OP said think, so i gave what I thought :tongue:

Which exactly did you not agree with?
Or was it all of them!

I went for summer because we were promised lovely summers over and over again, and they have all (apart from 2003, if i remember correctly) been poo.

yeah I specifically quoted those three out of your LONG list.

Without writing an essay justifying why I THINK you're wrong, 'summer' is what you make of it, 'driving a car' is just part of being an adult and 'itunes' is the best piece of software since internet explorer.

most tv, most music, most social networks :colonhash:

harry potter

current generation consoles are extremely overrated. The ps3 both didnt impress me a fraction of the amount that ps2 impressed me when it was newly released. The improvement in graphics/power between the current generation and the previous generation is much less than the improvement between the previous generation and the generation before that eg ps1 and ps2

when the ps2 became popular and i had it, it near enough made ps1 games unplayable, although the ps3 hasnt taken my breath away so to speak- id still play ps2 games from time to time on a non hdtv obviously, and the still look and play good eg mgs2, silent hill 2 etc
