  1. I have never completed it and to be honest I have no idea why! Maybe I need to put it in the queue to actually finish!
  2. I would have said Forza but when I played the last one (my first experience of Forza) it felt a little overwhelming with races and events everywhere, that said the cars were great in it. I have been wanting a steering wheel recently and contemplating where to go with it. If you are happy to go a little bit older I think Test Drive unlimited was quite open for exploration and just going for a drive or I think I would second James with The Crew. If you wanted to go a little bit different play Red Dead redemption, get to the point where you get a horse and just potter around on a horse instead?
  3. Hey everyone, I know FG has been pretty quiet for a while, so I’m not sure how much traction this will get — but I’ve been feeling a bit nostalgic lately and thought it might be fun to start a series of threads revisiting some classic games from back in the day. First up: GTA Vice City — a game I’m pretty sure a lot of us here played and loved. I wanted to kick things off by sharing some of my own memories and inviting others to do the same. Whether you played it solo, with friends, family, or just have moments that stuck with you — missions, music, mayhem — I’d love to hear it. For me, one of the biggest standouts from that era of GTA was the soundtrack. The 80s music was just perfect — imagine cruising down the strip with Toto or Michael Jackson blasting on Flash FM. I honestly think if Rockstar ever remade Vice City (or folded the music into GTA VI), it’d hit hard with fans. The setting was on point too — that whole neon-drenched, Miami-inspired vibe. I still remember the first time I flew a helicopter in-game (pretty sure Vice City was the first GTA to have them?) — planting bombs in a construction site, then later storming Diaz’s mansion… total chaos. And of course, who could forget spawning a Rhino tank just to wreak havoc around town? Or the classic 80s fashion — Hawaiian shirts and pastel suits everywhere. I wasn’t around for the 80s, but between the music and style, this game made me wish I had been. (Still a big fan of 80s rock!) So yeah — anyone else feel like sharing some Vice City memories? Favorite missions, hilarious moments, radio stations, or just how it made you feel back then? Would love to read your takes.
  4. Another Monday, another night of clubs, last week oddly was hit and miss, we started ok then all went to pot midway through and then finished with 2 games that we were unfortunate to not win both! That said the play offs had just finished and we were in the mix with tougher opposition as well! Anyway lets get back to it this week and see if we can't get a few wins!
  5. It's a shame, I was going to pick this up but I suspect it was a case of being too ambitious with the budget they had available. They should have drawn some elements back and improved others so it was a bit more polished then you build upon the rest with game 2 if your first game goes well.
  6. Pro Clubs night, get your names down!

  8. So I had not planned to with selling the house currently but I generally can't resist a console launch. Got up launch day morning and thought I would have a look at the Argos near me, lo and behold they had some in stock so now I am a happy owner of a new console and the new mario kart. I have only briefly played it thus far and will give it some more time the weekend but initial thoughts. So the biggest thing I have noticed so far really is the quality of life improvements, this console is very much an improvement on the original Switch which in itself was a great console. The larger screen, the HDR, the joycons feel better build quality and the device itself feels more premium. Then the eshop works immensely better than it does on the OG, it was always my biggest gripe with the OG console and the lending of virtual games, I intend to package up my OLED and give it to the kids for Christmas this year. Setting up the family and being able to lend them games will be great, it suddenly gives them quite a large library of games to play straight off without faffing about so much with primary and secondary consoles and such. Mario Kart seemed fun as it always does, the open world aspect seems a bit of a bolt on rather than a key feature of the game which is surprising. I was expecting a more Forza type experience if I'm being honest. I have also continued my Pokemon playthrough on this and it is noticeably better in terms of performance and visuals. I think the big test for me is I am yet to play tears of the kingdom, I think I will pay the 7.99 upgrade and give that a go and see how it looks and how that performs over the weekend.
  9. Visually it looks brilliant, I just wonder how the series will cope moving onto a new protaginist. Though we know Ciri's story for some we have had 3 games of Geralt's character development and seeing a whole story arc go through it's motions. I think it will rest on the writer's somewhat who presumably have created a whole new story for the next chapter of the Witcher games. That said I will be diving right into this as the third game is still my favourite to date despite the clunky combat.
  10. Play offs are on at the moment, we are in division 2 so this is probably going to be tougher than usual (we generally finish div 3 or 4!) so bring your A game tonight and let's see how many wins we can get!
  11. I would like to get it but I think my issue is time as well, my weeknights are mostly filled up with one thing or other at the moment gaming with various people and this is one of those I have a feeling I would be playing on my own and I only get a night or 2 for that sort of gaming ^_^ Maybe pick it up but I don't know when and I will wait for initial reviews on launch.

