The GF has threads for upcoming films and TV shows, so the TNF should really have a gaming equivalent. I originally posted this in the PlayStation 4 thread, however it makes sense to me to post it in here as well to kick off the thread. Middle-earth: Shadow of War has been officially announced and is scheduled to release on the 22nd of August. Announcement trailer below, with the gameplay reveal due on March 8th.

I see loads of people asking about this, and to be honest I installed it about six months ago after reading about it on here and just kind of flailed around at it not knowing what I was doing, so it's probably best to have a thread explaing what it is, because it's great to use and way better than using torrents imo, so here goes. You can use it for different things, but essentially I, and I suspect most others, will use it for streaming TV shows and movies, often in HD. You can sign up for lots of individual streaming sites but the idea of XBMC is it's a media centre so you can stream all these films and TV shows through XBMC without having to sign up to all the indi…

Quite fancy buying a new TV for the living room, it's been a while since my last one since it's been a real warhorse. Can't decide between these two:- https://www.richersounds.com/tv-projectors/all-tvs/panasonic-tx55hz1000b.html https://www.richersounds.com/tv-projectors/all-tvs/sony-bravia-ke55a8bu.html Anyone got any advice? Samsung are out at this price range because that's their 2020 panels which have problems with juddering and shit. Gonna go to Richer Sounds and take a look at them in the wild too but if anyone has any experience to add that would be sound.

Anyone decided to return/still got vinyl? As much as I love Spotify(especially at the price here) I also hate it. My vinyl days finished when a Daughters ex stole and sold my full collection from "This is soul" to Springsteen boxset. This after we'd paid for the cunt to move from London, put a roof over his head and fed him! Anyway I long to return to vinyl and have been looking at what's out there in turntables. Bit disappointed with what I've seen. One review gave rave review on how good one was but listed 'lack of Bluetooth to rip the music from record!' Surely that defeats the object?

I’m dabbling with ai art - just on the iPhone at the moment. Anyone know of a decent AI art app that is a one time purchase? I detest the subscription model that has taken over the app world.

A new thread to discuss IPTV with no mention of that old provider some of us used. I imagine this thread will be pretty quiet, now most of us are settled on the same one. Any long term members of the site looking to swap stupid Sky/Virgin bills for solid IPTV services, post in here and we’ll attend to your needs.

Eh? What about it? Controversial twist on a popular thread. Probably a few rules like demos don't count and if you've only played it for 30 minutes that doesn't count either. If you can review and describe games that you've completed, that may make for a more complete experience although I understand that bad games generally don't get completed because they're, y'know, bad.

https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/20/24159258/microsoft-recall-ai-explorer-windows-11-surface-event No, I don't want my every action on a PC recorded, you over-intrusive fuckers. Especially not if I'm looking at files inside an encrypted archive, or putting my log in details into my bank's website or watching Alsatian Anal on my streaming service of choice.

Sony's new multiplayer GAAS, 5v5 hero shooter is a complete disaster by all accounts. Concurrent player numbers on Steam have collapsed in the first week to double figures, as low as 56 at one point, and players have been reporting long waits for games on the PS5. Industry analysts reckon that the game has barely moved 25K units and has a likely cost well above £100 million- it was in development for over 8 years and the dev team was around 170 strong by the end, plus they'd committed to expensive CGI YouTube videos weekly. Its revenue so far probably barely breaks £1 million, which won't even cover the cost of servers and maintenance. The usual culture wars a…

http://Ninten.do/6184889Qg Looks a good idea to me. I don't really have time to play games at home but if I could take a console with me travelling, I'd be all for it. I like Nintendo games, they are fun to pick and play. The elongated PS4 & Xbox games bore me. Not looked at the proper specs but assume they don't compare to a PS4 or XBox. Those graphics on Zelda loom similar to the Wii. Wonder how long the batteries on the portable bit last?

Rumours of a 2021 release, but that it will only be available for the next gen consoles. Talk of the new game being set in Liberty City, San Andreas and best of all Vice City. If one game will tempt to part with my hard earned cash for a next gen console, it's this. https://www.newsweek.com/gta-6-leak-liberty-vice-city-san-andreas-1410557

I'll post more when I've got time but this is one of my favourites, though it isn't quite top of the list: [YOUTUBE]hOB4q01VCVg&list=FLzgcd42v4UivT0ok-ZNvPfw&index=57[/YOUTUBE] I used to get fired up just starting the game up. Brilliant theme, shame they decided to ruin it for BF3.

What a beautiful game this is. I rarely play games but loved it when it came out and ended up selling it. But I bought it again recently and just fancied something I could pick up and play, and it's just stunning. I can't think of another game where you can just sit there and look at it the way you can with this, but the sight of Marston on his horse just wandering through the prairie is jaw dropping. Love this song too, from when you first get to Mexico. Also, what did people make of The Strange Man? Do you reckon he was Marston's conscience or the Devil/Fate?

Who else had one of these godly possessions? I was of the 600 generation. Even the name is fucking superb. What have they got these days? The playstation and the xbox. What a load of shite that sounds. People have been paid top dollar to come up with names like that and they are fucking awful. I was just reading a review of Cannon Fodder 3 Cannon Fodder 3 review – insensible software | Metro.co.uk By the way if you want the best reviews of any game use the metro site. It's the old gamecentral team from C4 teletext headed by a guy who used to write for Eurogamer. They are brutal when all the other shithouses like Gamespot shit out because of sponsors…

A thread on this seemed like the best idea seeing as the rate the last game thread has had a lot of Cyberpunk in it lately and also because I'm kind of alone here at the moment in thinking it's an awesome game despite the bugs and lack of other stuff a lot of players expected (so if nothing else I can at least ramble a bit here instead and then leave it.) That's maybe down to my own liking of cyberpunk scifi even outside of games but also two other things : after it finally got revealed at E3 I was also hyped but eventually cooled off on it because I thought the hype had got out of hand. The other thing being that I never expected it to be a GTA-like game, and I think CDP…

I actually had an Atari XE back in the day, and used to love this game I had called Henry's House. Prince Henry had been shrunk and had to fend for himself in Buckingham Palace, while negotiating various traps like moving slippers and running taps, it was far more fun than it sounded! Honurable mentions for: Joe Blade, sideways shoot em up. And Spy Vs Spy Two player trap-setting heaven!

Had one of these ready to buy on the day of release for my grandson but got talked out of it by my daughter as she wanted to get him one for Xmas. Stupidly listened to her and now they’re impossible to get hold of. However, after scouring European game stores for hours last night, I went back to play station direct and after getting to Spain, discovered they’ve got them in stock. Only problem is, you need to get them sent to a Spanish address as won’t ship to uk. So if youve got any family or friends with a gaff out there, or going on holiday, get it sent and ask them to post over or bring home if visiting for Xmas . Still be cheaper than…
