    The Game Thread!

    Pretty much my thoughts on that subject.

    What was your last purchase

    Seeing as my R.A.T 5 is the best mouse I've ever used, and dabs currently have £40 off the wireless version... :) Plus my current wireless mouse sucks so this is awesome!

    Latest Movie/Tv show you watched

    I didn't think any of that really was homophobic :\ If anything I said came across as such though then I apologize profusely.

    Arrived quick ordered it yesterday arrived today in the post I managed about 50 mins play last night before my eyes felt too heavy lol. Definitely better than the standard version though!
  5. Microtransactions? There is none in Forza 5... There's car packs which are DLC, but you don't actually need them to progress faster or anything. It won't change your gameplay experience if you don't buy any DLC for it. Otherwise, the game is really really good. Forza 4 was probably better, but for a launch title Forza 5 is a great game and you'll get a lot of enjoyment out of it. And comparing it to GT, GT may have a lot more cars, but Forza has gone for the 'quality over quantity' route, and in my opinion it's working very well for them. Isn't DLC another word for Microtransactions? No, DLC to me is something game extending, like new cars and circuits, or a new single player mission, something along those lines. Microtransactions tend to be something along the lines of "pay a bit of cash and get access to highers levels/better weapons/stuff that's already in the game faster". You don't really get anything for the money you pay, but with DLC you actually get something that's adds to the game.

    Same bud, just hoping they give us a pretty cool stretch of tarmac and a badass car to run around in :) The last 2 hours have gone so slowly! And there's still another two to go till I can play Metro 2033 Redux :(

    Oh yea, @Hughesy, have you heard that Forza Horizon 2 is getting a demo 2 weeks before release? :)

    I think I'd also probably regret taking out earplugs around Eddie Jordan.

    The PC Thread

    Yea this one's working really well, and it feels really well built too :) Strange thing about it though, fan 5 is showing 900rpm, while the rest show 800, even though all the fans are identical lol. Plus fan 4 is at 900 too now and won't let me go down to 800 even though it was at that before. Not much of a problem though, still very very quiet! Plus you can turn the fans off from it if you need to, the display can show centigrade or fahrenheit, and there's 7 or 8 different colours the display can switch between :)

    The PC Thread

    Bit of an update! And thread revival :p Just added a new part to my PC and it looks cool B) Also just a fairly recent pic of how it's looking atm.
  12. @Hughesy A wheel for the Xbox doesn't bother me to much :p I'll probably get Project Cars on PC too eventually so I'll race it with your old G27 ;) @dirt3joe Same on the tyre squeal! Always one of my hated things about GT :p
  13. To be honest, I couldn't say Forza has physics like any of the games you mentioned :p It kinda does it's own thing, and while it is kinda sim, it's also arcade enough to be fun. But if I had to answer your question, I'd put it in the middle of both, some GT6, but some Dirt 3 too. But again, it's not really like either :pensive:  Forza on a controller is fine though, I play it with one and I've always been plenty fast on it. Just look at mine and Hughesy's laps in the F1 car in the game thread, we're both using a controller :) And Project Cars will be able to tune the handling to a fashion you like. Forza has something similar too, where you can have an easier setting, or harder setting just for the physics alone.
  14. Ooooh yea, I remember the tokens now :p Tbh, they came up on screen for me once, I pressed to see what it was, decided I'd make do without and it's never come up again since :) So I guess they are there, but they're very unobtrusive.

    The Game Thread!

    Yep ;) I have the older versions on PC but wanted something for my X1, so two games for £28 was a good price for consoles. Could've got it cheaper on PC due to the money off deal. I know how you feel on that. Main reason I'm getting Destiny, FH2, Project Cars, and Far Cry 4 for consoles :) (Though I'll probably get FC4 on PC too) I'm pretty happy with the 50% off for PC! But for £28 on console, and 2 games at that, it really is a good price :) @sjsharp2010 You'll really enjoy them bud. Metro 2033 as it was doesn't feel great to play anymore, but Last Light was a wonderful game. So having 2033 with Last Light's mechanics and improvements is gonna be amazing!

    Played and finished Last light, it's good how the storyline ties in with the ending of 2033. I played it through twice in a row, loved the game :) I ended up buying 2033 again then but it just felt too outdated to play in comparison. So having the Redux version of it is gonna be awesome :)

    The Game Thread!

    Sweet, ShopTo preorder? :)  I've bought the PC version of 2033 Redux, but I only played Last Light about 4 or 5 months ago so haven't bothered with that.

    Prop Hunt on Garrys Mod? If so I was just playing it last night on my Bro's computer. Ton's of fun! That's the one :) It's the only game that's had me dying from laughter in a long long time! Got about 7 hours of footage so far from it that I'll edit and upload sometime :)

    Goddamn I love Prop Hunt! Looked at the clock, it's 9pm, looked again a few minutes later and it's 1am. Far too addictive :)
