  1. Good start for the thread Bart. I'll add to this abit about my son to add more context for the thread. Dax is 6. We managed to get an early diagnosis when he was 2. Its not rare but uncommon at early ages to get diagnosed but we noticed how he was with interaction early doors, his repetition on lots pf generic traits for autism such as lining up cars, trains, night terrors, etc. We wanted the 'label' because we believe that to get help you need confirmation. By getting a diagnosis it relaxed us as we thought we could get help. Dax seems to want to do the things that will cause most anxiety. His complexity means he does want to interact but he pretty much needs to be the leader. And his rules. Number 1 in the queue. Eveything, and i mean pretty muxh everything you say or do should be tailored to him e.g. learning, activities, eating. He has an awful diet- bread and butter sandwiches for breakfast, lunch, dinner. Eats a few bananas, the odd apple and specific chocolate. Thats one of the hardest things to break/get him comfortable with new food. He did have night terrors alot buy that has decreased. He is on melotonin though cos usually if he is tired we notice his behaviour dips at school. He isn't in any way a violent aggressive person. However he instantly reacts as he doesn't connect with emotions. And these reactions can be aggressive. He knows what to say and do afterwards - say sorry. Cos thats literal. But he won't retain the trait of not doing it again, like climbing the dinner tables at school. Family mostly don't get it. They're supportive but for a long time didn't get you don't just get 'cured'. What to say, what to do is important. You jave to be on it, or he could react, run away, get anxious, hit himself, throw his glasses, etc. I can add more when i have time but ask away. Oh, and he's going to a Special needs school in Sept as they haven't got the resources at his primary school to give him the support he needs. Always down to money in the end.
  2. Nope. It's one expense that I don't like the idea of when I don't get a huge benefit out of it.
  3. Same here matey, we need to get bigger hard drives. [emoji20] These deletions/ re-installations are killing me.
  4. Awwww, come ooooooooonnnnn Bart. Come bring your punch-bro and have some fun!
  5. Shiiiiiiit, I didn't realise the latest update brought back drag racing! Would yoi say it's close to the old underground drag racing?
  6. Not sure we're gonna see the real discussion in end game groups just yet. I would say that i only run health box on my own because usually 1 or 2 have it on.The super i use is the Tech one that increases damage and crit damage to all allies. You can't go wrong with the turret, although the sticky bomb is great to watch as it scurries away after the hapless enemies.
  7. I need to buy it first! I'll see if my local Argos has it in stock.
  8. Ah, okay mate. Didn't realise there was a demo out. I'll have a look myself. £30 sounds like a lot for a pretty basic game on the face of it!
  9. I wondered what they'd do next. Great addition to a straightforward addictive game.
  10. So, how was the beta Phil?
  11. Yeah, its lower. But it sounds great and its like Chris and his Tigers really. [emoji16] In all seriousness its one of the worlds hardest and demanding leagues. I read a few years back the most followed/watched leagues in the world were: 1. Premiership 2. Championship 3. La Liga
  12. No No Yes YesAnd Rob, if you support Liverpool I'll disown you. Seriously. The only reason Jordie gets away with it is he supported them before i met him and he's a super cool guy [emoji41] Go for a team like Spurs or Arsenal (wait for Phil to explode at me). They play good football, decent history, won't win all the time but still up there and they're both not fecking annoying....much. Other than that, fancy a Championship club like Blackburn Rovers?? [emoji16] [emoji16] [emoji16] Premier League winners once (back in the distance past somewhere) and has one of the best youth set ups in the land. Not many of us too so you wouldn't be a glory fan then [emoji6]
  13. Its a decent solid game that you will get your money's worth. It isn't a masterpiece and won't be played forever due to the lack of variance in missions/encounters but there will still be some good link up play on the harder, challenging missions.

    Doom 4

    Loved Doom 3 and its co-op mode. As Bart says, pretty basic but gets the fundamental FPS stuff nailed on. MP looks like it will be cool too. It would actually be great fun to make a Doom FG Map for all. Oh, and beta starts 1st April. I got a code with Wolfenstein - you'll probably be able to find others somewhere online.
  15. Gutted. [emoji20] Magical legend when i grew up watching telly on the weekend. Apart from Dynamo you just don't see them around theae days. A bit of light magic entertainment is always a good relaxing evening whilst saying 'i know how he did that' [emoji6]
  16. Wowser. These are epic.
  17. Cool stuff Rob! I'll have a look at ordering a copy shortly.
  18. One of those flips is insane! What fascinates me is how many people attend these random events. It's packed.
  19. Really enjoyable movie. My son loved it and the Sloths is the best bit by far!
  20. Its a real shame. Obviously feels like they've paid the ultimate cost with the release of DriveClub. Gutting for them really as if they released it now it would be the number 1 driving game.
  21. This is on the waiting list with Doom for me. Rob, get it for PS4. Please [emoji16]
  22. I'm on your wavelength Nev. It's different, but has similar traits. The lack of variance just makes the game an enjoyable good but not great game. I felt it would be like this before buying, however i think because so many FGers made the jump, it's made it a more enjoyable game for this reason. No other reason for me.
  23. Ha! WHAM-O! [emoji38] Great idea Rob. Hope to see more obscurity soon.
  24. I genuinely would love to own a pair of Astros but if I can buy 4 to 5 AAA titles for the same amount i just can't justify it. Not yet anyhow. My official Sony do the job amd they seem pretty decent on battery life still too. Is there masses of difference between A40s and A50s?
  25. Agreed Phil, such an immense squad. To have a turn named after you is fitting to the great man.And God bless Harry Kane reminding us recently how it can change a game.
