  1. I'll stick maybe too as I would love to be there, just very difficult to get 3-4 hours free on a weekend around the kids and family. Definitely worth trying out though for sure as we've never done this kind of thing before.
  2. I raised a similar thread recently @JBR-Kiwi as I had never bought my own personal router so with the advice I plumped for a Netgear Nighthawk X6. Link is below: NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 Smart Wifi Router (R8000) - AC3200 Tri-band Wireless Speed (up to 3200 Mbps) | Up-to 3500 sq ft Coverage & 50 Devices | 4 x 1G Ethernet and 2 USB Ports | Armor Security: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK Buy I have to be honest, if we didn't have @crispymorgan around to help understand why it didn't just work from the get go then I could've potentially sent it back. Maybe it was just my luck as i would be hopeful any of these Netgear Nighthawk models would just need to be plugged in and away you go. The WiFi is over 200mbps which is fantastic and the range is way better than the VM Superhub 3 that I had (granted I have also changed to Vodafone Gigafast but there router was even worse). I think you might not need to go for a super expensive one if you are looking at a wired connection to your PS4. How far is the router away from your PS4? If its not easy LAN cable distance have you tried Powerlines already?
  3. Unfortunately I think you'll kick our arses at any driving game. Even the ones where we can intentionally smash each other you have a higher win percentage. Bastard. You see, I'm hopeful that GT Sport was a prelude into GT 7. Part of me thinks the framework will just be copied across and they've taken all this time to produce this content to add to it and resell it as GT&. I ain't bothered about that at all either. They given us very generous free updates that could've been DLC. OMG, bring this back as well and we finally have a long lasting racing game at FG.
  4. I laughed way too hard at this. Dave @Plumbers Crack I think the one that James has got is the one I was looking at. For personal home use to print a few letters or even a few home photos it looks like it does the job for £50. The only thing I've been looking out for is for maybe a slightly smaller one that excels in printing photos at different sizes. The kids and I like making different things with our pics and I especially want different sizes for some memory scrapbooks I want to make. Hard to get close to the HP one's price and quality though.
  5. I haven't watched this yet but something to bear in mind is what he tweeted after this. Fair play to him for saying the below as well: I still think a game like this will hit the mark with most people. They won't lose a lot of the fundamental game mechanics that made the first one so good. The only i'll continue to be disappointed about is that it doesn't have a multiplayer side to it which is a huge opportunity missed imo.
  6. Battlefield is in such a weird spot. I really didn't think much was wrong with Battlefield 1 but it continues to lag behind the CoD franchise. Its not helped by CoD actually hitting nearer the mark of late. Everyone raves about Battlefield 4 so it could be worth trying something with the core of that and getting some creative gamemodes in it.
  7. I'll take a look at that seaweed stuff, thanks mate. I don't plan to have many plants yet, tidying up the garden first so its more usable but i've always wanted to make some coffin planters for my front garden thats huge but I can't do much with.
  8. I think this is one of those things to get your head around the most. FF games create amazing worlds to go and run around in, no matter the era or graphics. ATB was just the ticket when FF7 came out on the Playstation way back then. For kids like me growing up it got you thinking a little like playing chess but in a more intense gaming arena. Unfortunately for me, I enjoyed this way so much that when i picked up a few later in the series ( it was 13 i believe) I just couldn't get on with the Unique Battle System. It is the one thing i'm overly notlooking forward to when i play the FF7 remake even if you have ATB options rolled into it. I'd also say that the Summons were the most amazing things ever back in 7 and 8. Create a mini movie scene with each fight, even if its a weak chocobo was just hilarious to use and the animations on how each Summon worked were very unique. I've never played anything before 7 but I probably should try. The only thing to realise is that FF games are usually on the grindy side, especially early ones because Japan were heavily into that way of gaming in those days - so you need to put some time aside to get through them. I'm shamed to admit that I have played FF7 and FF8 for hours on end, yet i never completed them. Never say never though.
  9. Ah cool, nice keeping to the original history mate. So is the passion to recreate a design and then make one modded to your own ideas? Concept cars are usually the best to look at and have a visual orgasm - probably cos we never get to see the real version 😍😩
  10. Not been on much since the start of Season 4 but its no surprise if the Fennec is wrecking - it is one of the new guns after all so it has to be appealing.
