[Fallout - TV Series]

Just finished it tonight and have to say even though for much of the series I had no clue what was going on I enjoyed it overall. I thought it started well went off the rails in the middle a little but the series was rounded off nicely. 

Definitely made a nice change to see something different as I've watched some crap lately *Gray*.

 

I will leave this here though, it's quite long but an interesting discussion, maybe not knowing much about the lore helped? 

Now I get some of the arguments against it but at the end of the day it's TV and tbh all TV suffers in a similar way imo. 

[Modern Warfare III]

Tbh since getting interstellar I found I've little to no reason to turn the game on, there maybe some interest in any fg Friday that might occur however it's not just cod where gaming is concerned at the moment which might be down to the fact the winter should be over.

I've managed to watch 4 episodes. I wanted to watch a few before passing judgment. I didn't know what to expect but it's excellent.

 

I was worried to begin with that it might be a bit tame and I might find the characters annoying but no, it's gory, brutal, funny and I think they cast it very well, so yeah overall very happy so far.

Gory, brutal and funny definitely gonna check it out. Also hearing that you don't need to have played the games to enjoy it also helps. 

[Into The Light - Free Update - Destiny 2]

With Final Shape being delayed, Bungie promised some bits to keep players engaged. I think they've done a decent job looking at what seems available:

 

 

Here's the trailer:

 

 

Some thoughts

• Finally added some form of a horde mode, called Onslaught. 50 levels. Different difficulties.
• 12 weapons, removed because of gamebreaking elements, now back in the game. Updated and enhanced.
• 2 exotic missions. Whisper and Zero Hour. Probably 2 of the best missions we've ever had.
• Raid Gauntlet Boss new activity. I think if this works, this will hit fantastically hard.

 

There seems more but those were the key parts for me. Most people are saying PvP will be broken as hell, but I think we were already there anyway with that lol.

 

For free for the 2 months ahead of the Final Shape, it seems like a great update to me. Any thoughts?

Might find a reason to turn destiny on again just to take a look.🤷

I watched it a few days ago too and honestly its a run of the mill, easy watching, action film. Nothing too crazy, although McGregor in parts is hilarious so its worth 6-7 out of 10. Never watched the original, probably should now but I enjoyed this one nonetheless.

Watch the original to see how bad this new one is😁

Yeah not watched the original but may try to find it on a streaming service. Also just watched the gentlemen series on Netflix and thought it was very good, glad they didn’t try to carry it on from the film but have adapted it to be based on that sort of world. 

Both are on Amazon.

So I finally watched the beekeeper, now it's a Statham film so you know what your getting but for me that's fine as I like his stuff and it's pure brain out entertainment.

I also watched, back to back the new road house and the original. Now for me it's the original hands down but I have to say the remake wasn't as bad as I expected if you can get past Jake Gyllenhal fighting Connor McGregor 🤔 however not sure we should see McGregor acting again either 😉. However not a waste of 2 hours.

Is it just me that really likes the new maps in this game? Greece isn't brilliant but the other ones are pretty decent. Even the new Stash House map isn't too bad and I normally hate tiny maps. They're much better than shit like Black Gold or that bloody Lighthouse map from MW2.

Id have to agree, however stash house is maybe even more chaotic than shipment.

Do not watch Leave The World Behind on Netflix.  It pulls you in early, makes you think there's going to be some good story here, and then absolutely nothing happens.  Its dumb as fuck.

 

The new Mission Impossible is fantastic.  Free Solo about Alex Honnold is also a 100% watch

Free solo is excellent 👍

So I watched Ferrari last night, I knew nothing about it going in and didn't know it's based on a true story. 

Tbh it wasn't that good, all the racing scenes seemed like bad CGI  especially the crash scene then the bits about his life was just dull. 

This was no le mans 66.

[YouTube Recommendations]

Came across this guy and have been watching loads of his stuff, I just love his presenting style and he certainly seems to know what he's talking about. He's definitely a big fan of Elon 😂

 

[Last movie you watched]

Watched Napoleon at the weekend, I was going to see it at the cinema but after watching critical drinkers review decided not to. This turned out to be the correct decision as in some parts I was just bored. I'd have preferred more of his campaigns etc and less Josephine bull shit.

[Adverts starting on Amazon Prime Feb 5th]

Can't imagine why people use "dodgy" boxes.

This streaming/subscription thing has got out of hand. 

However there will be enough people out there who justify it by saying it's one less coffee a month to cover Amy losses from people cancelling.

Just got a new phone which has more memory than my old one so I thought I'd try the FG app...

Very impressed, smooth to use, clean.. well done to all involved 👍

It's all I ever use.

[Gaming on a budget]

I got drunk and spent over 2k on a pc etc one Friday night so I'm not the best comment on gaming expenditure. However I don't buy many games at all tbh and never really have.

Why would that make you happy?

Had a feeling I might get that question but it's nothing more than a figure of speech in this case. 

[What are your top 3 movies of all time?]

I'm surprised not to see many marvel films mentioned here.

 

I'm happy however to say I've never watched a single harry potter film😁

Congrats Gary, I'm still doing golds and forged ones. 

 

Was doing the Sidewinder recently, still not gold. 

Probably the worst gun in the game, the stinger Pistol is a bit rubbish as well. 

 

How much gametime did it take you Gary? 

Honestly no idea I never look at game time deliberately so what I have seen has mw2 time included. However I did grind the shit out of it over the extremely wet holiday period.

I think I did priceless to interstellar over 2 sessions and in most cases priceless was easier than forged.

Whaaaa?! Is that the ultimate final skin Gaz?? @techno

 

Fair play mate, thats class going on that. I wonder how easy it is to work towards others at all? Are there unique challenges you can do for more camos and calling cards?

Yep final skin, there is others I need to do if I can be bothered but there will be the new weapons in the seasons.

 

I will do the emp gun when/if they fix it.

Yeah there is definitely a pair of boots that help. Not got there yet, but heard it helps. 

 

Fair play Gary, sounds like your almost done. 🙂

You have to use the boots or you can't do it as it goes into tac stance when you slide, the boots make it ads

RAM-7 Forged camo challenge is bugged. It's aiming down sight while sliding. Just a heads up if anyone is camo grinding.

You have to use a certain type of boots..

 

I've just finished sorry forged the battle rifles, marksman rifles pistols and the emp gun oh and the bruen so that's 36 that's needed.

 

Priceless ready to start. 😳

I kind of get what you mean @Middle Class Caveman, the open world is incredible large, and in fairness, requested by public demand. I think that works fantastically well for GTA Online. Campaign wise I kind of got bored after a few missions and wanted to go off-piste with mates. The Heists they created in GTA5 were class and hope more of that formula will exist moving forward. Lets hope Online mode will be released at launch and not just the campaign in Q1 2025.

I also understand what Elliot says, for me the best is still vice city stories for both size and campaign. I think as you say the map has to be huge to facilitate online and as far as I'm concerned they could dump online in the bin. Only really use it for our races.
