I’ve been rewatching all the Star Wars films. First time I’ve watched the sequels since they came out. Bearing in mind the originals and prequels aren’t Shakespeare the sequels are terrible.

Really forgotten how bad they are. Just finished The Force Awakens or as I like to call it A New Hope Ripped Off. Just about to start the Last Jedi. Shame as Solo and Rogue One were pretty much on point.

If your a bit older, Early Doors is worth a watch on the iplayer.
Also watched Without Sin this week on ITV, very different, but I thought Very Good.
APart from that watched some Dross this week!!

Early Doors is great.

Speaking of dross though I've found myself binging Too Hot To Handle on Netflix. A bung of young and seriously beautiful people all I able to get their rocks off!! It's very addictive

Finished the latest version of You not great at all, wife liked it though.

For me Blackbird will take some beating this year!

Watching “Plane” with Gerard Butler through nefarious means. Absolute quality. Proper 80’s style action film. Mike Colter is great in it as well.

We went to see “The Whale” earlier. I was bored shitless. Brendan Fraser was good though.

CANNOT wait to get this!!! Should line up with me having to sit downstairs with a new baby on me so I'll be smashing this at 2am!

Breath of the Wild came out when we first had Lucas, and I was up all night at that time, great memories!

Martin

@john-folan yes! I like the darker theme too. The direct yesterday was really good Metroid Prime remaster was a highlight for me, will be playing that later today

@dan-mackinnon never heard of that game before, in terms of strategy i like starcraft, the old skool warcrafts were brilliant

Have you played the classic versions of Wow?
Or Dragonflight?
This is the first time in years I've not bought an expansion at time of release.
I still don't have a max level char in Wrath of the Lich King classic. I've not played properly in a year.

no i have never played Wow before, can it imagine it being insane

Ive been playing since 2009, it's the only thing I play. Must have spent a lot over the years in subs and expacs.

that is a very long time

alright everyone, how we doing? what kind of games do you all like playing, also anyone into NFTs?

I’m a history nerd and love grand strategy games, in particular Paradox games. It’s similar to trading, takes forever to work out, you feel inadequate most of the time and there’s no real end goal.

Aha another like me. I'm a big fan of Surviving Mars, Transport Fever 2, Two Point Campus(and Hospital). I've got Surviving the Aftermath but haven't really got into it yet. Anything else you like?

I have Surviving Mars but haven’t played it yet. I’m trying to go through games I’ve bought on sale but never played. The one I’m going to start today is Jedi Fallen Order. I know nothing about Star Wars but enjoy RPG games so hopefully it doesn’t all go over my head.

I always seem to return to EU4. It’s obviously the repressed warmongering dictator in me that enjoys it

I've got so many. Really need to go through them. Got Baldurs Gate on Ipad as well. Fallen Order is just wow. I envy you starting that for the first time. Can't wait for the new one. EU4 looks good
