    Against the Storm

    Anyone got this? I picked it up in the spring sale and i have to say i think its rather good. There are a few games i think it is similar to. Brian Reynolds' At the Gates, Banished and The Settlers. Basically the gaming loop consists of you collecting resources, which you then divide into...

    The Brit awards and fashion

    Another year, another prime example of how celebrities collectively suffer from attention deficit disorder. I think this year in particular though raises a few more eyebrows than usual. In particular one such individual with quite possibly the most ridiculous outfit i have ever seen. So here...

    Half Life 2 VR Mod

    There is a free mod in open beta at the moment on steam which is a full VR port of Half Life 2. And i have to say it is really rather good. If you have a VR headset its definitely worth checking out. The system requirements are not on Alyx's scale either, so more accessible. It even has full...

    Amber Heard vs Johnny Depp

    I dont usually do celebrities. But it has been so over the press im just curious. Heard or Depp? My twenty cents - I was never there, either in person or the courtroom - obviously. But seems to me that she initiated the whole thing by writing that article. If you are going to make...

    Netflix's diminishing subscribers and its response

    This topic involves discussing piracy. But not in how to pirate. If its against the forum rules I apologise and mods can close it. But its an interesting topic, so.... Netflix have lost subscribers. Quite a lot, especially in the UK. Their response has been to promise a crackdown on password...

    A fun little bullet hell game: Vampire Survivors

    Thought id share a fun little game thats on Steam in Early Access. Its a bullet hell game in the vein of Asteroid. Its less than £3 depending on your region - so very cheap. And its very well made. Extremely easy to just pick up and play. You dont "shoot" - you just move your guy around and...

    When does humour become offensive?

    This is a pretty subjective topic, so should make for a good debate. The recent jokes by Jimmy Car on the holocaust prompted me to think of it. So I shall kick off with this: Offensive? Or funny? Personally i think its offensive. I dont see how joking about a group of people who were...

    I got banned from Facebook

    This seems to be happening more and more as Facebook grapples with various forms of online policing. And i kind of hope that there are others who suffered a similar fate to the one i suffered - in getting banned from facebook (or other social media). So i thought it would be fun to discuss the...

    Bus Etiquette - A very British problem

    Bus etiquette! When I go and sit on the bus in the morning, I always try and sit next to or just behind a window. I fully understand when the driver gets on in the morning they don’t want to sit there driving all day in their full winter gear. And as such they turn the heating on. The...

    Marvels Midnight Suns by Firaxis

    Well its official. A new XCOM style game is in the works from Firaxis. I suppose Chimera squad was a road test. Im not sure how i feel about this tbh. Chimera squad was alright. Not bad, not great IMO. Probably a 7 or 8 out of 10. Im also not a huge marvel fan. So will this have what im...

    Anyone else finding it a bit buggy?

    Problems i have encountered so far: - 3 crashes for unknown reasons - the mouse gets "stuck" and starts jittering so its hard to select stuff. You can fix this by minimising the game and then re opening. Bit annoying though.

    Outdoor cat vs indoor cat

    After doing a spot of reading about this I have come to suspect that it is either not very well researched, or i have just been lucky. It concerns, as the title suggests, cats that are kept indoors vs cats that have their own means of entry and exit and are free to roam the local area...

    To shoe or not to shoe

    After doing some reading online, i found this to be a fairly even split of opinion. So was wondering what peoples opinions are. Is it better to wear shoes all the time? Some of the time? Or spend as much time as possible in bare feet? Obviously lifestyle plays a part. Personally i hate...

    Terraforming Mars top 10 cards

    Just for funsies i thought id make a top 10 list of Terraforming Mars cards. Obviously this is very subjective. And depends on playstyles to a degree. But these cards i think offer the most reliable way of scoring points and are usually strong in a variety of different games or strategies...

    Wasteland 3

    Just a heads up for those interested in playing the new installment of Wasteland 3. If you dont want to shell out the full asking price, then i would suggest you look at taking out a game pass subscription with Microsoft - where you get full access to the game for a measly £3.99 per month. So...

    Factorio

    Ive had my eye on this for what seems like ages now. I was waiting for a full release. Played the demo, instantly liked it and bought it. I have to say it is rather excellent. Its a sort of mash up between Satisfactory, They are billions and most high end management sims. Ive briefly looked...

    XBox Game Pass

    So as most of us are part of the PC master race, this might seem a strange sort of post. But this is the first time where console stuff is actually now worth considering IMO. Its not strictly speaking console stuff, as it all works through the Xbox app in windows 10. But its pretty good value...
