Re: Star Wars: Outlaws
This is launching on 30th August, and there's a story trailer to whet the appetite. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NledFrN47u4 I'm still hesitant to get excited for it if I'm honest. It looks like it's a fairly lavish production, but nothing in the actual gameplay has really grabbed my interest. Al...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
My washing machine managed to completely turn itself off this morning with a drum-load and without draining. Firstly, washing machines are unbelievably awkward to drain without power, to the point where all of the skirting boards around the damned thing are now warped from water damage. I couldn't e...

Re: Currently Playing
I'm just hoping it gets a PC release sooner rather than later. I also finished a game I very much enjoyed over the weekend; Jedi Survivor . It's a better game than its predecessor, and extremely generous in terms of content (I think I clocked up about 55 hours in total, I'd hunted down 95% of the co...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
whining about dog turds, God, this. Like, I get it, nobody wants to have to pick up excrement that has nothing to do with them, and having someone else's pet use their garden as a toilet is frustrating. But just what in the hell do they think they're going to achieve by posting photos of it?! Do th...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
Perhaps. If I went outside and heard choral Latin, I'd maybe understand, but honestly I just think it's cute. I don't know why some people have such a problem with rats when they're clearly just existing.

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
Local facebook groups are a blessing and a massive curse. I live on an estate that borders farmland, and this evening one of the residents posted this image: https://i.imgur.com/KfhnlUh.png There's been talk of phoning the council on Monday to request pest-control deal with it. Just what the hell ar...

Re: I Just Watched (Films)
Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse This is, unquestionably, the best looking film I've ever seen, and the only film that comes close is its predecessor. It's 2hr20min long, and by my reckoning that's 201,000 frames of absolutely beautiful concept art. It's staggeringly good looking; there's no amoun...

I'm surprised he can hold onto that thing without suffering third degree burns.

I don't think this really requires elaborating on.

Ehh, I think if the goal of the article is to get a layman interested in particle physics, then dressing it up in a flowery analogy is probably not the worst idea they could have had. Anyone who isn't already aware of the concept of dark matter and dark energy is going to have zero interest in this...

Ehh, I think if the goal of the article is to get a layman interested in particle physics, then dressing it up in a flowery analogy is probably not the worst idea they could have had. If it were in a science journal, then I'd be concerned. I will concede that "ghostbuster-in-chief" is taking the met...

Re: I Just Watched (Films)
Bit of a review plus a question. At the weekend I watched Ghostbusters for the first time in probably a decade, and honestly I thought it was exceedingly average, which was both a surprise and a disappointment. The script is average for the most part, albeit with two or three excellent one-liners, a...

Re: The Room 101 thread - for things you hate or just having a bloody good moan
Pretty much exactly that. At one point I was using my adjustable spanner as a hammer to try and force the pedal plate down as it had gotten wedged between two immovable parts and I couldn't put enough force behind it from the other direction. To say I've marked the paintwork would be an understateme...

Re: General Film News
For a teaser, that seems to give a hell of a lot away. It looks fine, the return to a spaceship setting is probably a good thing, but I'd honestly suggest not watching that video.
