FIFA 14 on the PS4 is bloody unreal! It looks immaculate with a slick presentation that really captures the TV football feel. The ignite engine is very impressive indeed. The YouTube videos do not do this game justice; it looks astonishing! The controls are tighter but at least you feel like your controlling a footballer and not a blow up doll in the wind. The stadium atmosphere is buzzing and the crowd is nice in 3D. Gameplay doesn't feel as scripted as it did for the last few FIFA games and you feel EA have a real platform to build on. Pity I lost my first game as Real Madrid to AFC Wimbledon though!

Avoid ladders when possible as many people have glitched and died randomly! Yeah the KOS mentality is pretty prominent at the minute to avoid turning DayZ into some sort of hiking/jogging simulator. Once more features are added along with the much-needed survival elements such as more frigging zombies; I think the community may mature and change the way they play.

I used to love playing footie in the rain Shame half the time we played on concrete though!

I never liked that Foxy Knoxy! She looked like an evil, manipulative slag. Trying to frame that barman by describing the events exactly as they happened despite not being there apparently, stank of guilt. The Italians still have to go through the extradition process which could take yonks and Sollecito is free pending yet another appeal this time at the supreme court as I understand. He has to surrender his passport though. It's still not over by a long shot it seems. Either way; I don't know much about the legal process particularly in Italy but it's been a cock-up from start to finish.

Don't know if anyone's been following this tit-for-tat justice farce for the past seven or so years but once again we're back in the crazy Italian justice system for yet another trial verdict which is imminent. I am struggling to keep up and follow where we are with it but I believe they're at the murder trial part deux. Neither defendant has bothered to show either. I take it Knox's 'I didn't do it' book is on ice momentarily

How is McDonalds going Dylan?

Anyone run this with their PS4 and how does it work in relation with the PS4 regarding games? Oh and they are bringing out a Vita Slim soon!

Typical bloody footballers in the making!

Celebrity culture today no doubt is a tough, demanding, exhausting, intrusive and perhaps depressing experience which can ultimately affect someone dramatically. Some celebs can adjust to the lifestyle and daily pressures and others can go off the rails. It's been happening for decades and in this modern age; it clearly can affect people in more severe ways in which the public lap it up in the gossip and media domain. Bieber's antics of late can mimic that of the ordinary person; if your average Joe Bloggs did this; nobody but the neighbours would care. Whether Justin's problems are down to the celebrity climate or him just being an arrogant and immature prick is something that we cannot divulge at this time. Famous people his age within the celeb domain can conduct themselves in a proper manner and as a role model for many people; you'd expect better from Bieber. Perhaps he cannot help it due to the lifestyle pressures and wanting a bad-boy image or perhaps he's just a little shitbag that should be taught a lesson in the big boy bad world. He has fans, he has haters; welcome to 2014 where the internet is your best friend and worst enemy.

Yep! I hate this withheld content culture. I remember when Watch Dogs was delayed; Ubisoft started banging on about DLC coming out in the summer - I was thinking; perhaps they should get their game in order before talking about the bloody content!

DAYZ PENDING UPDATE CHANGELOG Branch: Experimental ETA to Stable: 5-7 February 2014 Version: 0.33.114782 Known Issues: - Spawns: Loot is not spawning in military tents - Spawns: Some structures in Svetlo currently do not spawn loot - Server: Servers under load can delay actions from the client - Only 4 dynamic light sources will be rendered at one time currently What are experimental/stable branches? In your steam application settings, you can choose a “beta branch”. This allows you to opt in to our experimental branch to try it out. Does my saved character get affected in experimental branch? No. It runs on a different database, so any changes will not affect your character on stable branch. I can’t find a slot while on experimental branch! Only a small number of servers run this branch. You will need to change your game back to the stable branch and play on a normal server Can I join a stable branch server wil experimental branch client? No, you would need to change your client back to stable. When will this be in stable? We expect stable to be updated before the end of that week (by 7 February 2014). Why has not been fixed yet when there is new content coming in? While priorities are very important when assigning work, there is a limit to how many people can work on a complex task without making it even more complex. Also, many of the team are focused purely on content/design so while the important stuff is being fixed, they continue to provide content and design updates. Is mouse acceleration being fixed? It is not fixed in this update, but we plan to make control changes. It is not as simple as turning it “off” as the speed your character turns is not dictated by the mouse itself, but your movements combined with the type of weapon you have, how tired you are, etc. New: - Actions: chambering SKS round from pile, loading 10 rounds from pile - Actions: You can uncuff other players with the hacksaw - Actions: Cannot use an item (e.g. drink/eat) if it is “Ruined” - Actions: Interactions with items reworked. Drinking/Eating/etc… more robust and user-friendly - Actions: Restrained players cannot use inventory or action menu - Animations: Player now can take and hide rifle in crouched run - Animations: SKS reload animations - Crafting: FNX45 pistol can be chambered with single round - Crafting: Opening cans with combat knife added - Crafting: Opening cans with machete added - Crafting: Painting Motorbike Helmets to Black and Green - Effects: Magnum revolver ejecting shells when reloading - Effects: Magnum revolver sounds – gunshots, reloading - Effects: Mosin ejecting shells when cycling - Effects: New Mosin sounds – gunshots, cycling, reloading - Gear: Improvised courier backpack added - Gear: Machete added - Gestures: Clapping Gesture added, default F5 key - Gestures: Pointing Gesture added, default F6 key - Login: Player queuing system introduced.

Metro and Locker are pretty different although they both rely on teams moving offensively through a tight map. Matches can get very untidy very quickly and can become exhausting with persistent gun battles and tactics being thrown out of the window. Maps like these are more suited to rush and TDM but large ticket games on Conquest can be a bit too chaotic for me!

Chelsea fans LOL

What system are you on?

Ps who the hell is Frankie Muniz? Looks like a complete cockbag

Commander mode looks boring as fuck! Kinda reminds me of the Strikeforce missions in Black Ops 2. I'd rather be in the mix than in the sky performing some bland strategy. I think it's more of a show-off tech gimmick but hope they can build on something like this in the future

He really needs a new striker; Samuel Eto'ohundredthousandaweek is past it! I know they're bum-chums and he scored a hat-trick against United but he missed a wad and is marked out most of the games I've seen him in.

Also I may add that loot only spawns after server restarts usually every 4 hours so you see quite a few people 'server hopping' whoring items. It's best to select a low populated servers and focus on niche areas to pick up decent items for your inventory. So many players find a good area, scavenge everything and then find a different server, spawn in at the same place and resupply the same items. They really need to address the loot spawns and a server-hopping prevention method. Some players get their character wiped through this but others can build a good amount of items from this exploit. Also a fair few people of the community are a bunch of fucking wankers - more immature than the COD lot

Glad the case has been dropped http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-25950761

Seems the older he gets; the more immature he's become. What a prick!

Imperial edition revealed for ninety notes http://uk.ign.com/articles/2014/01/29/the-elder-scrolls-online-imperial-edition-leaked-by-amazon May skip this as it's already gonna cost a bomb with the monthly subscription

Well I fell asleep and missed MOTD Some cracking games over the past couple of days. City look like they are the best team in the world at the minute and Chelsea can't hit the net for shit. 39 shots and zilch goals! Great win for Villa in the end

3 fucking 3! MOTD is gonna be a good watch tonight

I'll just hop on and join whenever I can
