  1. Absolute disgrace - essentially banning Australia from accessing basic news because Facebook would have to comply with a law that pays the publisher of the article a cut rather than reap all the income for themselves by embedding the page. Not only does this annihilate democracy, it stops people accessing crucial pages and has even impacted jobs from innocent people caught in the crossfire. It's a sad day to see a giant corporation trying to override a government this way whilst kicking the media in the teeth by siphoning off their work. Sadly it will likely just lead to negotiation rather than severe action. Australia is one of the few nations left that don't bow to such bollocks so I hope they don't buckle. Facebook blocks Australian users from viewing or sharing news WWW.BBC.CO.UK It comes in response to a proposed law that would force the company to pay publishers for content. I remember having a debate about 12 years ago at an old job where people said Facebook was just a social site for friends to connect like Bebo and Myspace - I was even branded a paranoid conspiracy nutjob when I remotely suggested Facebook would grow its presence for sheer global power, the control information and extreme wealth!
  2. If this is true then COD is done for. This would have to be one of the most uninspiring and lazy moves imaginable, even worse than Battlefield 5. Sledgehammer are on thin ice enough as it is Call of Duty 2021 leak claims new CoD will be set in World War 2 again - Dexerto WWW.DEXERTO.COM Call of Duty 2021 will apparently be set in World War 2 once more, with...
  3. Update to the UK terrain looks good
  4. This is interesting Oculus Quest 2 120Hz update potential makes the Valve Index a far tougher sell | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM Oculus Quest 2's 120Hz update could make it a better VR headset than Valve's pricey goggles.
  5. Game has now passed 2m copies sold with 1m being sold in 4 days.
  6. This game has been ripped to shreds but this comparison is just adding insult😂
  7. I built my first raft yesterday to explore this island across the water and I immediately got it wedged between two rocks on the shore before I even managed to set sail😎 GGWP!
  8. The pronoun mafia are some of the most toxic of all the Twitter clowns - basically they go around celebrities profiles 18 hours a day asking them why they don't have their pronouns included in their bio and if they aren't willing to include it within 30 minutes, they are branded transphobic homophobes and nazi extremists. Almost as laughable of a situation as when a series of black celebs on social media were deemed right wing racists if they didn't include the BLM hashtag in their posts when the protests aka riots were going on. I am so happy I don't use the cesspool of social media. Whenever a story pops up like this, it's usually supposed anti-fascists fighting non-existent fascism they've created with their own brand of fascism or social justice warriors looking for anything to make them angry and then make a song and dance about it until someone buckles and they get their way. Basically anyone with a blue checkmark on Twitter that you haven't heard of is usually a cunt. Anyone with pronouns has either been forced to do it to save their career or they are one of those toxic progressives.
  9. I haven't really followed this but it's yet more double standards on something driven by a hate mob by the sounds of it. I've seen actors and other celebs endorse rioting, defunding police and literally wishing death on politicians and other people yet they've been branded 'stunning and brave'. There was a young black Disney actress last year who doxed random children only because they were apparently being 'racist' for questioning her extreme BLM stance for instance. We basically live in a world where a vocal minority uses platforms ran by like-minded owners to drive people down for literally no reason. Free speech and cenorship is the norm and if you say or do something wrong, some people with no lives online will aim to obliterate your career and life until they move onto the next person. I'm not sure if Disney are trying to right their wrongs or if they are just pandering to anyone who'd watch their shite these days but they should support their employees better and take action against the ones that legitimately do things wrong aka criminally.
  10. Game sold 1m copies in one week!
  11. Everton 5-4 Tottenham Spurs finally entertain under Jose but concede 5 to go out the cup! It was always going to be a tough game but that is a terrible result and another trophy missed. You gotta feel Mourinho has to with the Europa League as the League Cup won’t be enough.
  12. Do Black Flag first - Origins is an horrific grind after the 20 hour mark where you are level-gated and either have to do the same old mundane side quests over and over to progress, or pay Ubisoft for boosters where you proceed without playing the game😂 Christ I miss AC how it used to be. Thankfully Origins doesn't have any dance emotes😎
  13. Valheim Euro Truck Simulator 2
  14. AC Chronicles FREE on uPlay until the 16th. Login to claim
  15. This thread is talking about traditional multiplayer and not Battle Royale. Everyone and their mother knows that Activison print money from Warzone but this thread is about the impact this has had on the core multiplayer.
  16. I'm not a huge fan of survival games especially those that are in early access and didn't really understand what was so appealing about this one either looking at it, however I picked it up a few days ago as a punt and I have to say it is absolutely exceptional! Only played about 10 hours so far solo but everything in this game is on another level from the general mechanics to the fantastic crafting system. The building is really well implemented albeit a bit finicky on uneven land but the world is so intriguing and beautiful. Every aspect of this game so far feels spot-on and the potential is crazy - you really get the sense the developer knows exactly what they are doing and how to do it which is rare for this type of game. I hear the co-op also works really well and is tremendous fun! It's just a pleasant game to play that keeps on surprising with some great attention to detail and progression aspects tied to the crafting. I think this will be the best survival game of its kind if it isn't already and I've experienced zero bugs or issues so far. It feels so polished and really puts other games in this tarnished genre to shame.
  17. Fortnite is free and the skins in that game are very impressively done especially the licenced ones. Call of Duty on the other hand paints a gun a few colours and tweaks the back-end statistics and then wants users to pay £30+ just for one. Fornite is also an ongoing game whereas COD becomes obsolete each year so spending £1000+ on cosmetics for a year only to do it again on the next game doesn't really provide value.
  18. CD Projeckt Red have been hacked, release the ransom note they have been sent WWW.THESIXTHAXIS.COM Cyberpunk 2077 developers CD Projeckt Red have issued a statement stating they have been a victim of a "targeted cyber attack" which compromised some of their internal systems. The hacker claims they
  19. Not only that, ones that do it in the multiplayer which becomes obsolete in a year! Same with FIFA - users spend insane money only to buy the same game the following year and go back to square one. I remember that guy that spent $2000 on an empty tiered battle pass in Black Ops 4🤣 At least on the likes of CSGO you can sell your skins to other dimwits and make money. With COD, you're spending crazy money on coloured pixels and that's it. Sad that this is the culture we live in now and it's just crazy how much publishers can make from it which kills off incentives in making a good game.
  20. Judgement week for Anthem - we may never see the 2.0 revival after all Anthem's days may be numbered as EA will reportedly decide on its fate this week | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM A report says EA executives will examine the game's status and decided whether to commit to the update, or pull the plug.