    Unfortunately I had issues with my machine and lost the 2 weeks before this Monday just gone. I have updated with this week's stats though and just wanted to say well played all, there were some cracking results and 9-1 in a pro clubs match in Division 2 is not something we have done in a long while, well done on you all sitting forwards for that one!
  13. Bank holiday Monday, surely we can get a few of us? Time to get the club back to league 1 I think!
  14. I did not try it but a friend of mine did, he had glowing things to say about it. That said I don't know if some of the current hype may partly down to people's frustrations with Fifa (I will continue to call it so). To me this is a better version of Rush, Pro clubs is great because of the numbers we can include but when you only have 3 or 4 (5 in this instance) sometimes you want something simpler and this could give us that. I have every intention of picking this up, you can't buy many games at launch for only £20 and let's be honest we don't need a lot of game time on it to get our money's worth! I feel it could be the game to scratch the itch when we sometimes jump on, on a Sunday evening and things like that and we can keep our Monday's (or pick a new day) for our larger groups.
  15. Another Monday and another clubs session! It has been a bit hit and miss with a couple of Ad-hoc sessions recently but Monday's aren't just about Clubs! It's always good to have so many of us on for a bit of a chat and bit of banter and @LordBaguette's fart's (or maybe not) Get your names down! 🙂
  16. Just some goals from the last few pro clubs weeks
  17. Appreciate it's difficult as sometimes life get's in the way but I think there need's to be a conscious effort to get everyone on for this one ^_^ Been a shame last few sessions that we have not had a full group! Anyway's here's the next event, get your names down and let's go and kick our Scourge friend in the teeth!
  18. Pro clubs Monday night football event is now up. Be nice to try and get a full group on again as we have had some good turn outs the last few weeks and even more surprisingly results have been fairly decent which is always tricky with a large group! So well done all, let's keep it up!

    EA FC 25 2025 Stats

    Stats have been updated again, this includes stats from last week and the week a little while back that Ant noted down for me 🙂
  20. You are only allowed to play that class if you roleplay as such and create videos for all of FG to watch
  21. Definately a cash grab on people who have never bought into the Xbox ecosystem, can't see any other reason for it. The current remaster play's fairly well so I don't understand why you would pick this up unless you had just solely stayed on playstation. I do wonder if we may see this released on the Switch 2 as well?
  22. I have too many games to play at the moment unfortunately, this and Clair Obscur both got a little gametime but I have opted to complete games I have on the go currently before coming back to them. Both certainly hit the right spots though!
  23. I mean when you consider the reports of the RAGE engine it's meant to be better than Unreal 5 and Unreal 5 is pretty incredible so there is every possibility that yes it will ^_^ Even if it turn's out to be £100 I think I will be ok playing that pending reading a few reviews, when I consider how many hours I put into the last GTA and it would be a game I play for 5 years ish with online then it would still be fairly good value for money. I think that's how I need to start looking at games more to justify the price increases and actually think twice before buying games I'm not sure I will enjoy until they arrive on one of the subscription services or something.
  24. We did extremely well last week winning I think every game! Let's keep this going!
