Day off to play Mass Effect: Andromeda. Have tomorrow off too. My best mate has a half day today and tomorrow for the same reason. It seems like Xbox servers are having a nuke at the moment. I've been kicked from all 9 games I've tried to play. None of the experience or credits are kept, and worse I...

What's the difference between Rory McIlroy and Fernando Alonso? Rory can drive 300 yards.

DNF? Nah.

Both cars don't start after failing to qualify or set a decent pace in practice so the stewards can't allow them to race.

Genuine question to gamers - how do you sleep at night? I tend to only play my PS4 when I have a lot of spare time and at the weekend. I have the odd hour here and there during the week, but I find an hour gameplay at night (for example) means I still can't sleep even if I switch the b*stard thing ...

Just saw Suicide Squad for the first time. What a pile of absolute f**king horsesh*t. I'm actually annoyed that I didn't turn it off after the first hour (at which point it felt like it had been about 4 hours). I usually think it sounds like a bunch of pretentious wanky bullsh*t when someone says a ...

So did I read correctly that both drivers will have pink helmets too? I dislike that. I know the numbers will be visible and a part of the top crash structure/engine intake is differently coloured, but generally helmet colour (lol) is one of the the main things I use to determine which driver I'm lo...

Always interesting to read his posts and the numerical driver comparisons. Sad news indeed. My condolences to his family.

What other athletes really spend as much time away from home? I mean if you are a football player, you'll be mostly somewhere near the city they play in. Even if you are NBA, NFL, MLB etc in USA I'd have thought you'd spend more time at home (during season at least) than an F1 driver. Maybe I'm wron...

I've still got some of the DA:O DLC to go, Awakening and Witch Hunt so I'm not completely finished. I doubt I'll play DA2 however, I'm not a huge fan of the combat system in these kinds of games, it feels too disconnected to me as I like to actually control what my character is doing instead of cli...

If I am Mercedes team boss, I want Bottas to be able to see whatever data and setups etc he wants. I also want Hamilton to be able to do the same. If the championship is sewn up between my two guys, and the WCC is sorted, then maybe I allow this kind of thing. I get why Hamilton might not want to sh...

I'm waiting at least 1 month after ME:A comes out so they can fix all the inevitable bugs that all games have on release these days, that way I can have a nice clean run through. It will also give me a chance to read reviews to see if it's worth buying at retail price or on a sale, just need to try...

I'll admit I have no basis for believing this, but how hard can it be to get it to work? I know of a few ways some people have found to run emulators on 3DS. I greatly appreciate and admire the work that some folk go to to make emulators work but I also have to assume it would be easier if it's your...

How hard can it be?

In fairness to McLaren, if you'd told me they'd have this much engine trouble with the Honda PUs I'd have thought the person saying that was being ridiculously pessimistic.

Not an endurance running fan at all, but it's always interesting for records to be broken. I wouldn't watch but I'd be interested to know how it goes.

My nephew turned 7 this week. Family lunch today to celebrate. I got him NERF-style guns (the foamy bullet shooty ones). My nephew, me (age 28) and my big brother (33) then had a pretty epic shootout at my folks house.

Super Mario World doesn't play on my 3DS. Apparently I need a newer model of 3DS. Given it's a 26+ year old SNES game, I kinda feel like this is a dick move on Nintendo's part.

for Alienturnedhuman.

I spent a while with a pen and paper and got some of it roughly worked out but I have to applaud your full in-depth explanation.

Rewatching DS9 again, god I love that show! Just getting to end of season 6 now and right into the dominion wars. Every time I watch one of the big space battles and see the amassed Starfleet, Klingon and Romulan fleets I get a tingling down my spine. LOVE IT!!!!! DS9 was fantastic. Big fan what th...

I'm still a little in shock. Great game though, had a blast watching it with my buddies. I thought Lady Gaga was really good at HT too. Apparently she's been getting some abuse online about being too fat or some pish. I don't understand that at all. Curious to see how Ryan continues from this. To be...

