Soooooo Rhythm Shooters. Sounds like a crap idea. HOLY SHIT IT IS AWESOME!!!!!! It's basically Doom, but shooting in time to the music does extra damage, dashing in time to the music is better, and reloading in time to the music is twice as fast. There's also a powerful finisher that is (yup, you guessed it) in time to the music. It shouldn't be this much fun, but when you pull off a slick dash kill 180 headshot finisher reload kill some more......... it's amaze balls. Download the demo, forget what you think you play an fps like and go ham. The music is epic too, Serj Tankian etc, depending on the multiplier depends on how much music plays, 16x multiplier is EPIC music time so play with headphones.

With Modern Warfare II’s launch fast approaching, some questions remain; what strides are Infinity Ward taking to make Modern Warfare II a fresh experience? Similar to its predecessor, Infinity Ward plans to refine its parkour system, drawing inspiration from Mirror’s Edge: Catalyst, as well as with the introduction of all-new features and mechanics; here’s the scoop! With Modern Warfare II’s multiplayer maps sticking to a more tight and hard-lined approach to level design; players will be able to meddle with these mechanics in Warzone 2, putting these new features to the test in a larger, more variable playground; using the environment to your advantage! Movement Ladders & Ropes With Ladders, you’ll be able to vertically position the equipment alongside walls, containers, and buildings; though if not supported, it will fall and shatter, causing the Field Upgrade to reset. For Ropes, You’ll be able to repel down, and scale up buildings with this tool. whilst repelling, players can also swing through windows, or into collapsed walls. You can also attach the rope to vehicles and players, allowing for a quick getaway for downed players. Shifting & Strafing Strafing lets you move sideways in any direction, as well as backwards. Say you get too close to a threat, or you turn a corner where you’re at a disadvantage, you can shift out of the area to clear some space and get a better view of your options and surroundings. Wall-climb Players will be able to vertically clamber up walls, this feature is determined by the height of the platform you’re trying to reach and mount. Ledge-hanging You’ll be able to hang off and grab onto ledges. Call of Duty’s newest mechanic that allows players to reach for impracticable platforms, also reduces fall damage. Players will also be able to use their sidearm whilst ledge-hanging. Sliding Sliding has since been revised, allowing for players to now slide into a prone position, as well as down angled inclines and slopes. Bunny-hopping Bunny-hopping is dependent on the height a player falls from; the greater the height, the more speed boost you will gain onto your bunny-hop. Gameplay features Exigency hip-fire (Quick sidearm draw) A feature that allows you to quickly switch to your sidearm with one hand, this can also be done with lethals. Suppressor Meter You can change the size of suppressors and depending on the size it’ll affect recoil, damage, and ranges. There’ll exist a meter that players will be able to mess with and find their balance. Weapon handling (Grips) An operator will have the option of choosing between a set of different tactical handlings and techniques; this can affect the accuracy and speed of a weapon, some examples include a Magwell Grip, and C-Clamp Grip. Magazine check animation -For modes with limited heads-up-display (HUD), you’ll be able to inspect a weapons magazine count. Reticle ammunition count New design where reticles display a weapons ammo count, seen with revolvers and shotguns. These refined and renewed mechanics will give fans a new learning-curve, that’ll allow players to effectively interact with, practice, and master stringing together unfamiliar gameplay features.

I invented dice when I was 6 years old then retired. J/K I work in retail, more specifically I work for Tesco.

I'm a wage slave whose taxes fund all sort of depraved immoral government policies.

Stupid competition right before a World Cup. More importantly Spurs look like they're properly building a squad. Just worried Bissouma has some sort of cloud over him that I've not looked into yet...great buy if all good.

The new map is excellent, highly recommend trying it out. Such a shame its only one. If that's all there's going to added map-wise until September, they'll have left it too late to save this game.

This game has incredible potential - demo available on Steam via the Next Fest event if you want to give it a shot. It's basically a spiritual successor to F.E.A.R and it looks visually fantastic. Doesn't quite carry the same level of horror and I'm really not keen on the name but this is really one to watch!

Here you go John @Tar-Eruntalion , if you just copy and paste the youtube link in the text box here, it should automatically embed. Yeah, looks decent tbh. Not something i would naturally pick up but would be interested to hear more from others.

