Re: The spam bots

OK, they stuck in force today whilst I was in London. Must of known I was out.

I've switched the board over to admin approval on registration and will look at some other anti spam measures.

If you see any report them.

Re: Snow Runner

I could see this being something I could really enjoy actually. Think if it was game pass or a trial version I'd definitely give it a go.

Dirt 5

https://youtu.be/BPLvzu8XNh0 https://youtu.be/mmJpsQ08BoE First Third Party Series X gameplay. (some screen tearing down to capture cards not being up to the task). 3 game modes: Image Quality/Framerate/120hz Which I think is going to be a relatively standard thing going forward. Looking good for a...

How do you prefer to play? Single Player/Mutiplayer/MMO/GaaS

So as I've aged I'm finding the way I play changing. I used to be all about the online shooter, from Quake Arena through to CoD:MW I would be that guy who didn't even touch the single player campaign. But now, I think just can't stand multiplayer and I'm all about single player and story. Multiplaye...

Re: The big Coronavirus (COVID-19) thread

No, I'll keep it up. As you said it's good to have it all in one place. People need a place to vent.

But yeah, a new lockdown around November 10-11th wouldn't be too much of a problem for a few of us around here.

Re: The big Coronavirus (COVID-19) thread

You know what, I was thinking about what to do when someone starts a Covid thread. I'm half in the mind to just ban/lock it, because at this point who's not sick of all the covid talk? We've all done pretty much fuck all interesting for 6-9 months, other than the weather this is the only thing we've...

Re: PS5 games in 2020

Totally, its such a huge investment to make a game you can't ignore the existing market. With the XBX and Pro too it kind of set the trend that (like in PC games) you have to make a game that scale to the hardware. Sure they'll be a few exclusive next-gen things and indies, but you won't see loads u...

Re: PS5 - Sony's big boy

I know the design is a bit marmite, but I think it's an absolutely gorgeous console. I'm the otherside, I'm glad I wait to the end of the generation to get a playstation as I think it looks super ugly. Black and white, blue LEDs? It's going to just be such a big distraction. the XSX seems so much m...

Re: What you currently playing

I’m in that place where I don’t want to start anything new because I know next month it will look and run a lot better, so I’m playing stuff that doesn’t get much improvement on Xbox or games on PS4/Switch. Exactly where I am. So I suppose mainly https://www.geoguessr.com For those who don't know, ...
