  1. I do think it was a red card, but I don't think it was intentional, and I do think he was very unlucky.
  2. It wasn't a challenge, it was a clearance. I don't even think he knew the other guy was there. I think it's a really unlucky red card.
  3. But what if the final fighter is from a game that didn't even exist 3 years ago? I think that we should all get one final guess, and if we get it right, we get 30 points.
  4. I also sucked at the beginning (well, I still suck now), but the game slowly gets better and better. You'll be getting stronger and stronger without even realising it. Eventually you'll be crushing the first boss each time like a bug, and wondering how they ever even gave you trouble. You need to concentrate on dashing out of the way to begin with. Soon, dodging the various attacks will become second nature. I would say, just use the resources as you get them. As you get further into the game, you start getting so many of everything, that you don't need to worry about saving up. As LazyBoy said, make sure to upgrade the mirror with the purple drops - especially the death defiance one - that gives you extra lives. If you are still hating it, there is always God Mode, which you can switch on and it will reduce the damage you receive permanently, each time you die.
  5. I've been playing this off and on for a while. I've beaten the final boss 5 times now, each with a different weapon. The bow was the hardest one so far; dealing damage was fine, but I just couldn't seem to defend myself while using it. Anyway, I eventually managed to get some good boons together and managed to smack the last boss into next week. I keep reaching points where I think i'm going to give up and play something else, but i just keep going for one more attempt! I've only got the machine gun left to beat the game with, and then i'll have done it with every weapon. Maybe that's when i'll call it a day?
  6. It seems weird that we're being judged on predictions made more than 3 years ago. I feel like the gaming landscape has changed somewhat since then, and this affects who the final fighter will be. Should we all be allowed to make one final prediction for the final fighter?
  7. I went through the whole game without using any weapons (other than scenery during a fight). Only found out how about 2 chapters from the end.
  8. That looks great!
  9. Length? Leeeeeeeeength?!
  10. Kim Swift and Jeff Grubb sound like fake names. Are we sure they're real people?
  11. Been watching a few films while I sterilise bottles in the evening. Each one as the director intended - in 20 minute chunks on a phone screen balanced above the kitchen sink. The Meg This was surprisingly good. I thought it was going to be absolute trash, similar to Sharknado, but actually it turned out to a pretty good 'giant animal movie'. Obviously it's no Jaws, but it pushes all the right buttons most of the time. Oceans 8 I knew this had pretty bad reviews, but I wondered how bad could it be. I enjoyed the other 3 Oceans films, even if they had been getting steadily worse. This one, was just dull. Really boring. The main issue is that the heist goes off without any problems whatsoever. There are no roadbumps to it at all. Woman gets out of prison. Woman decides to steal necklace. Woman gathers a team. Team steals necklace. The end. 1917 This film was excellent. The whole gimmick (and it is a bit gimmicky) of appearing to be filmed in one camera shot was fantastic, and i think it really added to the feeling of tension throughout the whole film. It's really weird in that when watching it, there are a few moments when you keep expecting a cut to arrive, and then it just doesn't. For example there's one point where a character is dragging a dead body, and your brain goes 'oh, there'll be a cut' and he'll be just finishing off burying the body, and then off they'll go, because it's such a common trope for films where they obviously don't want to show someone digging a grave for an hour. But here, that thought popped into my head, and then I realised that no, that probably won't happen. It can't happen. So what are they going to do? It's bizarre how our brains are so used to edits and cuts in films that we come to expect them, even though in real life, obviously they don't exist.
  12. Accidentally sucked my earphones up the vacuum cleaner...
  13. It's only great because sometimes pasted the banjo kazooie logo next to it. If that was just a controller sat in your living room, it would look hideous. Like a fisher price toy.
  14. Looks like some sort of Pokémon Quidditch Battle Arena. Weird.
  15. Repeated post, whoops.
  16. Hope it's not Breath of the Wind, because then the acronyms get confusing.
  17. Does it have folders?
  18. Disappointed it's in 2D. Liked the look of it from the cutscenes, but I suppose I'll have to wait for Metroid 4 to play like that.
  19. I remember the platinum is a massive grind, but i'm genuinely surprised that you haven't got it before now - seems like it would be right up your street!
  20. Is that really true? I think the Labour party are a bit of a mess right now, but do we really think they'd do worse that this complete, corrupt shitshow? A party made up of barely sentient algae would do better than the PR-driven bilge we have at the moment. I can't think of a single thing that the Tories have done that suggests they are in any way more competent that any of the other parties (other than manage to convince 45% of the public that they are). I really hate this mentality that 'oh, Labour are unelectable right now, so we have to vote for the Tories'. It's bullshit. What could Labour do that is possibly worse that crashing the country out of Europe, and then allowing a pandemic to kill off 130k people. I wish that it wasn't just a choice between options, but since that's our political system, let the other group in for a while, and see if they do any better. I genuinely don't think they could do any worse.
  21. It seems like they ought to kill that guy at the end.
  22. Not sure if this has been posted yet, bit here is a good site which keeps track of everything that has been announced, with filters for platform etc https://2021.e3recap.com/
  23. No it isn't.
  24. Why? They have cities in Mexico don't they?
