Might as well get it online Joshi, just in case they sell out really quick. : peace:

Out now, third in the successful Forza Horizon series, an open-world driving game with races, jumps, billboards and so much more besides. I personally enjoyed the first game very much indeed, skipped the second even though I wanted to play it but never got around to it and have now returned to the series as this seems to be the best entry yet. This time you get to drive across an Australian-inspired map with a focus on seamless multiplayer, (if you want it) custom challenges and just pure fun in a game which doesn't take itself too seriously at all... ...I mean it allows you to race in a Warthog from Halo so it's clearly not going for all out realism on any meaningful level. Having said that, you can still play how you like, have realistic damage or have the car moreorless drive itself by turning on about a dozen assists, personally I like to switch them all off aside from the realistic damage which is more of a pain but each to their own. I must have played around... four hours yesterday without realising it incidentally it's the first time in ages I've actually turned on my Xbox One to play something, so it must be good. So anyone who's currently playing, planning on picking it up or is perhaps just curious about it after recently purchasing a New Xbox One S possibly... here's a place to talk about the game, share some experiences and enjoy what the Horizon Festival has to offer in the land down under. :awesome: Now if only there was a proper way to stream music in the background for free without compromising the screen display size then it truly would be near-perfect, come on Microsoft... you told us it would be happening soon, it was all possible on the Xbox 360. Ah well, I'll just have to unlock more tolerable in-game radio stations for now. :p

Pre-ordered this package for that Fire Bar amiibo display stand... ...and the Boo amiibo of course. :wink: But that display stand is a pretty nice bonus. : peace: Oh and let's not forget that notebook!

Mine is... Metal Mutiny Metal-Mutiny Metal-Mutiny Colour-coded for platform. : peace:

I feel just about comfortable with an external 3TB hard drive attached to mine.

Price of the DLC... £4.20 / €4.99 That's for Eight tracks, Ten vehicles and Eighteen new pieces of music all new to the game! Phenomenal value, I had wondered if there would be an offer for anyone buying the game digitally plus the dlc but at that price, there's no need! : peace:
-
Go for it Joshi! I'd go for the original PS4 model personally if you can still find them, still plenty of good deals regardless, get the one with the biggest hard drive you can find, I think you can get 1TB out of the box now, either way you'll need the hard drive space for all the games you can get on it.

So, just over a week ago before my holiday I did actually catch up with the person from work just before she left, I was on my break anyway so as she was leaving I mentioned that I have the week off and wondered if she wanted to hang out or whatever... (it came out as something dumb like that) She said that she's kind of busy at the moment what with work, life and that she only really gets one full day off... so I said OK, no worries but here... *passes a piece of paper with name/number on* if you do get a chance to then give me a call if you like. And I think I said something like... You're a really nice person, then it was kind of like awkward, anyway... see you later, bye. The next day though... she was definitely avoiding eye contact and seeming like she didn't want to talk so I just kept my head down, got through the day (as I knew I was on holiday after that) but damn did I feel awful. I've had a week off now, I'm back to work tomorrow and am going in ealier than usual as I'm helping them out but I'm kind of dreading it now a bit, perhaps a week will have been long enough... maybe it will have been "forgotten" but I just really hope that I haven't made things super awkward now, if I have then I know that I'm going to feel awful about it, I probably should as well on some level. What do you reckon? Should I just not mention it unless it's mentioned? If things are weird then I think I should maybe apologise if I get the chance at least... perhaps it'll be fine though and I'm just worrying about nothing. Suffice to say, I never seem to learn... but I wouldn't have done it if I didn't think there was a chance, looking back now though I just wonder if it was all in my head.

Made by former members of CiNG you say? Well, it's certainly on my radar now, I loved the Another Code games and Hotel Dusk so I'll almost certainly be getting this if it lives up to expectations. Thanks for the heads-up. : peace:
-
Thanks for the hunts tonight @Glen\-i and for the hunter arts tips. For some reason it just didn't occur to me to make proper use of them, Zelda sword spin and unrealistic dodge all the way now though! We ripped through most of those quests in no time. As I said, back to work tomorrow though so I possibly won't be on as much but still I intend to put in a few hours here and there when I can. : peace:
-
Blimey! Just when I thought the game couldn't get any better, they team up with Yacht Club Games to include a fully 3D modelled and "voiced" Shovel Knight cameo? Makes you wonder what other hidden extras might make it into the final build, sterling stuff! For shovelry! :awesome: They should use Shovel Knight as a "mark of shovelry" (like Nintendo's seal of quality but... more shovel-like) to indicate that an indie title is fit for shoveling in. It could be seen as ironic in a way too, the opposite of shovel-ware.
-
Hmm, in that case how about I tentatively say from 7PM? We can still cut off at least... the same amount of tails as a Vulpix has in that time I'm sure! Probably not as many as Ninetails has though, I forget how many that is... Twelve maybe? :wink: But yeah, half that for sure. There will likely be more kick-related K-O's than a Hitmonlee in a Pokémon ranch can muster as well.

