Ouch West Ham confirm fan in away end at Genk lost a FINGER amid wild goal celebrations | Daily Mail Online WWW.DAILYMAIL.CO.UK KIERAN GILL: Footage was circulating on social media on Thursday night showing the finger being picked up off the floor by a steward and placed on the fence in front of the travelling support.

First Call of Duty I don't own on release and probably never will. Shame as it seems Sledgehammer have tried their hardest under very difficult circumstances but for many people, franchise fatigue is at its peak. I actually think Treyarch are largely to blame for people feeling this way as they've relied on recycled crap for such a long time now whilst providing users very little in terms of new and innovative content. At least SHG made a huge effort and this has been the case since Condrey and Schofield departed but WW2 again was a bit safe and uninspired. There's more original maps at launch in Vanguard than there was in the whole of Cold War which is pretty telling but I'm gonna save myself and see what Modern Warfare 2 2 does next year.

A mini meltdown in the interview too😂

It just gets worse - season will almost be over by the time this update arrives!

Looks glorious! Some stunning landscapes and all the usual From Software stuff and more.

Sorry Lee😮

A 15 minute Elden Ring gameplay reveal is coming tomorrow | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM The 15-minute gameplay preview will be streamed on YouTube and Twitch. I hope it's pure gameplay and no waffling!

Just finished the first campaign - The Normans 1066-1217 which was really good! Took just over 10 hours.

Kinda serves them right for neglecting Overwatch and getting complacent with content and taking everything for granted. It's not just this series that's been affected either - it's most of their established IP's including World of Warcraft and Blizzard have lost over 40% of players in the last few years because of it. Overwatch 2 only stemmed from a panic decision to rejuvenate interest in the brand when they should have been continually developing and expanding the original and I definitely agree that content intended for the sequel should have gone into this and it should've been the case all along. Any newly produced material that is deemed finished should be injected now or as part of an update. Their complacency was evident long before all the recent drama and lawsuits so I dread to think how they can salvage things with so many key departures and sunken morale. Overwatch 2 wont have the same impact whatsoever and the longer the delay, the lest interested people will be. Not only that, they have to fill the void with stacks of PR in the coming years when for the last 3, they've done nothing for the brand. Absolute disaster all round!

Confirmed delays for Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 and don't expect to seem them next year either Overwatch 2 and Diablo 4 are delayed | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM Both games "will benefit from more development time."

Seems a very short contract and I'm guessing he was desperate to get back into work with Ole simply unmovable and Arteta improving. Spurs probably spent more paying Nuno off than bringing Conte in but it would've been cheaper if they broke the bank during the summer. Hopefully it isn't too late for him to put the shit into Kane and co who have been half arsing it all season. Even though his deal carries an option to extend, an 18 month contract shouldn't sit right with anybody but Spurs are really out of options now and probably out of money too.

Done deal Antonio Conte: Tottenham appoint former Chelsea boss as new manager - BBC Sport WWW.BBC.CO.UK Tottenham name former Chelsea boss Antonio Conte as their new manager on a contract until summer 2023.

This looks a good map

I picked the game up yesterday after getting a good discount and have really enjoyed it so far. Definitely needs some QoL improvements and additions but it's a great and familiar foundation. The presentation of the campaign missions is excellent with the real world videos and narrative plus the gameplay is generally solid. I wish the UI had a bit more detail - it's clean but it all blends a bit too much plus the visuals need a bit more vibrancy and variety. Other than that, it's really good!

Nuno Espirito Santo: Tottenham sack head coach after four months - BBC Sport WWW.BBC.CO.UK Tottenham Hotspur sack head coach Nuno Espirito Santo after just four months in charge. Steve Bruce incoming..

He was definitely a bad fit and at the same time he was taking on a poisoned chalice essentially. There are a few players who are also heavily responsible and the board have to take a look at some of their signings. It would appear that a lot hinges on whether they can get Fonseca in over Newcastle. Just imagine if Nuno gets the boot and then Ryan Mason steps in again! In reality, Spurs should not have ridded Mourinho at the time but that was on just on many bad decisions made by the club in the last two and a half years.

I'm hearing Nuno will be sacked within the next 2 hours.

I loved AOE2 growing up and this game really captures the spirit of that which is great. The only thing holding me back is the price and there is some crucial things that need improving or adding that should have been dealt with during the playtest. It would be fantastic to get back into RTS gaming and this game is ideal but I'll probably see how things go next week.

Spurs 0-3 Man Utd Absolutely pathetic result and performance by the look of things - Spurs now 2pts behind Arsenal despite having a 9pt head start. Also statistically one of the worst teams in the league and it defies belief they are in the top half. Nuno has to go and I think a total ownership change is needed else the club will go nowhere in that stadium. The team is a complete catastrophe and needs a major overhaul.

It's a pretty sad state of affairs when fans are delighted that were are receiving the same amount of content day one than what we used to get back in 2009-10 at launch. Credit to Sledgehammer for delivering some quantity at least but whether the maps on offer along with the game itself has any quality is another matter. I don't like them recycling maps either because once Treyarch started doing that, they got awfully comfortable and their innovation and creativity nosedived. Sledgehammer shouldn't be rehashing other developers maps either and instead doing their own content from scratch. I still haven't found one reason to buy the game and this will be the first COD I don't own. I haven't seen 'hype' so flat since Infinite Warfare and this one could be received even worse now with Warzone such a high priority for the majority. I don't think my interest in Call of Duty has ever been so low and I probably wouldn't even play it if it was free.

Deathloop down by 34% in the Steam Halloween sale. I never finished this game in the end because it got old fast sadly. I really enjoyed the first few hours but it soon became repetitive and tedious. The biggest culprit is the AI which is probably the worst I have ever encountered in a game and without a doubt, the most dissatisfying to go up against. It plays such a big part in the experience but the enemies are just so stupid, it's like playing a COD campaign mission on recruit over and over. They pose no threat, are easy to cheese and the game itself is very generous with 2 reprise (2 lives) per location which makes the game pathetically easy. You could in theory die 8 times in one loop and still finish the game. By nature of its design whereby you can infuse (retain) powers, weapons, perks and other boosts, Colt only gets stronger as the game progresses yet it's too easy even barebones. There are no difficulty settings either and the stealth elements are very weak because bodies disappear into Residuum so they don't need to be hidden. There are some good ideas in this game and I think the framework is there but the execution is way off in a few regards. Game is too easy and only gets easier by design and the AI is beyond horrendous. I think they probably could've done with twice as many locations too and a couple that are in the game aren't big or varied enough as it is. I don't care how much someone enjoyed the game or how lenient their review score threshold is, there is just no way this game deserves 10/10 under any credible circumstances.

Some great news Oculus Quest VR headsets to eliminate mandatory Facebook account log-in requirement | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM You will soon no longer need a personal Facebook account in order to play your Oculus VR headset. It's also good that you can pick up a 128gb one for £299 now. As soon as they remove the Facebook requirement then this may become an interesting proposition especially with San Andreas now confirmed for VR. I'd love to play RE4 and Alyx this way. Anyhow, fuck Zuckerberg and Facebook.
