  1. So, who's up for the Nightfall?. I'm free from 8pm this evening
  2. Original post edited, with the additional "warm, fuzzy feeling". To me, it doesn't sound too much at all for the price being offered. As Daft said, them extra classes could come out for those whom have not got the DLC pack as a "freebie". Which would make the pack lesser value for money. @DriftKaiser, aww shucks. I'm up for the Nightfall and/or Raiding afterwards this evening.
  3. So, apparantly the next big DLC has been leaked
  4. Ola... So, ummm yes. Should be interesting. For now, Vote: No Lynch.
  5. I'm in this week.
  6. Played and finished the first 3 episodes of Game of Thrones by Telltale Games over the weekend, overall very impressed. Think of it as a "create your own Game of Thrones" episode, because that's basically what it is with a lot of control. Can't really say too much, but what i've done is in the thread. Doing episode 4 tonight, then waiting for the last 2 to arrive.
  7. I'm up for something on Tuesday evening if anyone else is.
  8. Didn't quite understand all them blue flags on unlapped cars, i mean what were they thinking.
  9. So, the Canadian Gp
  10. Season pass is on sale, covers all the games in the series. Picked it up myself, playing the 1st episode now. It's very immersive indeed.
  11. So sorry to hear this @Animal. Your boss however, sounds like a total douche and needs a lesson in management. Get out of there as soon as possible.
  12. Before i put in my 30 day notice (my contract ended on the 30th May anyway), they did offer me my same contract for £5 more a month. I was paying £35 a month, so i wasn't going for that. Even said to them why should i pay more for something i currently have, why can't you renew at the current price?. They couldn't give me an answer, so i left. Ditto, moved to o2. They've got good coverage, and i get auto-connected to their Wifi. Got my old EE deal on the o2 contract, which is good.
  13. There's a sale on the PS Store for the season pass which covers all 6 games, £11.99. It will be there until the 17th June (or there abouts)
  14. Yeah, i did that. Went from the Acadamy to the Archive, luckly had a few level 32 enemies in the Archive but they were a limited run with quite a few other players hanging around. When the enemies left, they were replaced by level 11's. Left the Acadamy and went right back to the area near the beginning, then went back into the Acadamy but no enemies were there. I think it took about 15 minutes to respawn, but they didn't respawn a 3rd time. So i went into the Nightfall section and got annilated.
  15. I think Bungie may have nixed the respawning in Nightfall, tried the cheeky trick but the enemies hardly respawn, if at all. Anyone wish to give me a hand getting the 200 kills on Nightfall?
  16. Sorry to be the bearer of news, but i'm out. Got caught in a meeting and won't be home until it's over. Sorry guys (it's been like the hokey-pokey, in-out,in-out all day for me)
  17. I thought Golden Abyss was decent enough for me to venture into the rest of the series.
  18. This would be something i'd be interested in getting, again missed out on the Uncharted series up until recently with Golden Abyss on the Vita.
  19. Yep, i'm in this week. Sorry for the delay.
  20. I'd pick up the collection, only played Golden Abyss on the Vita and thought it was decent enough.
  21. I'm happy to join in @lostmario
  22. Now we know why they are hosting their own E3 press conference.
  23. Iron Banner is nuts, especially when you've got a team that won't work as a team thus eventually leading to a loss.
  24. I was exclusively Nintendo right through until the Gamecube era (ok, i got a Mega Drive over a SNES and have no regrets to that). But since then, Nintendo have really fallen through in terms of what they offer gaming-wise. They are relying too much on Mario, which has made that franchise quite stale. Super Mario 3D World was good, but felt it lacked the magic that Nintendo are known for. Look at Super Mario 64, Sunshine and the Galaxy games to see what i mean. Even Zelda is starting to feel stale, i couldn't even finish Skyward Sword because of a few factors (controls were one). Now that's never happened before, and i hope with the new Zelda it doesn't happen again. Twilight Princess was the realistic Zelda people wanted, but the whole of Hyrule (including the towns) felt barren. Yes, there were people about but they felt lifeless. They have a wide range of franchises to use, but won't develop them. Ok, they are probably making a new Starfox. But no Metroid or F-Zero. Nintendo started to go wrong (for me) with the Wii, they chose to distance themselves from the 2 other major competitors and go in there own direction. A bold move, which did ultimately pay off financially with the Wii, but is showing major signs of failure with the WiiU. The main issue is, that they are not advertising it. They are choosing not to advertise their own products, which to me is a bold but dumb move. Advertise it, show what the system can do. People were thinking when the tablet was revealed that it was an add-on for the Wii. Gaming-wise, Nintendo are still best with their older games. Playing Super Mario World, Ocarina of Time and Super Metroid you can feel the magic. Playing 3D World, Mario Kart, Smash Brothers you can feel the magic is there, but not as great as it once was. I've not got Splatoon yet, and probably won't for some time. Plus there are severe droughts on the WiiU, the last game i got for it was Captain Toad in December, the next is Wooly World in June. That's 6 months without a game that interests me, not good enough. It doesn't help that developers are shunning the console due to poor sales, and i don't really blame them for part. But i do blame them for the part as well, lack of games means lack of sales. I did ultimately move into duel console gaming (having a Nintendo handheld didn't really count) around 2006 and got an Xbox 360, and in 2013 a PS4. I did get a Wii about a year after the 360, and a WiiU a year before the PS4. No regrets getting either, in fact the PS4 has re-invigorated my love of gaming which i thought was ultimately dying towards the end of the 360. Witcher 3 is one of them wow games, that if i only had Nintendo i would have missed out on. Same for the likes of Destiny, Driveclub and inFamous. All are cracking games, and something i would have missed out on. The only area (i believe) Nintendo are doing right, is the 3DS. But that's showing signs of fatigue as well these days. Don't get me wrong, there will always be a place for Nintendo in my gaming life. But in this modern age of gaming (and in my opinion), you simply cannot be Nintendo exclusive these days.
  25. Going to put myself down as tentative for now, will most likely be a last minute addition. Shall update once i know for certain if i'm in or not.
