So week 1 is out of the way, and the Falcons did what the Facons do and blew a lead in the 4th quarter AGAIN 🤦‍♂️🙄 Green Bay getting beat by the Vikings was surprising. Looks like this could be an eventful season. How did everyones teams get on?

I'll definitely be adding this one to my Christmas list! Looks amazing, thanks for sharing @J4MES OX4D 🙂

Thats always a good week 😂😂

Well patriots/packers lost so that's good.

Week 1 was delight for us redskin err football team err commanders fans, actually looked like we had an offense. Not a bad start at all !

I'm just wondering if anyone that has the game Crusader Kings 3, would be interested in starting a small multiplayer world? I don't know much about how it works but, I love the idea and think it would be fun to do something together!

Finally Too bad it's just for Xbox and Switch but at least it's been done. Hopefully we'll see a PC port in the future.

Looks pretty interesting but as mentioned in the video, the marketing behind this game has done it a complete disservice - I just hope people can see past that and that the game delivers to its potential. If anyone hasn't seen some of the marketing on social media in recent weeks, don't bother as it's absolutely mortifying.

A little while ago they release Phase 5 and Phase 6 for where the MCU was heading. Marvel Phase 5 Marvel Phase 6 (currently) I think its been a hard run to follow everything that ended Phase 3 for the MCU. The Avengers Infinity War and Endgame was quite the culmination of an era and we've all probably felt that downward slope in emotions with Phase 4 at certain points - Not sure what everyone else thinks? I do have faith though it will pick up again but expectations are set that it won't happen for quite some time. Maybe even until Phase 6 starts perhaps but I hope some of the films in Phase 5 can bring back the excitement I felt watching nearly every film in Phase 2 and 3. Blade is the one I hope that will return some good feelings, although I don't expect it to tie in to the major MCU story going on. Just not sure at the moment that some of the series shows are working for me. I really struggled with Wandavision, Loki was slightly better but didn't excite me as I first hoped. The others like Ms Marvel just feel like they have a different audience to what I want to watch which is totally understandable; just brings more of what I say to the forefront of my mind. Lets hope Wakanda Forever will seal off Phase 4 nicely and leave us with some exciting feelings for the future. Whats everyone's thoughts?

Tbh, its already started to do the job for me as it was to help me get more into the NFL game in general and i was really interested over the weekend. So much so, I think i'll find a game to put on in the background next time and try and follow some of my players. It probably also helped as I maaaaay have had a little help from @TigerBurge for who to look out for 😅😎 @Findmartin , looking forward to playing your 3 kickers next week 🤣

Ok, so week one of the FG NFL Fantasy League is in the books and these were the results and how the league looks after the first week. From how it went it looks like it will be a pretty competitive season as all the games were pretty close

I just can't work it out. Right now, just churning out the previous PES version would've been next to no cost for them and then they would've received a ton of money for it, plus staying relevant in the football gaming industry. Why would you throw away all that coding, hard work and multi-functioning parts of a really solid game because later PES games are still solid....for something that resembles the equivalent to a PS1 Demo? Mind is blown.

Out later next month and should be a good one Paradox also ran a near-4 hour stream recently which covers a hell of a lot

Are there any new games on the horizon in a similar style to 7 days/day z? As much as I love them, I feel there's no end game and ultimately I get bored.

UFL Football has been delayed until 2023 (probably a year from now if we're lucky) and I am really not convinced by it. The devs are way too quiet and evasive, and when a game can't provide worthwhile updates or gameplay footage in any state, it just adds to a suspicion that things aren't going well behind the scenes or the game doesn't really exist in much of a degree. Looks like we're gonna be stuck with FIFA rebranded and this eFootball shite for years to come. The roadmap of eFootball seems to be them slowly working towards what PES2020 was so if they keep as it is, by the year 2025, they would have remade PES2021 again😂

It still started on Friday night, its in ITV hub catch up 🙂 I tweeted about it starting and Jason Bell liked my tweet 😃

I hope one day it gets released as this would be a travesty. GoldenEye 007: Footage of Cancelled Xbox 360 Remaster Discovered - IGN WWW.IGN.COM A full playthrough and thirty minutes of multiplayer have surfaced for the cancelled Xbox Live Arcade remaster of the N64 classic GoldenEye 007.

