This is probably the only man I'll let get really close to me and look deep into my eyes..... Yeah, he's my optician! 🤣🤣 really. Welcome aboard fella 👍

A great idea Matt - we did try it briefly before but as always its about getting enough people behind the idea. Its likely it would work best if its maybe 1 game a month and as you say, something cheap or free to get involved in that we can all focus efforts on to have a good chinwag over it on here. We also did FG Film Club like this but I noticed doing it weekly was a hard slog (although would love to see that back too). Loving the ideas of FG scores. I've never found a way yet to record them in a smarter way but that doesn't stop us sticking them on posts like Phil has mentioned. I think if you can have a think of some certain games that could be potentials to maximise the amount of people that could get involved in this, lets then see if we can make it work for the upcoming month perhaps! Nice one Matt! @Luseth

Welcome to FG! Hopefully see you online at some point!

Welcome to FG. This may give a few of us a reason to fire up the game again.

Welcome mate, we've got a good mixture of ages on here, mostly 30s and 40s and that lovely incorrigible bastard Dave who I think must be nearly due his telegram from the King 🤪

Hi, was recommended to this site by "Plumbers Crack". I'm a 50 year young gamer, been gaming probably 40+ years. Main console now is PS5, sometimes on PC too. Still wasting time on Destiny 2. Anyone wanna shoot some aliens in the face, send me a DM/friend request

Did not see this coming and out now apparently...

I don't know if this will get any interest as most people are here for multiplayer gaming but thought I'd give it a try. I was thinking it might be a nice idea to try doing a game club similar to how a book club runs, we all vote on a relatively inexpensive single player story driven game to buy and play through over the course of a couple of months and then jump on chat one night a week or even discuss it in here and how we are getting on with it, what we are enjoying and not enjoying etc etc, talk about the writing, the story etc. Would that peak anyone's interest? With games such as Baldurs gate down the road where you can approach things so differently it could be good fun I thought. Anyway, yeah will see if there's any interest first 🙂

A nice idea, could be up for it depending on games chosen and time available. Maybe a part of the conversation could be to agree an FG review score for the game out of 10 or 100 whatever...and post it on the forum.

Would never have expected this. £36 for the trilogy though is quite heavy especially when you could pick up the collection for £5 back in 2014 on PC. Then there's the extensive modding scene which has proven to be essential and so beneficial over the years. I think £6.99 each would've been a far better pricepoint and you can run these games literally on a toaster.

Hey @oldskoolrave ! Great to see a new face as always! @Plumbers Crack is the 3 wise men all wrapped up in one here...with the odd Dad joke somewhere involved to keep us all sane. So if he's recommended you, then you must be golden 😉 Yep, Matt is right, Destiny 2 was many peoples game here for years. Its dropped off the last 12 months considerably but I know I am planning on making a big push to ask everyone to get back into it come June for the The Final Shape. Its such a fun game to play and help each other. So much stuff to do and lots we can talk and have a laugh with. Fingers crossed I'll be seeing you online with FGers taking on whatever Dungeon, Raids and Missions we have to try and get done 😄 You play anything else other than Destiny? We also group up on other stuff too just in case you like different things alongside D2. Hope to see you involved on here, a great place - the best place, to call Home on the interwebz (thats fact, not just my humble opinion 😄 )

Definitely like this idea!

Nice to meet you man. I'm not a destiny player, but any friend of Plumber is a friend of ours! Welcome to the family.

Cool, I'm on most evenings. Not great at it but always have a laugh 🙂

Oh Lee is going to love you, he's eager to get Destiny nights up and running again. With the dlc coming to ps plus I was going to redownload it so might see you on there soon 🙂

They certainly enjoy milking DLC - Snowrunner has 4 season passes at £22 each whereas the original Mudrunner had 3 free map DLC's and an expansion that cost £9. Snowrunner is basically a shell and if you wanted the entire experience it would've cost about £105 and even then large parts of the game remain neglected or unfinished. Expeditions seems really watered-down especially coming off the back of Snowrunner and even the OG Mudrunner so it'll probably cost another £90 on top to get all the upcoming DLC's if not even more.

I think it’s a great idea! I have always wanted to be involved in something like that but have either never found the right group or never found the time or organise it myself. I think we would have to work out some logistics etc but definitely put me down as interested. I would suggest one way to do would be to try and pick games that are on a subscription service (Gamepass, ps plus, EA play etc), that way the majority of people can play the game for free using the service they are already paying for, therefore not spending money just for this. I know not everyone will subscribe to these services and if not we can still try to find a cheap game on the service? One potential idea is recording a review/discussion video. It will be difficult to arrange but if we could find a time where everyone (or the majority) could spare an hour or so to join up on discord and record a conversation reviewing and discussing the game. To upload to a Forever Gaming YouTube channel? Just a thought.
