    Is Wikipedia Ever Wrong?

    I guess with Wikipedia being a community-edited resource, there is going to be some factually incorrect information on there. I've yet to find any, however.

    Poll: Mirror's Edge: Is it worth buying for $10 dollars?

    Definitely worth $10. It's a solid title that I really enjoyed (the free running mechanics are great, even if they are hindered at times by a combat system that feels like something of an afterthought) - you can't go wrong at that price.

    I'm expecting (and hoping for) an English victory - we're one of the world's highest ranked international sides, and to lose to a country where football is not the primary sport would be a real killer. However, although we did have a very good qualifying campaign, I felt the team wasn't quite...
