California is also the place that Death Metal originated. It has now split up into three sub-sub-genres, grindcore (most american stuff e.g. slipknot, obitury, morbid angel), noiscore (everywhere, e.g. Cult of Luna), and Gothenburg (I'll bet you can guess where that came from, best sub-sub-genre...

Wow, I'd have never noticed that, but the fact that remains is, the fusion gun is the best gun you can buy, rather than find, or make.

Privateer 1 for me. After I worked out how to play that one without dying (I was only 10 at the time) I moved on to all the other WC games. Ahhh Happy Days.

Today I learned that there are more sheep in wales than there are people. There are around 5 million people in wales and around 9 million sheep. There are also more chickens than there are people in the world, and there are more cars (now) than there were people in 1870.

I realise you probably have much more important things to work on but I was wondering if there was any mileage in a Confed vs. Kilrathi multiplayer game. My idea is that you have two teams, confed and kilrathi and you fight each other capturing systems until one side wins. Just an idea. Any...

Today I learned that when body building you should consume 1 gramme of protein for every pound that you weigh daily.

If you think that's useful then you need to know this: If you had the population of china walk past you in single file then it would never end due to the rate of reproduction.

Pfft! Don't be silly. Iprefer to have women swooning at my amazing charm and wit. On to my fact for today: A dime has 118 ridges.

Or, you could save your 20 euros and buy an optical mouse from dabs.com for £3.50

Or, you could just not bother using the cloak except when you need it. Using the cloak to do cargo missions and making lots of money is easy but it's sooooooooo boring. Personally i prefer to use mine to get through asteroids and get myself out of sticky situations. Also, when cloaked you can...

I doubt sony will win the hand held war (although it doesn't exist yet), apparently the battery life is only supposed to be around four hours. With a battery life like that, the PSP will cease to be portable.

Apparently the muscles women find most attractive (according to men's health) are the abs, glutes, calfs, shoulders and back.

I'm not certain of this but the maximum number of missiles per missile mount is usually 10. If you add any the auto tracking capability to the missile launchers, then you won't be able to hold as many missiles. When you're on the mounts field of [yourship].csv, you will notice that where you...

I think the 360 is supposed to use a tiple core intel chip. The PS3 uses a power PC chip. Which BTW has ten cores and should rival the speed of supercomputers 10 years ago. Anyone fancy rendering toy story? :)

Actually, a nerd is a geek with very limited social skills, whereas geeks do have social lives. Still it's good to know that I'm a geek really :D . Which brings on another thought, is techy just another name for a geek that PR people use so as not to offend anyone?

I have always thought of myself as a techy, but am often called a geek. However, those people are unaware of the difference between a geek and a nerd. At the moment I believe that geeks do have social lives, but mainly hang out with other geeks, whereas techies are people who are just as into...

I play on PCs only (although I may be tempted to get an Xbox 360) :p

You had to promise to send in bug reports before you could get hold of the beta. Anyway, the beta is supposed to be released in 3 days so it's a bit late now, but it does mean you don't have to wait so long.

Apparently the QE2 cruise liner burns 1 gallon of fuel for every inch it moves.

I'd have to aggree with that. Everything after Dave Mustaine left was a bit naff really. Listen to Megadeth instead. As for the idea of a game using metallica for voice overs and stuff, it's probably going to be crap as they tend to be used to cover up the fact the game isn't all that good.
