  1. It's looking great Luke.
  2. I really find that playing with a 'stronger' team much harder. With Wigan I was borderline top 4 but I switch to Fulham (who in my opinion is much stronger and the game seems to think so as well) and I'm struggling to make the top half after 4 games.
  3. I can now officially win against the computer on Legendary. I usually tend to hold out to the last 10 minutes before scoring though.
  4. Yeah, I also found it really hard to begin with but I'm guessing that I'm getting used to it as I've now had 5-1 victories over Sunderland and a 2-0 against Chelsea, so I'll probably up my difficulty to add to the realism.
  5. I'm definitely finding my game with Wigan much more enjoyable than with Arsenal. With Wigan I have more of a chance to completely build my own squad and develop the team but when I play with Arsenal, the whole team is basically built for me and I felt bad whenever I'd sell a player. I'm currently 8th placed with Wigan (and considering that the league objective was to not be relegated, I'm very happy). Brought in Mark Noble from West Ham for something around £10 mil, Aaron Ramsey on loan, Stefano Okaka (who's an absolute beast) for £5 mil and a random defender from Inter on loan as well. Undefeated at home so far although I've had so pretty big losses away from home like a 4-0 away loss to City. Coming up to January and I'm still in the League Cup! So all is going well. I'm only playing on professional though, so I may switch up to World Class in the near future.
  6. RIP Gary Speed

  7. Got bored of the Arsenal manager mode and created a new game with Wigan. Won't post any stats yet (let's see how far I go with this one first ) but I enjoy playing with a club like Wigan. Less pressure to succeed and any wins a big win.
  8. haha, all my Brazilians were doing so poorly that I don't think i'll ever buy Brazlians again!
  9. Just got Fifa 12 last night and have been playing career mode every waking hour since. Currently halfway through my first season with Arsenal and my team looks like this: Van Persie (86) Robinho (84) Kaka (85) ----- Gourcuff (82) ---- Wilshere (83) ---- Ramsey (77) Gibbs (76) ---- Vermaelen (84) ---- Mertesacker (82) ---- Sagna (83) Fabianski (78) Also got Thierry Henry for 8 mil ($) and have other players like Walcott and Arteta on the bench. Sold off all the players I thought were rubbish like Gervinho, Chamakh, Djourou and Almunia and also got offered 24 million from Newcastle for Alex Song which I accepted. Spent all the money I got from transfers plus the $40 mil i started with to buy the likes of Kaka, Robinho and Gourcuff. Currently sitting 6th in the league and Van Persie has easily scored over 80% of my goals. Robinho and Kaka have both been fairly average and kinda regret buying them.
  10. Male (in order): Jeremy Piven Hugh Laurie Johnny Depp Ed Westwick Will Smith Don't really have any favorite female actress. I do admire a lot of their beauty though.
  11. My friends think that the song (tiptoe through the tulips - tiny tim) in this part of the movie is just hilarious. In all honestly, the film clips that have been made for the actual song are probably scarier than it's use in Insidious (Tiny Tim's no charmer).
  12. Fix You - Coldplay Have probably listened to it 6 times in a row now.
  13. I was looking to see how the new SoccerPulse was doing (I new that a new site was there since the crash) and got redirected here.
  14. hahaha, I haven't had much time yet to play against the computer (it's mostly been with friends thus far) but I've heard it's incredibly hard to defend against any half decent team. Against human opposition though, I haven't found it to be much of a problem though.
  15. I'd consider myself a pretty decent FIFA 11 player and I would've thought that the conversion to 12 would be pretty bumpy to begin with but I won all the games I played and felt that offensively, besides the ability to dribble pass players with more ease and slightly harder passing, it's the same game. Defensively on the over hand, it's a whole new story. I've been so used to just holding down x (or a for those of us who have to suffer through the use of an X-Box) and then just gaining the possession with ease but this new defensive system is really good. I like the fact that it's actually much harder to now retain possession and actually makes me enjoy playing the game the more than I did 11. It's now actually exciting to defend (last ditch tackles are next to goal in terms of excitement for me)! Found it quite funny that Arsenal's still considered a good team in the game. Still a solid 5 stars.

  18. Promises - Nero
  19. Will Smith. I think that he's highly underrated by some people because he plays in a lot of big blockbuster movies but he's honestly one of the best actors of all time. He's really universal in the roles he can play (from Hancock to Persuit of Happyness for example) and is just an all round talented person. His acting can actually bring me to tears.
  20. REM - Man on the Moon
  21. Entourage's last episode aired yesterday and it's a really fun and 'chilled' show to watch. Really good characters and actors (don't know if any of you are familiar with Jeremy Piven, but he's a dam good actor!) and is well worth watching. Plenty of real life celebrities (Eminem, Jessica Alba etc.) appear on the show and it's basically about the lives of a famous actor (Vincent Chase) and a group of friends he hangs around with who act as his entourage (those with a keen eye for detail will note that this is connected with the name of the show ) Wouldn't recommend it if you like good story lines or realism in TV shows though.
  22. Don't know if anyone here has watched/is watching Suits, but it well worth it in my opinion. It's based around a law firm were two characters (Harvey Spector, a successful and suave lawyer who's a senior partner at the firm and Mike Ross who's got no law degree but is naturally smart with an eidetic memory). The show's like a cross between House (except in Law) and Sherlock Holmes. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who wants to watch a new show (season one is still currently airing in the US and Australia).
  23. Stereo Hearts - Gym Class Heroes
