Good luck, MadDog!

Goddamit, wish I spoke French/could speak and understand it well. The wait for this has been torture. Pure torture. Season 1 was excellent and I'll probably rewatch it all before Season 2 starts. Soon.

I'm in a similar boat, but this was expected and I knew this would happen because of work. I think I'm going to continue bulking and strength training until Christmas, then will start cutting. Might be time to start changing things up then.

That sounds pretty cool, too. *sits quietly in a meditative state waiting for NMS release date*

Martial scored again. I like the guy already. Exactly what we needed to be honest, somebody with pace, strength and who can put the bluddy ball into the goal. Sometimes that's all you need, somebody who is clinical and a bit no-nonsense.

So tempted to fly to Germany and hit you in real life.

I can't agree with any of this. Plus, I don't even think it's that real of an "issue" anyway. Every newcomer to the series will test what they can and can't do during gameplay. How many of us tried hookshotting Epona or attempted to fire arrows or launch bombs at friendly villagers? It's part of exploration, isn't it? Finding out what you can and can't do. Also, The Witcher 3 makes it very clear what you can and can't do. It plays differently to Zelda anyway, but there's prompts that pop up when you are able to interact with objects or pick up things like herbs. It's all done/explained/shown quite clearly and it's never at once confusing. You quickly learn what you can and can't do, much like the majority of other games out there. On a side note, I had a slight inner-lol at your comment about The Witcher 3 being similar in scope to Zelda. Sorry, it's on another level entirely. Are you honestly saying you wouldn't play a Zelda that looked like either The Witcher 3 or that video in the opening post? Like hell you wouldn't. We'd all play the shit out of it and you know it.

Yup, it looks great. There's tons of potential to create a beautiful Zelda game, but we knew that already. I'd happily play a Zelda game in this style. I don't really understand what you mean here. From what that small video shows and what it's based on, it's clear to me what you can touch and what you can't. Those pots, for example, can be broken. Those doors can be opened. Those steps can be walked on. Zelda already has a clear set of mechanics and, I guess, rules of what you can and can't do anyway.

That's insane. I like Lewandowski a lot. A proper striker.

Everybody I know wants them to use Cassette Tapes. It should make it easier to record your own soundtracks to your favourite games. Just insert it into any Radio/Cassette player, hit Record and rap like you're LL Cool J.

Are any of the League Cup matches being shown on telly on channels aside from Sky or BT? I've had a quick browse and I'm assuming that's a no unless I've gone full retard.

I've forgotten when that battle takes place. What's just happened in the story? Where are you? As for the difficulty spike: Yup. This game does have them. It's a lovely game, but there are definitely moments that piss me off. Have you been doing any sidequests?

Sometimes he plays on the right, other times he's behind the striker in the number 10 position.

I haven't touched mine in aaaaaaaaaages. From about June/July last year onwards, it's been all about the PS4 for me. I've had an insane year and a bit with playing one great game and then rolling straight into another one. Rocket League + Spotify is amazing. Played the shit out of that.

A very interesting game against Southampton. They were the better team in the first half and we scored against the run of play. Then, they didn't really come out in the second half. The goal right at the end made it nervy, but that's a good win away from home. Southampton were unlucky not to get something from the game and played well, particularly in the first half. Martial looks comfortable up front and it's great to have some movement, pace and strength up there.

It's insane, isn't it? I'm watching @Eenuh play it and it makes me want to go through the whole thing again.

In fairness to West Ham, they were still in and competing in both of those games and could have also got something from them. That 3-4 game against Bournemouth was insane. The behaviour in the Chelsea/Arsenal match yesterday was disgraceful. Costa definitely should have been sent off first and the sending off to Gabriel wouldn't have occurred had that happened. I like aggression in football and I'm all for teams having passion and showing a bit of grit against each other. But, what Costa did was wrong and he should have walked.

My god, the plane controls in this game are dire.

Just bought the DLC/Expansion for my favourite game evaaar and the Game of the Year. Hnnnnnnggggggg. Fucking love Gwent.

I did worry that this had been forgotten about completely. Now...more info/date on Rime, pleaseee.

The scrollable shoulder buttons sound interesting. But, there's a distinct lack of overall buttons there, especially on the face. Are we also thinking that those sticks are the 3DS-style circle pads, too? Not a fan of them really.

You're paraphrasing this one all wrong. It's meant to be, "A delayed game is bad forever, meanwhile a rushed game may be very bad, also." A delay for this is wise as it currently looks like shit.

The more I think on it, the more I think it's a crock of shit. Unless there's a World Cup/European Championship/International Game, there's very little football that will be shown at all. Especially domestic. I can't believe it's been allowed to get to this stage. Absolutely this. We should be able to opt-out yet still have access to the channels that aren't run by the BBC. We do get hit with the shit stick. ITV, Channel Four, etc have advertisements. BBC STILL has advertisements (fuck you, it still counts), so...why are we paying this fee again? You know what, I wish television was a bit more like Spotify. You pay roughly the same money in terms of fees, yet you have no-advertisements, access to a huge library on demand. You know what else? It works abroad, too. I can't watch iPlayer in Belgium despite paying for my tv licence.

That's a great guess. I'm impressed. I honestly don't think I could say without their being a hint of bias there. When you're in your teenage years, I guess you are more than a little self-centered and you don't see the wider picture. To me, being a teenager was all about my friends, family, videogaming, football and discovering the opposite sex. When I was growing up, the internet was just becoming this big thing, whereas now it's everywhere. There's facebook, twitter, youtube, instagram and everything that comes with it. People have a better way of connecting now than they did when I was a teenager, but it's also a platform for showing off or even bullying. It's definitely been the biggest change because the internet influences life at every possible level. From checking our your friend's profile, to watching a video in Geography to listening to music between lessons to online gaming at home. That's probably been the biggest change, I think. In terms of pressures, I still can't work out whether it's a constant generational thing and if it's something that is always done to the next lot. "Back in my day, it was much harder!" Maybe it's always been this way.

Gamessssss. Incredible year for gaming, tbh. Going to get Battlefront, too. Possibly Fallout and MGS. Tearaway at some point. Ahhhhhhh.
