  • So if you had been trapped your while life in an open air prison camp. With limited food and water, electricity for just a few hours a day, and being bombed regularly, you would just sit back and accept that that was the way of the world?

    Or would you fight back?

    I don’t think any of us can say how we would react if we were Palestinian, but my gut feeling is, that having watched women and children killed in bombings for two decades, we would probably say all bets are off and do exactly what Hamas have done





  • Or what are some films that are significantly better than the book they were adapted

    One of my favourite books, High Fidelity. I think I am in the age range and demo it was written for, so much rings true. When I heard there was a film coming out I was so excited, and then I read it was being moved from London and re-set in Chicago, and my heart sank.

    Boy was I wrong. John Cusack was great, Todd Louiso was histerical, and it was Jack Black’s breakout performance. (I honestly am not sure he has been funnier since)

    And the Chicago setting 100% worked, better than London would have





  • This has blown my brain. I have never considered doing the diagonal first.

    But then, my entire life I mounted a bicycle from the left, right leg over first. It occurred to me I did this so tried to mount my bike from the opposite direction. After finally figuring out how to even move my left left over the bars, I then fell over.

    So based purely on this experience, I shall continue to do forward, followed by diagonal.







  • Survivor was a massive disappointment for me. It was the game I bought with my PS5, and ended up quitting halfway through because of the bounty hunter bug.

    Waited a month for that to be fixed, fired it up to continue, holomap completely vanished.

    So it’s back on the backlog again. Thank God the other game I bought with my PS5 (rift apart) was just great.

    That’s before we get into the navigation somehow being worse than fallen order. No minimap, no compass, and maps that are nigh on impossible to follow

    Honestly I would be fine with EA never releasing another star wars game.

    I am looking forward to the Ubi one though
