The girl who did that has had numerous infractions and has never even had a slap on the wrist. She's also apparently given her cat vodka on stream previous and is generally very toxic. A guy who accidentally dropped his cat on Stream got banned, was used as a comparison as rumours of sexism and bias plague the platform. Another big streamer was banned the other day for showing a comedy customised Hitler character in-game for two seconds by accident yet females have pulled nazi salutes and other similar stuff and gone unpunished. The whole platform is a shambles and whilst the cat throw thing probably isn't as bad as described, the complaints are mostly down to frustration more than anything.

It's become a significant deal lately with some truly outrageous decisions and double standards from what I've seen. Usually the community are the ones that get annoyed by such things but now some popular streamers are getting very concerned a frustrated by how Twitch is running the show. It's a good platform but Amazon really needs to overhaul the team that runs it because they will lose more big names and viewership going forward.

I cautiously optimistic so far from what I've seen to the extent, I am feeling a little hyped! I still don't trust Activision in the long run but if IW can deliver a strong game then hopefully it will soften the bullshit blow we may get down the line. Not many people played Infinite Warfare but the devs handled the post-launch of that game very well and unlike Treyarch in recent times, they weren't totally at the mercy of microtransactions. My thoughts on MW so far:- + Graphics look solid + Mechanics look fluid + Gunplay seems polished + TTK looks on point + Real guns and equipment + Maps are nice and varied to fit multiple styles, situations and modes. No more limited MLG Gfuel 3 lane shoeboxes. + Killstreaks look enjoyable + Tactical open/closing doors😂 + In-depth weapon customisation + Slick menu and clean interface + Final killcam - no more trendy POTG bollocks + No more fantasy specialist bullshit - Not sure about the realism mode of night vision only maps - may get boring fast. - No scorestreak format so camping could be rife and people not playing the objective particularly in 10v10/20v20 +/- still not sure about how the absence of the minimap will impact the experience although UAV's will be aplenty. So far I am very encouraged and it just puts into perspective how bad the direction the franchise has taken in recent years and the end quality. This is definitely more like it! Here's some bonus AC130 and Chopper Gunner gameplay I found

Although the majority of gameplay at the event was played on PC, here's one using mouse and keyboard with the new Cyber Attack mode. This is a great video

Big coup for Microsoft and a huge name lost for that cesspool Twitch which seems to be getting worse by the week regarding how it’s run. The move could give existing Twitch streamers a boost to their numbers from viewers who want to stay on the platform. I think Ninja will struggle to replicate his success but it could pave the way for others to depart and move to other platforms like him for more attractive contracts and better representation. Competition within the domain is good and Twitch have been comfortable for far too long.

Fulham spent over £100m last summer and went straight back down after being bottom for most of the season and having about 3 managers. but I think Villa are better equipped to stay up. Great championship team Villa had last year but with loanees, oldies and players that weren't quite at prem level, they had to spend big to stand any chance of competing.

Screenshot from the 100 player ground war mode. Not sure if this is BR or just one huge deathmatch.

Attention to detail is crazy even down to the latest tattos, beards and haircuts

The whole Italian league is fully licensed in PES except this time Juventus is included when before it was the only team that wasn't. PES 2019 also had the Scottish, Belgian, Spanish, French (L1, L2) Russian, Turkish, Danish and Dutch plus a few other top flight leagues from around the globe. This includes full names and kits - even unlicensed teams have real names unlike the old-school PES with the likes of Roberto Larcos, Ruud Vom Mistleroum and Ryan Greggs😂 The partnered teams in PES (fully licensed) also include the respective stadium so Old Trafford and Juve's ground will be in 2020. The beauty of PES is the editor where Konami have been crafty and made it very easy to mod and obtain real names and kits for sides that aren't fully licensed - there are day one patches and online USB downloads that can do this thanks to some highly skilled dedicated modders. FIFA is fully licensed top to bottom including all competitions however Juventus have broken away to be the first team ever to do this and instead they will have the name Piemonte Calcio in FIFA with real player names but not the kit or the stadium just how it was in PES before they signed for them instead. This is an example of what modders can do in PES🤣

I dunno, it looks pretty big unless the pic makes it look a bit distorted

Played a couple of games and it's really good. New camera is well optimised with the gameplay, visuals are excellent and it's really smooth. Refs are still shit and the atmosphere is pretty flat as always though.
