So my children have an XBONE. So I figured I might as well take advantage of it and play Forza. It just so happens that Forza 5 is free this month on XBOX Live. So, I got it. Anybody else have this? Or have an XBONE and plan on getting this game?

Anyone on here playing this game or interested in getting started? Unfortunately, it's PC only atm. Xbox version has been teased, but still no word about PS4, and I can't wait anymore. Been my favorite game for the past month or so just by watching youtube gameplay, so now I have ordered new parts for my old gamer PC and getting ready to enter the battleground. It's a battle royale type game. Only been out for a few months as an early access but is already ridiculously popular. You can play solo, duo or squad (up to 4 players). Up to one hundred players parachute onto an island and scavenge for weapons and equipment to kill others while avoiding getting killed t…

With my recent purchase of this game, I'd like to get a team together for online missions, raids, etc.. I'll be playing through Story first to get the ropes, though Id expect controls to be similar to the other Tom Clancy titles. I'm primarily looking for NA/EST members, but if you are in another time zone/part of the world it doesn't matter if you happen to play when I normally do. Days I open at work, id be looking at anywhere from 7:00PM-1:00AM EST. Days I close I would most likely be playing from 9:00AM-11:00AM, and 11:00PM-1:00AM. So post up if you play, play often, or play at the same times as me! You can also post here if you are looki…

Ghost Recon - Wildlands
by HoTWiiReD- 13 replies
- 1.6k views
This game was recently revealed, and sparked my interests. It will be available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC (In 2016). If the game is any good I'd definitely be considering purchasing a PS4 just to play it. Ghost Recon (Advanced Warfighter) was my first ever tactical shooter game, and by far one of my favourites. I'm a bit skeptical of buying Wildlands, as I was pretty disappointed with the last Ghost Recon I played (Future Soldier). From what I have read about the game it is going to have an open world environment, and set in modern days. What do you guys think about it? According to an article I read, it's looks like a mix between Far Cry and GTA - Which after seeing t…

This is mainly for @Banketelli but a short personal review as well that you may find useful... When Banks asked me about this I told him he should only get it if someone gave it to him. I had like 15 to 20m of playing it and now that I have a couple of hours into it, I started feeling bad for Ubisoft. Yeah, my fault really, and R*'s, as usual. See, we are all here because we in a way love GTA. We have that in common. With that in mind, personally R* ruined sandbox games with GTA, so, whenever a game doesn't live up to my own personal expectations (here I thought I was getting GTA with a parkour update and a special smartphone) I deem it to be bad. Sorry Ubisoft and …

Elder Scrolls Online

Hey everyone! Today I'm going to talk a little bit about Elder Scrolls Online, or ESO. ESO is a fantasy mmorpg. Anyone who has played the previous titles (Arena, Daggerfall, Battlespire and Redguard, Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim) will find something to like in this title. It can be played as either PvE, or PvP based. (Though it is not very fast to level up strictly through PvP) The guild system in this game is pretty unique, especially when matched up with the Auction House/Trade Network system. A guild can hold 500 members, and as long as there's more then 10 members, you get a guild storage, and a guild store. You can sell items within your guild directly from the storag…

My Summer Car

I've just seen this game on reddit while I was looking for something else and it looks funny as fuck especially for those who enjoy working on cars. Basically it's a Car Mechanic/Life simulator set in Finland. You start off with a garage, a shell of car and 100's of parts and you have to put the car together. There's a whole load of side activities in order for you to earn money to buy and collect parts with the added danger of Finnish drivers on the road. From what I've seen the driving mechanics are realistic as well as the actually mechanics of an engine are incredible too even down to having to adjust the timing of the valves etc. The best part of the game is pr…

Defense and manouver ability tactical skills
by Lijanor- 1 follower

Does anyone know how effective the manouverability and defense tactical and pilot skill are for larger vessels? intuitively, I feel these would be great skills for a b'rel or defiant, and not as effective for large vessels such as a neg var or warbird...I am assuming the larger vessels benefit from higher skills that boost hull? I am curious if I am correct as my science captain dumped points into hull boosting skills and I am thinking I would get more use out of a larger support vessel as opposed to a bird of prey (I have been using a BOP as I feel I get versatility out of the universal slots)

Star Trek Online Ship Setup.

