  1. I've read Lord of the Rings a couple of times, first as a youngster and then when I heard they were making the film I re-read it in preparation. Better second time around. Other than that I like to read: 'In Dubious Battle' by John Steinbeck at least once a year. I love the American writers of that generation but John's humanity puts him head and shoulders above the rest, at least for me. 'Nausea' by JP Sartre, have to re-read it everyone once in a while, always get something different from it. I was also stuck on holiday once with only one book: "Bill the Galactic Hero" by Harry Harrison which I read twice by default.
  2. Crazy Welsh bastards It's a beautiful part of the country too, not far from Betsw-y-Coed, which is also worth a visit
  3. Quality post, completely agree and learned something new, hats off to you sir
  4. One of my top five favourite websites: http://www.logicalincrements.com/
  5. I'm a little bored right now. I played the Mod for quite a long time, which, while buggy, had so much more going on than the standalone. I miss getting chased in my offroad by psychopaths in helicopters. Vehicles and somewhere to store gear need to be included otherwise it's just team deathmatch. There's also been an invasion of scripters I hear... Time will rectify that I hope.
  6. Back on topic I completely agree. I played Betas for BF Hardline and Titanfall and won't be buying either unless it a mega sale. Titanfall plays better IMO. It's all a bit too cynical for me but I suppose making video games is an expensive business I play BF4 occasionally even now but I'm still getting shot round corners. Wish they'd spend the money and time on getting it right.
  7. Present day Brazil
  8. I've been saving my pennies for this, bring it on! Yet more games will be purchased that I may never ever find the time to play
  9. What would reckon about this?
  10. ^ I installed it just after it came out and played 30 minutes, waiting for something like this
  11. So it came up in conversation that Rich hasn't seen these two comedy gems starring the late Rik Mayall: http://www.channel4.com/programmes/comic-strip-presents/4od#3106467 http://www.channel4.com/programmes/comic-strip-presents/4od#3107215
  12. Enhanced version and carry over from Xbox360 to PC does have me drooling a little. If they get it right I'll be a happy bunny.
  13. I've got ME3 on PC but I've never tried the multiplayer, is it fun? On single player I'm usually behind barriers and popping my head out when I want to use my weapons or biotics so I'm not sure how that'd translate online. Plus are the maps any good? I suppose I should stop being lazy and check it for myself
  14. I played on PC last night, it was better than I though it'd be...and yeah plays better than BF4 you're damn right...bastards
  15. Strange buy for me, how many midfielders does that team need? Maybe he'll turn out to be the Spanish, sorry Catalan, Joe Cole
  16. The Beta just landed in my Origin, might give it ago later tonight, I'm a bit down on Dice at the moment so we'll see how it goes...
  17. I liked Cable Guy a lot, a bit darker...but Liar Liar is a one of the funiest films ever, from start to finish pure comedy gold.
  18. Damn cabbies...being a cyclist I could tell you a few stories...regretably my fellow cyclists aint much better...no-one respects no-one on the queen's highway. Since we're talking of things Uber I'm reminded me of this:
  19. Carrey will carry the movie, I know lot of people who can't stand him but he is pure class as far as I'm concerned Daniels is weak but a good foil for Carrey..
  20. I always wondered what happened to his form, he was a quality player when he was at his peak.
  21. Yep, I'm also sadly expecting less impressive graphics and frame rate issues when it's finally released on PC.
  22. ^This, Flash always cracked me up. "Hey nursey, am I pleased to see you or is that a canoe in my pocket?" I'm usually immune to famous deaths but I was a bit choked when I heard about Rik passing away. He was truly unique, a comedy genius in my opinion, and made me piss my pants for decades.
  23. Yep, hope so too. They raised over 45 million dollars already so that should tide them over for a bit (massive fucking understatement lol)
  24. I backed this crowd funded game a little while ago. First module has finally be released. I may do my own vid but until then here's Frankie:
