    If I'm reading it right, both cameras are HD, so it should at least be a decent resolution for HD.

    what "all the things" it does less than a frigging iPhone and you pay more.
    That wasn't the debate though, you stated it was an overpriced ereader, I asked you to show me an e-reader that can the same things as an iPad 2 for less money.

    I get you don't like it, fair play to you, but at least be consistent in your arguments, dude, makes it all the better for an intelligent conversation

    Over those? Probably not much. It's lighter and more portable than the average laptop, and has a bigger screen than all smartphones, but for functionality, it's not that much better.

    Calling it an overpriced e-reader is somewhat ridiculous though

    Show me an ereader that can do all the things the ipad 2 can, for a normal ereader price, and I'll be more inclined to agree.
  4. Oh dear, it's really not going well!!

    I mean, she was ok in Austin Powers and all that, but, no, just no.

    What is it with Warner Brothers?? Can they not treat their own damn characters correctly??

    Pfft, if it lets me read hundreds of comics on the move, I'm all for it

    I can do that now on my phone, true, but it's a much smaller screen, iPad sizes look a lot better for comics.

    Daaaaammmmmmn!

    I really hate a lot of the things Apple do, hate the iTunes, iPod, iPhone.....but daaaaammmmn, I want this!!!

  8. Currently in discussions with other DJ's from Rogues Radio, we might be fielding a team as well, if things go according to plan....so, you know, you'll have some cannon fodder
  9. My vote went to the Peter David, Hulk run, awesome stuff.
  10. Excellent episode!

    Must admit, I'm curious how she figured out about Batman! Of course, she could be talking about several other heroes, Blue Beetle for instance?
  11. Well, I'll be gutted if we lose Community, i think it's one of the best shows out there.

    Never understood the logic of putting it up against something like Big Bang Theory which is gonna have such an overlap of viewer demographics! Makes no sense.

    RIP Mr. McDuffie

    Damn.

    My family and I love superheroes, love all the DCU animated stuff. My 7 yr old is a MASSIVE fan of Static Shock, watched them all with us. Not cos he's black, or white, or any of that stuff, he's 7, he really doesn't care or even think about tbh, just that he loves Static and Gear and all of it.

    I know it's not really the same as the comics were, but for my 7 yr old, Static is all kinds of awesome, so just for that, this death is particularly poignant.
  13. Nicholas Courtney has passed away, aged 81

    Massive loss to fans of anything Doctor Who related, the man was a legend and still playing the role up to last year in Sarah Jane Adventures.
  14. Another look at the cossie here, more darker and without the crotch darkness

    Not sure, but those look like web-shooters on his wrist as opposed to the natural ones of the last movies. Preferred the natural ones, made more sense to me.
  15. I love that this thread comes up from time to time, always fun to see what people choose

    Mine has always been the same, Coin would be played by John Cusack, playing Coin as a little less neurotic version of his character from High Fidelity, with a scientist mind to keep him accurate to Coin
  16. Oh Wabbit, you hopeless romantic, you

    Anyway, it doesn't have to be a romantic couple, it could be any couple you like, I know of one player who wants to go as Donkey and Shrek

    Anyway, as an extra bonus, Avatea has told us that the winners will also get special in-game titles as well, so get those thinking caps on the for the event this Sunday!

  18. No questions from anyone? No one wants to know what it's like to be a Community Moderator on these forums? Or wants just to ask what her favourite superhero is??

    Still a few days for people to ask, the interview will be recorded this weekend, so shout out people
  19. Another big name to go and a creator of one of THE most iconic theme tunes ever!

    Also, just found out his band, the John Barry Seven, started their career in my home city! Apparently his father owned a theatre in Hull and they played on stage here.

    Seems to be a fair few big names go recently
  20. Hey all

    At the risk of cross-posting, I thought I'd post this on here as well as I know a lot of the US players might not read our thread in the EU forums

    Anyway, this week, Rosie will be doing Rogues Radio first Big Name Interview with none other than City Of Heroes moderator and sweetheart, Avatea!

    And best of all, you all get to ask the questions!

    Simply post in the thread on our forums here with your questions and we'll pick the best ones and put them to her during the interview. Bear in mind, Avatea is the Community Moderator for the official City Of Heroes forums, rather than one of the game developers, so questions that deal with her range of expertise will be more likely to be picked than ones asking about whether we're going to get this powerset with that archetype and will Issue 21 be set in space and the like!

    Rosie will also be asking her usual range of random questions as well, but the more we get, the better!

    Ask away, folks!!
  21. An epic meeting of two lovely ladies!

  22. Seems Henry Cavill has won the role of the Man Of Steel.

    Honestly, can't say I know him that well, anyone know much else he's been in?

    Seems to look the part though, so fingers crossed!
  23. Never watched the series, but, this is cool

    Now I can see a whole fleet of Sci-Fi ships, dangling from a MASSIVE Xmas tree
