    Hollow Knight is an absolute fucking masterpiece. Its essentially a modern day Super Metroid. Wonderful.

    Modern day Super Metroid might as well be faint praise as there are a billion of those.

    Dark Souls remastered is well and truly out of the bag.



    If you only have a console, it's fine. I would really like From to give it to PC owners at a discount like they did with Scholar of the First Sin.

    A 21 year old Overwatch League player has just been suspended for trying to have sex with a 14 year old who has uploaded the entire thing in screenshots.

    The guy has lost out on 50-100k a year base salary (so excluding any advertising deals/streaming money he'd make, probably another 100k a year minimum) to try bang a 14 year old.

    I'm gonna guess not. The screenshots are of twitter conversations. Here's a pro tip for Baz: When chasing children, don't have them refer to you as 'daddy'.

    Summat for ya to aim for Boyd:



    Three bad holes. Basically to go proper low you need to master Tour clubs, which are about eight times as sensitive as standard clubs and four times as sensitive as pro clubs. Then its time to learn the math!

    Dark Souls Remastered is getting bought. I can't push my PC to 1080p without some serious witchcraft. I've whacked some texture mods which look nice but you really notice when the game has to pull them in. Still not sure what to make of them putting a new bonfire in before the Bonewheel run.

    Hole is say 170 yards up 9 feet, the distance to the actual hole is 173 yards, 210 down 15, distance to hole is 205(ish, its trickier downhill). That's all dependent on club as well as naturally a wood will carry more than say an 8 iron. Account for roll out which depends on green speed and club, then account for wind, and then all you have to do is hit it straight. Putting is for every inch uphill go 1.5 extra feet, for every inch downhill, go one foot shorter, again dependent on green speed. For the slowest greens (101 you'd want to double that math for uphill, halve for downhill). For fastest (187) you'll want to double the amount taken off for downhill. Then account for break, again dependent on green speed - slower = less break played, faster = more break played. Those are the bare basic rules.

    Headwind of say 10mph with a 7iron you'll want to add 15-18 to your shot. Same headwind with a 3wood you'll add about 8.

    So say 210 yards to the hole down 15 feet with a 5mph tailwind on 164 greens. You're hitting a stock 4 iron to rollout past the hole, a lofted 3 iron to get more carry but less roll, or a slightly delofted 5 iron to roll it right next to the pin. Depends if rollout will be uphill or downhill of course.

    Then win the game. Sounds a lot but its easy as once you've got it down.

    I've been feeling the same way for the past year. I keep hoping it'll drop to a justifiable price but it still hasn't. Meanwhile I keep seeing great deals on the Xbox One but it's got fuck all games I want to play.

    I heard a rather daft rumour GAME have been told by Sony to send their PSPro consoles so they can be repainted ready for God of War.

    In other news, Yakuza 6 is out on Tuesday. Beat Takeshi's in it. And some Japanese wrestlers of some repute.

    Sounds like the next gen is going to be in 2020 as well, I'm not sure I can justify buying a console having just spent a grand on this PC set-up.

    I have no TV, my monitor is 4k but it's not HDR so there's no point getting a Pro. I pretend I'll buy a second hand one when the next consoles come out but I said that about the PS2 and 3, I own both and I've probably played a grand total of an hour or two.

    Yeah but I'm not dropping 400 quid + games on what, 5-10 exclusives across the entire cycle?

    I have a switch because it's like nothing a PC will ever do and has Nintendo games. A Playstation is still just a crap PC with a couple of sclusies in my mind.

    God of War
    Persona 5
    Last of Us 2
    Uncharted 4
    Bloodbourne
    Until Dawn
    The Kojima Game
    Spiderman


    3 of those aren't even out yet and I don't want to play at least 3 of them either. Can't justify it.

    That's kinda terrifying if that new consoles are that close. It fits how long the last gen went, though. And the heavy chatter about them was going on for two or three years.

    Quickly enough for them to bring out the half-steps, too. Yakuza 6 is ordered. £20 cheaper than digitally because of a tenner's worth of clubcard points.

    They could if they concentrated on making decent games rather than catering to graphics wankers.

    Not seen anything concrete. Just a 'we're thinking about it' from Sega. I've also just had my mind blown. The little kid from the first game is now 22. The series has gone on for that long.

    OH! Both Shenmue games are coming to PC and console.

    I watched a playthrough of Shenmue 1. Looked like one of the worst games ever made.

    I bought Destiny 2 and For Honor in a 2 for 20 quid deal.

    My favourite "that was a bit shit" thing about the first Shenmue was how nobody in town knew anything you needed to know but, oddly, ALWAYS knew who you should ask.

    I don't think I got past the section quite close to the start where you had to get a job and spend some considerable time lifting boxes around the docks.

    Even worse, Tom tells you he has no idea where the docks are. First person you see at the docks when you get there is Tom.

    The second game has it's share of absolutely shocking bits as well. That bit walking by the river at the end feels like an eternity, and then there are the balance beams in that apartment block.
