@Knightsofthepac @lil_gasmask I was looking at the wrong pack anyway its £27

@Waylander73 @lil_gasmask I'm from the US so it's $29.99 plus whatever the state tax is

Mad Ellie DLC Half the size I was hoping No side vault Ending felt abrupt and was waiting for real final boss that never happened. Half of the promised 18 bosses are locked behind random rift events that seemingly don’t spawn. 9 dedicated drops on those bosses… Pickle………….

@EpicNNG Feels like should've been a tenner

For 30 dollars, I cannot be mad at anyone who feels the need to skip this.

I have finished DLC 1 for Borderlands 4 Review will go up in the next week, but my first impressions are that it wasn't very good, and felt like more of the same. Had it featured some reason to return (new endgame) I would be more inclined to like it. Oh well :/

@Knightsofthepac @lil_gasmask Isn't it £45

@lil_gasmask I know the obvious answer from this post but $30 not worth it?

@exQUIZitely Loved those game. Blocking in the growing amoeba so its trapped and then it turned into diamonds. Absolute game changer when I learnt that I could dig a space next to me by holding the button down (no manual).

Let's teleport back 42 years... Boulder Dash was an action-puzzle game released in 1984 by First Star Software. You play as Rockford, a miner, digging through dirt to collect diamonds while racing against a time limit. Sounds simple? Well, it wasn't. The genius lies in the realistic physics: boulders (and other objects) stay put until you remove the dirt beneath them, at which point they fall, potentially crushing you or enemies. You must strategically dig paths, drop rocks to kill enemies or create new diamonds, and reach the exit without getting squished. The game's title was a pun on "balderdash" (meaning nonsense). In 2011, Boulder Dash was included in the Smithsonian's "The Art of Video Games" exhibition. It's one of those rare timeless gems, maybe not quite on the same level as Lode Runner or Pac Man, but I'm sure that you played Boulder Dash if you were a gamer in the 80s.

@lil_gasmask All I wanted was map unlocks, SDU and backpack sizes and vehicle and customization.

we cant even start at level 1 no more XD. all teh cross progression challenges are checking off and giving XP. REALLY should have been a toggle man.

@cosmaslucy06 Dave Fell has some absolute bangers

Do you think this meal would be delicious?🤤🤔

@TheCinesthetic Crossing my legs inadvertantly, instinctively and uncontrollably already!

@exQUIZitely Of those it would be Shogun. The one I played most was Talisman. Had the original box and all expansions that I left in the attic when I moved house 🤦 Another game that had a board and an electronic centrepiece was Dark Tower which was amazing.

Some multiplayer options for the time when Skynet decides to cut off power for us mere mortals... These 4 games were part of my childhood and youth. The older I get, the more I am drawn back to these types of games. Even in older-style multiplayer computer games, the social factor - your friends hanging out with you - was always the deciding one. It was what made the games a thousand times better. Scotland Yard, Hero Quest, Risk, and Shogun were hugely popular among my group of friends. Many weekend evenings spent, lots of fond memories of that time. Not sure if board games are on the decline, on the rise, or maybe mean nothing at all to the younger generation, but they will always hold a very special place in my heart. If you had to pick one from your time, which comes to mind first?

@everymovieplug As a stand alone movie 6/10, part of the franchise a 5/10. Pretty slow going and quite frankly uneccesary.

If you’ve watched, gracefully rate it out of 10.

@exQUIZitely Still amazed that nobody has redone Battlechess and sold skin packs for it with major IPs. I guess licensing would be prohibitively expensive nowadays.

How do you take one of humanity's oldest games - a game long stigmatized as difficult to learn, even harder to master, and mostly played by introverted nerds - and turn it into a fun, hugely successful computer game for the masses? Enter Battle Chess. Yes, you still had to know (or learn) the rules to actually play. But let's be honest: it's far more enjoyable to learn while playing - and even losing - when you watch your queen dramatically devoured by an enemy rook, or your king comically flattened under its fist. Each encounter had its own animation, beautifully done. Obviously, there's no hard data on how many kids and teens in the 80s and early 90s first got hooked on chess thanks to this wonderful game. But I know I was one of them. Battle Chess sparked my interest, led me to join a chess club in 1989, play in a few tournaments (I never won), and still enjoy the game today. I'd like to believe I wasn't the only one. I often feel that pre-2000 games had a bigger positive impact on us than many modern (mobile) games do on kids today. I'm not claiming all current games are worthless - far from it - but I'll stand firm on this hill: older titles sometimes delivered real educational value without players ever feeling like they were being "taught" something. Battle Chess was exactly that kind of game.

@tigertunesusa @exQUIZitely Correct, Archon is one of my all time favourite games of that era. Something strangely satisfying about running rings around the lumbering Golem using a Goblin casually bonking him on the head repeatedly. Also Unicorn was OP!

@exQUIZitely I preferred Archon. You had to actually battle and win a space. At least I think I remember that being the case.

@exQUIZitely Valk if playing solo otherwise whoever was left

Elf shot the food! One of the best 4 player arcade games ever made. Oh, the quarters... the many, many quarters. Who was your pick: Warrior, Valkyrie, Wizard, or Elf?

@FPL_Harry Down to 10 then Fuck this season, worst in all my years of playing and not sure why.

Ekitike off injured & VVD CS wipeout…

@TheMonologist Classic

@OfSelina Interested to hear your take on it because it got panned but I genuinely enjoyed it. Not quite as good as Prey but had more humour.

Oooh PREDATOR: BADLANDS is on Disney+ Gonna go watch

@HLTCO @PeterCrouchPod Love it and as a lifelong Saints fan 100% agree, miss The Dell too - yeah I am old.

Love this from Danny Dyer on @PeterCrouchPod. 👏

@DiscussingFilm he will get to the pearly gates and raise an eyebrow and St Peter will send him straight back down

Chuck Norris has passed away at the age of 86.

@TheMonologist Great film, a real gem of a modern western. I watched it for the first time probably ten years after it's release. Somehow it just passed by me for nearly a decade.

@TheMonsterTrain Is there a date for console version updates?

Patch 2.2 for Monster Train 2 is out now on Steam! Real the full announcement for details on the latest bug fixes, balance changes, and quality of life improvements.

@elonmusk @SaP011 Castrated first

@SaP011 They should be executed

Her name was Leonie, she was a 13-year-old Austrian girl. While she was out with friends, 3 Afghan immigrants secretly put 11 ecstasy pills in her drink. Stunned and unable to defend herself, she was taken to the house of one of the three. The ecstasy dose was way too high, the girl started overdosing but the 3 immigrants, completely indifferent to her suffering, began to undress her and took turns raping her, putting their hands around her neck, strangling her. All of it recorded by themselves on a mobile phone video. That’s how Leonie died, naked, in atrocious suffering, while the beasts raped her. The autopsy would later confirm the cause of death was triple overdose and asphyxiation. When they were done, they wrapped the body in a carpet and dumped it roadside, under a tree. The girl’s body was found the next morning by some passers-by, wearing only her underwear and with clear strangulation marks on her neck. One of the perpetrators fled to the United Kingdom, but was quickly tracked down in a hotel and extradited, the 3 Afghans were sentenced: - Zubaidullah R. life imprisonment; - Ali H. 19 years in prison; - Ibraulhaq A. 20 years in prison. During the closing arguments, the Public Prosecutor told the court she was “stunned” by what the defendants said throughout the proceedings, stating that “there is not a trace of remorse”.
