    Oh 100%, the movie industry loves a good cash grab, or remaking perfectly good old movies rather than coming up with new ideas. Games do it as well, but the difference is that largely the game remakes are successful, because they keep the core game and improve the art/graphics (few exceptions...

    What Games Are You Playing?

    I've been playing games on and off for years, problem is a lot of the older titles I was interested in I have usually played by now. So much stuff gets made that I try and be a little selective on what I put my time/money into. I generally prefer newer games because I like how good the graphics...

    Game looks fun, I'm in the middle of a few other things though, but will probably check it out after release at some point!

    Elden Ring I completed my first run of Elden Ring, Malenia was a pain but I had to get some more DPS and change a couple of things around to kill her. Might be a spicy opinion, but I prefer the combat of Sekiro, Elden Ring wins in terms of atmosphere and exploration though, and presumably build...

    Yeah I think it's like anything though, spend on things you enjoy/use, for example if you love coffee, an expensive coffee machine is probably a good thing to get, high performance GPU are like that. Some people might be happy with instant coffee, some people may like it enough to get a basic...

    That's really good, usually feel like I'm doing OK if I'm on sub £10 pcm SIMO plan with a few GB of data, guess this is cheaper by a little due to less mins/texts, but who really spends much time making calls or texting people when you have WhatsApp and similar these days? I'm with BT currently...

    I always go Nvidia, more expensive but I find them more reliable and given the market share is so high, most developers seem to focus on them vs AMD hardware. it's odd though as in console space I think Sony/Microsoft usually use AMD cards in their consoles!

    For sure you can go cheaper, but if you want the best of the best, the 4090 exists :cool: Depends on budget etc, I use my PC a lot so don't mind spending a bit more on it, also have 3440 * 1440 ultrawide that can do 165 fps I think (though tbh for most things 100 or so is good enough). I got...

    Killer spec nice one! I am hoping to do my next system update with the 5090, I can see those being £2K though! :oops:

    Nice! what spec? Looks like a decent one based on the size of that GPU :)

    I've completed GoW Valhalla, a fun little free DLC, very similar to the mist stuff we had in the previous God of War. I'm up to Malenia in Elden Ring now, which my friend tells me I must kill before I complete my first run. Counting the tries (15 so far)! If anyone is considering pre-ordering...

    I think so! try changing to natural mode for now and disabling the stuff that changes the colours, one of them makes stuff warmer.

    How're you finding it? Vivid mode seems broken, so I'm using Natural at the moment, I'm hoping they can add some updates/patches as some people said the camera wasn't great either. I think the hardware is good but needs updates to tweak things a little, which I'm sure will come. Sound quality...

    Yep so on the back of it being a great deal and the other things I mentioned it was worth it for sure. I don't think I'd have felt quite the same if I was paying the RRP though as that was around double my price. See this link about the updates: You'll be OK I think for a bit longer, but I...

    I was also still happy with my S10+ but there was two reasons I made the swap. One was that the S10+ (and presumably your Note 10+) is EOL so it gets no more Android updates anymore, this includes security fixes. As I do things like internet banking on my phone, I wanted to make sure I was...

    Not many do, it's usually not a good sign of how good the game is though! Some older ones can just by virtue of being old. I picked up Vermintide 2 on PC from CD keys last night for £2.20 for example. Super cheap, had fun playing it with some friends though.

    Box art looks cool of nothing else! I'm sure I watched or saw something else talking about mato recently though I don't know what it is.
