PMSL, I think it's cos us chap's have a more aggressive attitude when you slap a console on. Only when we've played it for 3 hours and pissed off you girlies do you come into form

Dave - Neil has shouted that plenty of times when i've walked across his view of the screen. Thats soooo much fun

Dan - believe me if you have seen Neil play then you really would know aggression!! I try to get out the room when he's on the comp!!
