  1. Just to balance it Phil will like that one
  2. I wouldn't usually endorse laughing when an old person falls over but I think humanity will make an exception for this one:-
  3. Wow this game looks incredible! Cheers for the vid Joe
  4. Arsenal 1-3 Monaco
  5. Delayed again until April 14th apparently
  6. Heists confirmed for March 10th on console and 14th April on PC.
  7. Racist Chelsea thug turns out to be ex-cop http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/uknews/ex-cop-says-sorry-over-chelsea-racism-incident/ar-BBhRcRf?ocid=mailsignoutmd No arrests made yet despite Scotland yard on the prowl for the men. Double-standards here we come..
  8. I didn't know he could play the guitar. I think this alone was more surprising than the actual punch
  9. Just shows that Henderson is a weak-ass capatin. Definitely wrong of Mario but any captino with some balls would have kept hold of the ball and told the Italian to piss off! Now Balotelli is back to his cocky ways; Liverpool really need to nip it in the bud before his full antics come to the fore. He may have scored but it could have a deeper affect on the dressing room as we've seen with him before if he becomes too high and mighty off and more importantly on the field.
  10. Cheers! Definitely be looking to pick this up in the coming weeks. Seems to be much more solid than Rome II was at launch which is crucial for me. Been dying to get back into the series
  11. How is Attila Jordie?
  12. Advanced Flawfare is free to play on Schteem this weekend
  13. 6.5 on IGN http://uk.ign.com/articles/2015/02/19/the-order-1886-review 5.0 on Gamespot http://www.gamespot.com/reviews/the-order-1886-review/1900-6416033/ Well that's disappointing. I'll probably try and borrow it from a friend at some stage for a weekend regardless.
  14. Cannot wait to see this pricks identified and shamed worldwide! Ironically they are probably Chelsea season ticket holders and are most likely held in the utmost respect on the Chelsea fan database. So many Chelsea fans always give it large overseas and I'm glad finally some of them have been exposed for what they truly are. This goes for many other English clubs as they take their Brit tourists abroad to 'take over' a hosting city. Many clubs in the Prem are ignorant, naive and oblivious to some of the shenanigans going on overseas from their fans and it takes an incident like this to draw in their rare attention. Even a few massive Chelsea fans I know say some of their supporters are massive bellends and only come out of the woodwork 12 years ago
  15. AKA Afroman - cracking performance up until this happened:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJ2u94YaDK0
  16. Epic live fail https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqrLxcO28zE http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2959474/Jo-Joyner-left-red-faced-messing-line-EastEnders-live-episode.html
  17. I'm quite looking forward to the soaps this week with the 'who killed Lucy Beale' nonsense coming to a head with a live episode Friday. Peggy Mitchell returns tonight even though she left the series years ago...permanently and despite making a couple of appearances since. I just hope someone botches the live show as that would be hilarious and even more satisfying than the killer being revealed My money is on Lauren though especially the way the recent episodes have been deflected away from her. Also the fact Jacqueline Jossa is pregnant in real life and is likely to leave just suggests that it will be pinned on her and she'll go on the run from the square when found out. I might be wrong but that is probably logical. Shame to lose Lauren if it goes this way as she is pretty bang tidy
  18. If it's on a GAME gift card; you can use that online but only when the game is released because they don't accept payment by gift cards on pre-order items which is fecking annoying.
  19. I haven't actually tried it yet either but I've heard from others that it is excellent. The MP is not so good apparently but you can actually do the entire campaign with up to 4 players co-op which is a fantastic offering. Players can apparently drop in and out when they like and can either finish missions solo or join/invite friends to do so.
  20. Haha excellent video Dave Nice use of the Mastercard banner to fully capture the Champions League autheticity Yep! The only ref in football history to be more of a legend than many players - he's a CL icon!
  21. I finished it the other day and I definitely think it's the best game that's come out for a very long time and one that has surprised me greatly. It took about 45 hours to reach the conclusion and I still have another 15 probably on side quests. The mechanics are incredibly well implemented and make for an astonishingly enjoyable experience throughout. I don't think I've played a game for years where the fun has been maintained to such a high standard all the way through. It's a bit of a shame the story is a bit weak and the characters are largely forgettable as if they had a powerful narrative with a strong cast; this would have been breaching the masterpiece barrier. Great to see so many people enjoying it and anyone that hasn't got it yet should really pick it up when they get a chance. It's worth every penny even at full-whack!
  22. I just think value for money should be championed as a criteria for overall quality rather than just what's on offer in the time you play. I have certainly played my fair share of shorter games in the past and have really enjoyed them but I guess I just expect more bang for my buck these days. I played and finished Heavy Rain a few years ago when I borrowed my mates PS3 and it was a great experience and a one of a kind game that just had that something special in terms of the concept and movie-style presentation. I think I got about 12 hours out of it and that would be an exception if I did pay the full £30 price tag at the time but a game like The Order that has been developed for 5 years, had a nine-figure production value and can only muster a duration lasting one sitting in some instances; it just seems lackluster for 2015. I think value for money will certainly be something of a major consideration before people purchase and how the mainstream will judge the game.
  23. I pretty much operate on a £1 = 1 hour ratio when it comes to games and nowadays I don't look at games on overall quality, but what they actually over in terms of value for money. I bought Dying Light a few weeks back for £30 and got a return of 45 hours on campaign completion and I can still see another 15 hours left on side quests and achievements. I think that's a fantastic return for my money and the fact the game is of a very impressive quality is a massive bonus on top. I recently saw feedback of The Order 1886 from a YouTube uploader who got the game early. He was quite damning about the game as he finished it in just over 5 hours with key cutscenes also included in the time. For a game that took 5 years to produce and a cost of £50 to the player; this is a pitiful return for the game in lasting quality and value for money. It makes you wonder why they bothered producing the title. It equates to £10 an hour for the gamer and 1 year of development = 1 hour of gameplay. Pretty pathetic really especially with today's high expectations. I look back at the older Call of Duty titles and for £40 on each title; I probably had 500 hours of entertainment on each, so I had no concerns stumping up for the DLC as it was essentially bought and paid for and would give even more hours on top. Destiny may have been ridiculed in the media and I don't own the game but for £40 and the additional content; if you get 100 hours out of the product minimum, that is a bloody decent purchase regardless of any issues associated with it. I see people moan about games like DayZ who have 600+ hours on record all for just £20 and they still feel ripped off and letdown. That's kinda sad and maybe they should look at the bigger picture on how much they can get out of a game based on what they've financially committed to it. I once blew £7.49 (half price) on a game called Gone Home which I finished in 58 minutes - I felt robbed that I wasted my money and felt devastated for the people that spent £15 on it full price. This didn't stop IGN giving it a 9.5 as they failed to take into consideration the longevity and replayability. It's the type of game you only visit once and in one sitting so whether you spent £7.49 or £15 on it; the return rate is despicable. In this graphics-emphasised era of gaming; it seems so many developers have forgot to give us worthwhile games that represent a worthy purchase. It doesn't matter how good a game looks if it has no meat to it and with the lavish prices we have to pay; I think value for money is something that needs to be highlighted more than visuals and gameplay within the few hours on offer in certain titles. I can also spend £3.50 every 30 minutes down the pub and have a headache the next day so really; if a game can offer a lasting experience; I'd trump this aspect ahead of other criterias that may overlook value at the end of the day.
