path!

I am doing the same with my three lil ones. I don't mind cleaning bumped knees. Beats having to deal with medical bills from obese kids.

I swear down; taking my son shooting, dirtbiking (midi dirt-bike) and getting him to pay the bills and money into his trust fund etc. got him a bit more mature. Alright, he's only 4 but I got a theory - the more adult stuff you get them to do, the quicker they grow up. Adult tings FTW

Or you could just take him to an OC'ing event with IC or Millenium and seal his geek-ness forever

The eldest boy is my biggest concern as the younger ones (3 and 10 months) have each other to compete with and wear each other out!
Their all bloody daredevils
The obese thing really worries me,as american tv is prevalent in uk now it becomes the norm to see fat kids,which of course makes it seem normal,right even...
Same as televising gay stuff,i dont want to encourage watching on tv what i personally see as wrong...

Lol scam,gonna make them learn how to wind and grind girls@6 ay
there is alot of sense in making them understand the runnings asap though,or they get buried under it all when they first get to hold a bit of money..

You jinxed my destroyer your facker!
i got a stick of ddr2 to put in it today and it wont bloody post

[cheesy999]

booked some tickets to see iron maiden at the o2 (opened by dragonforce) http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/event/1200456C96DC6CAD?artistid=735341&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=200 - anyone know how loud this is going to be?

and is it easier to get to the o2 by bus or by underground?

 

[MightyMission]

Which O2 venue? brixton,islington or bush?

 

[cheesy999]

The O2
Peninsula Square, Greenwich
London SE10 0DX

i've been told theres a tube station near it, and i hate buses...

 

[Bo$$]

tube is good, i think it takes the jubilee line straight there

 

[cheesy999]

tube is good, i think it takes the jubilee line straight there

so, do i go to victoria or st pancreas?

Also, what are these concerts like never having been to one before, i'm on the back row of the inner tier of seats

Either way you will need to change. Victoria District/Circle change at Westminster, St. P Northern to London Bridge

is either route faster?

St pancreas (Victoria line (Light blue)) to Green park, then change to the Jubilee line and head to North Greenwich (O2)

OR

St pancreas (Northern Line (Black one)) to London bridge, then change to the Jubilee line and head to North Greenwich (O2)

 

[Fourstaff]

is either route faster?

Wonder if going to Lewisham and then to O2 is faster or not. I would just use the cheaper one of the two, it should be largely the same (probably a few minutes to Victoria).
