Bumpety Bump So, the US GP just happened.

I quite like the jump between Jacob and Evie, both characters have their own traits. Evie is more like Ezio and Jacob more like Edward Kenway. So far, i'm quite impressed. It's like so far Ubisoft have learned from Unity and the botch up that was. Edit: Expect a decent length game-install, first mission or two then it's playing the waiting game.

My copy arrived earlier, will have most of the evening on it. I have heard that none of the stuff that was in Unity made it over. So none of that log into x website or app to unlock a chest shit, which i hated. No co-op or random missions needing a 2nd player or anything, which sounds promising indeed.

It's basically YouTube doing a Netflix and creating their own "shows" that will be pay to watch (and watch offline, in background and watch videos/clips ad-free*). Clips, vloggers etc. Them types of videos won't go behind a paywall. *This part would bother some content creators, they rely on ads as much as YouTube do.

In the news, it would seem Youtube are launching a "Paid Subscription" service known as YouTube Red. Will feature exclusive content made by popular creators and have original content. Myself, i reckon this will begin (or continue) the demise of YouTube as we know it. Thoughts Edit: Having read further into it, the current model of YouTube remains as it is for free (all creators whom make videos we like). It's just that those paying for Red get the same service of videos, just ad-free and now have access to new YouTube-only "original" content. And those paying for Google music/YouTube music get Red thrown in for no additional cost. So yeah, YouTube remains the same. Just adding an ad-free version with original content.

I got an email (from Royal Mail) and a text (from my mate whom works at Royal Mail) saying my package from Nintendo will be delivered today.

Count me in (unless i get held up on my way home)

I ordered my set of cards from that offer they had, should be here end of the month (hopefully) Edit: Weird bug, visited a whore house in Novagrad and, well this happened. Seems you lose a lot more than money in these places

Also adding to my list of games completed. 3D Streets of Rage 1 and 2. Played the 1st in co-op mode, got to the final boss then we got shipped back to the 6th stage. But managed to do it solo later over the weekend. 2nd was done in solo, always loved that game.

In prep for Extra Life

Also finished 3D Sonic the Hedgehog. Love the improvements they've made, enjoy the addition of the spin attack.

Update on the games front Non-console game Gwent Donate to play games Toilet Tycoon Octodad: Dadliest Catch Turtle Tale Kick Beats If you want to see me play either of these games, leave a message with your donation (maximum time request, 1 hour per donation) Also, i've set-up a Just Giving page for a UK-based Childrens Charity instead. Link is here I'll get some more games down over the next month

I'm already down for raiding with some work mates on the weekend, thanks for the offer though.

Was a good night indeed, nice racing.

Adding 3D Sonic the Hedgehog 2 to my list of games completed. Great game, bought back some memories. Did it in one sitting on my commute to work (kind of helped with a delayed train).

I hope i'm wrong as well, stranger things have happened.

I just have this feeling that Zelda U will be NX bound with no release on WiiU, i know Ninty said it's coming to WiiU. But we know they can change their minds.

It seemingly shows that Nintendo may not have a new Zelda game out for WiiU at all, so need to fill the void with HD remakes.

B/W (and B2/W2) are already done, both were great games. Playing White, it was recommended by @Serebii of all people as a game to get back into Pokemon with.

Finished the main and the Delta stories to Pokemon: Omega Ruby earlier. As a first time playing this game (have not played Ruby or Sapphire before), i thought the story was pretty good. I made sure to transfer 1 Pokemon from X over in the form of Riolu, but other than that, i used the in-game Pokemon. Wasn't too shabby, but it has encouraged me to finish off Soul Silver (which has been sitting in the box for some time now)

Can't do Wednesday (i'm assuming Wednesday as per the post) sorry, working lates. I can do Thursday from 9pm and Friday from 8pm if that's any good?. I can possibly do Sunday as well, will keep things informed if i can.

I was considering before that huge price on the season pass, now i won't bother.

EA have announced a £40 Season Pass. Yeah, thanks EA.