Getting a good setup to suit your type of ship vs the type of play that you do is critical to success. To start, doing "rainbow" loadouts is a fail, meaning using various beam types for example (phaser, disrupter, plasma, etc..) doesn't work well out side of the story missions. Why^^^, there is tactical consoles that benefit particular energy types and there is consoles that benefit weapon types. Energy being phaser, plasma, quantum, photon, etc.. and weapon being beam, projectile, cannon etc.... Of those the energy types give a higher boost than the weapon type consoles. Which energy type you choose really doesn't matter. So to give an examp…

If you have a Klingon character and have a B'rel BoP in your dry dock or whatever then you may want to consider getting an upgrade token for it and move it from the Tier 1 ship to the Tier 5 Upgrade ship. This is a great ship for PvP and PvE even though it has a weak hull, but when upgraded it gets an enhanced battle cloak, which will allow you to fire torpedos while cloaked (when you fire your ship auto decloaks, fires, and auto cloaks all within a few seconds. It will launch mines without decloaking. So I have loaded mine with all torpedos and am using tactical consoles to compliment the torpedos and perform very well in PvP, In this set up you …

106Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
What I Watched This Week #120 (April 15-21) Of Time and the City dir. Terence Davies/2008/1h18m Of Time and the City is a documentary collage film made up of newsreel and archive footage that builds up a picture of the director's childhood in Liverpool during the 50's and 60's. This is like film as a memory, fragmented and broken into unrelated segments as if it were edited by stream of consciousness all scored to a majestic classical soundtrack. The narration, by Davies himself, is just like the rest of the film, at times he snarls about religion and the royal family, at others he rhapsodises about his working class upbringing, his s*xual awakening. Both incredibly personal and universal – he could be talking about a thousand cities, a thousand lives – the juxtaposition of dirt poor children playing in the streets set to highbrow classical music does become a little laboured over the length of the film, but that is my only small negative I have for this very moving picture of time and place. 9/10 Joint Security Area dir. Park Chan-wook/2000/1h48m On the border of North and South Korea two Northern soldiers are killed by a soldier from the South with the investigation uncovering what seems to be a very strange mystery – too many bullets fired, stories not matching up – but the truth is much simpler and much more tragic. Director Park Chan-wook is a master of unravelling mysteries in interesting ways – Oldboy and the recent Decision to Leave being two prime examples – and this is no different, with the investigation uncovering more information relayed through flashbacks. Saying anything more about the plot would be to spoil it, but the tension never lets up, even during moments of levity, because one wrong move would be disastrous for both sides. The two lead performances of South Korean Sgt. Lee (Lee Byung-hun) and the North's Sgt. Oh (Song Kang-ho, probably the biggest star in Korean film right now thanks to his work with b*ng Joon-ho) are excellent. The film also ends with a brilliant still image from a scene in the middle of the film that is given a whole new meaning thanks to the context we subsequently get. 9/10 Lime's Film of the Week! Dead of Night dir. Charles Crichton, Basil Dearden, Robert Hamer, Alberto Cavalcanti/1945/1h43m Dead of Night is an anthology horror film that stars Mervyn Johns as Walter Craig, an architect invited to a cosy little country inn to see about renovations, but when he arrives he realises that all of the people there, total strangers, are people he has seen in a dream, a dream where something terrible happens at the end, but he can't remember what. We then get four of the guests telling spooky stories of their own, which makes up the majority of the film. While the first three stories are good, especially the more comedic one about a dead golfer haunting his friend, it's the last one that really sticks with you. It stars Michael Redgrave as ventriloquist Maxwell Frere who goes mad with jealousy thinking that his d*mmy Hugo wants to leave him for another ventriloquist. It felt very much like an inspiration for the brilliant Anthony Hopkins film Magic (and every other creepy ventriloquist's d*mmy in media.) Chilling and charming in equal measure, this is a fun watch with some genuine thrills sprinkled throughout. 