    Recommend me a good book.....

    If you’ve already read “With the Old Breed” then you might have already read this as well, but I’m on book 3 of the Ian Toll Pacific series and it’s really excellent.

    The Callisto Protocol

    Such a shame this seems like a bit of a mess. Not sure it's worth me trying to get around the ban to play it at the moment. If they fix all the stuttering etc, I'll give it a go next year sometime. I never actually played any of the Dead Space games, so at least it will be more of a fresh...

    A Plague Tale: Innocence

    Just finished this the other day. I went in knowing pretty much nothing about the story, having not played the first game. Overall I’d probably give it a 7 or 8 out of 10. The first few chapters were a little boring and I was worried the game would end without ever having really gripped me. I...

    The Callisto Protocol

    I’m in Japan. :( Will there be "ways" around this?

    Siliconslave's how to make espresso thread

    After finally resigning to the fact I won't be moving for another year and a half, I've gone ahead and bought a hand grinder. Went for the 1zpresso J-Max as I don't want to buy something cheaper that I'll just replace in the end anyway. Friend gave me an old Delonghi Dedica and I plan on buying...

    Laptop for Parents

    Hi fellas, My mother is looking to replace her laptop as it's nearly 11 years old, and I'm not sure the kitchen table can support it's weight too much longer. She really just does emails, browsing, word processing and some spreadsheets, so would be nice to have a good screen, but a lot of...

    Have you tried community servers? I don’t touch the DICE servers anymore as they’re riddled with cheaters, but the community ones tend to be much better.

    The Batman (Matt Reeves)

    This sums up my thoughts on it pretty well. I wouldn’t put it on the same level as TDK just because the last 1/3 dragged for me a bit. I felt like it could have wrapped up earlier. The first 1/2 to 2/3 was great though. I thought every scene was suspenseful rather than dragged out and the mood...

    This would be one of the easiest wins for them. I don't know anyone who likes the cutscene intros, the stupid catchphrases at the end. It flies in the face of the whole world they tried to build up during the lead up to the game. Honestly though, I just don't think they really care. I love the...

    Looks like they came out with some kind of roadmap announcement today, with the first season update being pushed back until early summer. To be honest none of it made it the least bit excited to go back to the game. I’ve been playing 5 again and it’s just light years ahead in every respect.

    Going back to BFV highlights the massive drop in graphics. I know BFV had it’s own controversy, which thankfully I missed as I didn’t end up playing it until early 2020, but it’s a solid game now. I’d genuinely swap 2042 for more BFV DLC at this point.

    Oh dude you’re telling me. That is definitely the most frustrating one. Then there’s not getting a grenade out when you press the button, or lag when scrolling through weapons. All maddening.

    I’ve given up on this for now. It’s just too clunky and the input lag on PC is infuriating

    The Matrix 4

    Cramming the film with awkward references to the original does not make it a love letter. If they actually cared about the original they wouldn’t have changed the style and completely dismantled the world they had created.

    The Matrix 4

    Wow this is so bad. I don’t think I’ve ever hated every single part of a movie as much as this. As far as I’m concerned the whole thing is a middle finger to fans of the first movie. Then seeing how many people on Reddit liked it (to be fair an equal amount hate it), is depressing as well. I...

    JackFrags did a video before 2042 released saying he was uninstalling BFV and that maybe he’d go back to it in a couple of years for nostalgia. Cut to two months after release, he’s back on BFV. Tells you all you need to know really. V is really a great game to be honest. Runs well, looks...

    *** The Official Battlefield 2042 thread***

    It definitely has potential and when things go right the game feels great. I don't really care about the specialists and all that crap apart from the cheesy lines they have. I also haven't had any problems differentiating friendly from enemy so far and I like the freedom choosing your own kit...

    Yeah the 2nd Shaw absolutely has to deal with. It looked as if DDG was not expecting Shaw to actually leave it.

    Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [5th - 7th November 2021]

    Can’t argue with Roy today. United are just woeful in every department. The players simply aren’t that good or must be shot of confidence because they panic as soon as they’re on the ball. AWB losing the ball and then sauntering back while City almost score their second was horrific.

    I think EA posted on Twitter that their doing "essential maintenance" on servers before the public access. Obviously the down time started half an hour ago when I got home and resumes again 10:00 Uk time. I'm enjoying it so far to be honest. I feel like everyone is just running around figuring...