So just had a meeting with one of my directors at work (the one that's more likely to be grumpy than not). He made a comment about me being indespensable which was surprisingly nice! But it made me think of yesterday's bored at work thread and in turn wondering what everyone does for a living on here? 🙂

This has my inner child just beaming! I still have my SNES copy of Turtles in Time!

This releases tomorrow!!!!! 6 player co-op!! ONLINE!!! And, It's getting some great reviews! This should be a fun one with some FGers!

How much does it come up in the rotation? Worthwhile enough to give it a few tries?

Your thread piqued my interest, what do you do @Luseth ? Me? I'm a laboratory and technical operations manager at one of the world's most interesting places. A few tidbits: we have a tree which is grown from a sprig from Newton's actual apple tree, my client designed the bouncing bomb for the Dambusters, and Alan Turing did a load of research here in his early days. We also have an atomic clock which dictates the time around the world, accurate to within 1 second every one hundred million years. I could go on and on, but I'll let you Google it if you're interested 😄 Here's a video from Tom Scott: I was moving furniture for £50 a day when I moved to London in 2006.

Irish folk is ok, quite like the Dubliners, Luke Kelly etc, I was more referring to Daniel O'Donnel and that shite😉

I intend to go back to this game when I get a Steam Deck. Will start a new character for it eventhough I'm not a fan of how the game starts... I'll get round to buying the new Baldurs Gate when they finish that too.

Kowloon is a 10/10 for me and would love to see it. From BO1 a Treyarch game, so it would never crossover to MW or I highly doubt it.

I've tried Stadia and to be fair to them, the controller feels nice and I had a much better experience streaming through Stadia over WiFi, than I did using Microsoft's streaming service through GamePass on an ethernet connected to the pc!

I disagree on this. I think it could do quite well. Stadia's business model was poor, you had to pay full price for a game you didn't really own. Xbox Game Pass library for a monthly fee is a different kettle of fish. Infrastructure and latency will be a factor for sure but I do see people buying into it... if it works...

I'm still waiting on a version of Kowloon for the modern game, I'll never get it I know... but that alone would make me buy another COD. MW2019 was the last one I bothered with.

Yeah, I'll enjoy thinking about it. While my go to genres tend to be punk or reggae/ska I have always listened to everything I can. Except disco/garage/rnb/Irish country music, all of which I avoid as they send me up the wall 😁

after Cloudpunk and it's dlc we finally got a look at Ionlands new cyberpunk game set in their beautiful voxel world called Nivalis, i really loved the atmosphere and the music in cloudpunk and it had some nice stories but it is a great game to just fire up and drive around the city in your hova, it's so relaxing with nivalis the world seems richer and with better graphics and although the theme is different from the taxi driver you were in cloudpunk, in this one you run a restaurant/coffee shop/bar and it seems you manage how it looks and operates while hearing stories etc from your customers about their life in a cyberpunk world I really look forward to playing this someday, what's everyones opinion on it? ps i couldn't figure how to make the video play from here so i just put it in a link

ah i see Lee, thank you, i thought i had to use the link option from the toolbar when you comment which is next to emojis, gifs etc

I know man 5 Albums just isn't enough, the honorable mentions could of easily made the list. 50 more albums could of been added lol. Music can take you to a certain time or place, the happiness it can make is undeniable. My list could of had Black Sabbath, The Beastie Boys, Stevie Wonder or Jimi Hendrix on it amongst many others. My taste in music is far and wide. I will say commercial pop stuff isn't for me and also I hate country music. Anything else I will happily give it a go or a listen. I just wanted to share some stuff I've always liked and hoped others would too! Always looking for something I may have missed or not given enough of a chance. 2nd coming is class and Black Sunday is absolutely superb. "I'm a chickenhawk huntin for a chicken, Get paranoid when you hear my glock clickin" Look forward to your list Phil 😎

Yeah with Soom T, proper good Reggae. Mungos Hi fi are from Glasgow in Scotland. The one I just posted with Marina P has that proper "Belly Ska" sound. I knew you would be in to it as you appreciate the genre and Reggae in general. A man of culture Phil. Got to love Bob Marley, Lee Scratch Perry, Gregory Issacs, King Tubby for all his dub influence back in the day. So many others I'm sure. You will probably enjoy this as it's the same singer (Soom T) as "Did You Really Know" she has an amazing voice.

