  1. You should have used his real name instead - then you could have said the eponymous Hieronymus Bosch
  2. Quick heads up. Just went to get this (as a Xmas present from the good lady wife) and it's currently available in a flash sale on Amazon for £30 instead of £50. Which was nice.
  3. I think that's all fine - for me, I buy a lot of music and go to a lot of gigs to support the artists I like. But I also like the convenience of being able to walk into the kitchen / bedroom and shout at Alexa to put some Sleaford Mods on while I make a bit of lunch / tidy up.
  4. Yeah, I think like many people I'll wait for a bug free / shiny PS5 version. Although having read the reviews and general backlash, it seems even with the whistles and bells it's still a missed opportunity.
  5. Yeah, the wife was getting me this for Xmas. I've changed my request to Fenyx Rising.
  6. In that case, what if there's someone who does act like that in a supermarket, but they've had the vaccine? All you'd end up with is some sweaty goods (oo-er).
  7. As long as he still gets to sing 'IT'S CHRISTMAS!!!' every year then it's fine with me.
  8. This has been taken off my Xmas List for the time being - not gonna lie I'm pretty bloody disappointed.
  9. It's not too bad apart from the Mind Flayers. Keep them at a distance with a bow or spells and they can be picked off easier.

    New Music 2020

    Ah cheers, had no idea they had released a new one.
  11. As long as we get Shattered Glass Hayden instead of AOTC Hayden we'll be fine
  12. What an utterly reprehensible word removed Davidson is. On one hand that's a great review, but on the other it's **** depressing. Anyway, funny pics...
  13. To the bloke in the wheelchair who stole my camo suit, you can hide but you can't run.
  14. I hope you both get a new position soon. That sort of working environment shouldn't exist in this day and age, and it boils my piss that some arseholes think it's ok to treat people like that. rocket polishers.
  15. Not sure if it's just me and my playstyle, but the difficulty level across the zones in NG+ seems a little borked. There seems to be a disparity between the scaling difficulty of the areas compared to NG which is annoying the fook out of me at the moment. For instance, the mobs in Smithing Grounds seem to cause a ridiculous amount of damage, and yet I breezed through the Island's Edge mobs with barely any issues. Total reversal from NG. In previous Souls games, you could be confident that the scaling difficulty would be uniform across all NG phases, but this just seems a little random to me. As I said, might be my setup/playstyle but I'm finding it irritating.
  16. This (Persona 5) is free on PS Plus now for PS5 owners.
  17. I think The Mandolorian is utterly brilliant. Firstly, they got the look and feel spot on - it's got the angular, scruffy, weighty look that the original trilogy had. The characters, although not the most in-depth, are all well done and feel part of the universe. There's plenty of fan service - OK, there's a metric **** tonne of the stuff and your mileage may vary on how much you enjoy that - personally really like it (I geeked out like a bitch this week ) The storylines are interesting enough, with some great 'villain of the week' episodes all contained within an overall story arc. The nods (more like neck-breaking headbutts) to the western genre are great if like me, you enjoy that genre - Sergio would approve I'm sure. The most important thing for me though, is that every time I watch an episode I do it with a smile on my face. It takes me back to old Saturday/Sunday afternoon shows of my youth like The A-Team and Airwolf but wrapped up in a contemporary Star Wars world. Even the outro graphics (beautiful) remind me of the old weekly shows where freeze frames from the episode were used as a backdrop to the closing credits. This is the Star Wars universe that gave me such a rush at age 6 and imo it outshines everything made since the original trilogy (I like a lot of the newer trilogy and the spin offs, but they haven't given me the same feel). Favreau has done a superb job - let's hope he can keep up the quality.
