    Discuss and Rate the Last Film You Watched

    I rewatched Rogue One after having finished Andor, and my opinion on the film hasn't really changed. The first 20 minutes are paced at a breakneck speed, then it really slows down toa crawl for the next hour or so, and then as soon as they start flirting with the idea of going to Scarif, it...

    Discuss and Rate the Last Thing You Watched (non-movies)

    I feel the same way about Season 2. The moment-to-moment was still really good, but I feel like it is definitely missing a lot of those really powerful moments, aside from Ghorman. If I had one major criticism though, I think it is pretty sad that Bix was just kind of relegated to being a...

    Just got back from watching a re-release of 28 Days Later at the cinema. Its a great film, but let me tell you, sitting in the front row really exposes the fact that this film was shot in sub-HD.

    General Gaming News.

    Im just reading up on all of the Marathon controversies, and I have to ask, has there been a game in recent memory that has had negative pre-release sentiment, and actually succeeded? Deserved or not, but Marathon is seemingly the next target, and I just don't see this working out well for Bungie.

    I've picked back up Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, which I briefly played back in 2020, but I never sunk any significant time into it. I would probably describe the game as a much easier Souls-like, crossed with a metroidvania. And this is interesting for me, because I typically try to avoid...

    Finished Hi-Fi Rush. It is clearly a very special game. I just wish I liked spectacle fighters more, so I could have properly appreciated it for what it is. Dropping it down to easy was definitely the best option for me. I probably would have dropped it otherwise.

    I'm currently playing some Hi-Fi Rush. Its cute, but I don't really vibe with character action games all that much. It may well detract from the overall experience, but I might just whack this down to Easy and blast through the combat.

    Did a very quick replay of the Star Wars: Battlefront 2 (2017's) campaign, because I fancied some quick Star Wars action. The presentation is frankly incredible, but the gameplay is pretty lame. You play as an Imperial soldier just after the end of RotJ, who (after about two missions) realises...

    Replaying The Last of Us Part 1, but this time on PC. I got the game roughly about when it launched, but stayed clear because I heard of the terrible PC performance. But now that I have finally gotten around to playing it, on my 3080/7600x, im cranking out 100+ FPS on max settings at 1440p...

    Out of interest (and im not sure that you have the stats) how many people register to join? How many of them become actual contributing members? This has become quite a tight-nit group. I can't really remember the last time I saw a new face around here.

    This forum has been active for about two decades, and survived crisis after crisis. It would be a crying shame if uncontrollable bot spam is the thing that finally makes this forum unusable.

    I've been playing some Marvel Rivals to scratch that Overwatch 2 itch, and I've been having a lot of fun with it! Unfortunately, just like with Fortnite, I've been experiencing some crashing issues, which apparently a known issue, which can be resolved by reverting back to a video driver from...

    Between Far Cry 5 and New Dawn, whoever is writing these games really needs to find a way to tell their stories without having your interactions with the antagonists be either radio conversations, or "I could kill you right now... but I wont".
