Speaking from a direct link to someone at Dice, I can tell you they learned nothing from BF4, aside from the fact there wont be a BF5 for a while.

We'll see i guess.

In legal terms you cannot be convicted of both. Would be a contradiction of offences, just as you can't be convicted of killing someone and attempting to kill someone. It's either one or the other. .....

Two separate incidents (December 2010 (guilty) and April 2011 (not guilty)) so in your analogy two separate someones, one successfully killed and the other unsuccessfully killed.

I always expect it to be refilled and get a bit perturbed when it isn't, especially as it slows everything down. Harks back to the days when men kept their own glass behind the bar.

I wouldn't call it a waste......

I just hear horror stories on my travels of people spending $1000's with no return when they sell the vehicle.

I do now, but wasn't bothered before I moved to Adelaide and got used to it.

I have absolutely no idea who Poo Eckert is, or what its parents were thinking.

It took me the best part of a year to figure out "I get really a get...".

I asked a few pages back ... I think its a podcast in-joke. .. FishingRick04 coined it?

I love how battlefront has lost all its momentum since the beta release and then going up against the hype from fallout 4.

Good thing battlefront is rubbish and no one will miss a good game by accident.

Not to me! What do I look like, some serious gamer? I'm a casual gamer that is a star wars lover!

Also speaking of US Muscle, be very wary. Lots of death traps being imported. My bro just finished an 8 year rebuild on a 65 convertible impala. Cost him a small fortune to restore to what is now an immaculate muscle car. When he purchased it (direct from the US) he was assured it was like a new car. This is after paying a broker over $1k US for a nut and bolt inspection. campaigners. Looked ok when it turned up but once we got into it, was all sorts of pain. Cracked chassis, no more gaps filler in every crevice.

A lot of the US muscle cars look good but as I said, there are hidden traps. As an example, if you find a LHD version, be aware you cannot modify the thing at all. Bro wanted to put bigger (better) disc brake fronts on the impala. Was told categorically by the tossers down at Regency that if they saw a single modification from standard on a LHD vehicle, instant failure. Even things like non-standard wheels are illegal.

Means lots of enthusiasts end up going down the RHD conversion path.

I think you will find most car clubs would agree you should be allowed to upgrade brakes or anything to make a car safer to drive but common sense and government departments do not go together for some reason. I am talking from a Corvette perspective and my opinion here but you do not need to modify the Vettes from the 60's. When I win Powerball Thursday night I will be getting one of these.

I'd like to think he'd wear the Freo guernsey

Bon was actually living at Semaphore and working the docks at Port when he joined AC/DC. We would've claimed him eventually.

Seen on the news that Sony are ending production of the betamax.

That sure was news to me, I thought it happened 20 years ago!

Yeah, it's really affected me. I need a counsellor now.

It's so hard on me typing a quick reply about Australian history. I think I'll lay down, I think you also missed the whole point that it was the history of nearly every country.


It's a funny thing when you are morally consistent and honest, it really doesn't hurt. Justifying being a twat gets painful mind.

Actually I thought that was the point you missed. Seemed rather strange to come out of nowhere with a rant about Australian history like that, considering the guy just said he was reading a book. Guess we'll chalk that one up to 'lost in translation' or something.

nice vette but soz 68, I already have the winning powerball ticket here in my hands. And I'm greedy, I've already found my 3 new US muscle car toys.

1967 Shelby Mustang GT500



1970 Chevelle SS



And one of my alltime favourites, 1957 Buick Special

The only cassettes I have are for a Tascam 4 track porta-studio I'd say it's circa late 90s, picked it up at a deceased estate sale 2008'ish. Pretty cool to have a piece of analog recording equipment, the ability to record backwards guitar solo's etc. groovy n' far out man

A buddy offered me $600 a few months back but I ain't parting with it, the only bugger is getting more type II blank cassettes when you need them.

I do have a digital 8 track with built in mic's etc. that's great for just quickly putting down ideas etc. but when I'm feeling in the mood I get the condenser mic's out and pretend I'm a recording star hero.

I have a digital 8 track that has been discontinued. When the ac charger shit itself, I just about cried. Still hold on to it in the hope of finding a cord that fits.

Also all this talk of American muscle, and no Transam firebird? No Smokey and the bandit?
