Okay, so I have a PS5 console which I have owned since 2022 or 2023 and it’s the original PS5 not the slim or the pro and so far I have had no issues with it until today. Today when I went to click on my account, it was stuck for a good 10 minutes on the "Please wait…" loading screen and when I tried to click on the Paramount+ app, it was taking too long to load that too and there was this black little box at the bottom that had white writing says "Please wait…" and the blue screen in the background with the Paramount+ logo. I don’t know what is wrong with it, I tried doing the hard reset where turn the console off, press and hold the power button until it beeps twice and goes into safe mode and then cleared the system cache as well as rebuild the database but nothing seems to work! I would take it to my local tech store to have it repaired but I am scared they will wipe everything off and I’ll lose all of my screenshots and videos because they told me that they always do a factory reset when repairing consoles. Can anybody please help me?

Some new footage. Looks pretty good but £50 for a remaster of a remaster of a remaster is a big ask. Some good mission customisation but no MP. Let's not forget that the MCC for the same price got you the entire collection and every MP component on top.

Well, that's a bit of a bugger! 😞 https://www.itfc.co.uk/news/2026/june/10/kieran-mckenna-to-step-down-as-ipswich-town-manager/

Have yall been paying attention to the World Cup news from over here? Fuck me, its a total shit show. Between not allowing the Iranian team to stay in the country, so they have to go back out to Mexico after every game There's a Somali Referee that isn't allowed in the country, and no one knows why, even though Somalia gave him diplomatic passport The England Team was practicing and a gunman showed up, and 12 people (not on the team) were injured The Japanese Team has had to move facilities twice because of flooding...

I've disabled all plugins and stuff to speed it up a bit whilst @GazzaGarrattand I migrate us to a new host. During this process I'm also gonna trim back some of the unused guff, so if you're missing any features please let us know. Any that aren't reported missing for a month will remain in hibernation until needed. Also, all settings and profile stuff is saved, so don't worry about anything being lost, when we reinstate the plugins and mods they'll be there nice and fresh.

Slower than molasses in january

Looking forward to this and it's on console also

Finally!

Yes, its being depressing me for some time, and I can only apologise for the issues we have had for a while. The big news is that I've pressed a button behind the scenes that starts the ball rolling on a big change to the future of moving FG forward. I don't want to jump in on it too much right now as we'll need quite abit of work but I'm prepared to make it happen and hopefully we'll have some more hands on support from other FGers to make it so. This place is here for all and I want it to remain that way forever.

Honestly it's looking like what I expected. I am sure it is fun enough to play but these triple A games are competing with less expensive games that play just as well and often have things these titles don't, good story, new mechanics and such. I only have so much time for gaming and have quite the backlog currently so my new game expenditure has dropped right off. For me the perfect Bond game would build upon what was done in Alpha Protocol years back.

Honestly I don't think I have played the dlc's properly despite owning the game of the year version. I have reinstalled it though so maybe once my current games are completed with I will move back onto it. I always fancied getting the platinum trophy and don't think I was far away from memory.

Unfortunately yes. @GazzaGarratt is aware as we spoke about it the other evening.

Blood and Wine was one of the best DLC's I've ever played. I will definitely be getting this.

I'll definitely be getting this. The Witcher 3 is excellent and the Blood & Wine DLC was great fun.

The Ninja perk is in the game so it's already better than MW2 🤣

Should keep people occupied until Black Ops 8 eh

There is going to be a large bundle sale here soon if anyone wants to jump in one last time but missed some of the seasons.

You still need to finish Fallout 4 Phil🤣

I just watched Mack's review on WAB and he's the only one that has really pulled the game apart. I still can't get over that it's basically just Hitman-lite. The combat looks incredibly ropey and the AI looks absolutely diabolical. Doesn't look at all like a Bond-type game and looks more like a shell of HItman and Uncharted from Temu slapped over it. I think a lot of reviews have been very kind and whether that's based on low standards or because of their previous excellent work with Hitman, I just don't know. I may pick it up down the line for £15 but this really isn't a £60 title.

I've never completed Witcher 3, wasn't a massive fan but maybe it's time for me to give it another chance 🙃

Seems decent enough, like a cross between Hitman and Uncharted. I wouldn't pay 60/70 quid for it, it's less than 20 hours long, but in a sale in a year or two I might be tempted.

Out next year. If it's anything like the last two expansions then we are in for a real treat. Bit late in the day but should be a fantastic conclusion before The Witcher 4 is out.

Disappointing but hardly surprising and I'm actually shocked it didn't end sooner. Not sure why Sony were beating a dead horse for so long and I actually fear for the entire Destiny future with so much damage done to the brand in recent years. The first and biggest mistake Bungie made was going independent. They were cocky little shitbags and got way too big for their boots leading up to, and after their departure from Activision. They wanted to go alone but they could not handle the tremendous operating costs required to sustain the live service and future content, not to mention the wage bill. 3 years they lasted before they went back to square one with Sony who completely overpaid for their acquisition. Sony then let them get on with it which was a huge mistake because they got way too comfortable unlike the pressure they were under at Activision to deliver worthwhile content and on time. Sony were ultimately losing about £50m a month even when new content dropped. This was supposed to be a 10 year project with a projected 3 games but it was almost dead in the water after half that. They should've moved to Destiny 3 development before the pandemic rather than string Destiny 2 out and I think Activision would've funded it had Bungie not been so arrogant and deluded of their previous success which was somewhat fortunate despite making two really polished and accessible titles. Marathon is pretty much dead in the water a couple of months after release and I don't know what's going to happen to the staff that are left. This is another almighty calamity from Sony that will be a costly as many of their other blunders in recent times. They just love burning 9-figures on very preventable things. I really enjoyed returning to Destiny 2 last year when I picked up a lot of legacy content for about £8. I managed to get an extra 50 hours out of it in that time which was one hell of a return especially as the content would've cost close to £100 new. I tried the new Edge of Fate expansion which was so bad, I quit the game for good and the next one wasn't much better from what I heard. Many of the key staff have long gone and the mismanagement, budgeting and general negative cloud has culminated into a disappointing conclusion. Cannot believe how badly this entire brand has been fumbled over the years but it all started with Bungie being delusional and taking everything for granted. Activision may be scumbags but when you are getting hundreds of millions thrown at you and living in comfort in what is an industry in turmoil, you shouldn't upset the applecart.

Hello, for some time now I've noticed slightly longer loading times on my end. (I don't have fiber optic internet). I can't say exactly when, but it started after February.

I was shocked at the speed of it, even considering the $750 Million dollar loss that Sony took in Q2 and Q3. That being said, the game has been dead for a long time. The higher ups just couldn't help themselves and kept humping that corpse into dust
