Didn't they have a game in the 90s? I think it came with one of the albums when Bruce left.

Edit* They did have the Ed Hunter game in 1999.

Maiden sucked when Bruce left, but Bruce put out some amazing solo albums with ex-Maiden guitarist Adrian Smith until they both rejoined Maiden in 2000.

I was disappointed when Bruce left which was when I stopped listening to Iron Maiden and I started back up again when he rejoined.

I fucking love this Xbox 360 controller adapter thing I got for the PS3. If only I had bought this years ago. Its just a small box on a usb chord, you plug it into the PS3 just like a normal controller cable, then plug the 360 controller into that, and BOOM. Instant 360 controller action on the PS3! Simple as that.

I don't care what anyone says, the 360 pad just smokes the PS3 pad (and personally I think the 360 pad is better than the Xbone pad) so being able to easily play PS3 games with this is amazing. I tried out a bit of Mass Effect with it and it works exactly like you're playing it on the 360 (just with PS button prompts, obviously). Well worth the $16. Except I got it for free because it got lost in the mail for like 4 days, so Amazon refunded my money & just gave it to me which was very cool of them.

My dual shock 3 (like my dual shock 2 before it) is completely shot.  The left thumb-stick is very loose and the top spins.  It affects my enjoyment of games and now that I think about it, it stops me from playing many of the PS3 games I want to be playing.  On the other hand my 360 controllers have hardly been used and I love how ergonomically correct they feel.  I'm going to be looking into an adaptor like that I think.

My manual brake on my car was frozen this morning.  Hrm  First time I've had this happen to me since I started driving a car 14 years ago.  It took me an hour and a half to get the brakes to thaw, in the end the sun came through and at least took care of one of the two frozen brakes.  Luckily for me I had concentrated my efforts up to that point on the other brake.

Think I'll park in first gear as of now, instead of relying on my handbrake...

I've been parking in 1st gear for about 6 years now. lol

What the fuck I have never not parked in 1st gear!

Seems like you basically have 2 kinds of people, gear parkers and brake parkers.  Kind of like cat and dog people.  If you google the problem, EVERYONE will of course be telling you you're doing it wrong and should park in 1st gear, but most people I've spoken about it so far all use their manual brake.

To make matters worse I couldn't even use my manual brake this morning.  Apparently the cable froze over so now it's stuck.  Good thing I parked in gear yesterday.  What baffles me is how this is all happening to me now.  I've never had any issues with this before, and it has been a lot colder in past years than it is now.

I think that may be a typo, if it's sitting above Rare Replay.  It may be 270 000 odd something.  Also ... what's wrong with people not buying Rare Replay?  Do they not like buying a fuckton of great games for one sweet price?

As for giving a rat's ass about Tearaway ... It came free with my Vita.  It was my one of two games for a brand new system which I was eager to play and even under those circumstances it didn't grab me.  I mean ... it looks nice, it looks clever but  ... it's just so boring I could cry.

Come On ... Drinkbox please just finish off and release Severed so that I have a reason to play the stupid Vita and for once finish a game on it.

Man those are some sad numbers for Rare Replay & Tomb Raider. I expected 1mil for Rare Replay & somewhere around Halo sales for Tomb Raider.

I dont get it. Why park in 1st gear? I'm assuming manual? Wont the car just stall when you start it unless you have the clutch depressed?
