    Thinking of moving to Cyprus

    Everytime I consider moving back to the UK, friends and family jump on me with a plethora of reasons why I shouldnt return in the near future. I tend to come back to the UK every year, but as a tourist.......and as a tourist I love it.....however working and generally living? Doesnt sound...

    Fallout TV series being developed by Amazon

    Loving this show, only one episode in, but (for me ) they have 100% nailed the vibe I get when I play these games.

    What are the 30 year old plus gamers playing?

    2nd stint with Pathfinder : Kingmaker. Got about 80 hrs into it on my first attempt, then real life got in the way and I cant remember much of what was happening with my save, so fresh start as a Grenadier. Its great fun. ----------------------------- Also still pushing on with Apex Legends...

    Wilko goes into Administration

    Gutted to be honest, I used to work for them many years ago in a senior position at their head office, I was on first name terms with the family and whilst working for them I always felt a part of 'something'. My mother just retired in July after 39 years with them. It was a fantastic company...

    Red dead redemption

    Would normally instapurchase, but going to wait until Rockstar confirm what 'changes' (if there are any) are included with this re-release. My Series X upscales this already, so it would take 60fps for me to pull the trigger.......again.

    UK holidays

    I didn't ever appreciate how great the UK can be for a small break or a holiday until I became an expat. I suppose it was one of those things (when we lived there) where I always felt that I had time to see it or do it....but ultimately never did because work or life just got in the way. We...

    Star Wars Day in the US was intense!

    I was also there on that day! We have been in Orlando since April and we leave in June (our biennial 6 week trip). Hollywood Studios is great and personally my favorite Disneyworld park....and 'Galaxy's Edge' is immense.

    What country would you move to, if you had the opportunity?

    What was supposed to be a 3 year 'project' has now grown to 8 years of living pretty much full time in India. The ongoing issues back home continue to spell it out to me that I have little to no intention of coming back anytime soon.

    I have got this for the Ps5 already, but do I 'double dip', that's the question.

    Your PC gaming history?

    So my first 'gaming' PC I purchased was in 1995/96 (I used the word 'gaming' loosely because back in the days of zero 3d acceleration it was all based on the grunt of your CPU). From a retailer called 'Escom' who seemed to purchase or lease all of the Rumbelows real estate when they went bust...

    Recommendation : Wireless Headset - Multiple Devices

    My main display is an LC C2 OLED, and off this I run my Gaming PC, PS5, Xbox Series X and my Switch. Up until recently I have usually used a wired razer headset (tiamat) for my PC and then everything else through my OLED's speakers. However what I am looking for is a high quality headset that...

    Playing games fulltime - how long for?

    During my Everquest days when I was unemployed, I would rack up 15 to 16 hours a day easily on it. This was on my old 56k modem with the ISP LineOne (they had a 2 hour cut off, so you effectively had to cut your connection and dial back in). The phone line in my house was constantly engaged...

    Football Banter Thread

    Just landed back from a five day trip to Qatar. Where we saw the England , Argentina and France games. We were staying in one of the 'clusters' located about 30 mins outside Doha, and they were pretty basic. Two beds, one wardrobe, toilet and a shower with a communal kitchen shared between four...
