Do you have any computer games in particular you like to play, or any games on your mobile you like to play?

I like "Snakes" on my mobile..... this involves a small snake going around the screen, picking up pieces of food. Randomly, dinners are thrown in, which you can get extra points for! As you keep going, the snake grows larger, making the game more & more difficult, because you have to anticipate which direction you should turn the snake in, which isn't easy! My highest score so far is 592, which I have yet to be able to beat!!

Strange that isn't it. Being unable to better your highest score.

Also Viv.... Snakes? Are you from the late 90s?

I love all the old-fashioned kinds of games, balls! Like space invaders. I'm going to play those at the weekend, I think.

At the moment, WoW, Guitar Hero and Bioshock. Getting a bit bored of the latter though.

On my phone I've got a game called "Sonic". It's about a wee blue hedgehog that has taken speed. As he runs around his maze, he has to defeat such obsticals as lava flows, crabs that shoot missles and an evil person who can fly in things (doctor someone, cant remember his name). It's all a bit mental.

Anyone heard of him?

Pacman is immense as well.

haven't heard of "Sonic", but it sounds great, foots. Pacman is genius.

I thought we established Viv was from the 80s? This would make Snake seem cutting edge to her.

Ha, I have Sonic 1 on my phone too.. but I never play it any more, as I have a Mega Drive to play it on now.

Well, you can, but it may seem a bit odd to others.

You could keep one in there with a small telly.

I may have a spare telly going and you can pick up a Mega Drive for next to nothing at a car boot.

I'm playing Final Fantasy X. Not getting very far at the moment as I'm having some quality grinding time. And playing a lot of Blitzball. Aurochs Rock!

There is no finer game ever, than Goldeneye on the N64.

We're having a goldeneye challenge night this weekend, 8 lads... lots of beer......four controllers..... and a spreadsheet to record the results and formulate a league table. Living the dream.

with me, Goldeneye was number one with Mario Kart 64 a very close second.

We used to have Goldeneye leagues at Uni. I was banned from playing as Oddjob, because it was harder to get a head shot...

I think Streets of Rage 2 has to be the best game.

No way, Mrs B's my taxi for the weekend.... I'll have to stay off the kebabs though. Last weekend, I went out and got home about 2 am.

I snuck around the house, got undressed without putting any lights on, had a silent shower and brushed my teeth before crawling into bed. Laid my head down on my pillow to let the room start spinning and fell asleep..... 2 minutes later I was awoken by Mrs B shouting "you f'ing stink of kebab, if you're going to stay in here then face the other way".

I'm with you on the first 2 there, don't play Bioshock though. I don't mind the occasional game of CSS, but haven't played much recently.
