    Crime 101 (2026)

    I thought this was a good movie, but found myself constantly comparing it to Heat, and it falls short in almost every way. That comes off harsher than I deserves, beause it is a good movie, but it's just not a masterpiece like Heat.

    Project Hail Mary

    Pretty good movie and as good an adaptation you could reasonably expect. Definitely a thumbs up for me :emoji_thumbsdown:

    the show was great!

    War Machine (2026)

    I thought this was pretty good up until the War Machine appeared. As someone said, they set a good foundation for a redemption style story. Then they went with a temu predator for the rest of it. At least they didn't have any trams in the back ground. I'm a sucker for anything filmed locally...

    This City Is Ours

    pretty sure he makes an effort to avoid any roles where that happens now after he became aware of just how often he's killed off. but probably still worth a bet...

    The Division 2

    anyone still playing this? Anyone remember how to play? I picked it up again on steam because it was cheap and realised I don't have a clue what to do but my character seemed too advnaced to do beginner stuff!

    Arc Raiders

    I wish they would hurry up and reset since I need the dopamine hit of virtual numbers going up

    Battlefield 6

    probably the best thing I can say about the new map is that it's new. It's very meh and unremarkable. Nothing too wrong with it but utterly forgettable and unlikely the challenge the great BF maps we all remember. It does highlight how much shitter they have become at running a live service...

    Cities Skylines II

    First patch by the new studio that will be running the game. Might be a good time to give the game another whirl

    I see everyone is so focused on playing the new map no one has time to post here about it!

    Imperator: Rome (2019)

    Anyone still play this? Apparently I own it but no idea when I bought it and thought I might give it a while since EU5 is pretty unsatisfying. I hear the invictus mod is well regarded, so should I start with that or go with the base game first? And is it achievement compatible since I am...

    Battlefield 6

    The Finals is my go to atm, because it's light enough to play casually and drop in and out of going at it hardcore depending on my mode. Pretty much only playing new mode, which is battlefield's rush, so scratches the team based fps I prefer

    Soccer 2022–2023 (EPL, La Liga, etc)

    feels very much like supporting Liverpool

    Arc Raiders

    fair point. I play solo because that's my preference, and thus miss out of those things. I tend to play boardgames when I want those things. Thus the tasks are required in order to do the same content over and over, without which I would have consumed all the content tens of hours ago, since...

    Iron Lung (2026)

    Looks like the game is discouted atm too!

    Arc Raiders

    feels like this game is a victim of it's own success. They must be scrambling to get up to speed with a better content pipeline but I don't think they're there yet. Having finished the decks and maxed out levels and expedition prep, doesn't feel like there's anyhthing to do for the next month or so.

    The Running Man

    I enjoyed it but I was a fan of the novel before the arnie version It follows the book far closer, but really does fall apart at the end. I can see fans of the arnie version being very disappointed, much the way I felt with the total recall reboot, but it's a bit unfair to compare the two. I...

    The Finals (fps)

    New season and new stuff, etc etc I alternate playing this and bf6 for my fps fix. The Finals has far better environment destruction, but is small scale stuff. I mostly play power shift, the most team v team mode they have, though the new one this season could be a contender too (it's basically...

    All Her Fault

    I don't think the empty middle episodes is limited to just this show. I think it's endemic to most 8-12 episode mystery style shows these days. The setups are usually interesting enough, and the conclusions / twists at the end. but there have nothing in the middle while you're waiting between...

    Battlefield 6

    I wish console players started mute. Why do they think we want to hear their domestics, babies crying, farts, burbs, random TVs in the background, etc

    This show is so unbelievable. How can anyone think it's chicago?! at one point there was a tram in the background!

    Stargate SG-1

    The biggest problem is how they can recapture the magic of Richard Dean Anderson. He was so core the success of SG1 imo. Atlantis didn't really achieve it, though Flanigan, McKay and to some degree Jason Momoa were good enough. SGU never even came close

    Battlefield 6

    new map feels very undwhelming. it's just another close quarters map imo. I was hoping for something on the scale of caspian border.

    Europa Universalis V

    I have thousands of hours in Eu4 but I keep getting paralysed and overwhelmed when I load this one up. Every quick start guide seems to be an hour long or longer. Need to find one that details what to be doing before unpausing and how to handle the first 20 or 50 years until I can get a handle...

    Soccer 2022–2023 (EPL, La Liga, etc)

    Love seeing Madrid lose and love it even more when we're the ones who do it. Was nice to see it was a dominent performance, and not a lucky result. If we continue the trend against City I might start hoping we've turned the corner.

    Spartacus: House of Ashur

    as long as they don't go the 'it's all a dream' crap, or 'his vision of life flashes before his eyes as he actually dies' then I'll be... well , not happy, but at least not rage inducingly annoyed.

    Europa Universalis V

    only a few days to go. Must admit that I'm still nervous about it. it looks and sounds too much like victoria3, which I played and mostly enjoyed but didn't suck me in in the same way EU4 did.

    Anno 117: Pax Romana

    kinda interested in this, but given I haven't played more than 30 min of anno 1800, I'm guessing I should wait until it's on sale to pick it up and not play it either.
