Ekona Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 I was a little unsure, but the second I held it in my hands I knew it was worth it The weighting, the rubber grips, the buttons, the adjustable/changeable sticks, the paddles... You need this in your life! Best pad I've ever used, ahead of both SNES and N64. And that's saying something. 1 Quote
Fodder Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 That's good to know..... does it bounce ok when frustrated? Actually it's been a while since I've checked for a software update for the pad. Will check that next time I'm online but an elite controller maybe on the cards.... it's a normal controller as far as the OH is concerned...... Quote
Ekona Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 I didn't tell my other half the cost of it either Quote
GMballistic Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Get the Elite, it's worth every penny, promise. Just Googled that out of interest, ....definitely expensive but I like that you can change the button mapping layouts from what I read. I'd probably buy it just for that feature if I had an Xbox1. @Fodder ~ I occasionally change my class too when I feel it's needed. Like I was playing TDM the other night and just kept dying when I was a Scout as the fire fights were just too close. Changed to the Support class and started to do much better. Quote

RyanT Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 I got Dirt Rally last night. Can't keep the car in a straight line! Amazing game, with a proper steering wheel & pedal set up it's next level. Quote
Fodder Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 GTFO Got to agree, very good pad and teamed with goldeneye was superb as every function felt naturally placed... rumble pack or not Quote
TT350 Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 Have either of you used one lately lol. Moving the thumbstick is like stirring cement. Quote
Ekona Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 (edited) Mine are mint, thankyouverymuch Ergonomic perfection is what it is. Edited November 13, 2016 by Ekona Quote
TT350 Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 OddJob is always banned in multiplayer. Hes so short that the auto aim feature doesn't aim at him Quote

Amazing game, with a proper steering wheel & pedal set up it's next level. Seems unplayable with joypad. Maybe I need to play with the settings. I did briefly but it didn't improve much.

Seems unplayable with joypad. Maybe I need to play with the settings. I did briefly but it didn't inprove much. As far as I've seen it's a pretty hardcore sim so not something you could jump into arcade style. Perserve and I'm sure it will come together Quote

As far as I've seen it's a pretty hardcore sim so not something you could jump into arcade style. Perserve and I'm sure it will come together I haven't played Dirt Rally in ages as I got f***ed off with it, ...just not fun to play imo for a few reasons; When doing the timed rally stages the split time pops up and blocks your view for a brief few seconds usually just before a corner making you crash. Also the hill climbs are a nightmare with no co-driver calling the corners so you just have to repeatedly play it until you gather how fast you can actually push it around the bends. I'm using a PS4 controller so it might be a lot better with a proper steering wheel set up but I doubt it. I'm just hoping that the new GT game when it arrives (next year) will be awesome as I still haven't found a racing game I truly haven't got bored of or annoyed at yet. Quote
GMballistic Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 Forza 6 is a good game. Not had a go on that but I have heard it's great, ...pity it's not available on the PS4 though otherwise I'd buy it. Quote
Brimstoneboy Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 Been waiting for dishonoured 2 but as Ekona said pc review is full of hate atm. Finished shadow warrior 2 other week so bought hard reset this weekend for sommat to do at 3.79 didn't break bank . Waiting for space marines death wing now 9 Dec Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Ekona Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 Get Dishonored on the scabby consoles, it may be peasantry but it's oh-so amazing. I didn't get to bed until 0200 last night as one level took me 4 hours to do with perfect stealth/no kill Quote
andybp Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Well I was playing doom up to about 30 minutes ago when my pc overheated and crashed again! I love amd for value for money but they run too bloody hot so I've deserted and gone to intel and just bought an i7 6700k, asus motherboard and 32 GB of ddr4 ram from ebuyer (may of got a bit carried away) Quote
BulletMagnet Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Personally, I think the i7 is overkill for gaming, fine of course if you do proper computer stuff other than gaming, then is a good idea. Quote
BobbyZ Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Do current games support hyper threading? If not then an i7 is still overkill for gaming. Quote
Fodder Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 Not sure if it's been mentioned but battlefield 1 and titsnfall 2 are on offer into Xbox live gold members for about £32 each. Xbox one digital copies as a Black Friday promotion. COD is still full price and didn't look to see if anything else was reduced. By the way is anyone else confused as to why Black Friday has started a week early and lasting the whole week?!? Quote
BulletMagnet Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) Commercialism, people think they get a bargain while sellers still make profit and whilst people think they are saving money they may buy more than usual. Edited November 19, 2016 by BulletMagnet Quote
nievelc Posted November 20, 2016 Posted November 20, 2016 Caved in, just bought BF1. Titanfall 2 will be next..! Going to update my system though - need a new MB, RAM, CPU, GPU. my first port of call is always overclockers.co.uk anyone got a good suggestion? Quote
