  1. Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

    God damn the Wiiu gamepad is ugly compared to that.........man i wish i didn't want to keep my WiiU for WWhd and TPhd now
  2. The 'Other' Switch Thread

    Its what i've done, i've traded loads of stuff in, got about £150 so far and i need to sell my Albw 3DS XL so i'll be close to it For being £20 close to it, id go for it certainly, if worst comes to worst you play zelda get bored or hate how online works and sell it for the same money (doubt it would drop by any significant amount)
  3. Final Fantasy XII Remaster (PS4 - 2017)

    Everyone on gaf thought it was going to be a stealth release when they discovered it had gone gold or some shit + the 'BIG' announcements and thought "oh shit its gonna be soon" I feel into that trap too, July is a loooooong way off for me (and i still want a Vita version)
  4. House buying is the worst

    Well, I've bought a house! £169k in the same estate where i grew up, three bed semi detached backing onto Templenewsam Woods, couldn't be happier! After the last nonsense i kept rather quiet on this one, fearing the same situation could occur during the survey stage and when it brought up some faults (asbestos garage roof that was damaged - football sized hole in it) i shat myself. Went to the vender asking all coy that we'd like to discuss options and ideally meet the vender some way as we were at our limits and first time buyers yadda yadda, and they took pitty on us and said they'd inquire about replacing the garage roof and then negotiate. Well it was like winning the lottery, they came back saying it would cost about £1500..........and they'd have the work done on the condition we completed the sale within the next 2 weeks, we signed the very next day! absolutely buzzin! we get the keys next Tuesday, so aside from something going wrong (fingers crossed it doesn't) i shoudl be moving soon
  5. Doctor Who

    Its a shame because he looked the part and for a few episodes was very very good, unfortunately the writing sucks so its been a generally poor run with him as Doctor, so its a good thing Moffat is finally leaving too
  6. Yooka-Laylee

    If i had any sort of date for a switch version i'd switch to that, but i'll stick with the PS4 game
  7. The 'Other' Switch Thread

    Gotta keep this thread light hearted even if we disagree
  8. The 'Other' Switch Thread

    Look Can we build A wall around this argument and make this thread great again? Maybe we should make the original WiiU/Switch thread users pay for the wall too
  9. Destiny

    With a decent role I found the IB sniper to be pretty awesome
  10. The Avengers (and other Marvel games)

    So Crystal Dynamics (Tomb Raider, Legacy of Kain) and Eidos Montreal (Deus Ex).......... so we could get a Marvel Game that is a cross between Tomb Raider with Deus Ex, with its own unique flair? Sign me up now
  11. Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

    La Noire is a really odd choice, i have it for the PC and played 6 hours before i uninstalled it That said if its remastered and they tweek some of its issues (like the dialogue options and not being abe to restart conversations or return to question lines) it might be quite good! I do feel kind of forced to buy it so Rockstar continue support GTAV could work on Switch, but i think GTA online could be the issue - the online for the Switch is unknown and then its not exactly going to work on the go is it? I'd prefer Red Dead Redemption, but from what people are saying on Gaf the reason thats not had a remaster is because the code is such a mess (comparatively) it would need rebuilding for Ps4/Xbox/Switch. I'd love to see Alien Isolation too, it could lend well to portable play (i basically played the game from corridor to corridor) I don't mind remasters at all, its a relatively quick way to get a game library for the Switch, ideally i'd like every WiiU game to be ported so i can flog the WiiU
  12. Thats probably along the right lines, after all Jedi and Sith are both plural as well as singular so it fits eitherway. Not sure why everyone thinks Luke will get killed off
  13. Is anyone following the Hulk Hogan Vs Gawker Media trial (owners of Kotaku) Gawker Media with a net worth of $300million a TL: DR version is Hulk hogan was filmed having sex (without his knowledge), in it he said some racist things also, Gawker got this secretly filmed tape and plastered it all over their website - the same website that complained about the celebrity nude icloud hack "the Fappening" Hulk Hogan takes them to court and sues them for $100 million - a laughable sum but considering the hipicorisy and how he was filmed without his knowledge, Gawkers defence of it being in the public interest was weak as shit and despite hilarious jurors being dismissed for being angry at him for certain wrestling matches the trial has gone ahead He only fucking won, despite it best guesses of a potential moral victory and him getting modest sum........ $55 million in economic injuries + $60 milliion for emotional distress = a massive amount in damages owed by Gawker And punitive damages will be tacked on top of that $110 million So what does this mean for Kotaku (and the other media outlets) owned by Gawker Is this the end for Kotaku? Loving the obvious wrestling related puns and gif's that are blowing up on twitter right now Schadenfreude to the max right now
  14. Well Luke is the last Jedi, Rey is barely an apprentice at the start of VIII, by the end of it there could be more Jedi
  15. Mainstream Piracy

