Hello all,
Had a pleasant BDT with some oakham scarlet macaws last night. My body feels heavy today.
Played some more of Control. This game is really great for atmosphere. Russ Abbott's mad house levels of atmosphere.

Hello. Games, no. Telly, the usual pap. Ottm? I had a game of tennis yesterday, and today I have a headache. silcox: I played Control earlier this year and even completed it. It's pretty good fun, though the story is clearly something they came up with after a few too many Finnish mushrooms. Watch out for the level near the end (chapter 9 maybe) where they change the soundtrack from creepy-Cthulhu to 80s Hair Metal without warning. That's the best bit. |

Good morning,
I sacked off work this morning and went and played golf. One of the guys playing behind us was former Portsmouth player and manager Andy Awford. He gave me some #bantz when I hooked a tee shot. I should have given him some back about him giving away the free kick that lead to Liverpools late equaliser in the '92 Cup semi final, but by the time I'd thought of that the moment had passed.
Cool story etc.
No games.

I've spent the morning arguing with someone on Instagram about the morals and legality go shooting down an Argentine Hercules transport plane during the Falklands conflict.
I probably should have spent more time working so that we didn't process naff data.
Oh well, priorities.

F76 is a lot better with the Wastelanders update, it is still full of bugs and cheaters, still worth plying for the story line, not much of an endgame, worth it for free. |

I'd probably only play the storyline part. I'll end up using the Xbox controller I'd imagine so pointless playing against folk.
Know what I love? Folk shouting at you from upstairs...
You go up to see what they want..
for them to remind you to do something they actually called you away from doing.
Love that. Never tire of it.

Morning. < Looks at watch > Oh.
Games: all the Fortnite wins.
OTTM: Busy at work as the current plan is to absorb the work of everyone who leaves into my own work load.

I know it's not solo mode per-se. I've only ever played solo, PvP is optional, you can set passive mode in the settings also there is a perk called "lone Wanderer" which gives you benefits playing alone. |

Afternoon.
I'm in the same boat as Babyfark, as I have previously lamented. Although in my case it's not people leaving, but being made 'redundant' so the new CEO can bring his mates in as executive dicks directors, on 6 figure salaries. Oh well, not like I have 18 months of backed up development to do. Fml.
In other news, finished second dungeon in P5R. Boss was piss easy compared to the first. Possibly just down to not needing to use the cat any more. Also lost 5 hours worth of play due to not saving often enough and missing far too many skill points to ignore.
Edit: F76 chat. I quite enjoyed what I played of it, and that was pre- updates. I think that was largely due to only paying ~£5 for it though. If I'd have paid full price I might've thought differently.

I'll keep an ear out I love Remedy games. And hearing Sam Lake's voice took me back to the old max payne days. Now to plan for BDF... |

Enjoying a coldie whilst watching the last few overs. Some superb bowling from the WI quicks and, so far, well played by the openers.
Supermarket Jalfrezi and Naans shortly.
TLOU2 later.

Morning all!
Been on the Deadly premonition 2. Best game ever made. I’m already confused about when any of it is taking place and the dialogue is absolutely top shelf material.
Work - 2 hour conference call, but with cameras turned off and mics muted, the way god intended. Actually got some work done.
BDF - TB
