What's his/her name?

Really isn't that easy. Wasn't that easy with the Taliban and IS are much more mobile and spread out, and are better armed. Just nuke the entire Middle East from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Curved TVs are horrible, spiteful things. They're a marketing dream, nothing else. There is zero benefit to them in terms of viewing angle or screen quality, and every penny spent on engineering a curved screen is a penny less spent on things that actually matter, like processing power. Also, with the screen off they reflect the light as if you were looking into the back of a spoon, which is horrendously distracting. I hate them. Passionately. Samsung yes though, all my recent ones have been from them with good reason. The 75" one in the main lounge is a thing of beauty. It's not 4K, but that's on purpose.

Amen! Vaping is as disgusting as smoking, as I say that as an ex-smoker (yeah, no-one likes us!). Ban the lot and be done with it.

Oh god. please don't tell me you bought the new NFS, it's f*cking awful

It's all fighting over who's got the best pretend friend. But yeah, thoughts are with Parisians tonight.

I stepped down years ago, essentially I felt I couldn't give the role the time it deserves. T'was good fun while it lasted

Well, thought I'd say it before someone else did Some people think it's just a matey buddy club, but it's really not: I was chosen despite never having met any of the Team at that time, nor actually having been to any events/meets either. If you're a sensible person who can devote the time to the role AND remember that sometimes you have to do what's right for the forum rather than what's right for your pal, you'll get a call at some point.

Secret handshakes and knowing winks Mods are selected based on nothing more than gut instinct really: A few names will get mentioned in the Team area, then everyone chimes in as to whether they think that person is suitable, then as long as no-one has any objections the invite goes out. Mods have to approve every for sale post so there's a lot there to do, on top of telling people like me off for calling people idiots when I think they're being idiots

Good to see the training course is as efficient as ever!

It's a stupid addition to a range that doesn't need expanding. It's oversized, overpriced and unnecessary. I'm getting mine Saturday.

Woah, that's a massive influx! More mods than members soon 'Gratz guys

And dick around in it you do very well, sir!

Fixed

I've seen a few vids where people have had issues, but then Skyrim was apparently broken on release but I never had a single issue there either. Maybe I'm just lucky I'd suggest the vast majority have a good experience with Bethesda games, rather than the minority. They're never perfect, but for me I'd take a flawed genius game over a bug-free average one.

No, I genuinely hate the FF games. They're slow, clunky, confusing: Just a mess really. That said, I'm aware they're actually brilliant games and it's just a personal thing, so very much like TLOU which I also consider to be brilliant but I don't like.

I've had no random popups like that, no slowdown on scoping either. What platform?

I played the one that was on the PS1, the really big one. It was sodding awful, one of the worst experiences of my life and I've not touched them since. Secret Of Mana, now there's a classic game...

No bugs on mine, barring a slight hiccup with some subtitles. No FPS issues either yet. Combat is fine (I didn't think I'd like the fact that VATS no longer stops time, but actually it works fine and does make more sense), voice acting from the main character is brilliant to have now, and the whole feel and look of the game is immense. The crafting stuff is awkward, but I've got it figured out now so it's okay. It's immense. It's not perfect, but then no game is.

Play 3 was always the weakest of the units sadly, two Play 1s were a significant improvement over the Play 3. Hopefully when the new range comes out, they'll remedy this as it's a great price point for the 3 to sit at.

Fallout 4. GOTY That is all.

Look at it this way: Do they spend hours trying to figure out a way to be precise about what defines a workplace, costing the taxpayer a fortune, or do they just make it a bit obtuse on the basis no-ones ever going to be prosecuted for it? Of course banning vaping at home is silly, but for the workplace it's a good idea and this is the easiest way to achieve it.

Whilst I agree with the anger of it, tbh who cares? I'd much rather they introduced the law that covered all workplaces in the basis that it's impossible to police at hone, as such it doesn't matter if it's covered or not.

TYRE

I'm just going to quote myself here, so I can point this thread out when the next person comes on complains that I only ever knock the 350.