Ho Lee Sh*t The game was probably dead at halftime at 21-3. When it was 28-3 it was almost certainly dead. What. What. Brady had a slow start but my god he was the epitome of clutch late on. That Edelman catch with the ball so damn close to the ground and being in a bundy* with 3 Falcons. Overtime. ...

Got my fiver on Tails for the coin toss. Few other silly bets. My buddy and I played the Superbowl in Madden last night (me - Pats, him - Falcons). 45-39 to the Pats in the end. Both kickers missed PATs. Brady went over 450 yards, 4TDs, 2 INTs. Ryan went 3TD, 4 INT. And so as many of these stats as ...

I'm not among those fans of Lewis, but just like to 'participate'. In his rookie year in 2007, Lewis wore yellow helmet, didn't he? I'd like to see him back to yellow helmet, with minimalist design. I'm thinking something like Green Bay Packers' helmet, but just replace the 'G' logo with '44'. *Pac...

I've hated fps since around the time COD4 came out, and they shifted away from fun to semi realism. Overwatch reminds me of Timesplitters where fun and being a bit silly were the most important things. I suck at it, but I can't stop playing it despite being terrible, and that to me is the mark of a...

I agree with the opinion on Lady Gaga. I thought she did a great job at the Superbowl last year, so much so that I actually recall thinking she was really good. I'm quite happy with the way the Superbowl matchup has shaped up. I did predict before the season 3 of the 4 teams that made the championsh...

I don't know how the money breaks down. My ideas would be: Try to get it on "free" TV. I definitely notice that less of my friends are watching F1 because it's now on Sky Sports in the UK. The BBC years recently were a bit of a boom in terms of people I know who watched some F1. At the very least, I...

What a game the Packers @ Cowboys game was. I had no intention of watching it till the end, but I couldn't turn it off. For those that have Sky, but not Sports. Sunday's AFC game will be on Sky Sports Mix, which is free! With about 6 mins left in the first half it was 21-3 or thereabouts and I thou...

I like Sir Stirling. He always seems like a nice chap in interviews etc. I really liked his documentary with Richard Hammond a number of years ago. I hope he gets back on his feet, though as said above a serious chest infection at 87 years old is worrying.

MP5-1?

Probably the MP4-32 I expect is most likely. But I base that off nothing factual but simply my inkling.

One thing I have noticed is that although Asda have self serve tills, people seem reluctant to use them. I've seen queues at staffed tills and self serv tills standing empty. I don't think people are that keen on the idea to be honest. I try to exclusively use the self serve. But I'd like to cut ou...

Based on sci-fi, some options are: Machines take all the jobs. Everyone gets poorer. The robots break away into their own nation. We try to kill them, they win. All this has happened before and will happen again. We are all descended from some sexy space robots and some sexy space humans! Skynet is ...

Playing Life is Strange. Wow, absolutely loving this game so far. Similar to the Telltale Walking Dead/TftB/Batman games in some ways but also quite distinct. On chapter 4 of 5, adoring this game though. If the ending keeps me engaged then this will be a strong recommendation from me to anyone inter...

I just caught the res evil sale, so that 4, 5 and 6 for me too! Already got my monies worth from 4 with 8 hours gameplay and only half way through the main story. Still one of the best action/survival horror games out there and not showing it's age too much. Resi 4 is a fantastic game. Resi 5 I thi...

I've just bought Batman:Telltale because it was on sale, which I hope has their top quality, because the last game of theirs I bought was Game of Thrones and it was awful (which is why I don't have TFTB or Minecraft). Normally they are very good games though. If you're interested, Walking Dead S3 i...

Man, the Raiders finally have a good team and they lose their star QB. The Titans too, but they aren't going to playoffs and aren't fighting for a potential #1 seed. I really like Derek Carr and the Raiders over the last couple of years. With the trade deadline long since gone they aren't likely to ...