WEEK 1 WEEK 2 DATE SEP. 16 – 17 PLATFORM PLAYSTATION® EARLY ACCESS DATE SEP. 22 - 23 PLATFORM XBOX + BATTLE.NET + STEAM EARLY ACCESS; OPEN TO ALL PLAYSTATION® PLAYERS SEP. 18 – 20 OPEN TO ALL PLAYSTATION® PLAYERS SEP. 24 - 26 OPEN TO ALL PLAYERS Hopefully it will be at least half decent.

I have both Xbox and Switch, just afraid it'll be shit and not age well, in terms of gameplay rather than graphics. If it's a complete remake with modern shooting I'd be all over it but I don't think that's the case. The original is up there with the all time greats of video games, I loved it. Don't want to tarnish my fond memories 😁

It’s cross play when it comes to multiplayer so different generations can play against each other. I’ve not been able to find details on if you can play together if cross gen. I’d assume we will be able to but probably through Activision ID’s rather than PSN’s.

Phase 4 has been a hit or miss for me thus far. Black widow should have happened many years ago but i enjoyed it enough, especially florence pugh's character, the eternals was kinda boring even though it has a cool premise, shang chi ws good but i feel like the third act was kinda weak, i really liked spiderman no way home but for me it showed how much better the previous 2 spidermen were and i haven't seen doctor strange and thor yet As for the series, having read the house of m, the comic that wandavision was loosely based on i was expecting something better, i really hoped we could see creept wanda like the first times we saw her before she became good but now being deranged/insane be some kind of cosmic/magic horror show, not the boring sitcom we got. The falcon and the winter soldier had bad antagonists with the flag breakers, they made zero sense to me, but i liked the patriot at least, loki was good enough but again the cast carried that show, hawkeye was decent for me. I liked moon knight and all the archaeological stuff in it and the cast was great, i really hope they make a new season for it. I feel like ms marvel took too long to tell a very simple origin story and it kinda declined in quality as it went and she hulk has been fine except for some stuff like 4th wall breaking that don't work for me with her and it kinda feels aimless in general. I hope they succeed like with the infinity stone saga but i think they should have had a hiatus for a few years and also not make as many stuff and stretch it out a bit cause many will get burned out

Can someone tell me if this is cross-gen at all? Do we have to get the PS4 version to play with everyone or does it matter if its the PS5 version or not? I'd like to get a bunch of us playing it this weekend but a little annoyed that Open Beta starts Sunday rather than Friday.

Post-launch support of this game has apparently been the worst ever seen of a live service. Two maps added in almost one year, lots of unfinished and missing aspects plus the awards to incentivise retention are woefully embarrassing. The studio head has just left and there's no sign of any worthwhile future content with over 90% of players departed. 343 have literally destroyed Halo - this has been their 4th chance and they've failed harder than ever before. Time to bury the series altogether IMO. Still cannot believe this is the biggest budgeted game of all time.

So when it comes to gaming news, where do you get it from? Like where do you hear about new games etc. i used to watch digital foundry on youtube for reviews but moved away because i spent more time watching vids than gaming

Never ran in a circle once. Best. Raid. Ever.

But if you don't pre-order then it's 5 button presses less that you have to do 😉

The levels is where I can start to pick up on some problems with the game. After ds2 these levels were very easy to go through. Which isn’t a good or bad thing just different. Most of the levels in this game are well designed with there paths and interconnectivity. But most of them felt unoriginal. They felt like some of the better levels in the earlier games just without providing anything new. The exceptions being irrethyll dungeons which was a new setting but not to interesting level design wise. And the cathedral. The cathedral is the hardest level in the base game. It’s very long and loops back to the same bonfire like 4/5 times. The enemy’s are challenging and the setting is unique. Unfortunately this area is capped with the worst boss in the game. I would have loved to see more varied levels but what is here is pretty good gameplay and looks amazing. Just more originality would have been better. Importantly however there is nothing offensively bad here which is more than can be said for any of the other games I’ve played.

Just finished this game with a playtime of 22 hours. Loved it. It’s my favourite of the series. The boss quality in this game in amazing and is consistently of the quality that the others only occasionally reach. The level design is generally good and never frustrating. Highly recommended.

@Riff Machine let me know when you get another raid going. I’m in if I am off.

Funnily enough GTA IV was one of the first games I installed. It's fantastic on the deck 🤗

Well I burned through season 5 this weekend, as usual once I started watching I needed to see where it was going. Johnny is great, by far my favourite character and then there is chozen 😁 It seems odd to wait for a series then it's done in no time.

