[B]The american version? Screw that. The british version is the only real version. [/B][/QUOTE]
I hear that. No presenter can beat Robert Llewellyn pulling faces and making constant references to how cool V8 engines are! :D
Seriously, the first few series were by definition the most original, but as of late, the concepts have REALLY gone up a gear. One other great scenario was to design a catapult that could throw a MINI the furthest distance. One of the team's designed a 50ft high trebuchet, which self-destructed spectucularly when they attempted the task! :p
Currently showing on 4 is a SC Spinoff called "Scrappy Races" in a parody of the classic cartoon series, where 5 teams had to design and build their own ROAD-WORTHY vehicles from scratch. In addition, they have to drive around the country, and face eachother in a myriad of different contests, but have a day to refit and customise their vehicles for the task ahead!
By far the most entertaining group of lads are the "Barley-Pickers", a bunch of farmers from the westcountry. (Like myself, I might add.) [b]Proper Job![/b] :D

Cool, which Final Fantasy have you got? I found Resident Evil quite hard! Kept running out of weapons, this was on Playstation 1.
Am playing Buffy 2 on Xbox now. Great graphics but lack of saves are few and far between which is crappy doo da for me.

I'll try that, I'm just not sure about the card...I looked at it like you suggested last night and for the s-video port it said video i/o so I'm guessing it goes both ways...yet the website says the card only supports video out. I need a cable/adaptor from composite to s-video but I'm only going to get one if they are cheap...in case it doesnt work.

Your video card or that tuner card? Cause that tuner card has more inputs than I know what do with.
OK, so I lie. I actually have every input on it used. But it has a lot. It supports s-video in (what I use for my PS2), composite in, coax in (what I use for broadcast TV, not that I ever watch it), AM/FM aerial for radio, and some other plugs that I can't remember what they're for.

[B]I have only tried the Resident Evil remake on the gamecube. I thought it was good but Eternal Darkness was better.
Now all I have to do is find a good way to hook up my gc/xbox to a monitor.

I not heard of Eternal Darkness. I bet you all played Halo. This for me was the quickest game for me to finish!
Hey Biggles have you turned your text green "The man without a face" part? I swear it wasn't green before?! Lol!

Eternal Darkness is similar to Resident Evil...but as you encounter more monsters you start going insane and wierd things start to happen (such as the tv bleeding or switching off). And yes, I have Halo.
There are alot more but too many to list and I'm sure I havn't seen them all.

No, you're just imagining things. It's always been red.

Sounds like the latest season might be going uphill a bit then. The last season I saw consisted mainly of variations on "get a car running".
