  1. Has anybody else been keeping up with this? Could it be DiCaprio's year, at last? I guess a lot of the focus seems to be on the lack of nominations for black actors and actresses in the big categories. What's everyone else's view on this?
  2. Dropzone was pretty fun last night, @Eenuh and @Cookyman. We hardly dropped any points/pods in those games at all. Although I didn't get many kills, I felt that I got quite a few crucial ones which led us to victory. We obliterated the enemy in Supremacy, finished some of the games within minutes. I'm loving the variation in modes in this game. Looking at it after plunging a decent amount of time into it (40+...@Eenuh has over 60+), the only thing I think it's lacking is maps. Maybe a few more weapons, too. Aside from that, I'd consider it money well spent.
  3. I've changed my emphasis slightly and have moved towards 8-reps per set but with lighter/more moderate weight. I felt it was time for a change and it does take a looooot out of you having to go heavy all the time. We'll see how I go with this before I decide to switch it back over. In general, I feel like there's quite a bit of zip about me these days. I'm noticing in work that I'm moving around quite quickly, getting more things done these days whilst others are flagging or lagging behind.
  4. I feel the same way. Although, tbh, there was a lot that I did enjoy about the game. I did enjoy the characters and the humour. The puzzle-solving is what lets it down, imo. I'd definitely be up for another game with the same characters, similar humour and storylines but with a more modern take on puzzles and a bit more sign-posting going on.
  5. Oh my god, that looks fantastic. Can't fucking wait!
  6. It is time... I've put the disc into the console. It's time to play Hearts of Stone. My body is ready.
  7. Add me to the never played Okami crew. I think we even have the game. Just never got around to it. Looks lovely, though.
  8. We were much better in the second half. I quite enjoyed some of it, although I struggled to stay awake during the game as I'd been playing football after work. Was very tired. However, the match does highlight one thing: we're fucked without Martial. He's one of the only players we have that wants to run past players and take them on.
  9. I've been busy lately looking back at my current PS4 collection and working my way through some of the smaller games that I've been neglecting. First up...Grim Fandango Remastered. The style, humour, presentation and story of this game are fantastic. That's essentially what got me hooked and what carried me through to the end. However, I have to say that I didn't enjoy the puzzle-solving mechanic an awful lot. Some of the sign-posting in this game isn't great and a lot of the solutions for the puzzles are a bit obscure. I would say that I enjoyed it and I'm glad that I played it. But, it definitely tells you how far videogames have come. Some would say that there's a bit too much hand-holding these days, but I'd argue that some of the design has improved tremendously. So, not so much games being easier now, but rather that the combination of visuals making it clear what's taking place and having mechanics that tend to fit in a bit more with their surroundings...makes a huge difference. An interesting argument for another time, maybe. Race The Sun This was another PS+ game, although this is from quite a while back. I played a bit of it then, then put it aside in favour of something else. It's a pretty great game. Simple, yet fucking hard. I love the sense of speed in this, the minimalistic visuals and the mechanics. I'm a big fan of this. Moar please.

  10. I didn't necessarily mean just here. In general, it doesn't seem to be talked about that much. Maybe I've just not noticed it. Can't wait for it though, think it'll be great. In the mood for another fighter.
  11. We tried Raider Camp yesterday and quite enjoyed it. We did a few games of Dropzone until it came up and thought it was a pretty good map for that type of mode. Can't wait to play on more maps. Looking forward to seeing some more content for this game, although I do think that there are a great range of modes. Walker Assault has become a bit of a favourite of ours now.
  12. @Retro_Link, I actually made a thread about this before and you even thanked the first post! Linky I'm still excited for it. Think it'll be a great game.
  13. I'm really surprised that there seems to be no hype around this. Is the interest in this series on the decline? What's the issue?
  14. I bet Vardy does play, but it'll be out on the wing or something. Rooney will get chosen because he's an "experienced player" despite being in really poor form. Nah, it's Leicester or nothing for me. Can't see Spurs winning it. It'll be between Leicester, Arsenal and City. City have what it takes to get over the line, so I'd still be tempted to go with them. But, Arsenal are playing great football and Leicester are playing out of their skin. I'd love it if Leicester won it...although my brain says that they'll slip away at some point and leave Arsenal and City to slug it out. The next three games will tell us how serious Leicester's chances are. 4+ points from that and...who knows.
  15. I'm not sure if I'll go back into it, at least not straight away. I've started Grim Fandango and so will probably persevere with that now. I remember you talking about Brothers. I'll look into it. I wonder if you'd like Hohokum. I love it. Thought it was extremely quirky.
  16. I'm really, reeeeeally fucking confused by all this. So, this has gone from being a small PSN game to a huge release and one that is scoring extremely highly in reviews? What the fuck? Now I don't know what to do. Really tempted to get this, but don't know if it's worth waiting. Feels a bit lame waiting for it to drop in price when it seems like the people behind it have put tons of effort into this.
  17. Sorry for your loss, @martinist.
  18. Yeah, that's pretty awful. Shouldn't be looking at the linesman in a situation like that. A pretty amateurish thing to do for a player with his experience. Rooney isn't good enough to get into the team, but wishing him to break his metatarsal is a bit lame.
  19. Just finished The Unfinished Swan. Woooow! What a lovely little game. Can't believe I hadn't played it til now.
  20. Another game finished! I was going play Grim Fandango Remastered but realised that I hadn't downloaded it to my console yet. I thought I'd play a little something in between whilst that was downloading, so I had a browse before deciding on playing...The Unfinished Swan. I know nothing about this game. @Eenuh has played this, but I hadn't got around to it yet. I think @Retro_Link was telling us to play it as he's a fan? Anyway, what can I say? The game is absolutely wonderful. Beautiful music. Gorgeous, yet minimalistic visuals and a pretty good story behind it, too. A perfect Sunday afternoon game, to be honest. Highly recommended. Although, I imagine the majority of people have played this by now. Definitely enjoyed my time with this game. It's been a pretty cool start to 2016!

  21. Leicester have got Liverpool at home, then both Man City and Arsenal away. If they can survive those games and still remain at the top of the league...then I really think that they could do it. I can't honestly look at those games and say that they're certain to lose them. I could see them winning at least one of those, maybe drawing the other two. Fuck it. I'm all in. If United can't do it, then I'd love Leicester to do it. 15 games remaining...
  22. I'm not 100% sure that there was contact. Taking off Giroud is a big move, too. I know somebody has to go off, but that's a big call.
  23. I can now declare Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception as my second finished game of 2016. Wooooo. Here's what I said in the Uncharted thread: Finished the game yesterday! Blitzed through to the end. I'm definitely thinking that this is my favourite Uncharted game and one of my favourites ever.