  11. The Drawn & Quartered Legendary pick up in the wild is an absolute blast. Perhaps because its a Grau but when its paired up with a decent AR you can move in aggressively starting with your longer ranged AR or SMG and then switch to the Drawn & Quartered to obliterate the squad and closer ranges. It is well worth picking up at whatever time in the match.
  12. I wouldn't say slapstick. Its a comedy of errors that was kinda done in a new format at the time. It was done really well that many easy comedy films afterwards followed their style so try and remember that when you watch it. I tend to think its a bit like when you wake up and you're having one long bad day, but for grown ups.
  13. Enrage phase?! What is this!? I've never noticed this phase on the bosses before. I hardly use the knife against other players as I never seem to get that close to them. The dusters feel quicker to use overall.
  14. Absolutely. Not all films have to the best AAA product you've ever seen. I'm up for an easy, funny watch.
  15. I enjoyed the new Robocop but in a weird I kinda didn't like how much of him was left. And i'm not sure why that bothered me much, maybe because I wanted him to feel and look more 50/50 human/robot type of thing. I re-watched Jack Reacher - Never Go Back as its on Netflix recently. A bit more of a raw action hero which I tend to like because it shows he has his weaknesses, like Starlord or Indiana Jones. Well made, Tom Cruise is definitely a little different to what we usually see in Mission Impossible films.
  16. Lets hope not. Theres still been a few out there have been well worth it. And its not a remake which is a plus.
  17. Nice to hear how and why you're finding it a positive change. I've already vaulted things like the Recluse and some machine guns such as 21% Delerium and Hammerhead. I think working out what works well again for the next few seasons works is far more exciting than using the same stuff all the time. It also helps you look at the Artefact to see which mods work well with the weapons on offer from this season. I think there is one downside @Bluebear had found which is that if you do have a good roll of a older gun that has a new version that is being kept, you may need to find this weapon again in the wild. I don't have many like that but I can see how that would be a bummer. I think because exotics won't be sunset at all its working in Destiny's favour right now to follow this path.
  18. Top offer @Greboth, absolute legend of a cunt man 💛 I actually didn't even realise AC was on PS4, was thinking about resurrecting the time trial stuff because of how good GT 7 looked. What made GT stand out initially as a series was the detailed yet easy to understand customisation of the cars and the vast campaign with multiple classes to go and accomplish. I really hope that the campaign they are promising delivers, it looks stunning.
  19. This is most right a person has been in a bajillion years. Possibly one of the best series ever made and then film to back it up. I've never ever watched a single episode of the original or remake. Where can I watch it these days?
  20. I'm with you in taking breaks - unfortunately I find I have less breaks on my work days because i'm at home. What I have started to do though is walk with my daughter up and down the hill that my close is on whilst she rides her bike. It gets me 1k-2k steps in so hopefully it stays dry enough to do this a few times a day.
  21. I have no idea how this runs but i've seen a lot of the americans on it lately on the PS4 @Capn_Underpants @Horrible_Hector @igotmollywhopped @reaper-2201 . Hows the game running now? What seems to be the big draw into the game?
  22. I don't think there's been a better fit for a FG Friday night game than Wreckfest. 4 hours flew by before we knew it. Great to see a total of 16 of us across the night too. @Greboth is starting to get the hang of it now and be that ultimate prick that wins every race...unless Rich @tronic44 doesnt friggin win it. Double pricks! Oh, and @phil bottle is starting to become one of these elite pricks too picking me off at every opportunity. What's happening to you caring bastards! Paul @slamminbones was his usual self smashing me 50 miles up into the air. Nice to see new boys @Tadnothad and @Findmartin join the Wreckfest carnage. i enjoyed destroying them both but I think Tad enjoyed so much he passed out by the end of the night 🤣 @Diddums was spectacularly late. So late that he still needed a fag after the hard work of 1 whole race. @techno impressed me last night, he was quite well reserved and didnt come last everytime. @TonyAE86 is becoming my bad habit. The amount of times I nearly wrecked somebody, his car pops up and smashes me off course. Cheeky bastard. Good to see @crispymorgan getting back on the road of ol' FG. It didnt go a miss that you were telling your son to kill me too, forgive and not forget, bitch 🤩 Top, epic night. GGFG all @G_dub52 @slamminbones @Stretch616 @techno @phil bottle @tronic44 @Greboth @crispymorgan @Findmartin @phil bottle @Spacedeck @Tadnothad @TonyAE86 @Diddums @Ajay1997.
