Re: Whatcha Been Watching?
Went to see the film Pig over the weekend, it’s the best film I’ve seen for a number of years. It stars Nicolas Cage and sounds like a John Wick rip off but it really isn’t as it’s more a drama than action film. Probably my favourite Cage film. Highly recommended

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
I’ve added this to my steam wishlist. I’ve seen a couple of people say it’s GOTY but no one seems to be talking about it.

Re: The Sony news and discussion thread
I was mostly impressed, I didn’t know why they felt the need to show Deathloop again when it’s been shown to death at various shows at this point and is out in a few days anyway. My highlights were Spider-Man 2, Gran Turismo 7 and even though it was just a tease, I’m happy to know a Wolverine game i...

Re: Let's rank our top 5 Pixar films for no reason at all
What disappointed me most other than there being too many new characters in Toy Story 4 was I just didn’t think it was very funny, it wasn’t an age thing as I can still laugh at the previous films today. I can only think of one scene which raised a slight chuckle and that was one with Key and Peele....

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
I finally got around to Enslaved: Odyssey to the West . I'm amazed by some of the very good reviews this game got. Not to say it's bad, it's just painfully average and incredibly shallow. And doesn't stop holding your hand. I also hate games that find a reason to kill you when you want to explore. ...

Finished the BBC drama Time. Excellent show but quite disturbing too.

Re: Whatcha Been Watching?
Went to see Old yesterday at the cinema as my first trip back. Despite some annoying characters and slight plot holes I enjoyed it. Horror but not too scary or gory with the exception of one scene. It kept me thoroughly engaged throughout and I really liked the thought provoking reason behind what w...

Re: Whatcha Been Watching?
I’m no horror aficionado but my one recommendation for horror but not too scary, more unsettling would be Get Out. I’m a huge fan of that film. I also enjoyed Jordan Peeles follow up Us but not as much as Get Out

Re: Videogame News
Trying to get one was a bit of a farce yesterday. I was out so had to try on my phone but to no success. As soon as I got home and tried on my PC via steam it worked first time, have to wait till Q2 2022 though.

Re: The Euro 2020 Thread
It was certainly the best England performance I can remember seeing in my lifetime, maybe England 5-1 Germany but that wasn’t in a major tournament, so the best I’ve seen in a major tournament. You can really see them growing into the tournament now and their confidence increasing. Interesting stat,...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
I’ve been playing Mario Golf Super Rush and to me it seems pretty fun. I’m quite early on but I like the core golfing mechanics and the Mario spin on some of the courses with obstacles they introduce. Only thing I’m undecided on yet is the whole running between courses aspect, thankfully you don’t h...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
That was my experience with HZD too but in the end I didn’t carry on with it. I no longer own it or a PS4 but if I saw it cheap on PC or if I got a PS5 I would consider giving it a second chance.

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
If Rockstar don’t release a GTA 6 with a single player component to it, I’ll eat my metaphorical hat 😜 I get that GTA online is a big money spinner, but there’s going to be millions of people that want a single player campaign with no interest in online which is money they can’t turn their nose up a...

Re: The Euro 2020 Thread
Not at this stage of the group no, but I think it does happen in the next stage sometimes if a drawer suits both teams. I can’t remember the teams now but there was a infamous match in a previous euros where the two teams would go through with a draw and the match was so bad that both teams supporte...

Re: Whatcha Been Playing?
[ Personally I just found it a bit dull compared to the Uncharted games. Didn't care about the story or characters, which is a huge part of the Naughty Dog series for me. I never played the first two rebooted TR games, however, so it's a little unfair of me to say that considering I may well have b...

Re: Whatcha Been Watching?
An update on a few films I've watched recently.
Palm Springs
Wow, what a incredible film. To say too much would spoil it but I now have a new favourite rom com 5/5
Sound of Metal
Thought it was good. A bit slow but good. Had a really good heartwrenching scene in it which will stay with me. 3/5

Re: Games Completed 2021
10. Yakuza Like a Dragon Enjoyed it overall for all the typical Yakuza game stuff which makes them so good and didn’t mind the change to combat. However I didn’t enjoy the grinding aspect of it one bit and whilst still good, the story didn’t grab me like Zero or Judgement and hence would be my least...

Re: The Sony news and discussion thread
I’m not against the idea of a Last of Us 3 as it is a really good world they have built up and I liked both games, particularly the second. But before they do a third, personally I would just like to see Naughty Dog make a new IP so by the time TLOU3 comes around there is a huge appetite for it. The...
