CAREBEAR LUVVA

I just quit right out of the Xbox One app, and the collections section was there when I restarted it. But yeah, the vault has disappeared now. Bugger!

Is this collections feature available on the console versions of the Network yet? I can't seem to find it on the Xbox One or PS3. Am I being blind?

Nah, because you need the big clunky uncomfortable Wii U pad thing to be able to play Wii U games, and that doesn't work on the regular Wii.

Is anyone still playing online on Xbox One? I've been really fancying doing a few heists, and wouldn't mind checking out these new features that have just been added this week, but most of my former crew-mates have moved on to other games. If anyone fancies saving me from playing online with dickheads (which unfortunately there seems to be a rather high proportion of), please give MisterHumphries a shout!

Hi folks. I've got a single spare second row £40 ticket for the October 2nd NJPW show if anyone might be looking for one. Recently got a new job and it turns out I'm not going to be able to make it to the show, unfortunately. I'm not looking to make anything on the ticket so it's going for face value - ideally sort it out via Paypal and I can forward the ticket by email straight away. Send us a PM if interested!

Got an Xbox One from Game this morning in their Black Friday sale. Traded in my 3DS and three games, and ended up with the Xbone and ten games (ten!!) for just over £280. I felt a bit of a tit standing outside in the cold for nearly three hours, but I worked out if I'd bought everything full-price I'd be looking at nearly £700 so I reckon it was worth it. Two thumbs up to Game and their special offers!

Bear in mind that Forza is being pimped out with about every bundle just now as it'll be a digitial download so you might not get as m much selling it on as you would for a physical copy.

 

ShopTo have had some cracking bundles on recently. Tenner more than the Game deal and you can get GTAV & Sunset Overdrive bundle

That's quite tempting! I'm planning to trade in my 3DS (I haven't used it for at least a year now, so it might as well go...) and a few games to knock about £100 off, then get rid of the Fifa and Forza downloads on eBay. I've been keeping an eye on a few download codes this week, they're going for about £20 each so that'd be around another 40 quid back, bringing the total down to just over £200. It might be a bit of a faff but the savings can be spent on the games I really want, so it should work out OK in the end. Just need to decide if I'm going to get it on Friday and have it sitting at home while I'm in work solidly for the following week, or if I can be patient enough to wait until I've got some time off!

I've had my eye on the current Xbone deal at Game - it includes Forza 5 with all its DLC which sounds good for racing fans, as well as Fifa 15 and GTA 5 for £350. Admittedly I'm not arsed about Fifa or Forza but they can be sold on eBay easily enough. Payday next Friday...

That's exactly the sort of deal I've been waiting for! But I think I've just been persuaded to get an Xbox One instead. I was firmly in the PS4 camp until I heard my old GTA crew mates are back together on the Xbox... I feel torn!

Do we know if Big E is still part of this New Day thing? He wrestled on Superstars in his usual gear, which doesn't seem like the sort of thing they'd have him doing if he was supposed to be getting repackaged.

Will be a better crowd tonight, always is. Smaller though. The nobs only go to Raw.

 

 

 

 

Nah the Luke Harper thing wasn't played to the crowd. It probably could have almost saved the show if they'd done that out on the stage at the end.

We stayed until the end of the dark match, and honestly don't remember seeing the Harper thing on the tron.

That's odd, seeing as there wasn't a dark match.

That's odd, seeing as something resembling a match happened at the end of the televised part of the show.

It was shown during Zigglers entrance.

 

Also whats the deal with Rowan randomly walking out during the Rose match?

The eyes promo was shown during Ziggler's entrance, but then there was another bit with actual Luke Harper appearing right at the end of the show which wasn't shown to the live audience.

Rowan apparently was looking for someone last night, but she wasn't there so he wandered off.

