    Last night was tense but we made it! Started off well for the first 15 but then Denmark really pressed and began to dominate in midfield. They deservedly took the lead but luckily we managed to get back into the game after getting behind them a couple of times out of nothing. We got a good foothold on the game after the break but couldn't quite carve out anything. I was a bit surprised that we didn't make many changes especially with Phillips and Sterling looking shattered however Denmark looked collectively exhausted so we left these key players on and it paid off. Penalty looked soft but one angle only shown once actually showed him clearly clipped from behind so it likely was a pen. Kane was fortunate on the rebound though and it was the worst penalty he's ever taken no doubt! Sunday will be very tough especially as they've had an extra days rest but they are beatable. We'll need to score first and do more in front of goal than what Spain did. I would start Sancho over Saka for the only change.

  4. So things are getting relaxed in the UK on July 19th with even face masks scrapped as a mandatory requirement however the health secretary expects there to be 100,000 cases a day come August!?

    Italy got absolutely outplayed last night but still progressed to the final! Spain really stepped it up and looked almost 2012-like with a vintage performance but they couldn't find that second goal after doing very well to get back into the game. Morata went from hero to villain and everyone pretty much knew he was gonna miss the penalty! Italy certainly aren't as strong or dominant that many feared but they still look incredibly hard to break down. Whoever gets through to the final must score first really.
  6. I've heard good stuff about this game - it's basically like Rainbow 6, SWAT with an Arma feel plus it has co-op and PVP. It's currently in early access but the developers are making good progress apparently and so far it's been very smooth sailing. There seems to be some good maps to play on plus you can set things like time of day too. GROUND BRANCH on Steam STORE.STEAMPOWERED.COM From one of the developers behind the original Rainbow Six® and Ghost Recon® games, comes a thinking-man's first-person shooter featuring in-depth character and weapon customization. Take your time. Think...
  7. The PS5 interface ins't much better either. It's probably not too bad for Sony standards considering how clunky, outdated and unresponsive the PS4 one was but it's nuts how companies like this cannot get it right.
  8. Microsoft have really struggled with their UI since the Xbox One - they seem to like bloat rather than simplicity and functionality. I don't know why companies keep things simple than trying to convince their users they have some sort of state of the art supercomputer with limitless functions. 360 was clean, simple and very user friendly. The Series X doesn't seem as bad as the vanilla XB1 though but I can't believe Microsoft struggle so much with this aspect as evidenced by the Windows Store also.
  9. It's a very strange and cheap appointment however it could work to a degree but I wouldn't expect any significant success anytime soon. According to my friend at BT, it was a rather convenient and knee-jerk appointment and they were not willing to let it go into July which ruled out Martinez. Tottenham's shortlist choices and the available managers was absolutely diabolical though and I sense desperation which likely rubbed-off on a few front runner choices. It doesn't appear there will be significant resources either and with Kane likely to depart, it's a task right from the off.
  10. Millionaire YouTuber's scamming kids once again - it's the usual suspects of scumbags with Faze Clan at the fore Scam the Kids: The ‘Save the Kids’ crypto scandal involving several UK YouTubers is a painful reminder of the volatility of cryptocurrency and the dangers of trusting influencers - opinion - Esports News UK ESPORTS-NEWS.CO.UK Let's not be so quick to forgive and forget our favourite influencers fibs or fraudulent behaviour, argues Esports News UK editor Dom Sacco in this opinion Anyone that views these influencer e-celeb morons as credible in the slightest is a fucking idiot that deserves to be burned. As per usual, YouTube probably wont do anything even though they have concrete policies in place where external behaviour can lead to platform punishment. It'll probably fizzle out and be gone and forgotten in a couple of weeks are per usual until the next scam but I hope the authorities do take some proper investigative action here and issue the appropriate punishments because it's pretty serious underneath. It really is amazing what filth like this can get away with in the internet world.

    F.E.A.R

    Been playing the Extraction Point expansion last couple of days and just finished it in slightly over 4 hours which is about half the length of the main game. It was an absolutely amazing experience and way more tense and terrifying than the base game. The levels were more varied too and there's even a subway one with echoes to the original Max Payne. These days were usually getting shitty DLC consisting of bonus missions and crappy cosmetics to extort more money from the user at launch. Back then there were proper post-release content made from the ground p to compliment the base game and Extraction Point is no exception as an excellent addition. I will try the final Perseus Mandate in the next few days to round off the whole package.

