  1. Yeah @Venom , on that run we didn't get the 'chasing bomb' option as it was always the Oryx teleport bubble. Although now you should have to keep running anywhere to stop the bombs from hitting you. Running straight up and down is the easiest way. I think D1 it was more organisation as people were so worried that their bomb would hit someone else so people would run around the circles as it was the easiest way to explain it! Funny how we did stuff back in the day now we look back at it. And thank god for mantle in D2. I don't know how we ever existed to play on D1 without that.
  2. I just can't work it out. Right now, just churning out the previous PES version would've been next to no cost for them and then they would've received a ton of money for it, plus staying relevant in the football gaming industry. Why would you throw away all that coding, hard work and multi-functioning parts of a really solid game because later PES games are still solid....for something that resembles the equivalent to a PS1 Demo? Mind is blown.
  3. FG, of course 😎😄 Tbh, I used to have an awesome Game News App that updated instantly across the world and it helped me understand quickly what was going on and then share it on FG to help discussions here more so. Now, even though it really isn't the nicest place to visit after 5 minutes, its Twitter. Twitter is literally the quickest place you can find info about anything that is leaking or being shared. I only look out for stuff so I can post here though. Some like using Reddit and I get that as the sheer numbers mean its there. I personally do not like that place one bit. I don't understand how to find stuff and then read convos on it, although I have seen a few things on there to grab and bring the content here as I'd rather hear about what FGers views are than anything on there.
  4. Have we seen any new ropadmaps or future significant updates to come to it? I need to check on the other football game too to see where thats heading.
  5. Couldn't agree more with this. Its like they've had a second go at making it better and they really nailed it with this one. It is so much fun to run through. Laughing at people screwing up the jumping puzzle is still there too. The other raid encounters also feel pretty decent to run. You do have to work hard to get Warpriest done but I remember we used to get stuck at that part before and it co-ordination of a 6 player team is needed, which is the whole point of a raid. The armour for the Titan still looks badass. I was lucky to get all armour apart from the Class Item dishcloth.
  6. Morning all! We're in need of reviewing all the servers we have so far and what we'd all love to have as a community moving forward into 2023 (yep, we really are nearly there which is scary to say!). You'll see we already made some steps to start a new section for Servers accessible from the FG Homepage which is the beginning of our Servers journey. As a commitment this year, I wanted to make sure we had our very own collective spaces we can try and share some fun together on and bring more of the FG family together. So far, the following servers are currently around for FGs spontaneous gaming delights: PC - DayZ Vanilla PS4 - DayZ PC - 7 Days Modded (Cars and UI) PC - 7 Days Vanilla PC - Valheim Vanilla PC - Minecraft Modded (Quests) ALL - Minecraft Realm I'd like to keep some of these, but equally like some more. At the same time we should be clear on using money in the right places as they all don't pay for themselves. Whatever we end up with, we'll do more events and meet-ups for everyone so I'd hope to see more of us try and get on wherever possible and get interacting on them. So, whats your thoughts? Keep, Remove, Add, Other Games, Other consoles, Modded ones? Let's get your feedback everybody!
  7. Welcome Kieran! @Chocolateboy Sounds like if you like Dirt Rally you must nearing a copy of Gran Turismo 7 on the horizon then?? 😎 Have you tried giving the PS4 abit of a spray with an air can? It might make it sound more like a Chopper rather than Airplane which may help with a few decibels. Take a look around and see what interests you, we have loads of stuff going on all the time so hopefully see you online too at some stage. Hope you enjoy your stay at FG Kieran 😄
  8. Happy birthday Bones!! @slamminbones Hope you have a cracking day bud 😎❤️💃
  9. Sounds like they all need the same lovely home called FG like you've now got 😎 In all seriousness, more people around to play these games with others will make it more enjoyable for the future. I definitely intend to come back to it for sure, but would rather go around in a squad. @phil bottle can you just set it on the new maps or are they just in the rotation with the rest of them?
  10. I think some games have taken the opportiunity to update graphics too, like Rocket League. Definitely a good thing, cheers for sharing @James
  11. Don't look at it as committing to the races every single week. I see it more as if you can come whenever you're around it will be good to see you as we'll have quite alot of drivers on the track to have fun against 👍 I don't anyone that can't commit to every week to then not come at all. We should all try and come whenever we can which will give the best chance of having as close to a full grid on as we can, which is always when its the most fun.
  12. I'm sharing, because I think its right to pay our respects where possible. I know that all in the world (and in FG) may not share the same beliefs, opinions, feelings on many things in life and The Queen may be one of those. Right now, all I feel is that its respectful enough for me to say, Thank You and Rest In Peace. ❤️
  13. I've been warmning people up online about starting in October again so this sounds good to me too @phil bottle 😎 We'e got a few more with the game now but i'd like it if we had some more people in and around it too. @Greboth, whats the chances of bringing across some of the friendly ones at OcUK? Timing wise we may need to think about either having race nights every other week or at least splitting the day week by week I think as a trial. Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays work well but it will also come against other game nights that could pull a bunch out. @JBR-Kiwi @Teenwolf25 @TurboR56Mini @Capn_Underpants you all in yeah? Need to get the others from past years too in on the act! The only lasting thought on top of all this was also some kind of weekly or monthly challenge like a time trial with certain cars perhaps? Just thinking when some can't make the races but want to work towards something together with us all, it could be a nice thing to have running alongside the races?
