  1. Happy birthday Rib, hope all is good with you and your family. πŸ»πŸ»πŸ»πŸ°πŸ°πŸ°πŸΎπŸΎπŸΎπŸŽ‚πŸŽ‚πŸŽ‚πŸ•πŸ•πŸ•
  2. I started to watch Super GT videos to help me, here's one he did on tonight's first race.
  3. Football is pretty interesting right now. Every few weeks its suddenly a different team are going to win the league. I hated the days when it was dominated by a few big spenders, there's still half a dozen teams who could win the league this year at this stage and that makes it much more enjoyable. Liverpool will win of course unless some of the other contenders can manage to get a result against them. Spurs came close, but for some poor finishing.... and I'm a bit frustrated that we're not trying to dominate teams like we can when we decide to. But Wet Spam lost last night, so there's always that to keep me happy😁
  4. @slamminbones my car recommendations: Gr.4 Audi TT Cup It tends to excel at most circuits. Also, the Dodge Viper is a nimble car for today's race. Gr.3 BMW M3 Nissan GTR Porsche 911 Mercedes Toyota Supra Most of the Gr.3 cars are well balanced so it's more a preference on whether you want big and powerful or something more nimble around corners.
  5. My dream is to one day be able to add Fallout 4 to this thread. Over 100 hours in and the horizon is as distant as ever.
  6. I started Horizon and got quite far but could never shake the feeling it should be played with a mouse and keyboard. If you ever see it cheap, let me know! Great idea for a thread by the way as I think most ppl usually put these in PPRs. Surprised no-one thought of this before😁
  7. Inspiration on how not to treat your body after you finish a career in sportπŸ™ƒ Razor used to turn down Cantona's collar every time he played Utd. I love that kind of thing. He also played for Spurs, as well as Liverpool, Millwall and that shit down Stratford. He's a great character and that's a great message for FG gaymers, nice one JordieπŸ‘
  8. I have a couple of free games going if anyone wants them. Overcooked 2 Tabletop Playground
  9. Yes son, daddy's taking you all to the Seaside.
  10. Luke being a badass Jedi, fucking everyone up, is all they ever needed to do. That's how the films should've been. Even I got the feels.

  14. We'll go with Choice 2. The rally stages need a lot of practice, maybe we can do one further down the line.
  15. I heard Warzone is borked with a pretty nasty exploit. If I have time I'll check but will see.
  16. Ok, so here's the choice. As we said last week it might be nice to do a rally we can do that possibly, but if not popular of people don't have rally cars there's a Gr.3 instead. Choice 1 Colorado Springs Rally Gr.B or X Choice 2 Circuit de Sainte Croix - C Gr.3 Let's try and decide today so we can practice in advance. Once decided I'll set the laps, tyres etc.
  17. I'll keep my eyes open for any news on this, could be huge πŸ™‚
  18. @GazzaGarrattproduced some very fast qualifying laps for Willow Springs but was unable to transfer that into a 13 lap race. @Grebothran away with it and I managed a second place despite a couple of wobbles. At Fuji it was @JBR-Kiwi from the start with @Grebothmaking some uncharacteristic errors and @GazzaGarrattmaking some characteristic errors. @Mikepjbell took advantage of slipstream down the long straight and left me trailing. Special mention to @Misneach_ getting better every race and giving Lee a run for his money at Willow πŸ™‚ Great racing.πŸ₯° I will suggest a track for next week shortly and if anyone has any preferences I'm happy to change to whatever. For the second race, we will find out next week's GT daily races on Saturday or Sunday.
  19. To be honest, I've played around 20 hours and I've only done the first main mission with Jackie. Since then all I've done is side missions and explore the city. I might wait for bugs to be fixed before I progress the main story, will see. I've not suffered any issues or crashes myself, and I've been having a blast. I think it's a really good game, though not as much of an RPG as I'd hoped. But then I found Fallout 76 to be okay, so what do I know😁
  20. GOG are going down the shitter of my estimations. I thought they were supposed to be one of the better companies but I hear today they're not releasing a game because of a joke about the Chinese government. Cowards.
  21. That's cool, we prefer text over links in general πŸ™‚ Cheers for that, hadn't seen it but I'll check it todayπŸ‘
  22. That's a great write up and totally agree with the last bit too. Also, I'm on 1440p with 59-64 fps on a mix of high and ultra. It looks great but hoping optimizations allow for higher frames in future.
  23. What happens when you let short term profit override your common sense. Personally I don't care about CDPR or how they're remembered, I don't care about corporations, I despise them. What I do care about is the people who made the game and the people who spent their hard earned money buying a dud. There's no excuse for any of it. The guys who spent years and years of hard graft and non stop crunch making it must be fucking destroyed by all of this. These people have no say over when the game is released and their work is being trashed because it was not released when it was ready. If Rockstar can do RDR2 on base consoles and make it look beautiful, then this could have been achieved for CPunk, they could have simply delayed the release. As an artist I would want my art to be presented in the best possible way...and they have been let down by their bosses. At the same time it astounds me that the workers haven't the nous to collectively organise and do something about it themselves. As for the early access thing, take a look at Star CitizenπŸ™‚
  24. Doesn't look like anyone can make tonight, judging by the calendar. If it's just two people we can rearrange, as I was having to juggle a few things to make it myself this week (covid tier 3 in london from tomorrow).
