    If I was to splash out I'd go for the Index. I don't have a Facebook account and don't plan to until the day it's the only way to get my Soylent Green.

    I seem to remember us playing Trials on the PS4 for a while, it's a good laugh I seem to remember. Think I have them all, one on PS4 and the others on PC but I'll check. If enough are interested I'll join in👍

    The PS4 controller now works on Steam, in case that's any better.

    I think we said we'd do Bluemoon this Tuesday so I'll put that in the calendar. Next week's daily races are funny because there are two Gr.4 races, one at Monza and the other at Tokyo. Which we've just done ourselves😁 The third race is Gr.3 and Interlagos, so we'll go for that I imagine. Any requests, suggestions, let us know, I'll add to the calendar.

    FG has form for building our own machines so I will encourage that😁 My advice is to first decide what display you want, 1080p, 1440p or 4K. That will determine which GPU to go for. Personally I'd go for 1440p. It's the sweet spot between lovely graphics and high frames. There's some good GPUs that will give 1440 and all the fps, that won't destroy your wallet. Then we need to decide AMD or Intel. @Diddumswill be better suited for that advice as I'm Intel only.

    Battlefield 3 is free for a limited time on PC if you have Twitch Prime. BF3 has gotten a new lease of life, as DICE recently opened it up to modding, so worth a shout 🙂

    Happy new year all, I'm starting the year in good anarchist spirit and resolve to keep it that way. By anarchist spirit I mean that deeply human sentiment, which aims at the good of all, freedom and justice for all, solidarity and love among the people; which is not an exclusive characteristic only of self-declared anarchists, but inspires all people who have a generous heart and an open mind. ❤

    I have a key for Tropico 6 on PC. Happy new gaming 🙂

    I'm subscribed to 2000AD and occasionally I pick up digital comics. Other than that, not really, too many adverts annoy me. Well, any adverts at all annoys me. Many of these publications are funded this way and end up just being marketing tools. They lose what makes them special. I'm the same with gaming websites. I used to visit IGN daily 10 years ago, for example, but cannot remember the last time I went there. Thrse days it just feels like one giant advertisement. But my disappointment with magazines is nothing new. Go back to the late 80s. I used to buy White Dwarf when I was around 11 years old as it featured lots of great roleplaying articles from all games, but then it went in-house, they shut down sister magazine Warlock and focused exclusively on Games Workshop games in White Dwarf. Great if you only like Warhamner but pretty shit for everyone else. I'm rambling, sorry😁

    Have to get back on this it's a very well done game. I've seen @JsinOwl on PSN playing it but not many others. Haven't tried the update yet but I'd be up for giving it a go. Shame the Owl isn't here to give us his thoughts.

    Left 4 Dead's main attraction for me that it was free, they put it on there for free once many years ago for a couple of days but didn't advertise it. I think we may have discussed itr on here somewhere back in the day. But yeah this company have bad form and it may go free to play at some point, so probably not for me. I'll just hope the Warhammer game isn't shite like the usual crap that gets a games workshop skin.

    Agreed, if everyone's up to speed, from 8pm we can give everyone 5 or 6 laps to warm up then straight to qualifying. Much more likely to be able to fit another race in, plus this week's main races aren't particularly long. I'll aim to set up the lobby from 7.30pm though for those who need the extra practice.

    Ok, thanks all for your suggestions 😅 This week's races, start with the slower and finish with the faster. Race 1. Gr.4 Tokyo Expressway - East Inner Loop 9 laps Medium and Hard tyres only. Must use Hard at least once. Fuel 2x (this may change as I'll be testing today) Tyre wear 5x (as above but pitting will be required either way) Race 2. Gr.3 Red Bull Ring 5 laps Any tyres No tyre or fuel usage i.e. no pitstops

    I do, I'll pop the steam key over to you in the morning 👍

    So, Red Bull Ring and possibly Tokyo for this Tuesday I'd say, I'll have a tinker with fuel and tyres before posting the event...so still time for a request.

    Rust's on sale right now for £20, I have it and a few others do too I think.
  23. phil bottle
    So, it appears the daily races in Gran Turismo for next for next week have been announced. Gr.3 Red Bull Ring track, 5 laps, hard tyres no wear or fuel use. Gr.4 Nurburring 24H track, 2 laps hard tyres, fuel 2x, tyres 5x. Might stick with the Gr.3 with some modification but I'm open to suggestions still for the Gr.4.

    I'm going to set up the calendar for Tuesdsy this evening, so let me know if theres any requests. Last week was great, 10 people on at once, though I think it was 9 in the races. I picked up the fastest lap timr in the Gr.3 race thanks to us turning off BOP and my car being fast...but braked too late on one too many occasions to have any chance of winning the race. But yes, new calendar event for Tuesday will go up around 6pm this evening, let me know. Will stick to Gr.3 and Gr.4.
