I'm ragequitting already.

Yeah, maybe. More Pineapple Express than 22 Jump Street, but perhaps only because I sort of liked the former and didn't like the latter. The start isn't its strongest moment - the devil is the best character by far - but you might not have liked it anyway.

F Is For Family A one-series (so far) Netflix exclusive in a similar vein to Family Guy/The Simpsons/The Flintstones etc. I.e. dysfunctional family with a brutish father who has a shitty job. It's set in the 70s and more serious and adult than any of the aforementioned cartoons (I don't recall Home...

Another out-of-the-blue Netflix pick, Hell and Back . I scrolled past it loads of times because it was one of those rubber-model animations and I'm not really a fan, but it also kept coming up in the crude adult comedy class, so eventually I gave it a go. And it wasn't bad actually, I thought. Felt ...

Ha! I was right on the price tag. But also :( No day 1 purchase for me at that price. I'm also not impressed by the new art style. Looks like a mobile game. Other than that it sounds mostly great. Embedding units sounds good, trying to make the game more situational rather than a race to victory sou...

\awaits £50 release price.

It also has to compete with the similarly priced Stellaris for me. Although 5punkygames will probably win out.

Genji? Maybe. I play Genji, he's my offence character of choice and possibly my favourite overall, but his bullet-parry doesn't last long enough to cross much open ground while under fire, and he withers in a second on the end of Bastion's turret. As with anyone else, flanking is probably the best w...

We had 4 Bastions for one game on Saturday, really just to see if it broke the game. It pretty much did - they were a lot better than we were but we held them off reasonably well to win. They were surprisingly magnanimous about it, although did remark on the 'cheese tactics,' which they certainly we...

We had a good few games during open beta last night. I expect we'll be doing the same tonight. It seems to have been fairly well received, although I'm not really sold on it myself. I think my issue is that I've not found a character I'm comfortable with. As we stated above, long ago, the skills are...

Finally got round to watching Natural Born Killers. Possibly the most 90s film I've ever seen, in a good way. Glad I didn't watch it when it came out or I might have been even more of a dick as a teenager.

It's a nice enough cinematic, but there's nothing to judge the game on. Nice, but those Space Marines must be built like Slender Man under their power armour. I like the Eldar. Not that interested in the game, I'm not a fan of base building either.

We had a 5punkers Vs Medium Bots match last night, in the absence of anyone who hates DOTA. I rather enjoyed it, and we made a great comeback to win in the end.

Deathwatch. Not strictly my sort of thing, but Space Hulk is perfect for a L4D style team shooter.

Why does every naval game have to have the word Armada in in these days? Anyway, I bought this the other day and here are my first impressions. I wasn't convinced at first. It looks quite DoWII in the main strategic screen, and kind of plays that way too. Skipping about between threatened or conquer...

Welcome to the last seven years of my gaming life.

A few of us gave this a go during the open beta this weekend. I have to admit, I didn't know anything about it. It looked like a TF2 style class-based team shooter, but I went into it with an open, if slightly disinterested, mind. As it turns out it's more like Evolve, or possibly Warframe. At least...

I really enjoy watching people play the Dark Souls (and BloodBorne) games. They look great and there's the a schadenfreude aspect to it. Perhaps I'll try this one at some point as I hear is the most accessible of the series. This is a good point. I have enjoyed watching that guy in the gif get wtfs...

Hnnngh. I really wish I could get on with DS2. I'm just so utterly shit at it. Like, can't even run in the direction I want to run in.

I now have a brewery set up in my greenhouse, churning out pale ale every few days for a very respectable profit. Also, my wife just asked me if I wanted a baby. Everything's turning up Millhouse on Knobhorse farm. :ahoy: :wronghole: I also found out pigs don't produce milk, although I'm sceptical.
