Good fun, a little bit 'remember this?' but enjoyable if you've played MMOs and the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted January 21, 2018 Moderators Share Posted January 21, 2018 It's a really fun book I think. Probably a bit trashy but a great read. I don't have super high hopes for the film though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members BigJag Posted January 21, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted January 21, 2018 Spielberg's attached to it and they've tried to give it a bit of a classic Willy Wonka vibe. As well as shoehorned in some more recognisable references. The book possibly has some slightly less mainstream elements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 The only thing I didn't like about the book was the dialogue, which appeared to have been written by someone who'd never heard two real-life teenagers speak to each other. Of all the things that will be changed in the movie script, that one's hopefully top of the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted January 24, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted January 24, 2018 Picked Up Three Fourths Homes and Oh....Sir! The Insult Simulator for about £4 as part of this week's Deals With Gold. Three Fourths Home is an interesting visual novel thing. There are multiple dialogue trees so you can get through it with different dialogue. It's an interesting story and explanation of a family. The characters are fleshed out and you can find out more about them on subsequent playthroughs. You can probably 100% it in a couple of hours in terms of achievements & gamerscore, but it's a nice distraction for a couple of quid. Oh...Sir! aesthetically resembles a fighting game. Pick your character and have a slanging match with the other characters. You get an on screen list and takes turns with your opponent to construct rather silly insults. Each one does damage depending upon how effective it is. There's a combo system and the characters each have a "weakness" as well, which is a particular topic thing about them you can insult for extra damage. It's a fun little distraction. I'd imagine it could be more enjoyable with two players as opposed to against the computer/console, but for a quid-odd it's worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted January 24, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted January 24, 2018 Anyone participating in the Sea of Thieves closed beta on either PC or Xbox? I'm just installing it now. Apparently, it's way better to play this game with friends. So, if anybody wants to add me on PC/Xbox and is in the beta, please do. Kingoftheting.

Paid Members BigJag Posted January 29, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) BT Sport ESPN are showing some Madden Esports. On now. I haven't played Madden in ages. What's it like? Edited January 29, 2018 by BigJag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted January 30, 2018 Moderators Share Posted January 30, 2018 Unnecessarily convoluted, I feel. The game has lost its charm and the annual cycle of releasing a new version these games go through always leads to pointless tinkering and an overall clunky experience.

Paid Members BigJag Posted January 30, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted January 30, 2018 I can't really remember playing Madden since the Amiga days. When the receiver windows would pop up at the top of the screen and you had to push the joystick in the direction of your intended receiver then press the fire button to select that receiver. I'm sure I've played more recent versions since. Just don't remember much about the playing experience. From watching a bit of the Esports stuff it looks like receiver selection is assigned to particular joypad buttons. Plus of course the graphics are superb, viewing angle is closer to the field too. The Esport players didn't seem to be having much fun. They were all very serious and subdued. I may try and pick up one of the PS3 editions of the game. Any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FailedPromoter Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Madden 16 was the last really good one gameplay wise for last gen consoles, they've tinkered too much with 17 and 18. 18 especially is horrendous on Franchise mode, more so if playing as a sole player. Playing as a receiver is nigh on impossible. As Chest says, it's fell into that bad yearly pattern, similar to FIFA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
