The only bug bear I had with this game is the voice acting. The voice acting on the PSX with Mei Ling and Wolf had proper accents, but now in the remake there are american. I didn't like that, however like Eva says, it is a good game, and the ninja entrance cutscene is beautiful

Ah yes, the accents which they mysteriously lost in TTS. Natasha the nuclear expert also lost her accent. Actually Meiling was supposed to be American born and raised, it made absolutely no sense for her to have a Chinese accent.

Inside Man

Not the gay movie I was looking for, but apparently this Denzel version is pretty good as well...

Got it for free when I bought 2 shower lotions (Dove)

One Last Dance

IronMonkey · Post by **IronMonkey** » 29 Apr 2007, 20:46

I just ordered Spider-Man 2.1 (uncut R1 version) for £7.99 from CD-Wow.

I'm quite tempted by that Beverly Hills Cop box set from Play for £5. It seems like a bargain. Is it in a plastic case or a cardboard one? I seem to remember quite liking the first two films but I think the 3rd was quite poor. Am I right?

I think BHC is a digipack.
Is the UK Spiderman 2.1 cut?

Yes. BHC1&2 = great, BHC3 = meh.

Yeah it is, in exactly the same spot that the UK theatrical version was cut. A headbut has been replaced with a punch in the UK version. I've seen the UK Spider-Man 2.1 for about £8 in Woolworths but for the same price I can import an uncut NTSC version so why would I bother with the UK one?

I havent seen it yet, and it doesnt look great, casting and plot-wise... but for 4 euros I'm giving it a shot. Maybe the extras are worth it. I used to be a big Superman fan back when Byrne was drawing and writing it.
