I can't wait for MasterChef to start so I don't have to watch those bloody ads any more!

Whether you like Liverpool/Carragher or not, this atmosphere is god damn awesome and I wish there was a place for something like this for retirements in the AFL.

 

[Jonts]

i don't get why there are these different grades, we have 9's 11's 13's 15's yet you have 8's 10's and 12's and 14's

Its due to the need of players earlier at senior footy at country grades

as yours stop at U17's i think due to the shortage and thus higher demand for senior footballers?

while in the city, there is enough around the place and another year of junior development can happen (also follows the SANFL)

Has everyone seen this?

Incredible.

How I would love our supporters to introduce this atomsphere at our games.

My dream which is also on my bucket list is to go to a Liverpool game to sing along with them at the game. As the commentator put it, its a shame that i have to commentate over the supporters.

Chokes me up every time,

You'll never walk alone....

Red Bull junkie..... Spectacular!!

One of the defenders will have Axis sprigs on their back after that...... ouch....

 

[Power Raid]

Where is The Smaller Warrior ?

I love that little emo guy.

My daughter was born yesterday, pretty stoked. She has a membership but I haven't registered her yet, so technically she is a PAFC member before she is an Australian citizen. Priorities.

Well done mate.

Ahhhh childbirth it's like watching your favourite pub get demolished.

Watch it. I have that whole protective father thing going. I'll flip a car onto you if you're not careful

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

First of all, congrats Trewth!

Second of all, thanks to the XBox One reveal, I now feel much better about having bought a Wii U at Christmas. I still use it a lot and all the good games are coming this year (3D Mario, Mario Kart, etc.)

I can't believe Microsoft are making games restricted to one account - if you buy a used game, you have to pay almost full price for the license for that game, effectively killing the used game market. Oh, and the fact that they obviously don't give a shit about games, cos THIS CAN CONTROL YOUR TV AND STUFF.

Microsoft went full ******.

If I ever get next gen console it will definitely be the PS4.

And old games aren't compatible. Seriously considering jumping over to the PS4.

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

And old games aren't compatible. Seriously considering jumping over to the PS4.

PS4 isn't backwards-compatible either. But there'll be far more of a focus on games at least. For the last generation, I had the pairing of Wii/PS3 and it worked brilliantly. I needed a bluray player, plus I got sweet exclusives like Heavy Rain for PS3 and the Mario Galaxies alone made the Wii worthwhile. I've already got a Wii U, and when the PS4's price drops I'll look into that, but the PS3 still looks fine to me. But in the end, I think this next gen of consoles won't do much. There's only so much "more power!" can achieve these days.

 

[Peck]

PS3 shits all over xbox360 at this point IMO.

Don't know anything about the next gen, don't really care as I'm pretty fine with what I have. Besides I have about 10 games that I've never finished because I always start playing Dota again.

How can you even play this? Ive tried playing it because a friend of mine does but the 3 times ive tried to learn it 3 times I have given up


Also stoked the Cleveland Cavaliers won the draft lottery and will pick 1st in the 2013 NBA draft

 

[Jonts]

Bought a 360 cause i didn't want to wait for the PS3

PS4 looks the go

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

I have a 360 at the moment. So happy I got it instead of the PS3. Hardly anyone I know has a ps3. Had a quick look at the ONE and I think they are pushing the whole cloud thing a bit too much. Forza and Halo will suck me in though.

I'll wait and see how they go when they are out. I'm content to wait. My console history is Megadrive, N64, PS2, 360. So as you can see I'll jump on the biggest bandwagon at the time

Heres a cool little comparison

http://au.ign.com/wikis/xbox-one/PS4_vs._Xbox_One_Comparison_Chart

Both 8 core processors but the PS4 has a god damn Jaguar in it!

 

[Kickpuncher]

Im a bit of a video game geek so Ive had a lot of consoles including both a 360 and PS3 but like I said when I get around to getting a next gen console it will more than likely be a PS4. Having to buy a license on pre-owned games is ridiculous.

Over the years ive had. (including handhelds)

Nintendo - Gameboy, Gameboy Colour, Gameboy Advanced, Nintendo 64, Nintendo DS
Sony - Playstation 1, Playstation 2, Playstation 3, PSP
Microsoft - XBOX, XBOX 360, PC
Sega - Megadrive, Gamegear

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

One of the reasons I'm not too fussed about the next gen. I kinda bought a 3DS and Pokemon Black 2 lol! Ahh memories. Gotta love impulse buying

 

[Kickpuncher]

Thats probably going to be my next buy just in time for Pokemon X and Y

 

[raman]

If I ever get next gen console it will definitely be the PS4.

 

[Eddie Dingle]

I played Space Invaders at the Blackwood Fish Shop in 1979.

It was a step up from the pinball machine at the Pizza bar down the road but I don't imagine much has changed in video games since then?
