Sheffield vs Sunderland
 
Also, looking at the schedule, there are 3 or 4 games back to back today
 
Why do they always have little kids with them on the field, when they come out, seems weird. Who's crotch goblin is this, and why are they on camera?
 
Also, DAMN there are some bad haircuts in the stands, one dude looked like that cat with the lime on its head, but it was his actual hair. I need to find that pic now

Sheffield and Sunderland were playing for a place in the top division, the Premier League, and against all odds it was Sunderland that came out on top.
 
The manager of Sheffield, a chap by the name of Wilder, is universally disliked so this result made more than just Sunderland fans happy 🤪
 
Today is the last day of the season and other than some cup finals, the next big football competition will next month, the Club World Cup, with many of the games being played in the US and Mexico I think. 

I just wanted to share this, here, it doesn't have anything to do with Football, but I feel like it could
 

How's @phil bottle's head doing me thinks? 😅
 
Nervous final all round but like James said above, scored when it mattered! I also think its the best thing that could happen to Man Utd. They need to properly reset and rebuild, a trophy would'bve just meant we spent all year round talking about how crap they are again based on people's expectations of the Fergie years.

Russian Warship can go fuck itself!
 
 

I played the absolute shit out of this game when I had it on 3DO
 
 
 
This isn't the intro, but I think the first half might be the best score of any game I have ever played. Every time I hear it I mentally see the ruined city, the rain, and feel the loneliness that was the starting area of ODST

Yea, when Paul Tassi says its over, then its over, wow.
 
Dude was (is?) a huge D1 & 2 fan.
 
 
 

You've just made me think of an awesome thread. I loved the opening sequence to R4, the song and video back then was legendary!

Strange, I've played at 1440p max settings on my ancient 1080ti and not blurry for me. 
A lot of the reviews seem to be Russians angry they've been removed from the game. Fuck em 🙂

Not sure whats going on with my library, I had all the stalker games at one point, but currently its only showing Clear Skies

Some music in the 'Listening Now To' thread by @Sennex, got me immediately thinking, what are some of our favourite all time opening intro video sequences in a video game.
 
I'll start! For some reason, I remember back in the day when I got hold of a copy of Ridge Racer 4, I was excited more than normal. For an arcade game, back then it felt like it was hitting a new era, and the opening sequence with the graphics back then I recall blew my mind. I loved the song and everything about it. Enjoy and looking forward to seeing what else others can find and share!
 
 

This is epic
 

Recently came across Band-maid and quite enjoying it.
 
 

'The vibes have never been worse' Bungie's morale is reportedly in 'free fall' following its art theft fiasco | PC Gamer
WWW.PCGAMER.COM Devs also claim they have been often ignored by the studio's "good old boy" leadership regarding the overarching design.  
I still can't believe Bungie are in this position compared to where they were a decade ago. I always knew leaving Activision would be a monumental mistake when they had it so comfortable there. They were cocky dickheads after the breakaway and were instantly barely sustainable going it alone with all the operating and future development costs to self-fund. Sony were always going to be the final nail in the coffin for them after the shamefully embarrassing takeover especially as their only thought is live service slop and milking dead horses. 
 
If only they turned their attentions to Destiny 3. They will sadly join BioWare. 343 aren't too far behind either as Halo is on its last legs two years into a ten year plan. Greed has crippled so many iconic studios. 

Lots of turnover at Bungie in recent years. Lots of very good trusted people have left. I think they've got caught up in the world of social media too much now and the scales have tipped so much that they didn't realise they were just like most other companies under the hood but they wanted to portray they weren't as such. No one is ever that squeaky clean in this game, we've all seen it too much over and over.
 
That being said, Marathon just won't have that pull that Destiny or Halo will, you can already feel that looking at the gameplay. Id hate it to be another Concord but something tells me it has a chance.
 
Separately though, this won't make me stop going back to Destiny. Not played that in nearly 2 years I feel, but that has a world that has great content still and they are making changes that actually supports many of the casual players we all are now. Buying expansions is better in that game than many others where we all buy battlepasses.

Another huge PR blow as Paul Tassi is seen as a huge Bungie supporter and optimist of games like this
It’s Just Over For ‘Marathon’
WWW.FORBES.COM Marathon has always been teetered on the edge of future failure, but now that seems set in stone after recent events.  

Brentford vs Fulham is on now for me. 1-1 at 22 minutes? wow

My wife wants plaid grass now
 
also she wants a chart to keep track of all these damn teams and leagues and what not

Yea, this game is a hard pass for me. Bungie rode the fans love from Halo into Destiny, only to start monetizing everything in D2, and I am just done with them.
