    Greatest game trailers?

    The Gears of War trailer was my first thought. I'm not sure what was so special about it but it made me want the game straight away

    I loved the TV show style whenever you retrurned to play this game "Previously on Hardline!" I'll never understand the hate this game got from people, I loved the whole copos and robbers vibe to it. Currently been plyaing Sonic Generations via Xbox backwards compatibility, despite playing this...

    What Retro Games Are You Currently Playing?

    Just finished yet another play through of Goldeneye on 00 Agent difficulty via the recentish Xbox release of the game. Modern controls definitely make the game easier especially if you set the dpad for movement so you can speed strafe properly

    As vague as this sounds (as it was a while back I finished it) be sure to finish the side quests in the more open world sections, the reward is worth it if you are a completionist. It really is a great game. Makes me think, I need to pick a vita up at some point to play the Uncharted title on it.

    The last game you completed, and rating (Console Edition)

    I've recently finished the Mario RPG remake on the switch. What a fantastic remake it is too! It's definitely easier than the SNES original due to a few very welcome quality of life improvements although I will say the final final boss was a fun change from this and needed a bit of strategy to...

    Jury Service (Do NOT turn this into a 'how to get out of jury service' thread)

    I've just finished my first week of Jury Service, the week mostly consisted of being told to be there for X time and then nothing to happen for another 3 hours or in the case of one day, sit round all day waiting and then sent home. It's definitely been an interesting experience so far but...

    Vince's Ebay Repair Thread - (Console Repairs & Mods)

    Meh if they ponied up for a modded GG and use cheap batteries then I'll just take it off them then as they clearly don't appreciate it :p jk I used to be terrible for that when I got a Game Gear back in the day, I'd use cheap cheap batteries and moan that it doesn't last 10 mins lol

    PlayStation VR / VR2

    Yeah I'm starting to get that vibe too :( I've only recently joined the PSVR2 ranks so I'll be gutted if this happens. I guess if you want a positive spin, could it be that Sony are opening it up to PC to potentially entice PC Devs to port to PS5?

    Facebook bargain of the year?

    That's a good haul! I used to have Doom 2 in its original big box floppy glory but I don't have a clue what happened to it :(

    What retro things have you done today?

    I've not used Windows 2000 since college! Might have to give it a shot

    What retro things have you done today?

    I do agree regarding XP but it's what the machine originally came with so I went with that :) i've got way too many spare IDE and SATA drives lying around so i'll try and set up a 98 build on that. The system has a E6600 in at the moment but runs at 2ghz due to chipset limitations. I think...

    What retro things have you done today?

    Whilst not retro in the sense of what some of you are doing PC wise, I've had an old Optiplex 320 lingering around for a while so i've got it setup for some early xp gaming. I just need to try and find a black floppy drive now to mount in it for no reason other than aesthetics and to hear it at...

    PlayStation VR / VR2

    I wanted to do a second playthrough when i got my PS5 but as silly as this sounds I couldn't be bothered with re-wiring my TV setup to include the VR unit... I hope Sony does seriously look at porting it to PSVR2 and Wipeout too

    PlayStation VR / VR2

    The original set is defintely still worth picking up if you've not dabbled with VR for years, it's got a lot of quality titles many of which are locked the the PSVR 1 headset Pistol Whipped is fantastic, I like to think of it as a rhythm game John Wick simulator, it's a good workout too...
