Video Games

Not those bluetooth ones you suddenly stop using after 6 minutes because the battery doesn't last...?

I'm afraid I'm out on Sat so the evening looking very unlikely and def away Sun. May have some time tomorrow evening but couldn't say when. Been trying to do those Survival challenge things this week since the update. Haven't had a chicken dinner in ages!

No, I'm going to buy something with a wire!

I'm possibly about tonight and WFH tomorrow (aka jerking off and playing video games) so anytime then. Prob in all night tomo as out all sat on my kids bike getting RAD and I'm too old to mix hangovers and bikes.

Hit my up BRO.

I also am 'working from home' tomorrow.

Maybe we could 'work from home' together.

Fallout 3 Steam code at 33 pence with fees.

Linky thingy.

Regressing to nerdy teenager for the weekend... mountain dew and doritos ordered, be good to get a full LFGSS PUBG session, I'll even use headphones...

If i'm about i'm in
May be fishing/making beer also

Forza Horizon 4 unlocks today for those of us stupid enough to spend £80 on the ultimate edition.

Can't wait to sack off work...

Price seems slightly extortionate, but given I'll probably end up buying the expansions anyway...

I recommend watching this (regarding cost):

This.

There are plenty of games i buy at £50 and play for 10 hours and never touch.

I put over 200 hours into Horizon 3 once you include the two expansions. It's good value when you think of it that way.

I think this one https://www.cdkeys.com/pc/games/fallout-3-game-of-the-year-edition-pc-cd-key-steam?mw_aref=74dth566

May be better given its still under a fiver and includes all the expansions.

Just remember to do Operation Anchorage 1st in Fallout 3 GOTY, then you can gets Power Armour early doors (hacking ain't my gig)

Probably. I just have this weird desire to fill my 500GB game drive with games I'll never play beyond 5 hours.

@Soul missing something?

I was stuck with three left. Found two - the very ends of dotted red roads - but the last one took ages. Turned out to be a regular street in the middle of Edinburgh.

Cuuuuuuuuuunt

after purchasing in the morning on weds I got invited to go camping from the day after for 3 nights so whole evening was spent packing my gear and getting ready.

got home today and fired it up. creepy as fuck. have played up to the bit where you have to start collecting shards. so far really enjoying it.

Yeah. Glad to know that it is living up to my description.

I am towards the end and need to time for the last two bigger boss fights but that's proving to be hard to come by lately.

Kill a civilian, get hunted down by their family... awesome.

hahaha - that's completely my approach to games on the xbox game pass too!

Guys enjoying the new forza? Isn't it out on gamepass today/tomorrow?

If so that's my weekend sorted.

It's excellent.

Firstly, it's fucking insanely good looking. The lighting, the scenery, seasons, the cars etc. In 4k HDR on a massive OLED screen, it's almost photorealistic in places.

Gameplay is the same FH formula with races, stunts, and showcases which isn't a bad thing.

The only negative I have is probably the way it introduces you to the game. You have probably 4 or 5 hours of the prologue where it shows you the seasons and the game mechanics. It's not as rigid as a walkthrough tutorial in an RPG or something but it still feels like aaaaages before you get to access the whole game.

Still; I've happily paid £80 for it (which also unlocked it on Friday...), even though I have game pass if that's a solid measure of how good it is. The fact that you can play it 'for free' is amazing.

Brilliant.

Can you play online prior to completing the prologue?

This is not helping me convince myself I don't need the one x.

I think so.

Don't really go in for the whole online play with Forza usually. It's a clusterfuck of nonsense for the most part.

Oh I feel like you'd enjoy some of the online segments.

I'm looking forward to playing it!

Maybe i'm just jaded by first corner crashes and griefers driving the wrong way on things etc.

The persistent online part of FH4 ghosts real player cars when they get close which is great but that doesn't happen in race.

Maybe i'll catch you online later in the week...

wonder how virtuous you can be in a rock 'em sock 'em environment.
OR if you'd even want to try.

Looking good. Could lose a lot of time in here
