  1. I was wondering what happened to him. Cheers for the heads up Dave. I liked Lee and his in-depth scrutiny of political and world affairs but some of his theories were a bit far fetched and bordering on the farcical. I respected his thoughts regarding some things but in most cases; he would make a mountain out of a molehill of things and think there was always an ulterior motive behind events that would happen in the world. In the end, he seemed to use these boards more for spreading his 'illuminati' propaganda than taking a step back and having a balanced view of situations. Last I saw of him I think was in the Elliot Rodger thread where he even managed to concoct a media conspiracy behind that.

Seems like it's fixed now though
  3. Only 12,300 available worldwide at $499 - never thought I'd see something looking so good in grey!
  4. I don't know if people are familiar with Assassin's Creed as it's quite a niche and unknown brand but there is another game next year on the way called 'Victory' and it's set in London which is in Finland I believe. I hear Ubishaft who make these titles are regarded in the highest order in terms of technical execution and design quality.
  5. Picked up Dragonfall Directors Cut in the Steam sale and it's a great game. Opted to skip Returns as DDC offers a strong campaign with a completely new engine and interface that is apparently far better and more user-friendly. I'm really liking the turn-based combat RPG after Wasteland 2 and this is another example of a really well-executed game with a terrific backdrop and story.
  6. Cheers Phil and Rich! Does this game have a full installer or does it run through a browser at the minute?
  7. I've registered on the Star Citizen website but I'm just finding everything a bit overwhelming to understand even though most of the information is in there and around the community. I haven't been following the game closely enough and it looks like I've got quite a bit of catching up to do. Once you register, it seems to them have to buy a ship - $30 minimum it seems just to install and get access to the hangar but after that; I don't know what you're entitled to do in the game up until it's finished. I don't want to be throwing money aimlessly and get roped in to paying hundreds just to get going and that's not taking into account buying the game. It doesn't appear to be a fully-fledged subscription model but microtransactions seem to play a large part in success when the game is released. I'm gagging to give it a try but a lot more research is needed and just like Dave; I'll be beefing up by rig for this type of game and for the future but I need to keep a close eye on how much I'll be hemorrhaging on getting there and that's not taking into account my contribution towards the game itself. I think Phil has been following it more closely and has contributed towards the development so hopefully he can shed more detail on the foundation of the game and what to expect..
  8. As long as your rig is a quad core; you should be fine Graphics card should handle it on high too.
  9. Looking at the official site; doesn't look like they have the completed minimum specs up yet Tommy although they do have a brief on the basics needed - Minimum System Requirements Windows Vista (64 bit), Windows 7 (64 bit) or Windows 8 (64 bit) DirectX 11 graphics card with 1GB Video RAM Quad core CPU 8GB Memory
  10. Ho-lee-sheet
  11. I swear hasbeen brands get resurrected just for events like Black Friday! I bet Tesco done a deal with the old-school Blaupunkt to make 100,000 shite but big TV's for just that day to make a quick buck for them and Tesco. I bet we'll see JVC camera phones and Amstrad laptops come Christmas! 30hz for a TV is like a game running at 10fps. I spent £350 on a Samsung 600hz Smart TV a couple of weeks back and if I'm going to spend something; I'd rather splash out on something that's good value for what's on offer and an established brand that something that already sounds too close to 'Bankrupt' as in Blaupunkt Most of the people I saw in the reports looked like chavs lacking a double digit IQ buying that crap so screw it but the typical consumer will always think with their cheapskate mentality over quality especially when it comes to sales.
  12. Takes a while to adjust and spawns are a bit iffy on some maps but once you become accustomed to the general pace and craziness; it's bloody good fun and you can level up pretty good too!
  13. I see everyone in Tesco was fighting over TV's...Blaupunkt TV's; who the fuck are Blaupunkt?
  14. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4XcnGCeyfY Thank fuck I shop online mostly now
  15. Here's what was behind the pitch invasions at White Hart Lane on Thursday
  16. 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.
  17. Same! Went from level 1 to 21 after just one match of momentum
  18. 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.
  19. 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!
  20. 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
  21. 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.
  22. She's damn fine
  23. Alien Isolation £15.99 on Humble Bundle just for today
