Good work Bob @Baabcat, Kenny @IRaMPaGe and Matt @crippled_viper! I'm sitting on 4 Platinums so far. Probably should focus on them more but just love getting a winstreak going more! Another FG night of no losses last night. I'm focusing on Lachman 556 now to see how that Plat goes, but also trying to get a few Battle Rifles Golded as I didn't focus on them all that much other than the FTAC.

What's weird is, Pro Clubs could be monetized probably the most given how people would work together to see their club transform over time (and money). I'm not agreeing that i want to see it completely ripped apart but a customisation element that allows us to earn something, literally ANYTHING, in that gamemode rather than Volta or whatever else they have would be just nice to see right about now.

I know we shouldn't be ignorant to it all...but i can't help that its easier for my brain to cope with it that way. And @phil bottle is right, again. FFS 🤣

Wooah, hang on. Its not free to play anymore? Hmmm, strange. So it all just feels abit weird now because I was expecting at least some progression within Pro Clubs. Maybe they will, who knows, but as Phil says...its EA Sports innit 😅 That being said we desperately need a new football game to get into. With PES effectively gone, my hope is that UFL can get to market as quick as they can to help drive EA Sports to get behind this franchise like when they had to back in the 2010s as PES took over as the best playable football game for a while. Just expect some random teams not to appear now...as certain teams did sell their rights to games moving forward. Will be a little odd but I really REALLY hope they have some form of customisation mode in it like PES always had. I just want them to add some variety back into Pro Clubs tbh!

Here's Rob's last post when I tried to help him get back engaged with us all to inject some love into his life. 😔

We've received the tragic news that yesterday we lost one of our longstanding members from the early days, Rob McGee. Some would've known him by TheReverend or el Capitan. 💔 His Sister said that Rob passed away in Leeds general Infirmary yesterday after a sudden illness. He then went on to help 4 people live out their lives, let their families watch their loved one grow old and not experience this grief. Many wouldn't have known Rob recently but his last post shown that he was struggling hard with life - we also supported him through the Forever Gaming Feel Good Fund when he needed it most. He used to be extremely good at Call of Duty games and also played a lot with us on Destiny too. I kind of dreaded the day that we'd hear about someone we lost here. Rob was a great lad, Huddersfield football fan, we even spoke about watching our teams play when we got the chance, kicking myself that i should've arranged it sooner. Please leave any memories and wishes below - I'll gladly share it with the family at some stage. Rest in Peace, Rob. We'll have another Search and Destroy game in the next life mate ❤️

M4 is Platinum!! Woohoo!! Not sure how many I have now but its not many, probaly 4 or 5. Need to find another AR thats decent to use and I can get a few as I play. Any suggestions?

How on earth have we come full circle back round to an app that is essentially Facebook evolved when we all started to explore other apps when FB had some dubious questions over the years. Sod it, I never really did socials when I was younger, so lets get My Space back and go there.....OR.....lets just tell everyone FG, not FB, is the place to be for all the cool kids 😎

Been wanting to rewatch Eraser for years. Was a really good watch for an Arnie film. His top films were definitely around the late 80s, early 90s era.

This is the only real sad thing about this stuff. Clearly a decision early on in the development switched the game direction and most devs surely wouldn't have been happy releasing this game in the state it is in. Now they also get to lose their jobs on top of that. Super tough industry when decisions that impact the game probably happened 2-4 years ago.

@Riff Machine @Rumelylady You've done a great job getting this going you two (and Adrian!). You all seem to enjoy it and above all, thats the main thing. Happy 1st Anniversary!❤️

Thats the record...so now go and beat it @Macca89!

I saw that clip when it came out on Twitter as the voice actor for the main character is married to a Game Director at Bungie. It does look really cool, although I don't have much to add as I never played the other FF games outside of 7 and 8. I did play a little bit of a later one but they are just incomparable to these early games. Square Enix have done a top job of the 7 remake, that I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to look at another remake. However, it would be probably at least a decade away if not more considering how long its took just to get a remake of 7 done...and even that hasn't been the full game so far.

A bit late for early impressions but makes sense to still put my 2p as I think quite a few still haven't picked this up. I've really enjoyed my first dibs into this game. I similarly enjoyed D3 and it really does play virtually like that. Graphics are quality. Story seems to be more engaging than the previous one too. I think the hardest part to get around is all the upgrades and all the skill trees as to what they mean as there is so many. What feels better on this one is the 'admin' you have to do seems a lot less as its easy to compare what drops you get to what you pick up. I like you can easily highlight junk and all I've been doing is junking most of it rather than selling it - this seems to give some transmog options but not got to that just yet. I also like the idea that map is the same for everyone rather than procedural generated. The map is so big so going off to explore and find little side quests and dungeons seem more inviting than D3. Grouping has been pretty cool so far and being able to get 5 of us together is abit crazy fun. I still find this game abit less intense than FPS games like Destiny, so even though battles can look really cool, its also really hard to see whats actually going on...and I then look down to see me just spamming a certain number of buttons because it feels like the right thing to do. I want to keep playing it for sure, but definitely alongside other games. I'm not too concerned on the time it takes to move through it, as I think i'd be more worried that I wouldn't go back to it much once I blitz through the official Act/Story missions. Worth the money though as I sit here right now.

Have they finished DayZ 1 yet?! Just waiting for our resident DayZ qualified expert to chime in if this is accurate, good, bad or nothing of interest! @phil bottle

Great review @Luseth. What did you play it on? Just wondered if it was out for all platforms.

I really need to get a 3DS at some point, I miss out on a few games that they only made for that and not the DS. Also need a GBC too, just to feel how it plays and looks as opposed to the OG GameBoy. Great collection so far @Luseth!

I'll keep an eye on this but I know Brede said in his PPR that it needs a little bit of work. However, the look and feel of Bloodborne does it make get a little excited for it. I wonder how they gameplay differs from that?

Are they going for their own version of No Mans Sky or is it more closer to Star Citizen? I'm trying to understand the angle of what the game objective is and what we're expected to do in the game. Some bits look amazing, i'm not sure their gunplay will feel the best out there from what i've seen. Would love to know what others think that have followed this for a while.

I feel this a hell of a lot. Its like with most things, we can joke and a laugh but actually there's probably someone down the line that feels really crap about it. I can relate with that feeling John, I've actually started to wash my hair with less shampoo and other things like conditioners. Sometimes we forget there is so many things in those bottles that actually work against you, even if it makes your hair smell nice!

I've never really had time for these games but this does pretty decent I must say. I'm still not sure i'd pick it up unless it was on a large sale price but I still think it would be worth a try, if there was a demo perhaps. I think my lad would absolutely love it though.

Would love to see these in game. How often do the bike tyres spawn? And have they already confirmed if there is a bicycle tyre kit available in case you get a puncture?
