Re: HITMAN 2 [PC, PS4, XBone] - 13th of November

I failed :oops:

Well, I killed the bastard (said in SB style), but got caught doing so and didn't survive the exfiltration.

Re: Let's Play... XCOM 2 (War of the Chosen)!

Does your version of the game know me irl?

Although do please edit my nickname - while I am more than happy being named after the hammer of Thor, I do insist upon the correct spelling (just the one L please ;))

Re: Modern gaming business practices

So I should hope. I saw something in the news recently from publishers saying they should self-regulate and not be legislated upon. I call BS on that, the utter lack of morals and scruples that they have shown in finding ways to wring money from their customer base is fucking disgusting, and self-re...

Re: Modern gaming business practices

Special bonus points to inXile, devs of Wasteland 2.

Started a replay recently, and on firing it up saw a click through in the main menu for "Red boots, $49.99"...

Re: Currently Playing

Started a replay of Wasteland 2. I tried loading up an old save but barely remembered anything so started afresh.

Initially I thought I was going to quickly bail, but then it drew me in and am once again firmly hooked.

Re: Let's Play... XCOM 2 (War of the Chosen)!

I bounced off this for the same reasons Jez. One of the things I loved about the original XCOM series (and Xenonauts later) was that you had free reign to exercise whichever tactics you liked, where XCOM the remakes threw elements in that you could not tactically prepare for and imposed limits on tu...

Re: The Apprentice 2018

Standard outcome (late watching it :) ) - appeal to Sugar's self-made barrow-boy-done-good roots like Tom(?) did and you avoid the axe. Also Sugar has a history of disliking overly corporate individuals.

Re: Good TV (aka, the TV series spamthread), the second series

Just binged Season 3 of The Last Kingdom on Netflix. Absolutely brilliant serialisation of Bernard Cornwell's Saxon Chronicles, about the rise of Alfred the Great and his successors told from the viewpoint of Uhtred of Bebbanburg (Bamburgh), a Saxon captured and raised a Viking. It really is a brill...

Re: Currently Playing

Damn we have a full pack of 4 players for Dying Light, why are we not getting a co-op session going? On the expansion by the way... I felt it was a miss. Taking you out of the city into the countryside, you lose all that parkour fun and instead just zoom about in buggies, which are less fun than the...
