GTA 5 is awesome on PC. But yeah, these things are sent to test us. Send us your problem and PC specs, maybe we* can help. *Saying 'we' I actually mean dave and bart

So, three English teams through the Europa quarter finals. Very happy with the Spurs performance last night. The Italians are third in Serie A and we made them look wank. Got the Boche next, Dortmund are a VERY good team so I look forward to a good contest. Scoucers v Scallys will also be one to watch. National burglary figures will take a hit that night Our home game is on Paddy's day so that will be very very messy indeed

Yes, yes, oh god yes. And various other exclamations along the lines of the "I'll have what she's having" variety/ Yes Rob this looks awesome. Only a matter of time before Fallout goes MMO. I wish.

New game with a different attitude. Being sold to me by a mate at work as the polar opposite of twitchy shoot em ups. We'll see... http://kotaku.com/superhot-the-kotaku-review-1760902123

Yep, thus looks pretty ace. I love F Zero, Wipeout etc which all remind me of this game, and I'm sure this will be a blast!

I tried to jump on a couple of times yesterday evening but the servers seemed to be down. Was getting a strange message about my version of the game being out of date.

Joined Rich for some 2 v 2 play last night. We were woeful. Rob joined us for some 3 v 3. We ruled (until the last game where it all fell apart).

I'll copy and paste from IGN. The gist (for me at least) is that the DLC is going to be expensive without a season pass, plus the season pass goes up in price from March1. Bethesda announced its first three add-ons coming to Fallout 4: Automatron, Wasteland Workshop, and Far Harbor. The first DLC released will be Automatron. "The mysterious Mechanist has unleashed a horde of evil robots into the Commonwealth, including the devious Robobrain," reads the description. You will be hunting them down and creating your own robots, choosing from hundreds of mods. Automatron will be available in March for £8 / $10. Wasteland Workshop DLC Wasteland Workshop will allow you to create and set traps for the inhabitants of the Wasteland, "from raiders to Deathclaws." You can tame the creatures you capture, or even have them face off against each other. Wasteland Workshop is coming in April, and will cost £4 / $5. Far Harbor is the largest of the three announcements, and will be coming out in May for £20 / $25. It features a new case from Valentine's Detective Agency, and will have "the largest landmass for an add-on" Bethesda has ever created. There will be new quests, settlements, creatures, and dungeons, as well as brand new higher-level equipment. Far Harbor DLC Bethesda also announced more than £45 worth of new Fallout content will be coming in 2016. However, the price of the Season Pass been increased to account for the expanded DLC plan. Starting from March 1, it will go up from £25 / $30 to £40 / $50. If you've already purchased the Season Pass by that time at the lower price, you will get the additional content at no extra cost.

Guy from work recommended this to me today

Not sure if any of our north american brethren are aware of Poison Idea. Kind of hardcore punk, they've been around since the 80s. I likes me punk, so long as its played from the heart and not about the pose. I always make sure I go and see Poison Idea when they come to the UK, great live band, with heart and soul. Playing on Easter Sunday, can't wait!

I'll be around, I'll do some more research in the meantime

Unlike Microsoft, Sony didn't bother making this a standard feature. However, yes it can be done and is relatively straightforward, but will jeopardise your warranty.

By the way, gimme as shout when you get around to doing this, I'd like to look over your shoulder.

Size matters as the HDDs for PS4 resemble laptop drives. Copy and paste job as follows: The 1TB Seagate Laptop Thin SSHD is a hybrid 5400RPM SSD/HDD drive and 9mm thick. You can pick it up for around £65 (available from Amazon), making it a great affordable option. Also, the WD Blue WD10SPCX, another 1TB 5400RPM hard drive, but this one is just 7mm thick. This WD drive is now around the £50 mark (available here from Amazon), making it the more affordable alternative for the Seagate. You can use SSD drives as well, but for anything above a PS4-matching 500GB you’re looking at spending some serious dollah.

I watched Jason Statham in Homefront recently, double oh dear from me Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Not me, at least not yet. To be honest I was going to wait for the summer until I heard that they've made it more in depth and difficult. Challenge accepted. I'll probably until Easter before picking it up.

The fact the one of the guys was tweeting he still expects it to be a great game will be something to cling to, but yeah, I know what you mean...

Mass Effect was one of the first games I ever bought for my 360. The first was the best for me, introducing the characters, universe, factions and intrigue....but I'm really really looking forward to the new one.

Ha, I thought it was FA Cup games, wrong weekend entirely. It was my mum's 65th birthday this weekend, remembered just in time

I came across a piece by BBC on Star Citizen this morning. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-35555086

I'm going to have to manage my life very carefully when this comes out, a mate of mine is saving to buy a PC just so he can play it. Rome 2 was a mess when it launched, let's hope for no repeat of that debacle.

Think I'll stick with Arma 3 Desolation for the time being. They added Taviana this weekend, which is my all time favourite DayZ map.

The attention to detail is commendable and it looks like they are putting in a lot of effort to that end. Didn't realise that they've been working on this since 2012. One to watch definitely.

It's had some awesome reviews, just bugs letting it down. I'll definitely be getting this but I'll wait until it's patched.

New DLC out for this today, I'm downloading right now. Had a lot of fun with this game. They have also provided an enhanced edition and made it free to everyone who already had the game. https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2016/02/09/dying-light-raises-expansion-and-enhanced-edition/ "Today’s a big day for Dying Light [official site], with three new releases coming to the open-world, zombie-slaying, parkouring FPS. I’ll try to explain this slowly, because it’s all enough that there’s a diagram explaining it all. So! Today brings The Following, the paid expansion which adds a new area and vehicles to Dying Light. Today also brings a free update with many tweaks and improvements to Dying Light. Lastly, today brings Dying Light: The Following – Enhanced Edition, which combines the base game (and that patch, natch) and The Following plus all its other DLC. Get it? Got it? Good. All of those things are now live. Patch 1.10.0 include better AI, new weapons, a new skill tree, a higher difficulty mode, more parkour animations, and plenty of other stuff listed in the patch notes. Or this video looks at its new ‘Legendary’ skill tree, this one goes over ‘bounty’ challenges, and this one is about Nightmare difficulty. Again, that’s free for everyone who has Dying Light. As for The Following, it ventures beyond the city and out into the countryside to investigate a cult. Along with a new story and quests and weapons and things, it adds dirt buggies to zoom around and run over zombies. Adam says he’s playing it and will tell us Wot He Thinks in a day or two."
