Radio Luxembourg

The disambig page Radio Luxembourg suggests that there are/were several stations by this name tarnsmitting in different languages. Surely they are all one "station" - especially since they share wavelengths - with several different language "services". Is my understanding right and does the page need a resultant tidying up? -- SGBailey 07:55, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Looks fine to me. The editors of that and related articles seem to have gone to considerable trouble to distinguish the different language broadcasts, so the best place to discuss this would be at Talk:Radio Luxembourg.--Shantavira|^{feed me} 15:41, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

TV ratings

Hi. I have two questions on the same subject: The first one I have is What is the name of the company (and the website) who keep track of TV ratings in Canada, like Nielsen Ratings do for America, and BARB in the UK.

Second, I've been looking at the Nielson website for the ratings of specific TV episodes from a year ago, they don't seem to have it. Is there anywhere on the internet who archives this information, and for Canadian shows, too? Thanks -- Matthew Edwards 21:17, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

It is possible that the Nielsen Ratings are used in Canada, as well. Neilsen is used in over 40 countries, says the article. --Mdwyer 00:40, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

We use Nielsen for American shows, but I think something else keeps track of Canadian productions; now of course I can't think of what it's called... Adam Bishop 15:08, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

Beach Life (Spring Break) solution

Because the googling was fruitless, I'm curious whether someone completed the 6th level of that game. Particularly I'm about to make 50 love pairs in 8 days. I follow the advices by building the venues more attractive to girls, but the love pairs number doesn't increase (my top number is 4 so far). Thanks, guys --Brand спойт 21:21, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Have you looked at this? -- kainaw™ 02:48, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

can xbox 360 owners and pc owners play the same online game?

Hi. I have a PC, my friend has an xbox 360. If we had the same game - Bioshock for example - could we play online against each other? ie I set up my pc as a server and he joins it?

I believe you have to sign up for Xbox Live Gold, if I'm not mistaken, but I think that only pertains to Halo 2. bibliomaniac15 Tea anyone? 23:21, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Shadowrun (2007 video game) I believe was the first game to do this it "is the first game to utilize Games for Windows - LIVE that allows for Vista users to play with Xbox 360 users."

As far as I know otherwise you would be separated xbox/pc

Therefor a PC owner needs Games for Windows - Live probably vista, a xbox live gold account, and of course a game that supports it.

See Games for Windows - Live for more info -specifically what games work etc...87.102.5.137 11:44, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