9/10 The Guard dir. John Michael McDonagh/2011/1h36m Mean, miserable, drug addled and prostitute loving small town Irish cop Gerry Boyle (Brendan Gleeson) is less than pleased when he's teamed up with FBI agent Wendell Everett (Don Cheadle) to bust an international drug smuggling ring. This is a black comedy with a real mean streak that you can't help but to compare to the works of the director's brother Martin McDonagh, particularly In Bruges. It's a testament to this film that it's not a totally unflattering comparison. Gleeson is always a joy to watch, even when he's playing someone so aggressively unlikeable. Cheadle doesn't really have a lot to do other than be amazed that Boyle is saying/doing the things that he's saying/doing, but he does it well. It does fell a little too mean spirited at points, but that is softened by a few scenes where Boyle meets with his equally foul-mouthed mother (Fionnula Flanagan), and I really liked Mark Strong's character of a drug dealer who feels like he's above it all. 7/10 The Party dir. Sally Potter/2017/1h11m Janet (Kristin Scott Thomas) is throwing a party to celebrate getting a shadow ministerial position but her husband Bill (Timothy Spall) seems distant and distracted, her best friend April (Patricia Clarkson) is splitting up with her partner, the very zen Godfried (Bruno Ganz), and Tom (Cillian Murphy) has turned up upset with a load of cocaine and a gun. A blackly comic social satire, this gets a little too verbose at times and feels like the characters are just spouting ideologies rather than having conversations for a lot of the very short runtime, but when it is as well written as this is you can forgive that for the most part. The performances are all solid. Clarkson's withering insults had me cackling every time, and I couldn't get enough of Ganz's Godfried, especially when he starts a therapy session for Bill and Tom. This film also has a really strong ending which I didn't see coming but that the script had seeded subtly throughout in a very smart way. 8.5/10 The Cure dir. Charlie Chaplin/1917/24m In this mid tier Chaplin short he plays an alcoholic who checks in to a health spa in order to sober up, but it's going to be a hard job when he brings a case full of booze with him. In the end the spa's well of curative water is spiked with alcohol and everyone enjoys getting blasted. During the film he makes classic slapstick out of revolving doors, the changing rooms and has a wrestling match with a burly masseuse. For me, whenever Chaplin strays from the character of the little tr*mp his films lose a bit of their heart and humanity. Rather than actually having anything to say this film is more like his earlier works in that it's just a succession of gags. They're really good ones performed by the best to ever do it, but when you know he's capable of more then you can't help but feel a little disappointed. That said, this is still better than the majority of films from the time and we're lucky to still have them. 6.5/10 Dilating for Maximum Results dir. Nyala Moon/2023/14m Trans woman Dreya (writer/director Nyala Moon) is going to hook up with her online boyfriend for the first time, but she has never been with a man and hasn't dilated in years, with this comedy following her as she tries to get ready. You learn something new every day, and the day I watched this film I learned that trans women need to dilate to stop from closing up, and that is what we get here in what I can only call a zany way. My main problem with this film is that the comedy is very TikTok if that makes sense. It's just not my taste, but that's me being an old man not hip with the kids. I do like how much of Moon's personality shines through here, she's very engaging and likeable. I also appreciate seeing a film about a trans woman that's not depressing and only focuses on negative experiences. 6/10 TRAY TRAY KO dir. Seba Calfuqueo/2022/6m (no trailer so here's the artist performing another piece in a gallery) This avant-garde piece of indigenous art see filmmaker Calfuqueo drag a long train of shimmering blue material through the Chilean rainforest to a sacred spot at the base of a waterfall. The only sounds are that of the forest and the water. The material is like a stream of man's making, leaving its mark on the landscape but only for a second, only until Calfuqueo hass passed by. There's a gorgeous overhead shot of the synthetic stream running next to a real one, man in harmony with nature. Hypnotic and meditative. 7/10- 2

Anatomy of a Fall (2023) dir Justine Triet This won this year's Oscar and Bafta Best Original Screenplay awards, and it is a very good story. It stars Sandra Hüller as author Sandra, living with her husband and son in the French Alps. When her husband is found dead, having apparently fallen from an upper floor balcony of their house, an investigation is launched and, eventually, she is prosecuted for murder. I would not call this a thriller. It's neither about police trying to catch a killer nor a typical court room drama of an innocent person falsely accused. We simply watch the story unfold and see the evidence, not being told anything more than we would if we were one of the jury. I think the idea is you make your own mind up about whether Sandra is guilty or not. A lot of it is played out at the trial, but whether it's because it's a French court, and they do things very differently to British and American courts, or just the specifics of this case, it's not like any court-room based film I have ever seen before. It feels a lot more real than a story being told by a film usually does, but still not like a drama-documentary either. It's mainly in English, Sandra is German, her husband and son French, they, tend to speak in English to each other and she gives most of her evidence at the trial in English too. The acting is very good, particularly from Hüller. It's well worth the awards and nominations it got. 9 / 10- 2