It was certainly a PROFESSIONAL!!1! evening of Monster Hunting! 10/10, enjoyed, would hunt again! Tomorrow, probably though I probably won't be on for as long as I'm back to work on Monday. But yeah, aside from that, all is good! : peace:

N-Europe Presents VC Weekly #387 The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask Nintendo Presents: Style Boutique Link tries on some masks... ...while I try on some virtual outfits. Check inside for the verdicts. Enjoy! : peace:

Thank you to @Glen\-i, @Ugh first aid and @Dcubed for another fun and productive night of hunting. It all went swimmingly well, and I totally didn't get K-O'd by a Blangonga, definitely not, no chance, impossible... ...well maybe a little bit. But we killed it good straight after so balance is restored! :awesome:
-
Oh is that out already? Or did you get an early/digital copy? Either way you've reminded me, so I've ordered it. Loved the first Horizon, missed out on the second but the third looks like the best yet from the E3 footage, it's all about racing in a pesistent world online/offline seamless integration is it not? I can't remember who I had added on my Xbox... it has been ages since I switched the machine one but if you're not on there then I'll add you and if you are then well... see you online soon hopefully! : peace: I'm playing on the old Xbox One though so I'll probably be lagging behind because you know... that technical difference, games running a few frames higher will be interesting to see anyway.
-
I'd be interested. Technically I've already donated but if it's an extra £5 to enter then so be it. : peace: Anyway, it's a good idea and for a good cause too and as it happens I have that week off work, leading up to plus including that weekend so as long as it is on the Saturday or Sunday then I'll almost certainly be in for this. On yeah, almost forgot...

I'm sorry to hear that Hannah. An awful thing to have happened, at least you can still adopt another kitty as you've said but I know that's not much consolation to you right now. You've such a kind heart though and any cat would be lucky to have you as their owner, all the best to you, I hope you feel better soon.

8PM I reckon.

He did what? Unthinkable... Panzer Dragoon Orta is an amazing game, although if you don't have an original Xbox accessible to play it then I can kind of understand as it's only compatible on the Xbox 360 to a certain point. Oh what I'd give for there to be digital downloads of original Xbox games available on the Xbox One, especially seeing as the console will surely be around for a good few years yet, why not make it the ultimate Xbox platform encompassing ALL titles which were released for all of the systems? Just like what I'd give to have a downloadable version of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door or even a HD re-release with the same quality of visuals as Paper Mario: Colour Splash has. Though I must say, as each day passes... this new title does look all the more enticing when taken at face value.

An amazing interview on Super Mario 64 which has been lovingly translated from Japanese to English by someone over at http://shmuplations.com/ which seems like a really awesome site as it sounds like it started out as just shmup translations but has branched out recently thanks in part to Patreon. One choice part from the translation... Disclaimer - while I'm not promoting the hurling of cute animals through the air and off high geometric locations, within the context of Super Mario 64 the idea is quite hilarious. (laughs) Anyway, you can find the link below, I read it from start to finish and really enjoyed it. http://shmuplations.com/mario64/

It was pretty amazing, partially thanks to those new dual blades I was finally able to upgrade not once but twice for that shiny blue sharpness level, they go through bone like butter! :wink: Much decimation was had as we sliced through quests after that, @Dcubed joined up and we all played late into the night, well late enough anyway, half twelve... hence I would have posted here sooner but alas I was K-O'd by tiredness. A really fantastic evening of hunts and all round enjoyable text-based conversation though, plus as a bonus I finally reached HR 5 so thank you, I should have reached it sooner really I suppose but other games took over for a while, as I said though I will try and play more when I can.

OK, I'll be on in 5 mins.
