It keeps saying "Validate Windows". So i do and it turns on (Green, protected), For a few seconds before deactivating (Red, at risk) itself and asking me to "Validate".

I HAVE ran a Validation check and done what it asked me to do. My copy of Windows XP is indeed Valid.

What the hell is going on?!

Ok. After thinking it over i'm deciding to buy a GH game, but considering i've been an avid fan of Rock Band since i got number 2, i'm having a hard time choosing which Guitar Hero should i get.

Smash Hits or Guitar Hero 5?

I was sent a worrying email today. From ____@domain.net and the subject was "testing IP on ________"

What was this?..i didn't open it.

Ok. Judas Priest fans will know who the "Painkiller" is. Or if you've heard of the song Painkiller etc..

The Painkiller itself is one of a series of fictional messiahs created by Judas Priest. The Painkiller is described as a metal messiah sent to the world to destroy evil and rescue mankind from destruction. The Painkiller is believed to be inspired by the fallen angel from the Sad Wings of Destiny album cover that Judas Priest recorded early in their musical years. He also makes an appearance along with the Hellion (from Screaming for Vengeance) on the cover of Metal Works '73-'93, and a reappearance on the cover of Angel of Retribution.

The most noticeable feature of the Painkiller, besides his metal body is that he 'rides the metal monster'; a motorcycle with a dragon for the chassis and two circular saws for wheels.

So who'd win in a fight?

MW2 is just as overhyped as Left 4 Dead 2 or Halo: ODST was.

All three make bad games. Fact, COD has never been the same since 4 (which was the last good COD game IMO)

For example. I was babysitting my cousin when Lazytown came on.

Worst piece of crap i've ever seen.....

It seems like they've replaced all the good oldies with second rate dirge.

Which 360 game do you think will take the No.1 spot in time for christmas?

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (overrated *cough*)

Left 4 Dead 2

Assassins Creed 2

The Beatles: Rock Band

Or something else?

Which one do you think is alot more tougher, takes more of a toll on the body etc...

Recently i switched to Talktalk broadband as my provider as BT cost me too much. But i want to know is 40gb enough for Xbox Live...

P.S. My sister streams Youtube videos in HQ alot too.

Recently, for the past day or two, my monitor refuses to display anything until i turn it off and on again until it reaches the Windows Welcome Screen.

This is bugging me, what is the problem?

I'm having trouble logging into MSN. Yet when i use an old account it lets me get online, what seems to be the problem, are they doing updates or are the servers busy or what?

Who else apart from me HATES, people singing in the accent of the place they came from?

Examples are....

Lily Allen - London accent, ******* ANNOYING.

The Proclaimers - Scottish accent, alot more bare able than London

I worked hard on it so be nice.

Storyline

It starts off four weeks before Backlash. Max (My created Face superstar) signs a contract with Raw after he appeared on ECW for awhile. His next few matches that he wins against Chavo, Evan Bourne and The Miz earns him a United States Championship match at Backlash against Kofi Kingston. But he loses this match and has to go through the same route he took to gain a Championship match.

While this is happening, his Father (Gerald, a Heel), Takes control over Raw after Vince scraps the Guest Hosts. Max ends up heading to The Bash in a Triple Threat match against Carlito and Kofi. In which he wins this time after pinning Carlito to win the US Championship.

Max demands a shot at the WWE Championship, which he gets after taking part in a Fatal-4-Way with Orton, Cena and HBK. He wins this and heads to Night of Champions to face the current WWE Champion, John Cena. He wins but, due to Max using his finishing move (The Unprettier) he automatically loses the match because his Father banned its use on Raw , without telling Max. He's furious by this and takes the issue to the Board of Directors. They decide that Geralds call was fair play and the move was indeed banned. (Montreal Screwjob anyone?)

Because of his frustration, Max ends up ruining any Championship match by taking out the Superstars involved. Gerald decides to counter this by taking Max out of action. The way he does this is he hires Legacy to take him out in his match against Jericho after running him down with a car beforehand.

Max is out of action for a few weeks, Coming back at Survivor Series to take out Legacy after their match against DX. Gerald doesn't take kindly to this, and promises to give Max his shot at the WWE Championship if and only if he can win the Royal Rumble match, with entry No.1 to boot. Max, yes, wins this match. But yet again, Gerald comes to spoil the party, saying Max's entry was null and void, yet again screwing him of his chance.

But Max contacts Vince to get that shot that he wants. Vince, having more power than Gerald has, decides to give Max the shot if he can beat Gerald, Big Show and Orton in a cage match at No Way Out.

Max wins and heads to Wrestlemania to face CM Punk and Cena in a Hell in a Cell match for the Championship. Eventually, Max wins the match. Gerald comes out to spoil it again, but Vince comes at that moment and fires Gerald on the spot.

It ends with Max making a speech after Wrestlemania that he's going back to ECW, and taking the WWE Championship with him.

Thoughts please?, oh, sorry for any errors made. First time i ever wrote a storyline XD;;

This storyline is about the struggles that a Midcarder goes through to earn a shot at the big dogs.

Max's Theme by the way is "No More Words" by Endeverafter

Gerald's Theme is "Fuel" by Metallica

I might actually make a video of it. Theme songs for the PPV's if i do.

Backlash - "Helter Skelter" by The Beatles

The Bash - "I Stand Alone" by Godsmack

Night of Champions - "Cyanide" by Metallica

Survivor Series - "Take Me" by Papa Roach

Royal Rumble - "All Nightmare Long" by Metallica

No Way Out - "Dead Embryonic Cells" by Sepultura

Wrestlemania - "Tornado of Souls" by Megadeth or "Hot For Teacher" by Van Halen

After playing it i found it was absolutely amazing. But what was your favourite bit about the game.

The songlist?

The Dreamscapes?

The Harmony Parts?

For me it was everything xD

Judging by the track list and the gameplay. Which game do you think is better?

Guitar Hero series

or

Rock Band series

List the pros and cons of each game if you like.

Personally, i think Rock Band. Rock Band doesn't have too many games, better quality of songs, their only band dedicated game was TRUELY dedicated to the band. Like

Guitar Hero Metallica had a bunch of Metallica songs, but had a bunch of Non- Metallica songs.

The Beatles Rock Band was just that, The Beatles, nothing else

I was talking to a friend earlier about old bands such as The Beatles, Judas Priest, Metallica , Def Leppard etc. And i was convinced that music is dying in this day and age. You have bands such as...

3OH!3

Metro Station

Jonas Brothers

Pussycat Dolls

The Ting Tings

etc

And Artists such as

Miley Cyrus

Katy Perry

Lily Allen

etc

So, is music as we know it dying?. Rock music, pop music, all music?

There are GOOD new artists and bands, but these are often over seen.

Bullet For My Valentine

Green Day

Nickelback (They have more talent than Metro Station at least)

Hollywood Undead

Gallows

These bands are often misjudged and hated so often, when the fact remains they arn't backed by Disney or whatever.

So is Music dying?

Was Helter Skelter by The Beatles , the first metal song or did it set the ground for metal music.

Ozzy Osbourne said himself that he's inspired by The Beatles. So maybe this is where Helter Skelter comes in.

Me and my friends are planning a full blown cosplay party at Halloween so i'm going as Max from Dark Chronicle (Dark Cloud 2).

But the problem is i cannot find his outfit anywhere. I've tried all the cosplay shops i know, is there any store that sells them (ACTUALLY sells them) Or do i have to make my own.

If i have to make my own, please send the instructions to Night-1991@hotmail.com

I'll be happy for you to help me with this and i'd be greatful.
