I wear shorts whenever the sun is out. Love to get some air on my white legs.

Nobody interested?

Anyway, here is a picture of the artwork done by Joe Mad before it is put into the game:

Here is what some of his art looks like in the game:

Try saying 'halal meat' without sounding like a Geordie greeting someone.

I think I have mentioned this game a couple of times before yet I don't remember making a thread on it. Anyway, this game (Darksiders: Wrath of War) looks as if it could be quite good in my opinion. I'm not sure on the release date as it seems to keep getting pushed back.

It appears to mix some elements of Zelda, DMC and Tomb Raider from what people seem to be saying. The footage I have seen so far looks really good. The artwork is done by Joe Mad aswell, who any comic fan will already know from his work in Uncanny X-Men (plus others like Battle Chasers). There is a link to one video of it here , and there are others there too.

Anyone else think this looks good? I can see why some people may have concerns as it looks like a regular hack n slash. I think it looks as if it could be fun though and the various things it mixes could go well together.

Sorry to lower the tone but I found these two quite amusing:

I found the following to be good in one way or another:

Shows exactly what it says on the tin.

This one shows underwater telegraph cables in 1901.

Shows the extent of Roman rule throughout a large chunk of Ancient History.

Very old map of the world, although I am not sure of when it dates from.

Well done to Barca, totally deserved (even if they shouldn't have been there).

Why shouldnt they have been there?

The SF at The Bridge was bordering on a fix, I don't think even Liverpool have had a game go that ridiculously one-sided in terms of reffing decisions.

I don't think they should have been in the final, but they deserved the final win without question.

I do think they deserved to be in the final when looking at the way they play football. Although some of the decisions made against Chelsea were awful. Yet Barca should have had a penalty in the first leg. It swings in roundabouts although I do see what you are saying.

At least Barca haven't had a rich sugar daddy take over and turn them from a non-existant club into league challengers (like Chelski). Fair play to Barca on the night as I think they have been the best team in Europe all season. They could only play what was put infront of them and they could only accept the decisions made by the refs.

What about Puyol? Captain fantastic. Hmmmm, think I'd have gone for Xavi or Iniesta as MotM though.

Barca schooled them, why cant we play like that!?!

In a few years......

Well done to Barca, totally deserved (even if they shouldn't have been there).

Why shouldnt they have been there?

Maybe he thought they were going to get stabbed before the match? It is in Rome after all.

no im not a man united fan,are you one of the many man united haters? who loves to see them loose just for the sake of it?not exactly a football lesson 2 united errors.

Yes I am a Man Utd hater because 90% of their supporters are glory hunters. I also think it was a footballing lesson that Barca taught them tonight. If you thought it was just two errors that led to Barca winning then you obviously must have turned off for the rest of the match.

Barca were a class above Man Utd, simple as. Whether I hate them or not has nothing to do with it. Barca were simply much better and deserved the win....

Congratulations Barca!

Thoroughly enjoyed the game. The best side by a mile won, if anything the scoreline flatters Manchester United.

I agree. I have really enjoyed it too. May not have been much of a competition, but watching Barca play with such style has been worth it.

dunno what game your all watching,man united been useless one of those games where things dont go there way and they loose there head but barcelona aint exactly been great either infact average 2 goals from very sloppy defending,Hey but i guess platini is happy.

Are you a Man Utd fan in disguise? Sure Man Utd haven't been great but that has largely been down to the way Barca have played. Their defensive line has been high and they have been constantly pushing the Man Utd players every time they have the ball. Plus when Barca have been attacking they constantly look dangerous.

They have given Man Utd a footballing lesson, so I don't know what game you have been watching in all honesty...

Barcelona have got this one all sewn up. Best team in Europe this year no doubt about it.

Very true. Their midfield and forwards are just pure class.

Anyone else think SAF made a huge mistake blowing £30m on Berbatov?

Yes, we'll have him for 10.

Barca are making Man Utd look like a complete joke of a team in all honesty. It's great!

boring final.

May be boring due to it not being much of a competition, yet some of the football Barca have played has been beautiful to watch.

Dirty ginger word removed....

Had my Barca top on today and think I shall be wearing it again tomorrow. Rub it in a bit. You never know though, Man Utd could undeservedly get back into this. Here's to hoping Barca can hold on. Oh and get Bojan on!

Barcelona are playing some sexy football. They really need a second though, as we all know how jammy Man Utd only need one clear chance and they will put it away. COME ON BARCA, FINISH THEM!!!!

CL wins every single time. Without a shadow of a doubt.

I'm in my Barca top. Ready for a day of Spanish loving. I think Man Utd may win but it won't stop me cheering for Barca. COME ON YOU SPANIARDS!!

I dinged Level 48 last night - yippeeeeeeeee.

Think that is quite a good mixture of films. I could go on forever, but this should get you started. These films are all great in my opinion and each one is worth a watch.

I will be cheering Barca on and wearing a Barcelona top on the day. In no way do I want Man Utd to win, whether they are an English club or not.

I do think that Man Utd may just nick it though. It all depends on Barca's defence in my opinion. If they can step it up then they should be able to win. If they can't then I can see Man Utd getting the win.