5 favourite albums is a tough one, might have to come back to you on that. Of your picks, its the honourable mentions that I like. Black Sunday is a very dark feeling album and the 2nd Coming is very underrated 🙂

Good choice sir, they have another song, "Did you really know" that I like and keep on a playlist.

I am really surprised they haven't done one of these films like 20-30 or even 100 years on from the dinosaurs escaping, a time where they have had chance to breed and multiply and now humans face extinction type of scenario. Seems like an easy win to me and a way to take the series in a new direction.

For seriously though, could we implement a stick up system? Post proof of holding people up and robbing their shoes for a small reward or something. Limited to 1 submission per day

This is your friendly reminder to NOT WATCH JURASSIC PARK AT THE CINEMA. It's a lame turd of a film, with not 1 single redeeming feature. It's a cut and paste of most of the others. Rich man builds park for dinosaurs, claims its safe, but "OH NO!" it's not safe, and rich man is bad. 1/10

My only suggestion is to make TheMuggySpud invincible for the first 3 months. Then after that, maybe make it permanent for him. Cause he's shite.

I just watched Hustle with Adam Sandler, It's a bit strange seeing him in a less comical film / role. The film itself is actually really quite good, about a basketball scout who somewhat gambles his career on a player he thinks is the next big thing. The films got a lot of story that hits the right boxes for emotions etc... Thought it was really good, the story is a little cliche but the acting throughout was great but it also show's how brutal sport can be in terms of recruitment at younger levels and how one moment can be the difference between making it as a professional or going back to a menial job like the rest of us. Though it's based on basketball I imagine it applies to football in a similar fashion.

@GazzaGarratt I do like the series but it's not without it's flaws! Fallout New Vegas is probably the best of the series but I enjoyed Fallout 4 and Fallout 76. It's very much a love it / hate it series of games though so if you don't enjoy them you never will 🙂

Awesome @crispymorgan I'll have to check this out. There was one released not that long ago that had a similar vibe. BPM: Bullets Per Minute.

3D modelling eh? @Greboth would i'm sure very much like some of your best efforts to be shared with his here 😎 its in the Hobbies section I think, or could be Cars as he's pretty good at that too. Job wise, happiness is the ultimate goal. Need to get the balance of not just always chasing the money so totally understand staying put if its great...and clearly nice chill days like today. FO76 is a game I wanted to get into but struggled. The idea that we could have a server was more interesting as I couldn't keep my self interest there on Single Player. Assuming you played the previous Fallouts then, which one would you say ranks highly?

Seems to be a faithful remastering if an already remastered title rather than a complete remake. TLOU1 running on the sequel’s tech will look amazing but it still feels a bit of a pointless venture. The one saving grace appears that they won’t tamper with it narratively which is an almighty relief

Oh nice! Forgot about this one since its initial announcement. Looks like CDPR are gonna get upstaged once again🤣

Weird. I thought it had said June 15th on the switch store... Oh, wait. That's Shredders Revenge I was thinking of. Sorry @GazzaGarratt

The game comes out this week! I'm looking forward to rocking this with some FGers! I just hope it's a polished experience. I still have my SNES copy of Turtles in Time as well. Such a great game!

The whole Ninja/Dead Silence thing is a 50/50 double edged sword. Yes people can camp harder being silent, but the real goblins are laying prone and not moving. The footsteps are irrelevant. However the people who do want to rush and move about are being punished with the loud footsteps and maybe getting killed the odd time from it. (Especially in Search) So that makes the aggressive players maybe rethink their tactics and slow down, which then before they realise they are actually camping and getting a VTOL. Ultimately becoming the thing they hate ("Camper"). I think Cold War and Vanguard got Ghost right. In those games you have to move a little at least or it won't be affective if your stationary for too long. In MW19 you can be absolutely still and Ghost works 100%.

Yep. And its so damn good. Can't beat an uplifting song that gives everything else that gets you down a big FU. 👊

Unfortunately that's all I hear, and I didn't rate many of the previous films however as the wife went to see maverick it looks like she won't listen to my pleas for clemency and I may be forced to sit through that turd.😡

Great idea Lee, shame it's not crossplay 👍
