I'm somewhat keen on getting a google Stadia when it comes out. I'll have to see what more games will be coming on the platform first but it's a nice list at the moment.

My missus says the same thing *nudge nudge wink wink*

Have I got this right; with GTA onlines introduction of the Casino, players are basically gambling with real money with any return to only be spent in game?

What were peoples thoughts on Watchdogs 2? I picked it up cheap today and thought I'd give it a go considering I enjoyed the first one. The only problem with the 1st one was that the map was too small.. and the baddies didnt respawn in the open world.

What are people’s thoughts on AMD vs Intel these days? I’ve pretty much always used intel, but I’m keen to hear about the differences people have seen. Is there much difference these days?

I’m building a PC with my son. He wants gaming and possibly VR in the future. Everyone else will prob watch vids, surf the net, school work

Really enjoyed it myself. It was a bit less dark than the first one. It appealed to my eldest daughter too, who still plays it (casually every now and then (she isn’t much a gamer in general). Wrench is pretty funny. 

The third instalment comes out next month I think. Looks fun too, and I reckon I’ll end up with it as well

If you're not building a high end system AMD's new CPU's are good value.

Yep, with you someguy

Like these types of games, thought 2 was just as good as 1. Looking forward to 3

Just flagging a wrestling video game stream coming up on this Friday and Saturday (4am to 4pm each day AEST)

Twitch Tv - NewLegacyInc

Basically it's two days of running simulations of Royal Rumble matches from various games

They raise money for charity - Canadian Cancer Society

They're funny guys and I'd recommend watching

Here's a video of Day One from the last time they ran such a marathon

Thought it was a flop?

[Erebus]

Has had massive updates in the past 3 years. A new massive update just recently and even I bit the bullet and got it on sale this times around (with an extra discount...thanks PSN).

I think Sony pushed for them to release it when it wasn't ready.

[Neverbloom]

Erebus is right, when it was released there was a lot of lies by the developers(well at least one of them), it was over hyped and it got a lot of hate(i cant say if it was a good game or not because i never played it) but its gotten a few massive updates with NEXT(when i started playing) and now i think the update is called beyond, mostly VR and multiplayer stuff was added which isnt really my thing but they still added more stuff

apparently the base building is amazing in it however its not really something i care about i just like exploring and getting better gear/ships ect and i picked it up for like $18 a week before the NEXT update so it was a good purchase for me
