    I'll give WWE credit for keeping Punk coming back pretty quiet.  But looking at his recent AEW run, he caused a lot of issues with talent there.  To the point he had to have a separate show created just for him and those willing to work with him on his last run.

    There are certainly talent and backstage personnel not happy to see Punk back on the roster, we know Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre are two such talents who have issues with CM Punk, and no doubt there's plenty of others.  Will be interesting to see how things pan out over the weeks and months.  Hopefully WWE can keep Punk under control, i'm guessing he's on a "one last chance" kind of deal.

    Superman 64.  I mean, i can't find a single thing that is good about this game.  Except one, which is the cartridge made a good stencil for something i was making at one point.

    Perfect Dark Zero.  Bought it pre-loved, still have yet to get off the 1st area/mission.  The original Perfect Dark took the GoldenEye formula and made it better, this felt like it was pulled through dog mess.

    Is there a good reason to get this if I already have the second one?

    Not really.  As Ashley mentioned, the 1st and 2nd games are very similar.  Just the music between both is different, so you may as well dig into the 2nd.

    They're getting penalised and their response is to give more responsibility to those causing the issue?! Originally I just thought the company were telling them to go fuck themselves and teaching them a lesson, but if they're losing money from it, that's suicide.

    I just don't understand their logic at times.

    I just chuckle when i see things coming out about issues i've raised, but they deny it's happening until it is too late.  It's quite funny seeing management running around in a frizz, when if they acted upon issues earlier it would have been much better.

    It's happened on a element of a project i do.  Two others have not been doing their parts (at all or correctly), so i raised my concerns about it and asked if their part of it could be transferred over to me.  Resulted in those who screw up their part getting the whole lot.
    Great.

    You know as they say, snitches get stitches.

    That's true.

    Most of the screw-ups are happening on cases worth half a million in revenue, which in turn is costing us through fines and penalties for not completing on-time.

    Oh my goodness, I'll be right on that. I love tetris at the best of times, but I MUST get this theme. 

    Out of curiosity, anyone who has purchased the 1-Player mode, can you use whatever themes you have collected playing 99 mode? If so I will purchase it at some point, as given Nintendo's track record I know this game won't stay online forever, which is a shame as it has so many great themes.

    You can, yes

    I'm in the boat of "Elon forgot to pay the bill"

    Was funny, i reached the tweet limit Saturday evening during the "Money in the Bank" Premium event.  Both amusing and frustrating at the same time.

    Got my usual reward for my hard work this past month.  Another security incident raised against me, one i can't appeal or do anything about as it's locked down.

    Cheers for that.  Nice to know I'm appreciated.

    Shame similar isn't done to my so called colleagues, who will literally act like petulant children when asked to do anything outside of "browse the internet"

    Yeah, that was a weak(ish) show.  Seeing how fluid Spider-Man 2's transitions from Spidy to Miles though, that was impressive.  Can see why Insomniac said it's only for PS5.

    Nice to see that Snake Eater remake is real, and a nice surprise to see a MGS Collection coming in Autumn.

    The Project Q device, yeah that's not for me.

    Nice cheeky tweet from Xbox there.

    Outside of that though, that was about it for what i was interested in games-wise.  Few games i'll be interested in seeing more of as time goes on, but the whole thing felt a little flat.  Fair enough, Sony have come out the PS5 gate strong in the 2 1/2 years or so it's been out, so expected some slowdown here.  Showcase felt more of a Indie+ showcase, which overall isn't a bad thing.

    If PlayStation offered a cloud-based service akin to Xbox (e.g. not needing the PS5 to play PS5 games) with this new Project Q device, i'd probably be more interested.  But as it is, it's not something i'm overly interested in.
