Still the only character I like on the show so I would also watch that.
-
Yeah I'm going for the S as well. Did you manage to get it from one of Gearbest's EU or UK warehouses or are you having to get it from their Chinese ones?
-
I'm getting ready to buy one myself. Probably getting it at the start of Feb. Is that the CR10 or CR10S?

What song(s) are you really into at the moment?!
Happenstance replied to Aneres11's topic in General Chit Chat
Fell into a bit of a J-Rock hole in Youtube the other night and ended up ordering a couple of albums. Listening to this song in particular from Band-Maid a lot. -
Nice to see a nod to Enterprise in this returning episode of Discovery.

This is from a foreign site and isnt being reported anywhere else but people think that they broke embargo by accident as we know there was a Vive announcement coming. Its also been run through Google Translate so thats why it may not read quite right. HTC Announces Vive Pro and Vive Wireless Adapters After the announcement at the weekend follows now as expected the official press release: HTC announces its new headset Vive Pro , which wants to shine with a higher resolution and integrated loudspeakers. There is also a new Vive wireless adapter . Vive Pro: Update 1.5 with 3K and speakers Those looking for a completely new model may be disappointed - but the Vive Pro offers a welcome update - the original HTC Vive remains in the program. The Vive Pro has two OLED displays with a common resolution of 2880 x 1600 pixels, which makes it similar to the Vive Focus from the same company. Overall, the new headset has thus increased by 78 percent resolution and should achieve a much sharper and clearer presentation. For comparison: The "normal" HTC Vive offers 2160 x 1200 pixels. A welcome innovation is the integration of speakers, which should increase the comfort significantly. Owners of the old model had to resort to the Deluxe Audio Strap , which should be superfluous in the Vive Pro now. HTC intends to provide information on the availability and price of the new VR headset later. In addition, the manufacturer announces the Vive Wireless Adapter for the HTC Vive and HTC Vive Pro , with which you can connect the headset without a cable to the PC. The adapter uses Intel's WiGig technology, unlike TPCast , but you have to be patient for a while. Only in the third quarter of 2018 should the adapter come on the market. Open and exciting the price remains: Although TPCast for the first HTC Vive available, but for around 350 € anything but a bargain. Whether the Vive Wireless Adapter can position itself here as a price-breaker remains to be seen. Whether TPCast with the HTC Vive Pro without (too) large latency problems or even works remains to be seen.

I didn't know they had made AOT films. Are they any good? I watched them last night with @Goafer. From what I’ve read they’re thought of as pretty terrible but I thought they were ok as long as you kind of just let them be their own thing instead of comparing too much with the series.

Few more purchases. You may notice a theme.

I’ve heard a lot of positive things about the new Jumanji. Mostly that it’s just a fun movie that you can sit back and enjoy.
-
It really is ridiculous money. I think something needs to be done about it.

All valid questions

Of course, he’s Brian!

I can’t believe Holgate didn’t get a straight red for pushing Firmino into the crowd just now. Not even a yellow!

It will calm down a bit once you start progressing through the chapters.

I was one of the ones who didnt mind 3's ending too much as it was but the additions they made along with the Leviathan dlc did help.
-
Had an urge to try and watch all the old Godzilla movies but they are proving quite hard to get over here so far so I figured I could at least buy the latest one while I work on getting the others.

You disgust me @Hero-of-Time

Just wanted to post this image from Defenders #7. It’s some of my favourite art in years.

Feels like it snuck up on me but Awesome Games Done Quick starts next Sunday. Here's the schedule: https://gamesdonequick.com/schedule Some new games on there that I'm looking forward to seeing run for the first time. Finishing with Breath of the Wild this year.

Just completed Uncharted Lost Legacy so I'm revising my top 10 a bit. 1. Yakuza 0 - I've always been a fan of the Yakuza games but haven't managed to play them all, Zero however just seemed to click in all the right places. The 80s setting is really well realised with a lot of nice little touches to make it feel like Japan back then. The characters are brilliant, the fighting mechanics have upped their game and the story is just so well written with lots of twists and turns. I cant wait for Yakuza 6 next year. 2. Destiny 2 - Originally the first Destiny didnt really do it for me but I came back a few expansions later and thought they nailed it. Destiny 2 managed to do that right out of the gate. Much better story and the loot grind was a lot easier. 3. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - I got all caught up watching Giant Bomb's quest for a chicken dinner this year and eventually got a group of friends together to play this ourselves. Its such a tense game, right from the beginning parachuting out of the plane and spinning the camera around to see who is coming down with you to the end where you are stuck in this tiny circle praying you see the other guy before he sees you. Even though it got its full release about a week ago, it still has issues but they just never seemed to detract from the game. 4. Super Mario Odyssey - 3D Mario games have never been my thing. I was always a 2D Mario guy and before this I had never actually completed one. Odyssey though was a lot of fun with some great level design, mechanics and music. 5. Injustice 2 - A sequel to one of my favourite fighting games. The MK fighting engine still holds up well but the story mode is where this game shines for me. 6. Uncharted: Lost Legacy - Uncharted can be a bit hit and miss for me. I thought I was done with the series after the shit show that was 3. 4 was very good but I felt I was done with it. Lost Legacy managed to pull me back in by switching up the characters and getting a bit more personal with returning Chloe and Nadine. Plus, god damn those facial animations are just unmatched! Oh and before I forget, that has to be one of the most satisfying final boss fights in gaming history for me. 7. Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - This series is very similar to 3D Mario games for me. Never actually beaten one until now. Its probably quite low on my list compared to a lot of people's on this forum but certain mechanics like the breaking weapons/rain and the story/barren feeling world held it back to the point where I was starting to rush by the end to try and get to Ganon. Don't get me wrong though, I enjoyed a lot of my time with it and as a lot of people have said, the mechanics in the world were great. 8. Sonic Mania - I'm a big Sonic fan. My nostalgia for 2 may be rose tinted at this point but I struggle to let go of it. With Sonic Mania though, Sega (or more accurately Christian Whitehead) managed to create a game which kept all that nostalgia intact and possibly even surpassed it in some places. 9. Yakuza Kiwami - I had only watched the recap movie of the first Yakuza game as I started originally with 3 so it was nice to hear that a remake of 1 was coming. Kiwami uses the same engine as Zero and while the game and story may not hit the same highs, its still very fun. 10. Tekken 7 - I loved Tekken 1-3 but then just fell off from the series for years. While I wasnt a fan of the story mode in this one, the fighting mechanics still worked really well. I ended up deciding to take Persona 5 off of my list as while I do like what I've played, I'm only 2 dungeons in so I dont think thats far enough to judge it enough for a GOTY list.

I really need to get back to playing it. So many games at the moment though!

I’ve owned both the Vive and PSVR and while PSVR is lower resolution, I didn’t find it noticeably bad in comparison to the Vive.

I grew very tired of Family Guy and American Dad after a while but have really enjoyed The Orville. MacFarlane’s love for Star Trek shines through. I enjoy Discovery as a sci-fi show but not necessarily a Star Trek one. Orville seems to fill that void.

Thank god you posted this. I bet it would have been missed otherwise