The titan armor from kings Fall was always bad ass. I never had a complete set for the warlock and hunter.

Hey class armour you say you can have one of mine I've got 2 🙄 Warpriest was a ballache but did feel a sense of achievement getting that done the other week.

Yep, can have a rotation or simply focus on one game mode and map.

It's always interesting at the start of the season to see who the surprise of the season might be. I went looking for the bills/ rams highlights and it looked like it could have gone eitherway but the bills capitalized more on turnovers. But it was only 5 mins so who knows. Looking forward to the NFL show I'm guessing the queen unfortunately dying put paid to it starting this week.

The season finally begins tonight!!!! So the Rams-Bills game tonight kicks off the new season and it should be a cracker of a game. I'm really looking forward to this season. I think the Bills will have another good season, and could go to the Superbowl. It will be interesting to see how the Bengals do after such a great season last year. There have been a lot of changes in the rosters over the summer so will be good to see how new players fit in and if they can make the impact the team hopes they do...Russell Wilson and the Broncos comes to mind. After Matt Ryan went to the Colts i'm hoping that Mariota can have a decent first season with the Falcons and that we can have a better season this year. It will be cool to hear what you all are looking forward to this season and what your predictions are for your team and the league as a whole. Who is going to surpise everyone like the Bengals last year, and who will not meet the expectations for the season 🙂

Just watched that Fyre doc on Netflix, Jason Bell was on right at the beginning. #notthatinyresting😁

Definitely, especially during a highlights show

Looks like a good watch, we can dream of a remake surely? 25th anniversary is huge. It needs to drop.

Documentary out in a couple of weeks celebrating the games 25th anniversary Hope to god there is a remaster/remake update around then.

So strange. Sometimes there are things that are so obvious that if you can release at a certain time, the social media side of life would lap it up. I suppose with a game release like this, regaredless of when it gets confirmed, people will positively react to it by the bucket loads.

No sign of Goldeneye yesterday at the Xbox show which caused massive disappointment and confusion. The game was also trending higher than Overwatch 2 which says it all really.

Not sure if you guy's ever played it, but Alpha Protocol to me was the best James Bond game (that wasn't a Bond game). If they made something like that I'd be quite happy 🙂 Though what they could do with today's tech and funding could be something special ^_^ Similarly the splinter cell games seem to have died off / gone quiet in recent years.

I remember the old N64 version and it was iconic! One of my friends older brother had an N64 and Goldeneye and we played it a bunch. The 4 player splitscreen multiplayer was just groundbreaking at the time. Fond memories of that game, we had certain rules like Oddjob was banned for use because of how small and hard to hit he was an unfair disadvantage. We sometimes had silly rules like Archives map, throwing knifes and proximity mines only. Pistols only etc, just weird setups for a laugh.

Xbox GoldenEye 007 Remaster Looks Closer Than Ever After Achievements are Spotted - IGN WWW.IGN.COM A GoldenEye 007 remaster on Xbox appears more and more likely as Microsoft now has the game's achievements listed on its official website.

Ahhh you're right, I forgot about Rare. This makes sense and it's probably what the license thing was about. Frankly, I'm very happy with this. I love the Switch don't get me wrong, but if a game I like is going to come out on a technologically better console, I would get it there. MS seems to be on a roll lately so I don't see this being forgotten just like that (I hope).

I saw a rumor on another forum, sorry it slipped my memory and I can't quote it at the moment, but it was rumored this was coming to Switch's N64 lineup for the subscription package... but then, somebody said it probably won't happen due to licensing issues. Is this "licensing issue" because Xbox have the rights to it? And I play on both but I would love to play this on Xbox instead. 😄 (for the record, I missed out because I never had an N64)

Looks like it might get an official release after all N64’s GoldenEye 007 May Be Coming To Xbox Soon WWW.FORBES.COM Well, this is a weird one. We’ve heard nothing about a remaster of GoldenEye 007 for a long while now, not since a remake was allegedly canceled for Xbox Live Arcade years ago. Reportedly that was due to...

Even Digital Foundry are covering it😂

Incredibly easy to get running and what a fine experience. Such a tragedy that this never made it to the market because of petty financial squabbles. If you press R1 on the controller, you can also have the classic visuals which is a nice touch. Not sure what happened with the Alec Trevelyan character model (maybe a placeholder) but everything else looks pretty spot on and nicely crafted.
