    Tempting. I dont have the patch yet so I'll have a look through the league and see what the budgets/squads are like.

    I'm quite liking the thought of starting a Championship game actually! Not much much success on this FM though. Every other i've taken League 2 or lower teams to the Championship whilst on this one the most i've done was a 3 season game with Newcastle where I finished top half and just missed out on Europe, then mid table twice in a row. Just can't get my tactics right!

    I'm bored of my NUFC save as I won the league (very lucky win though) I might start a Southampton save as they have a decent squad.

    Leicester do start with quite a lot of money, Smudger.

    Dont have the latest patch though, so picked Burnley in the end. Tried for loads of half decent coaches and players but they all reject me. Bastards.

    It's not that hard to get the patch?

    In case any of you were foolish enough not to buy the Humble Indie Bundle 3 yet, it now includes Humble Indie Bundle 2 if you pay more than the average (or have already purchased it).

    http://www.humblebundle.com/

    So if you pay more than the average ($5.12 atm) you get the following:

    Crayon Physics Deluxe
    Cogs
    VVVVVV
    Hammerfight (worth it for this alone)
    And Yet It Moves
    Steel Storm
    Braid
    Cortex Command
    Machinarium
    Osmos
    Revenge of the Titans
    Minecraft (access until 14/07/11)

    So that's 11 indie games (plus 10 days of Minecraft) for in exchange for a charity donation of at least ~£3.

    Annoyed!

    Finally got my own 360 back from Manc, and in the meantime I've been playing on my brothers 360 - I've started a career mode on that and got quite far into it - but now I wanna play THAT save but on MY 360, obviously. Have tried copying the saved game from his 360 onto a separate memory unit and then tried plugging it in and playing it on my 360 from the memory unit - but it says that I'm not allowed because it's off HIS gamer profile and I can only play it on that gamer profile. Which sucks. Is there no way I can do it without having to recover his gamer profile on my 360?

    I dunno what to do! Can't be bothered to start again like. Help?

    Even if you recovered his gamertag to your 360 you'd probably need his FIFA profile file too.

    I've also realised just how noisy my xbox is... It's literally screaming at me. I've only got an old one, whereas my brother's got one of the newer smaller flasher ones and it hardly makes a noise.

    I've practically done that for the past few weeks anyway.

    Might just get a new one anyway. How much are the Slim ones nowadays? 200?

    About £130 for a matte one with 4gb storage, £180ish for a shiny one with 250GB HDD. I'm also thinking about getting a new one soon, but I hate glossy finishes and the amount their dust magnetiness. Tempted by the new Gears 3 console though...

    Aye, matte things are better.. and it is cheaper... but the 250GB HDD on the shiny more expensive one sounds more tempting..

    Dammit, my old 360 just pales in comparison now :(
