  1. *sigh* Australia's world cup is probably over after 13 minutes. 2-0 to Chile. Edit: 2-1 at half time. Surprisingly, Chile went quiet in the last 15 minutes of the half. If Australia can start well in the second half, we can likely at least salvage a draw.
  2. ^Yep, I genuinely think Spain will struggle to beat Australia after this. I've never seen such a second half thrashing of a top team in my life.
  3. PC excites me. No more shitty radio. Awesome music all the time. I do have many, many concerns about how Online is going to work, though. Modders are bad enough on console. PC will be an absolute shit bonanza.

    For me, I'm excited about a higher resolution and fps, as playing GTAV on PS3 for extended periods hurts my eyes and gives me a headache. I assume it's because of the often dodgy framerate. Luckily for me, the game freezes so often, it normally doesn't effect me too badly. I agree that ports are normally unnecessary, and if I wasn't so desperate for a PS4 game, I'd question why they bothered releasing it for the new consoles and not just PC. Every man and his dog has the game.

    It's a shame that I'm more excited by a couple of current-gen ports than anything new that was announced. Bloodborne and No Man's Sky do look good, though.
  6. The extra details is what sells it for me. The hammerhead sharks, for example. That scene with Trevor in the grass. So clear.

    More free to play games. ....Yay. The sony conference is really sucking at the end here.
  9. With the world cup coming soon, I thought I'd create a metal world cup for my own amusement. I started with a group stage, with the top 2 nations from each group progressing to the knockout stage. The bands listed next to each country are a guide only. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1z7YjkjOZiEE5h9TNL8eX6cMGmcx6KtSiHVhvitWGulE/viewform?usp=send_form
  10. This video perfectly sums up my main issue with Watch_Dogs. There's a massive open world, but there's no real reason to explore it, as practically everything is open to you from the start of the game. While this doesn't make the game bad by any means, it is a bit disappointing.
  11. hmmm, there's a heist mode. Intredasting Edit: deep, posted wrong video
  12. While the game was overhyped to all hell, and has quite a few problems (some of which will probably be patched), overall, I don't think it's a bad game, and I'm enjoying it more than the last 2 Saint's Rows and Sleeping Dogs. I'd put it on par with Just Cause 2 in open-world game rankings. I might as well add some more things I've noticed. Most of the online content is good. 1 v 1 hacking is enjoyable in a 'Hide and Seek simulator 2014' kind of way. It's pretty nerve-wracking trying to hide as the search area around you gets smaller and smaller. Online racing is kind of fun. Most of the races have multiple routes you can take (something I wish GTAV would implement), especially the bike races. The downside, of course, is the handling, although I assume I have it more downpat than others, judging by the amount of people who keep missing turns by about 100 metres. Having nitro brings back memories of GTA:SA, too. The dash view while driving is pretty neat, although it's useless until they add the ability to turn your head inside the car, as you can only see what is in front of you, severely hampering your efforts to not be a shopping trolley. Chicago itself is pretty detailed, but only in some areas. If I had the ability to add constant wet weather to the game, I would
  13. Thanks to the share button on my PS4, I picked up this gem...
  14. lol, I jumped on the Watch Dogs wagon so long ago that I got off, established a village, had some kids, killed some natives, assassinated 2 presidents, and fought in 3 wars BEFORE the game was delayed.
  15. I picked up the game today, and my first impressions are basically the same as Dup's. The cars handle very poorly (I liken them to driving 'Saint's row' cars in a Need For Speed open world game), and this is made worse by the dumbass A.I traffic. I must say, though, that the 2 motorbikes I've ridden are much easier to control, and they will be my mode of transport for the foreseeable future. I like that you can listen to music outside of a vehicle, but sadly, the music sucks monkey dick. Graphics wise, only the lighting effects in wet weather stand out for me. Considering I have the PS4 version I was expecting much more. Black Flag looked better. I haven't experienced much of the story and combat, but hopefully they are redeeming features Anyways, here are some pics I took with the PS4 Exciting, no?
  16. I think I've mentioned them before, but I'm really getting into Alarum (a decent Aussie band) again at the moment. Their vocalist might not be to everyone's taste (sounds a bit like that dude from Mastodon), but they are great. I highly recommend their last 2 albums to fans of Cynic, Obscura, Atheist, Rush, Coroner and jazz metal in general.
  17. Found that on reddit. I lol'd I'm a bit surprised the game is coming out so soon after 3. I assume there will be only minor changes to the engine, especially as it's coming out on last-gen consoles. I'm hoping that the story goes back towards the more realistic tone of FC2. Leave the crazy bullshit (giant LSD monsters) for the Blood Dragon sequel. The coolest thing in the announcement is the harpoon gun, and you get it as a pre-order bonus. OF FUCKING COURSE. A few missions and a gun aren't worth paying $20+ for a game (maybe more. Fuck Australian game pricing), so it looks like I'm passing on doing that. Edit: Or not. Just checked the pricing. It will be the same price as the normal version. Pre-ordered dat shit.
  18. I present the first 'volume' of my Vice City-inspired races. Well, as inspired as you can get with the current content available in the creator. All races are 16 player Ghetto Life http://socialclub.ro...platformId=null A GTA PCJ 600 race from the ghetto to the beach Running With The Night http://socialclub.ro...platformId=null Another Vice inspired race. This time, it's a super car tour of the airport, harking back to the days of seeing which was faster, the Infernus or Cheetah Sunglasses At Night http://socialclub.ro...platformId=null A pretty basic lap race. I'll change this one up a bit eventually. It has more vehicles to choose from than the other races, but they are still limited to cars that appeared in Vice City. Yankee Rose http://socialclub.ro...platformId=null A BF Injection GTA race along the beach. Once again, it's a work in progress. Play it while listening to songs from VRock And finally, my favourite Broken Wings http://socialclub.ro...platformId=null Emotion. Lots of emotion as your sanchez repeatedly falls into the water. Fernando suggests you buy her flowers after you've lubed her up And all the races in a playlist, if you feel like torturing yourself. Vice Nights In LS http://socialclub.ro...PMkCs1PxVeOzDRw
  19. Anyone else noticed that random player created jobs are now appearing in the next job menu? Some of my races I haven't touched in months are getting plays, probably because of this. Does this mean an end to every second comment on the newswire being "play mi races, R8 dae is reale gut"? I sure hope so. Nope, R* just removed the verified title from races. My bad.
  20. An idea: Those stupid green icon vehicles in free-roam, that most people don't bother to collect anymore, should come with random modifications (cosmetic ones mostly), so that you have the choice of delivering them to Simeon for 10k+, or keeping it for yourself. At least it would add something extra to do. To be honest, I just want a classical horn, but I refuse to pay the price they are asking.
  21. Did they really have to make the topless/ roofed versions of the Coltic, Banshee, Sentinel etc a seperate purchase? Why can't it just be a $50,000 mod or something? I'd really like to stop complaining about this update, but I keep noticing shit.
  22. Yeah. I also noticed all free cars, except the elegy, aren't free anymore, although r* says this is a mistake.
  23. I don't know if affects everyone, but it seems that now when your car gets destroyed by another player, both players have to pay insurance. Hopefully it's just an oversight by R*, because I can't afford to be paying insurance all the time.
  24. Sold my fully modded Phoenix and Cheetah. Bought a Turismo. My garage is now Sultan Tailgater Buffalo Rat loader Ruiner Turismo Jester Coquette F620 I'm finally going to invest in some bikes and off-road vehicles when i get my new garage
  25. My chick needs those leggings. Only just noticed today that the UFO makes a sound. Dat sunrise The pier never fails to impress me.
