    I hate PC gaming. I tried to install GTR as I didn't give it much attention back in 2004 when I bought it. It does not work on anything past Windows XP.

    Can't you run it in compatibility mode or whatever it's called?

    I tried it very shortly. Is there anything else beyond boot it to your best striker and shoot?

    You can try but the game thinks you're short of the required 32MBs of memory. It looks at my 4GBs of video ram and questions if it's even a number. There's a config fiddle that seems to work for the steam version but not the original copy which I have.

    I was frequently up against teams of 5 defenders and didn't have room for that and reliably score. I found that making come out and tackle you is the key to being in reliable scoring positions.

    Can't believe they made two Kane and Lynch games but never made a sequel to Freedom Fighters.

    It was perfectly set up for a sequel too, with the glum ending Firaxis called canon but didn't actually put into their first XCOM game.

    I don't know how to use the layoff pass and I'm being a proper mong lately by constantly drawing 0-0 to try and score a header for 30k.

    Edit: Just did it Shame it was in a match the day after the fucking window closes.

    I just don't know if I wanna spend £16 on it, but I probably should. It would definitely eat all my spare time.

    I almost want to play it out of sheer curiosity now. Is every opinion I've ever heard about this game wrong or are you mental?

    Its score on metacritic is 66%. It's not awful at all. I'm not saying it's brilliant but it's decent and I really enjoyed it. It's only about £4 on Steam, you might as well try it.

    A 6/10 on metacritic is basically just a confirmation that the game works when you put it in the disc tray. The only website that I've heard of that gave it above a 7 is Game Informer. I really might have to try it.

    BTW I'm not saying you're wrong or your opinion is inferior in any way, just interesting.

    I'm not taking any offence or anything. I know it's not a great game. But it doesn't have to be great to be enjoyable. It probably lost marks in reviews due to having the XCOM name but not being anything like other XCOM games as well though.

    Just give it a go.

    I now have Vermintide but trying to do anything semi-twitchy with my gimp wrist* is a no-go until the cast is off. But I'm ready.

    * "The gimp wrist" can equally apply to my feeble left hand or the right hand with the cast on.

    I like to platinum all the PS4 games I play. Ive completed the single-player portion of the game. GT Sport has three specific trophies which involve:

    Getting 65 pole positions
    Getting 91 race wins
    Completing 322 races

    This would be easy in single player but the trophies must be done online against other human opponents which are going to take an age and it's going to be extremely difficult and frustrating. The way online works is, there is a set number of races available per day it appeaers. Races are a minimum of 15 minutes long and there are 3 races per hour

    I played a level of it. It's odd, not awful but I feel like I should be able to mow everyone down considering how bad they are at standing behind cover.

    Mario Tennis on the other hand is absolutely wild. It's like Tennis meets Street Fighter.

    After a further 21 races, I'm now on two race wins, four pole positions and three fastest laps. My ranking has increased so the opponents I'm being matched up with are now better, and im finishing outside the top 10 on a regular basis. May need to downgrade my rank by retirning from races so it puts me back in with the newbs.

    It's a slightly odd fish but it looks fine and is well on the way to being what I expected, a bog standard solid 7/10 shooter.

    I know that no-one particularly care for ESPORTS but a 16 year old Italian just became the first non-Korean to get to a GSL (the Premier StarCraft 2 tournament) knockout round in 7 years. He was bought a plane ticket to South Korea for his 16th birthday, qualified and just knocked out the 2nd best player in the world.

    He was 8 when the game came out.
