Good choices, that said I think 10 still holds up fairly well today with the PS4 remaster ^_^ Have played it a couple of times since the original launch.

So, out of curiosity and with remakes and remasters being front and centre of most new releases. If you could have a true remake of any video game (and it has yet to be done) what would it be? There are 2 for me, Final Fantasy IX (and there are rumours of this) and Skull Caps, the latter being a strategy game that I loved for a spell when I was younger. It was simple and great fun to play!

To keep FG Friday's going, @Macca89 was keen for us to play Among Us the other week but I think it was a bit short notice. Let's see if we can get a few of us together for this one! Also, make sure to have some alcohol in the house as I imagine this game and alcohol go down well together! Don't forget the game is crossplay too so no excuse for anyone not on current gen!

This could be fun, I wonder if @GazzaGarratt could do this as a prediction league through the FG site as well? I think mine would be - Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League - 64 Foamstars - 72 Helldivers 2 - 86 - I think this will be a surprise hit Skull and Bones - 74 Final Fantasy VII Rebirth - 86 It will do well but I feel like the series is riding on it's highs of yesteryear still. Alone in the Dark - 68 Dragons Dogma 2 - 84 Princess Peach: Showtime - 88 (Again it will do well cuz nintendo fanboys I think) Rise of the Ronin - 78 South Park: Snow Day - 72 Black Myth: Wukong - 82 STALKER 2: Heart of Chernobyl - 80 Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 - 75 Star Wars Outlaws - 90 Little Nightmares 3 - 80 Avowed - 78 Towerborne - 76 Hellblade 2: Senuas Saga - 88 Indiana Jones - 78

@MrBiron if you plan an FG event or something I would be interested. I gave it a go with 2 friends last night and it's actually quite good fun, we even won a few matches as the night went on! I must admit, it is chaotic at times but it is great fun dropping bombs and such on buildings with enemy players in and just watching it collapse around them!

Just giving this a nudge as there are rumours swirling that Microsoft are looking to bring a few more games to Playstation and Switch, one of them being Sea of Thieves - Sea of Thieves coming to PS5 could bring everyone aboard WWW.TRUETROPHIES.COM Sea of Thieves PS5 rumors suggest Microsoft's pirate adventure might commandeer Sony consoles in a move that would benefit both... Be interesting if so, it would show Microsoft are moving away from a dedicated console I think with a focus more on the service side of things, does it lean in towards the cloud future in that they don't see the consoles being quite as important anymore as Sony still view them? And if it does come to PS, would it interest anyone here to pick it up? -
So I have gotten into putting a documentary on whilst working at the moment, typically around topics I have an interest in, the planet, climate change, science and tech. So I just thought I would see if anyone here watches any and even more specifically if anyone has any gaming related one's that they would recommend?

I put a sad face and 3 stars because your killstreak was good but the camping was dreadful, no wonder you and Mitch end up with great killstreaks! 🤣 -
Great video this one, some great goals as well. There are a few voices I can't hear though, think some people need to check their settings ^_^ -
So GTA V racing on a Friday night, I think I have only done this once or twice with you guys so here's a nudge to try and get people on board for another evening of this, 12th January seemed a bit soon so here's your week notice, let's see if we can get FG Friday's going again, see if we can get a few of us on for a few laughs and I would strongly recommend you have a beer in your hand!

So the past week or so I finally got around to watching this series, I loved the original trilogy and enjoyed the Hobbit trilogy and had this on my radar but it has taken me some time to get to it. Fantasy worlds are very much my think, I used to big into reading and have read books by David Eddings, David Gemmell, Christopher Paolini and Robert Jordan, all books set within Fantasy worlds and Lord of the Rings is of the same ilk. Watching The Rings of Power has reignited that a little bit and I picked up 'Murtagh' the other day by Christopher Paolini. The tv series is decent and in fact I think I enjoyed it more than the Hobbit Trilogy with the exception of the ending which felt lacklustre and felt it was not really conclusive. It is a tv series and there is a second season in the works so it sort of makes sense but I feel like big things like this need to be shorter rather than being drawn out, if I was to sit and read a book I can read it through to completion in one sitting if I really wanted to, it's generally the same with video games and I think recently I am beginning to lose some of my enthusiasm for all these TV series, it is a lot of time to invest in them at a point in my life where I have a lot of things vying for my attention.

