  1. General Movie Thread

    Yeah if it does come out over here as well id be tempted to go see it again.
  2. Persona 3 Reload (2nd February 2024)

    I've got my preorder in on the PSN. Been quite a few years since I played 3 and even that was only the Portable version which was missing a lot so I'm looking forward to playing a more complete version.
  3. General Retro Discussion

    I haven't bought a used game in years as for most of my gaming I am digital only now but I do have fond memories of rifling through the used games at shops like Game, Electronics Boutique before it and Gamestation looking for deals.
  4. General Retro Discussion

    I've been to the Birmingham one from them, they're pretty good. Can get a bit cramped depending on the venue but the sellers always seem nice and chatty.
  5. Comic Book Discussion Issue #2

    After watching a review of the Thor omnibus and realising that its possible to get an unbroken run of Thor from the 90s to present day I may have gone and bought the others I needed that are still in print. Just one left from the 90s that will hopefully get reprinted one day and I'm sorted.
  6. Comic Book Discussion Issue #2

    Latest Omniboo purchases. Probably just one more later this month when Spider-Man Clone Saga vol.1 is released. I wasn't originally gonna get Thor by JMS & Gillen but Marvel snuck the Siege event into it so I felt like I should.
  7. General TV Thread

    Not ours yet other than Prodigy but the US version lost all the movies at the start of this year.
  8. General TV Thread

    At the moment I have: Amazon Prime - Pretty much just for deliveries Netflix - Resub and cancel depending on whats new. Not worth it to stay subscribed all the time. Disney Plus - Got it through my phone contract, good for Marvel and Star Wars but even I'll admit I'm getting a bit bored with some of those. Some good shows I like to rewatch though (Currently watching Castle through again) Paramount Plus - We get it free with Sky so no extra cost there. Mostly wanted it for Star Trek as it seemed like a safe place to always access that but even with them owning the IP its been getting removed.
  9. General TV Thread

    Its a big reason why i've started buying movies and TV shows digitally again now. I'd rather know I can access them in just the one place.
  10. General Switch Discussion

    I'll just stick this here as I can't really think where else to put it. If anyone is interested and reads Kindle books, Reggie's one is currently on sale for 99p on Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0982YG2V2?smid=A1G3UP32AZJ14F&tag=pepperugc03-21&ascsubtag=2635369133
  11. I'd been planning on downloading all the Giant Bombcast episodes for a while now since their most recent buyout and lack of trust of the new owners. Looks like someone uploaded them all as a torrent recently so that's going to make my life so much easier.
  12. General TV Thread

    If anyone is interested Apple currently has the complete series of Game of Thrones on sale for £12.99. I don't even watch the show and even I had to snap it up.
  13. N-E Book Club (or just a chat about books)

    I'm going to try and read more next year. I think this year was much more of a comic year for me.
  14. N-E Book Club (or just a chat about books)

    Thought I might branch out from my usual sci-fi genre and try Richard Osman's first book, The Thursday Murder Club. Going for this as a proper physical book as well instead of just kindle. I doubt I'll move away from mostly kindle books because it makes life so much easier but it is nice to just sit with a real book from time to time.
  15. General Movie Thread

    Just finished watching it. Really enjoyed it as well. Absolutely gorgeous animation and a fun story. My only complaints would be that I would have preferred the Turtles to be a bit more competent and I thought some of the voices for the Turtles themselves were a bit weak. At times they didn't seem distinctive enough and others I thought actually swapping the voice actors around a bit would have worked better. Michelangelo especially never sounded like himself to me. Great movie though. I'd probably still rank the original 90s movie higher but only because of those reasons I mentioned.
  16. PC Gaming Discussion

    I might take a look
  17. General Switch Discussion

    Thanks. The introduction of a junk items section in inventories was a god send for games like these. Guess I've just been spoiled.
  18. General Switch Discussion

    In all seriousness though I've got a question for you guys. What should I be keeping and what should I be selling? Never a fan of games that don't make it clear!
  19. General Switch Discussion

    Xenoblade Chronicles 1 just arrived so I've started it. Sad to say I hate it already. I swear this was supposed to be a farming simulator but all I've seen so far is fighting!
  20. PC Gaming Discussion

    Spent ages downloading the 100 gigs for Mass Effect only for the latest bios update for my Ally to fuck the controls for the system. Touch screen worked thankfully but nothing else so after trying every solution I could find, including rolling back the bios I had to do a full cloud recovery. Fixed the issue but I'm now waiting for Mass Effect to redownload again
  21. General Movie Thread

    I haven't yet but plan to in the next few days. Watched Mario which I thought was good but not great. Fun enough, especially for fans who noticed all the easter eggs they peppered in but I thought it could have used a bit more of a story. Also thought that Chris Pratt was the weakest part.
  22. Playstation 5 Console Discussion

    I liked them as well but I just feel like they should have moved on since then. It still feels like those early games.
  23. Playstation 5 Console Discussion

    Got Star Trek Resurgence for Christmas so started that earlier now my niece and nephew have left. I've got a feeling I'm going to love it because it's Star Trek but if it was based on any other series I would be disappointed. Feels very stilted in it's movement and animations, at least a generation or two old. Bit glitchy already as well.
  24. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (29th July 2022)

    Just watch me immediately hate the first game and refuse to touch any of the others
  25. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 (29th July 2022)

    I was planning on starting with 3 like you guys suggested but then thought that the series is so well regarded if I start with 3 and really enjoy it I'd probably struggle going backwards. Figured I would just take the risk that I'll like it and go from the beginning.