  13. I think they are making or intending to produce a new Dragon Age and Mass Effect game but the problem seems to be the shit show at the studio as every week a key member leaves and each month a senior manager departs. I don't know how they expect to produce anything with such upheaval and with such a high turnaround of staff. I can't see BioWare ever reaching the heights they once held or even making a good game again. BioWare by name but not by nature really and it's pretty crazy they still exist.
  14. No sign of Dragon Age 4 anytime soon and people are pissed especially when they were indicating it was in development a year and a half ago. To soften the blow, they've released some concept art which is a waste of time. The fact we're not even getting an in-game teaser or any information related to the story suggests this game doesn't exist just like Elder Scrolls 6. I hope this isn't a new trend where developers of long-term projects start announcing games that don't even exist or aren't being developed. We have to wait long enough as it is for games like. This week we already heard Elder Scrolls VI 3 years after its announcement is still in the design phase so we wont see that until 2026 and now DA4 which has been mooted since 2019 from official sources may still be 3-4 years away.

    4-0! What a second half display and getting that second goal so early really helped! So dominated and composed plus we had no issues with yellows. Very comfortable evening in the end and a brilliant performance overall. Roll on the semi final against Denmark!

    Great start by England going in 1-0 at the break but some nervy moments. Kyle Walker has been caught out 3 times and is struggling with positioning and working with the designated right wing player at that momement. We are looking comfortable on the ball but I wish we used possession a bit more effectively. Need that second goal badly and don't want a repeat of Croatia. Ukraine have it in them to easily grab a goal out of nothing. Phillips is awfully quiet today and Luke Shaw needs to remember he has a right foot. Sancho has impressed.

    Czech Rep 1-2 Denmark Hard-fought win for Denmark against a Czech side that saw a lot of the ball but just didn't carve out enough opportunities. Didn't think much of the Danes and the overall pace of the game was rather slow but they can definitely take their chances. Very impressive run from the Czech's though and some names that will certainly catch club's attentions.

    They look an absolute force all over the pitch but it will be interesting to see how they fare without Spinazzola. Italy have always been a hard team to break down but now they have an attacking philosophy on top thanks to Mancini so opponents will have a very difficult time breaking them down. Funnily enough, Wales and Austria came the closest😂 Spain must not fall behind at any cost in the semi else they will seriously struggle to find a way back. Italy have only conceded 2 in 14 games or summat (both consolations) so it's hard to judge how they would perform when a goal down but that's the only chance teams will have of getting a foothold against them if Italy are the ones that have to get back into the game rather than vice-versa. Belgium fall short again and despite another unkind side of the draw for them, it's another failed attempt will a very strong team. Their last shot will be the world cup and then wholesale defensive changes will have to be made and I'm not sure they even have that in the locker going forward.

    F.E.A.R

    Finished the game in 8 or so hours and it was a remarkable experience! The tension really ramped up after a couple and remained throughout. I didn't find it outright scary but you were always on your toes with the overall atmosphere and not knowing what you were walking into next. There were plenty of challenging combat encounters and I really enjoyed the gunplay and general mechanics. They really don't make shooters like this any more. If this was a modern game it would be x-ray vision, checkpoints every 30 seconds, enemies with vision bars, grenade indicators, minimap and weapon skins. This is definitely up there with the likes of Half Life 2. I now have TWO expansions to sift through - not shitty 30 minute DLC's like we see today, these are proper expansions old-school that you used to get on separate discs! I'm still in two minds about getting F.E.A.R 2 as I've heard it's nowhere near as good or unique.

    Spain were fortunate and some rotten luck for Switzerland throughout the game but their penalties today were England-esque😎 That was never a red and I wouldn't have even give it as a foul. Spain's finishing was exceptionally weak and they are another team that's possibly there for the taking.
  21. Strong rumour worth keeping an eye on New Dead Space is a remake in the style of Resident Evil 2 claims latest rumour METRO.CO.UK Everyone seems convinced EA is working on a new Dead Space game but there’s disagreement over whether it’s a reboot or a remake.
  22. Bloody ridiculous that the deal is being struck in the middle of the Euros when there's already questions being asked about this exclusion so far and whether his head is elsewhere.
  23. Benitez to Everton finalised. That means he's managed every team in Engalnd apart from Tottenahm😎
