  1. Yeh I agree with that about Harry Potter - lots of feels in the last one for sure
  2. Would you really put Star Wars or Harry Potter up there? I really enjoy both franchises and their respective other content etc but in terms of actual 'films' I think both franchises are mediocre at best - I think the stories are interesting enough but the big win is the character buy in. And I don't mean execution, I mean we can all relate/empathise with Luke or Harry. However, the execution of those characters is rather clunky and hap hazard. If you think about Gladiator on your list, it is excellent on so many levels. Russel Crowe is stoic and firm, Joaqiun Phoenix is horrid and cruel. The story is compelling yet relatable. The sets are true to the time period and not over done. The costumes look realistic, the fighting is well choreographed and have great flow.....That is a high quality film with very few things to really criticise. Star Wars on the other hand starts with the shittiest hallway scene known to man (as proven by the do over in Rogue One) 😀 In fact, compare the opening scene in Gladiator to that of A New Hope or Scorcers Stone......wow.
  3. Real Steel makes me cry, every single time
  4. Hateful 8 is good but I think it’s a bit cheesy in some places. I’ve never seen black hawk down
  5. For me it’s: 1. Aliens 2. The 13th Warrior 3. Django Unchained tell me yours!
  6. Ever since San Andreas or Liberty City, I just feel like these games have got 'too big'...does that make sense? Obviously some of them in the past have just had poor story lines etc but for me GTA5 was just fucking massive and I really struggled to follow the story line of the three characters. Like is it a sandbox or not etc. They always make a good game to be fair but for me I just can't get behind the hype anymore because it just feels like the game has to be huge with lots of complicated mechanics now to warrant the dev time. I'm an old man, I like my old fashioned top down original GTA where the most pressing thing I had to do in a game was run over the Hari Krishna's at the start of each level 😀
  7. I always feel like the cinematics are way better than the actual games for Warhammer. They always feel a bit clunky. However, I do feel like they pay off the hardcore lore nerds well so that's a plus.
  8. I think it’s a refreshing take on those movies and Snyder really hit the mark with the feeling of doom and gloom. Great casting too.
  9. So Blizzard dropped this cinematic a couple of weeks ago and i've watched it so many times. It's beautiful. You don't even need to know the story or the characters to feel the emotions. I think this might be my return to retail WoW because it just seems like they're trying to tell stories again rather than just 'look at this cool shit'. I'm pretty done with classic to be honest because playing the same game from back in 2009 just doesn't feel like a good use of my finite gaming time. Give this a watch and let me know what you think World of Warcraft The War Within
  10. Assistant Headteacher for Raising Standards 🙂 I try to help kids be better people....
  11. Last night was great. Jumped in to a party with 4 lads and we managed to win almost every game. the highlight was @Luseth running around with a knife destroying teams and winning us the day on several occasions. domination on rust can get in the bin but it was good craiq in the end as we won 200-199!
  12. Apparently its got that old Aliens PS2 game feel to it but you get to pick your load outs etc....
  13. Oh @Luseth you are too kind! Wiping out parties is never part of the fun and it was your first times so it's hard to navigate the options you have in front of you. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and watching you all slowly fall into your characters was great to see. You should all be very proud of yourselves. @Greboth @TheMuggySpud @Lurchzy
  14. Apparently Fireteam Elite is supposed to be good but the servers died off quick or something?
  15. Is Shoot house the new Nuketown? Kind of feels like it. I wish we could get some of the Original MW3 maps back too, like good ones. Not Strike or that other massive downtown one we had in MW2.
  16. Has anyone actually played the campaign yet? Reddit aren't happy about anything! Especially COD.
  17. Face to face sessions are always best and they can run a lot longer too. We could probably get away with running monthly or 3 weekly sessions on a Sunday night maybe?
  18. I’m glad you enjoyed it and I’m sure we could arrange some more games in the future - we waste enough time playing call of duty! as for dice, they are addictive! I got a dice advent calendar from Dakota Irish last year and it was awesome!
  19. Has the beta has started already?
  20. Why is this in here??? lol
  21. Hi gang, can anyone recommend a good TV bracket? I want to mount my TV ago my chimney breast but I want the bracket to be multi-directional. So be able to pull the tv out into the room, turn it left and right and tilt it up and down. I think my TV is 50” Any suggestions?
  22. The description and reviews say 23 hour battery?
  23. The A30’s are actually wireless but they have three options, wired, Bluetooth 2.4 and 5.2