I imagine there's loads of frantic editing going on in the production truck right now. Tonight's Raw was filled with the expected "where's our Network" chants, quite a few "boring" chants, loads of booing when security were confiscating stuff from the crowd (which happened often), and absolute silence during some of the matches. Keeping things spoiler-free until everyone's seen it, I'll just say it was a really awful show. Probably one of the worst I've been to since I started going to the wrestling in about 1991. I was a bit gutted about being in work tomorrow night and not being able to go to Smackdown, but now I think I'd be better off in work. Just horrible!

If I was Vince I'd be more worried about the photo of Cena reading The Sun that one of their UK PR lads Tweeted a couple of days ago. Scouse dads won't like that!

I've been behaving myself for the last few weeks but I miss takeaways so much This thread has been a cracking read though. Especially the bits about roast dinners.

Edit: Nevermind. Nowhere on Just-Eat in Liverpool seems to do both cheesy chips and gravy.

Lau's on Smithdown Road will do pretty much any combination of takeaway muck you can think of. They're not on Just Eat but they do phone orders if that's any use. Alternatively, if you're feeling really brave, Panny's on Breck Road are fairly accommodating to unusual requests!

I had that exact same problem with The Last Of Us. When your mates start wandering around and making the baddies kick off when you were just calmly hiding behind something waiting for the right time to sneak past. Infuriating. Sometimes they'd even walk right in front of the baddies (were they called Clickers? I called them Dickheads) but wouldn't be seen at all, which was just as absurd. The woman in CEX proper snarled at me when I traded it in as well. Snotty cow.

Is Uhaa Nation still having his title match at some point during this weekend as well? Or have I made that up? I'm fairly sure it got mentioned last time he was on a PCW show...

Just a quick heads up for anyone whose Xbox Live subscription might be coming up for renewal soon - keep an eye on your bank account, as Microsoft are apparently having a problem with people being charged twice. I noticed two £39.99 charges on my bank statement earlier today, the woman on the support number said they've been aware of the issue since last week and Microsoft are "cooperating with the banks" to refund the extra charges but it might take "one to two months" for refunds to be processed. Pretty outrageous stuff there. Fuck knows how they've managed to keep it so quiet, surely that's a pretty big cock up?

Ohhhh. Oh well.

Looks like possibly the best PCW show in ages, this one. Crossing my fingers for Will Ospreay to be added to that 4-way. All that's been said about the mystery name so far is it's a UK wrestler who hasn't been to PCW before. Ospreay would fit into a match with Allmark, Travis and Kirby quite nicely I reckon.

Of course she has. Given their recent track record for covering stuff up, it's easy to suspect she's quite possibly talking bollocks in a half-arsed attempt to rescue a tiny bit of dignity before the whole thing goes completely tits up.

WWE sent a survey out to this year's Wrestlemania travel package customers today, which included a question about cities you'd be interested in going to if they hosted Mania. London was the third or fourth option, and it was the only non-US city to get a mention. We all know it's highly unlikely to happen, but it was nice of them to bother adding it to the list.

So Dark Souls eh? (Way late to that particular party) but anyway. Playing today and managed to get past the Demon on the bridge in undead burg, but then as I was making my way to the boar, some guy jumped into my game and killed me, wtf? I was doing so well too after all that. Can people just dive in and out? How do I stop this?I also love the boss battles, its very Shadow of The Colossus in my opinion. Feels absolutely amazing when you down one.

The only ways to stop other players invading are to play offline (so you won't see player messages or bloodstains) or to spend all your time hollow (ie. don't use Humanity to return to human form, which would mean you're not able to use summon signs if you need help at any point). You'll probably find less invasions happening after you get through Undead Burg, as it's one of the areas in the game that a lot of people seem to use for invasions. Probably something to do with dickheads enjoying harassing new players during the early parts of the game while they're too underpowered to fight back. Stick with it though - either the invasions will slow down (apart from the ones that are actually part of the game) or you'll reach a point where you're confident enough to stand your ground and take them on.

Cheers! can you just turn it off in the menu then? What do people suggest is better? I haven't really used the messages, most people just seem to write "I did it" or "jump" at high ledges but are they useful for warnings etc?
