You made good points. However, when any celebrity endorses a certain side they can often alienate others who don't think politically like them. I'm not saying celebrities can't have an opinion but I'm more for them encouraging others the value of voting, that every vote counts and for people themselves to way up the pros and cons of who to vote for themselves. What happens in the USA will often be copied elsewhere, so it's too late to put the celebrity genie back in it's bottle for politics because it's here to stay.

In reply to some of the above, should we really be persuaded/influenced by celebrity endorsements of political figures left or right. I find the whole thing a bit cringe. Lastly it was Eleanor Roosevelt who said - 'Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people'. Plenty of things to attack both Harris and Trump on with regards to 'policy' but to reduce it down to how someone laughs (Harris) or drinks water (Trump) is in poor taste.

What an alarming price! At that price it's just not for me, maybe a price drop or see it on e-bay at some point in the future. Still could see this selling well for Xmas. The real question is, can it play Doom?

Interesting time period since now it's the Japanese which have expansion plans and not the Mongols from the first game. It's a video game first but I would be interested to see how the 'Ainu' people are depicted in the game. If anyone is interested in this time period onwards (I realise this video is not for everyone) -

Personally, I think the whole thing will be closer but it's difficult in this media fuelled world, where we often end up in echo chambers, to say who will win yet.

It looks like Ubisoft Quebec did a bit more research into things and consulted with Ubisoft Japan and more historians than I had originally thought. That's good however there are still areas that need to be fixed before the game releases. Even if the game was pushed back to early 2025, it would be for the better personally.

Not overly impressed with things at the moment concerning the new government over a wide range of issues. I really feel that they need to read the room and repair public trust in them. The previous government messed things up for sure but they are not in charge now.

I don't have a TV license so won't be tuning in. I might watch a few clips via YouTube after the event or read the news about it online but that's it. Tokyo was such a muted affair that I lost a lot of interest in the whole thing, sorry.

I was working early this morning and managed to block all the news about the election until later on which is becoming harder in this digital age. I've lived through so many bread and circuses and changes of government that I've become cynical about this whole thing which I hate about myself. Didn't vote for this government but I wish them all the best especially since Reform will be a constant thorn in their side. The good thing about voting is that you have the chance to vote out a government that isn't working, shame I can't vote out some sections of the media. Never voted for them.

For my own sanity, I am glad that I don't have a TV anymore, so I don't get sucked into this mess too much. I will vote of course but who to? - the leader of the blue party (bank manager), the leader of the red party (buliding society manager), the leader of the yellow party (church warden) or the leader of the not purple (cyan) party (that bloke down the pub). Being apathetic isn't great but it would be nice for politicians to do their actual job and people might care a bit more.

In time anything is possible. Capcom is the issue here however; perfectly able to remake Resident Evil 2 only to drop the ball with the remake of Resident Evil 3. Not sure when we will get to see the remake of Resident Evil Survivor though. Lastly regarding the original Resident Evil game yes I am sure it can be remade again especially when you know that the original idea was to make it first person - What Resident Evil Could Have Been | Shacknews

So the link given is linked from dsogaming is to a reddit post (Daniel's post is behind Patreon that you have to join to unlock) which is then linked an 'X' post in Arabic, which via google translate becomes...."Another but uncertain piece of news is that Resident Evil 1 Remake will be released in 2026". Thanks for that I guess.

Saw the last episode which did feel like a mid season episode but it was fine enough although the first five minutes felt a bit out of place with the rest of the programme.

I watched it and while I should be happy that Russell T. Davis, David Tennant and Catherine Tate are back, the episode I watched felt average. As for the recent Children in Need mini episode, I thought this one was better for Comic Relief was better -
