  1. Titanfall 2 will def be on PS4, the first game was brilliant and I hate online only FPS games as a rule Tomb Raider looks good, can't wait for that one this year. Quite a few decent releases between now and Christmas
  2. Don't think it is, doesn't the UK one say 98 as well? There's no real difference between BP97 and anything else branded 98 or over, they all have to go by the same BS number over here so will all be fine.
  3. Massive difference. It's the very worst place to add weight, but I'd expect to feel differences in the turning than in acceleration or braking, but everything will be negatively affected by adding weight.
  4. Cloud processing will make no difference to the graphics at all, all it could do is help with things like physics calculations. The Xbone will always have poorer gfx than the PS4. Like I said though, unless you have both versions of one game running at the same time side by side in front of you, how could you ever tell the difference? I couldn't. Games still look amazing. Batman especially is incredible. If I wanted the greatest graphics, I'd go buy a PC as that would wee over both consoles with considerable ease.
  5. I stayed with MS after the 360, as I prefer their exclusives. Do I regret it? Not in the slightest. Sure, the Xbone is graphically weaker but since I never have both consoles playing the same game in front of me together, I'll never be able to tell the difference. The games look good enough to me, and that's all that matters. I'm also much happier with how MS roll out their updates compared with Sony, and we seem to be getting genuinely useful additions: The new OS is due imminently too. MS are a software company though, so I'd expect no less. Certainly XBL appears to be more resilient than the PSN too, going on specialist media reports. I like how I can upgrade the storage by just plugging an external HDD in too, and not having to open the guts up. I prefer the controllers too, far more solid than the PS4 ones but, then again, if you're used to the Dualshock you'll prob not like the Xbone controller. Personal choice and all that. The BC works really well, as it's a full blown emulator rather than trying to be clever with software. Admittedly I still have my 360 set up in the retro man cave so I don't tend to use the BC stuff that much, but it's nice that it's there. Ultimately, they're both great consoles. PS4 was much better at the start, Xbone now an equal. Above all buy the console your mates have if you do a lot of CoD/FIFA online stuff, or buy it for the games you prefer. Halo and Forza or Uncharted and GT, no right or wrong answer. All I know is that I love my Xbone, and I'm still not bored of pausing films by talking to my TV!
  6. What I meant was, chuck it on a card and pay it off over 6mths if you can, will end up cheaper than using the insurance company's finance Even better if it's on a 0% card
  7. She had a non-fault accident that has to be declared, not a lot you can do on that one I'm afraid. Either don't use Admiral, or suck it up. You may be better off paying it in one go but putting it on a credit card, then paying that off quicker than 12 months: Worth looking into, at least. What are you paying PCM now? Welcome along, btw!
  8. You can sleep in a car, you can't drive a house
  9. Nah, no harm in what you did, depends where you live I guess. I'm not a massive fan of confrontation so I'd have left it as they could've had a blade, but equally they might just like nice cars.
  10. Everyone does. Should've bought a 96RS instead of the 97.2 C2S, would've paid for my house by now.
  11. Our Mini drank it like crazy, early turbo. The torque steer on the Mini does my head in, I've no idea how they get rated so highly.
  12. Especially when that corner isn't even a corner, merely a slight curve in a straight road.
  13. And old people. Old people are useless at indicating, or accelerating.
  14. PSC2 are MUCH better than the 888s for grip and feel on track, but then they do cost a fair bit more. If you have the budget and want a track biased tyre, they're the ones to go for.
  15. Except people who don't indicate on roundabouts though, right?
  16. That's the thing, on a 370 it's not essential to use 97+ at all. You can use 95 all year round if you like, aside from a smidge of lost power nothing drastic would happen. It's the DE engined 350 that desperately needs 97+.
  17. Depends. Cup2 are the ultimate trackday special and this time they also work well in the wet, but on a GT-R would you want that much grip? If you want to feel the car move around a bit more, I think the MPSS would be the better choice. Really does depend on what you want out of the car.
  18. Depends on what wheels you have: The OEM wheels are the same width, the Rays are half an inch wider at the rear. Aftermarket wheels could be anything. But yeah, the Zed can be tail happy but it shouldn't be that tail happy!
  19. No! That's oversteer city and an accident waiting to happen, you must feel the rear has naff all grip and your TCS is cutting in all the time? Go back to 225/245 F/R ASAP, I really wouldn't risk running the setup you have for anything other than an emergency.
  20. Agreed. Impressive performance, face like a bulldog licking p*ss off a thistle.
  21. If you map for anything over 97 with no backup map then that's just silly.
  22. DAS6, but you stil need to know what you're doing and compound choice is just as critical, if not more so.