  14. Jesus, my heart is already clogging up thinking about it! You got pics? Sounds amazing.
  15. That poor guy lost an eye and didn't even see it coming! 👀🤣
  16. Well, hello there! 😄 It has definitely been far too long for an update that always tries to deliver a Feel Good smile. In all honesty I did intend to do this post a few weeks ago, but time got the better of me before my holiday. Nevertheless, quite a few people have started to receive a few things in the past few months and i'll try and least some of them below so we can all see how we're helping each other with the FGFGF. Connor @JamaicanSteve has had a right ol' challenge in getting into more games, especially whilst he's been trying to find a job for a while, so we're happy that a copy of MW2019 was sent across to him to keep his spirits up and hopefully turned the corner with the job front too! 😄 . Whilst we're on the MW2019 revival across FG as we wait for the new one in October it was time that Gary @techno and Martin @Findmartin enjoyed a copy of MW2019 too to help them get involved in more gaming nights with everyone. Feel Good moments are always good when you can give gifts people unexpectedly and these two definitely deserve some Feel Good lifting too. That being said, Jordie @jordie1892 has been a class act supporting FIFA nights and helping with tournaments along the way. All the while having to deal with job interviews in a stressful place. A game he's always wanted to try was The Hunt: Showdown and now he can with a copy going to him 😄 Nick @Bluebear has been a fantastic FGer over the years and has always been trying to support the Destiny nights when he can. He's never received something from the FGFGF and its about time he did. So he can enjoy some more FG gaming nights, he's now the proud owner of Gran Turismo 7. Staying with the racing, I know since the new baby that Jason @JBR-Kiwi has had it not always his way so I'm pleased to say that he has also received a fine copy of GT7. I hope its well received and gives FG plenty more drivers to anger Greebs on the racetrack 😅 You might've also noticed that we have a certain, record breaking FG meet up In November (if you haven't, then you really need to get your name down here. Its absolutely incredible to think we're going to be getting some of the American FGers over, and we're super grateful they're coming. So much so, we're making sure they don't have to pay accommodation costs at all and if we can help with the travelling, then that's what we're going to do with @Misneach_ , @TurboR56Mini and @RenFengge. To help another American with an FG Feel Good smile, Hector @Horrible_Hector has received a voucher to get the Cult of the Lamb, something that will hopefully be right up his street. Times can be difficult whether we know it or not and I hope these little moments can keep the spirits up through the hard times. @Leeesh13 finally received his FG award, only 4-5 months later than expected due to South African postal services! But what he wasn't expecting was a special FG mug with it to keep him topped up with the gaming juices he needs to have more gaming nights with FG. To round off the little gifts from the summer months, Harold @Spacedeck has been doing his best helping others with PCs and to aide his challenges at home, especially with his space and organisation, we've managed to send him an awesome Nintendo Switch Cube storage box. We hope we can do more things like this in the coming months too as there's lots of ways we can help give people that Feel Good feeling. With all of this going on, we have more to help, more to try and find ways to give that FG Feel Good factor out so watch this space. We'll also likely try and do a monthly raffle for the rest of 2022 with vouchers for the rest of the year if the FGFGF pot allows us to do so. A huge THANK YOU for the few FGers out there helping out with an FG membership that is an amazingly easy way for us to keep finding ways to help more FGers - If you want to help other FGers Feeling Good via the FGFGF on a regular basis moving forward, please check them out here.

  17. Happy birthday to our US veterans!! Chip for yesterday @warsaint98 and good ol' Chris for today!! @TigerBurge . Enjoy the football/egg chasing with some beers mate 😎❤️
  18. Hmmm, storage is really a personal thing so it depends on the aesthetic you want to end up at the end too. Saving space wise, are we talking getting rid of the cases @Spacedeck ? If so, I think you start off with the hard case storage options like below off Amazon. Stores 96 DVDs/CDs and you can choose nice vibrant colours to separate perhaps games from different consoles, etc. CD Hard Case - Multiple Colours at £11.99 from Amazon If you have something like this then its just finding some nice cabinets to either show them off or not as the case may be. Do you want to show you have them or is just storing them the main thing? The manuals could follow a similar design if you want with this colourful file organiser. Would easily fit a ton of manual in it. File Organiser at £11.92 from Amazon Personally, I think you could go for a mix and match approach if most have to be in storage due to space, I think a cool feature is to have 'featured games' out on display. On Etsy, you can find people making multiple designs where it will hold a cartridge or game on show and this could be something that you can interchange over time. Personally this is why i keep game cases and I'm looking into making bespoke ones for games that I don't keep the cardboard boxes for (Gameboy, Game Gear, N64, etc), although they need more space which may not help you in this regard. An example is below (there's more from the UK with cheaper delivery) Cdmount™ CD License Plate and 8 Track Wall Frame Display & - Etsy UK WWW.ETSY.COM This Display Cases & Cabinets item by CollectorMount has 1077 favorites from Etsy shoppers. Ships from United States. Listed on 31 Aug, 2022 Pictures of each below: Gives us more details on what matters to you and maybe we can bounce some ideas around that's nearer to your interests.
  19. Finally back buttons on an official controller from Sony. I'll wait to see how much these are before committing as it feels like its going to be a heavy price for a controller looking at it. Does look great though.
  20. (Moved to the retro section as it felt a better fit) Tbh, the first one I loved was Wrestlemania on the Mega Drive. I absolutely loved it for the Ultimate Warrior. One of my school mates was amazing at Smackdown so I used to watch some gameplay of his but I was never really any good at the later games unfortunately. I did enjoy how fleshed out Smackdown was though. Lots of things to do on it.
    Excellent little clip. Liked the triple nade kill alongside the movement into specific spots to keep them off the point.

Others  - Various other issues have been addressed.
  22. Ahhh damn, not had one of them in ages. Now I want it for breakfast dammit.
  23. Yes at some point @Ajay . I'll be getting back into now the season is out and the only gaming thing I did do on holiday was watch the Bungie stream so it pumped me up for some more Destineeeeeee after a nice break from it.
