  3. Here's what was behind the pitch invasions at White Hart Lane on Thursday
  4. I've gotten back into AW this week and played Momentum pretty much non-stop and it's definitely the best mode in the whole game and it's a shame we haven't seen it in other matches since WAW as it's fantastic and frantic fun throughout. It kinda turns the game into a classic arena-style MP battle which isn't a typical COD format but it bloody works and works well. The spawns are a bit iffy and there will always be retarded teammates but I cannot express how much fun there is in this mode. The mechanics and general pace of the game are really suited to it too.
  5. Same! Went from level 1 to 21 after just one match of momentum
  6. I made my eagerly anticipated start to Far Cry 4 last night and played a couple of hours which included the prologue and a few missions. I was a massive fan of Far Cry 3 and it really turned out to be a memorable game on the last gen. This game however I'm struggling to get into and I was bored shitless in most of the time I played. Dunno if I wasn't in the right frame of mind but I was taken aback how tedious things seemed. The game is familiar which is fantastic as I loved the FC3 structure but the story seems woeful, the characters are awful and the acting is borderline embarrassing. Kyrat looks incredible but the map layout is a bit horrendous with so many trees, hills and mountains. The gunplay feels ropey and the missions seem extremely dull. Everything seems a bit mundane so far which I did not expect. I really hope I get into it and the game grows but for all its similarities; it just doesn't seem as good as its predecessor.
  7. Steam Exploration Sale The Evil Within £11.89 Civilization Beyond Earth £17.49 Don't Starve £2.74 The Long Dark £7.49 CSGO £5.99 Company of Heroes 2 £7.49 + loads more!
  8. The melee system is a joke - I was killed by someone with their back to me who punched a wall instead and I still died. Even on his killcam; he was facing the fucking wall
  9. Ah that's good to know! I'll keep my eyes on it and see how it's doing up until Xmas then may take the plunge as I could do with a racing game.
  10. She's damn fine
  11. Alien Isolation £15.99 on Humble Bundle just for today
  12. I love the Batman games and I'm delighted Rocksteady have come back with this one. Origins was a decent effort by WB Games but it just didn't have that Rocksteady polish and style which made Asylum and City so bloody good! Arkham is going to look unreal in this game and with the staggering cinematics; it'll be just like playing in a movie
  13. It's been a long road but DayZ is finally getting there! I think the devs have done extremely well despite falling a couple of months behind and having to deal with people who bought the alpha and were left dumbfounded when they realised it wasn't a finished game I've really enjoyed the game this year - mostly done two months on and two off between updates but I'll be hopping on again in the next couple of weeks to see how it's progressed past ver.50. I hope vehicles aren't too readily available and easy to get going as the already-toxic community will be causing carnage with the feature just like the tent frenzy! The game is fantastic on foot though but vehicles in some form are highly anticipated and welcomed. Still a long way to go but DayZ has the potential to be one of the best games ever produced.
  14. The Obsidian Steed variant is also +2 damage on what is an already a completely overpowered gun. It's -1 on accuracy but seeing that the gun has basically no recoil particularly with the 2 hit kill tops; it's not much of a counterbalance. Apparently the original BAL has been nerfed on the old gen which has added more muzzle climb but people are saying with the grip; it's just the same as before. Wonder when they patch the current gen and PC versions they'll dock attributes on the Elite versions too like the Obsidian?
  15. Looks like they will http://mp1st.com/2014/11/19/battlefields-next-installment-heads-back-series-roots/
  16. Skill-Based Matchmaking - worst implementation in Call of Duty history and a key factor for sever connection and lag issues due to excessive algorithmic stress on matchmaking. Theoretically a good idea but with lag compensation also a prominent feature; it just causes needless frustration. With League Play in the game; there is no need to streamline the core playlists. SBM was removed in Black Ops 2 after an outcry and there is literally no need for SHG to include it in AW. Dedicated Servers - essential for a game of this magnitude so why are so many games still running P2P? Locale-oriented dedi's should be compulsory for games like this especially in this brand. The fact that they are still rolling majority P2P along with host advantage and then taking into consideration SBM and lag comp; I could be playing a game on a host based in India against fellow high K/D players whilst being sunk by lag comp. Simply ridiculous. Connection Bars Over Ping - This isn't 2007. The bar system alone is completely unreliable and isn't demonstrative enough for a clear reading. Ping counts should be once again compulsory and there is no reason on planet earth as to why it isn't a feature.
  17. Brendan Rodgers surely a prime candidate for the chop after today..
  18. I think Advanced Warfare is a great game aside from a few niggly issues. It's certainly the best Call of Duty for years and a significant improvement on last year. I didn't play MW3, BO2 or Ghosts very much because I didn't enjoy them like the old days with COD 4, WAW, MW2 and BO1 so as long as AW was great; I thought I'd really give it a dedicated play on the daily but instead; I'm feeling less and less motivated to play despite being impressed with the title. I've played about 35 hours so far since release which is a fair bit but still significantly less than many I have seen and I'm currently P1 Lvl 41. I just feel really burnt out though which is strange because with only playing about 200 hours of COD in the last 3 years; I was hoping to really engage with the series on a regular level like before with this game. I don't know if I'm just tired of COD in general or have outgrown it, but even it being a great game in my eyes with hours of fun to be had, it still can't give me that incentive to play. I did think I was getting a bit fed up of FPS games altogether but I am really looking forward to starting Far Cry 4 next week and would rather invest my time on different games such as Dragon Age Inquisition than Call of Duty at the minute. I will certainly continue to play AW in the coming weeks when I feel like but these past ten or so days; I've only played a few matches and don't even feel I'm missing out on much. Anyone going or feel the same way?
  19. Leaked on a shady part of the internetz.. I live in hope!

  21. I'm certainly getting this on the PC also for the modding scene but anyone considering thinking about GTA V for the current gen should really consider their feelings for the game carefully before taking the full price plunge. It's still amazing but it may not have the same impact it once did on people. Fingers crossed R* do a good port with plenty of modding opportunities though. The release date being pinned back might not be a bad sign though..
  22. Picked this up yesterday and unless you are fully committed to the MP portion or have a desire to do the story again; it's best worth skipping and looking forward. It's still an amazing game and the step-up in visuals is staggering but this doesn't really make the game an essential purchase. The first person mode does offer the game in a new perspective but driving in this view is incredibly difficult and frustrating. The other minor additions are just more cars, music and improved detail along with greater draw distances but everything else on the whole is the same as expected. It really does look phenomenal but for many people; I think GTA V is a game from a past era that probably isn't worth experiencing again just for the sake of a few enhancements regardless of how impressive and people will be focusing on other new games. The fact that it costs even more than the original did at launch is another issue although the price I would deem justified as the game originally was exceptional value for money but it's probably not worth paying a greater premium for now. If you ever get a craving for GTA in the future and can pick this up cheap; it's definitely worth a revisit though.
  23. This is a prolific error message on Xbox One and PC and it's down to the Sledgehammer services. There has been no real acknowledgement of why it happens but it's plagued so many people for no reason. It took me 12 attempts the other day to connect and sometimes if I can't get on now; I exit the game and relaunch and I get in first time. Just doesn't make sense but it's not related to PSN or your internet - blame Sledgehammer!
  24. Oh dear Joe; you never used uPlay before? That's a fatal move buying Ubisoft games on PC I'm sure you'll be able to sample the game sometime before Christmas
