    Same - or, I wouldn't say lucky, my PS4 is mostly financed by money left to me by a dead relative... ah well, I'm sure he wouldn't mind :D

    On the subject of single malt! I've got into the habit of putting a little water in my whiskey, and I think it does help to appreciate a little more flavour. Then again, I'm not the biggest fan of Laphroig and the other 'peaty ones'. This is probably why I have no hairs on my chest! I like the smoother ones such as Glenmorangie. At the moment I'm getting through a bottle of Glenfiddich, which is quite tasty. Not right now of course, bit early.

    Only played Resogun and Killzone so far. Thought Resogun was really good. Killzone is soooo pretty but I'm terrible at it :D

    Regarding the malts, I normally prefer the peaty ones. I sometimes like a tiny drop of water as it can make it more flavoursome, but not always - very much depends on the whisky. Certainly anything more than the tiniest drop ruins it for me.

    I am actually going to have to buy a new PS3 controller, my last surviving one has died. Anyone ever used those dodgy ones on Ebay that cost about £12 (they're not third party designs, but I'm guessing they're not official either. Knock-offs of the official controller).

    I always think 1 ice cube is watering it down enough. I tried a splash of water once, didn't like it.

    Yeh I never use much water, the danger being diluting too much and having to add more whiskey! I can happily drink without if it's a good drop.

    Is it significantly better than PS3?

    I was on 360 rather than PS3 but I imagine it still applies - might not say significantly, but definitely noticeably. Killzone is probably the best looking game I've played, and that's a launch game, so I'm super excited for games in the years to come.

    You are all heading in the wrong direction for your malts... head West. Bushmills is where it is at.

    Strangely, I prefer my 10year old Bushmills neat and my 16 year old with a dash of water.

    They are referring to Scotch Whisky [Probably not Mayukelele though]. Not Irish Whiskey, FLT. That's another subject. Have to say about Bushmills that although it tastes very fine, I've never been overly struck by it. I don't go seeking it out, like I might an Islay or Jura Malt. Horses for courses. There is no one best whisk[e]y, in my opinion, anyway.

    The like/dislike thing is gone, apparently that was what's causing all the database errors...
