A E-MAGAZINE!

For PSP maybe? or just a E-Magazine for on the site etc.

I think it would be a great idea, could just make one for Xboxic, Playstatic and Nintendic.

Are you aware of how much time and effort that'd require?!

And what would be the point when we can deliver news faster in posts, rather than gathering it all up into an E-Zine?

Just think of the site as a massive, open-world magazine and you're there.

Yeah but a e-mag would be fun.

and its pretty simple, logo, frontpage, gfx, smart layout and content.

No offence and all, but do you not think that sounds a little like "oh i see people dont like my idea, so i'll say that wasnt actually my idea so people dont dislike me cause i said something a bit silly and pointless"?

And whats with your sig? "I DONT SOUND LIKE I DO ON LIVE"
1.Noone sounds exactly like they do on live.
2.Seeing as everyone elses voice is slightly distorted too, why you do feel the need to point it out?
3. Not a single person that meets you on live will give two shits about what your voice actually sounds like so why is that such a big issue for you? noone cares what anyone sounds like...?:?

...Okay rant over..

You do it on behalf of me. I really liked them, now with more people coming to the site than when compared to when it was the old-skool days, could be a good feature. Xboxic needs more 'editorial' features, to seperate it from the run-of-the-mill news site.

We'll have coverage for a couple of the bigger conventions over the summer, hope that's enough specials for you. I'd like to do more specials as much as you like to read them but it's hard coming up with ideas and good content.

Trailer Trash roundups are a shitload of work with the layout and the links and all, and they werent getting enough hits compared to regular news items so that's why we stopped doing them. I'll see if Messiah has the time to pick them up again.

Ugh. To be honest you don't know what the fuck I think in my head so you can not prove your comment and nor do I care about it because I was meant to post a thread like this for about 2 days when I got the idea and then at about 3am when I was bored I decided to and couldnt really remember the idea so I thought of the e-zine.

And I just like to point out I dont sound like XBL as I sound like a gay mass child murdering 40yr old through the headset and its horrible. Dont bother ranting about me at what I say, do, write etc. because I wont take any of it on board, your just someone who's thoughts, views etc. i see in pixels to me and hear through a peice of plastic. Not flesh and blood i would actually listen to and take advice from.

Wow.. taking it to heart there little boy. Shit. "i dont care what you say yet i feel the uncontrollable need to justify myself to you." yeah okay. lol.
And you REALLY dont sound like "a gay mass child murdering 40yr old" you sound more like a 15/16 year old, and considering youre 14, be fucking happy your voice has broken, most havnt. and the whole "i wont take any of it on board wahhh wahhh wahhhhhh" you sound like a little whiney bitch there...sorry, but you do, and go on, tell me how you dont care about what i think, thats cool, because i didnt post that post intending to hurt your pride or whatever, i was just stating my opinion, if that makes you cry like that, so be it.

The only reason I replied back to that is because I am terribly bored and tired after school (AKA: The thing you dropped out of, which pretty much is the key to a successful life for most people)

And I was saying I literally sounded like that, I just sound weird on the headset.

LOL!!!!!!!! play the drop out card, jay had less qualifications at my age than i do now yet hes fine, wow you go school,arnt you cool. and yes, you are a little whiney bitch at times, and if thats due to being a spoiled little rich biatch, sort it out, dont take any money off your parents for 2 weeks, try survive on your own money, see how that works out for you. but dont try insulting me with the whole "drop out" bullshit, i didnt say anything insulting, i was joint pointing out a few things, if you want to try insult me, you dont live over far away, get some balls and do it to my face, allow the bullshut anonymity.

Yeah don't worry with the live thing...I sound higher pitched rather than deeper - except in Halo2 which is odd, so im not sure how Halo2 interacts with live, but my real voice is heard lound and clear in Halo2.

_Chris_ does also have more qualifications than when I did at his age...I can confirm it. Im up for school level qualifications being dropped, Im living proof that you can be anything you want without those crappy school qualifications which schools hide behind. I wanted to be an Accountant and I am an Accountant...success is drive and determination,and is about risk taking...no period of your life will ever stay the same.

I was a piss poor kid from a council estate. I lived around drugs, prostitution, heavy crime...amongst other things and I left school when I was 12.

I have no GCSE's, No A-Levels, but im a fully qualified accountant with a stainless steel and platinum rolex, a 40K Mercedes E-Class Advantgarde 07 model and a chauffer because I dont actually drive. The price to pay for it is a busy life where I physically work 2 days a week and mentally work 7...plus Im part of a team of 3 who do the same as I do.

Life isn't about school...

You can whine at times, but I take into account your 14 or 15...everyone does at that age. It's your period of finding your individuality and your god given right to speak how you feel...but everyone is different and image isn't everything.

I nuked it October 1st. Noone was really using it and we were opening the PS and Ninty sites only in the new look, plus it was dimensionally incompatible with the way we'd been writing items since April 2006. Backwards incompatibility can only go so far :)

Yes, due to some rather severe security issues I upgraded from 3.6.4 to latest 3.6.7 service release. I regularly upgrade, but usually wait until I've got a good security issue as an excuse.
