Re: \m/ Metal \m/

I wouldn't seek it out, but I'd be pleased if they turned up as the support band or at a festival.

Bit of a back-hander, that! :mrgreen:

It's good, but it's not really my jam.

Re: \m/ Metal \m/

Pretty sure they’re Scottish… 😁

I get exactly what you mean, I can’t define which vocals I like or not, but I have very strong feelings on hearing them!

Re: \m/ Metal \m/

I've found my new favourite thing! "I’ll search for you in the guts of the lost world" is a brilliant metal line to kick off into an epic guitar solo The section from 3:21 is some of the best breakdowning (breaking down? breaking downing?) I've heard in ages I love heavy music with orchestral bits i...

Re: General TV News

Aha, thanks! Yeah, not heard of either… either. Surprised that guy who Roilland himself said was crazy close didn’t get at least one of the roles!

Re: The gig thread

Went to see Funeral for a Friend last night, they're touring in celebration of the 20-year anniversary of their Casually Dressed & Deep in Conversation album, and had a really good night. First support band I'd never heard of, but they put on a pretty good show in spite of the sound desk. Up next wa...

Re: Forza Motorsport - on Gamepass from 10th Oct

The default settings (which you seemingly can't change until you're quite far into the UNSKIPPABLE INTRO :evil: :evil: :evil:) made all the "videos" in the intro run around 0.5-2 FPS for me, but as soon as it dumped me into the first race everything was smooth and playable – weird! The audio played ...

Re: I Just Watched (Films)

I saw an advert for Strays and sent it to some friends, along with "this looks terrible, I can't wait to watch it drunk". 8-)

Re: US Congressional hearing on UAPs

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Journalist and UFO expert Jaime Maussan presented two alleged "non-human" bodies at the Mexican Congress The claims by the self-claimed ‘ufologist’ have not been proven and Mr Maussan has previously been associated with claims of discoveries that have later been debunked. Mr Maussan ...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan

Is OneDrive really a viable option for backups? Seems like no if it’ll delete things off your drive in the case where the server says the files aren’t there! I’d really recommend Backblaze, I’ve been with them for years now. It runs in the background copying all your stuff to their service and has v...

Re: Starfield has a release date

Not worried about game save files compatibility? I've no idea if there are any issues, but I'd definitely look into it first rather than have a nasty surprise later. Some games will only let you play online with people on the same distribution platform as you, so GamePass and Steam are completely in...

Sorry, classic skim-read failure. The say-so of a 92-year-old man, eh? Solid evidence. :D

Re: General Gaming News

It's just like the streaming wars in TV land. Originally there were one or two, but then everyone wants their own slice of the pie and rush to market with a sub-par product, leading to shitty UX. At least on consoles it's a consistent experience, but they're still not for me. The types of games I li...