So I want to get on with my backlog of games this year with the intention to pick some platinums up in them, my current choice is Cyberpunk, I had picked it up before and played part of the way through only to get sidetracked by new titles. So now with the plan for this year to avoid buying games brand new and waiting for inevitable price drops it might mean I am less likely to get sidetracked for the next month or so. So I may take a half step back from multiplayer (mainly COD) and crack on with this, so far it has been good fun and the PS5 enhancement has been great, you really feel the guns with the Haptic triggers and it really looks lovely, I'm having plenty of fun with this though I probably need to check for any missable trophies before I get too far into the game. Anyway, as I go through my backlog I will post on here a bit more to see if others have played them and how they got on with them, never know it might result in others going back.

I would have thought so, will tag @GazzaGarratt just to check.

I forgot about Avowed! I don't really understand the last of us 2 remaster though, can I ask what interests you about picking it up?

AI is something that is going to affect a lot of us and a lot of the jobs we do in the future, it just got me thinking of how many jobs are already being affected within the video game industry and if more measures should be brought in to combat or restrict some of it (for all roles and sectors) AI art has come a long way in the last couple of years, is there now any need for someone to sit there creating concept art or could the person with the idea for the game sit down and type a few words, hit refresh a couple of times until they get something they like? Similarly are we far away from say using Chat GPT from writing the story behind the next Fallout or Call of Duty games? I imagine they probably could do so already? But then if AI is taking away those roles and ultimately helping the cost of games or media to come down will that ever translate into the price we pay for content?

I don't know if anyone saw this the other day but a 13 year old lad has managed to make Tetris reach the kill screen on the original NES, this has only ever been done by ai machines before so for a human to do it is quite incredible. Not sure if any of you play Tetris very often but it can obviously get incredibly manic as the difficulty ramps up, if you get a moment have a nose at the video on youtube and take a look see just how quick his reactions had to be!

So with this new year I am thinking about my expenditure on video games, I am in a position in life where I feel I should have some actual savings, couple that with wanting to convert our garage and I am looking at where I can cut back some of my expenditure. One of those is gaming, I spend money on retro games, I like to buy games & consoles brand new and I also have the PS subscription. So my goals this year - - To not buy a single brand new game at full price - To limit my retro purchases each month - To not buy a single piece of hardware (with the exception of controllers / headsets should they fail on me) My question to you guy's is how much do you spend on this hobby, do y ou limit what you spend? Are you conscious of the amount you spend on a particular game and the time you spend with that game?

There are quite a few that I am interested in this year however I think I will have to be selective or wait for things to drop in price this year with everything that's going on at home, a few of the notable games for me - - Final Fantasy VII Rebirth - Stalker 2 - Star wars outlaws - Suikoden 1 & 2 remaster - Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2

Adverts starting on Amazon Prime Feb 5th
Luseth replied to GazzaGarratt's topic in Movies, TV & Music
I have cancelled my subscription and it comes to an end later this month, it's ok saying it's just £3 a month but multiply that by the current number of people that use it and that is a ridiculous amount of additional income, income that Bezos certainly does not need, think about how much money Amazon bring in do they really need it or is it profiteering and banking on people to be of the same opinion as you Lee? I think there is a reason why they have just said adverts so far as well, they are being quite clever I think in not revealing anymore than that, we don't know currently what form these adverts will take, whether or not they will be skippable and the length of them, if it's just typical adverts much like we would see on tv then the value of our traditional TV with BBC and ITV begin to look better value for money. I also think this is not about Amazon making better products as they are suggesting but recouping some of the losses they have made on some of the big tv shows such as the rings of power. I mean why isn't there an option to just have prime delivery, I only use the video and music because it is there but I would happily pay less and just have the delivery. In fact half the products you buy on there now are no longer 1 day delivery which was it's initial draw, the amazon prime subscription is being watered down more and more and I think the incredible value it started out being is no longer there.