    I'm amazed how many people have Kodi boxes and don't understand how it works and how its illegal My girlfriend is in the TA and her senior officer recommended she got a Kodi box and get shot of Sky because you get all the same programmes for free. when I said it was illegally streaming/downloading she actually called up this 50 odd year old bloke and asked him and he said it was perfectly legal - like you Rez - because it was from Amazon After a lengthy argument chat I had to show my girlfriend several consumer websites for her to believe me! I think people are ignorant of what these things are and because its become so common place the Police are slow to knock off these things
  16. Go ask her out, I don't even think you need to make an excuse to bump into her,just go in and say you'd been thinking about her and ask her out
  17. Super Mario Run Episodes

    No unfortunately not you have to pay for the full game
  18. Nicknames

    This is how i'm going to picture you from now on
  19. Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

    What the hell does an oppressed former communist state have to do with the Switch? are they being manufactured there?
  20. Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

    Probably is shit luck, but i'm currently hating my controller, I blame the 400hours of destiny! And Phone Screens! I don't get how people smash them so frequently Just catching up and were on vocie chat again.......That quote is just all over the place and so vague! It can't be solely Phone App for voice chat/lobbies etc it just can't be! This surely has to be ANOTHER case of nintendo not communicating their meaning. I truely believe it has OS voice chat but with a very good app to control it on your phone that gives you options the alternative is just insane! what about people with dumb phones? Windows or Blackberry? how would your phone even manage a lobby for an online game and link up seamlessly with the audio etc? surely it introduces a Lag If this was any other company we wouldn't even be considering they'd go that route, but this is nintendo and sometimes they embrace the crazy
  21. Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

    Not that i'm disagreeing with your whole point (the pad is too expensive, so are the PS4 and Xbox ones too) but fuck me the DS4 is not a solid pad! Most of my Friends have PS4's, i regularly go to 4 of their houses for parties, to chill etc and play some Rocket League, Fifa or something. Between the four houses there are 10 pads and all bar about 3 have destroyed thumb stick rubbers My own DS4 died this last week, the R2 will no longer register a full pull of the trigger, which I discovered on Final Fantasy 15 where Controls for Chocobo are Trot using R2 and Sprint Square, but you can only sprint when fully at trotting speed. After testing it on other games some worked, some didn't depending on how much of a trigger pull it needed. Took it apart and the rubbers over the circuit board get split open by the shape of the back of the trigger (googled it and its a known fualt), I tried every quick fix and none worked and resorted to buying a replacement piece That too has now stopped working as it seems the actual board if probably damaged now because i'd obviously been adjusting pressure on the sensor to compensate for it lacking in sensitivity. Whilst i had it apart i discovered what the rattle its always had was - a random screw just loose in the casing, with no hole it was meant to be in, so just a spare in the casing from being manufactured Its the worst pad i've ever owned for reliability second only to the WiiU Gamepad, where the rumble now squeeks so has to be left off (not paying £90 for it repairing) I think Sony, Nintendo (can't say for MS but i'd hazard the guess) have all started producing inferior pads that are poorly manufactured so as to put in extra tech....... and then charge a premium for it!
  22. Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

    Aaaaaaaaaaaand i've caved and pre-ordered it with Nintendo
  23. Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!

    So.......uhhhh......do the nintendo store take money up front? or on shipping? I've already ordered breath of the wild for switch at amazon's lower price of £47, i just kind of need the console to play it on now
  24. Nicknames

    how about Ashley and DiscountAshley? or if one of you has facial hair they can be called Mustache I've always been Chris but when i worked somewhere and a Kris joined they started calling us by our surnames, not overly keen on that In highschool, whilst on the bus home some guy who thought he was funny called me Chipmunk because he said i looked like the ones in the cartoon, more specifically Theodore not even the cool one! - he promptly got a black eye
