Us against Wrexham or Newport would be interesting, especially if we're away.

Every year I get excited for this and every year I'm disappointed. So Stoke away it'll be.

Funny this was mentioned. https://www.eurogamer.net/capcom-confirms-more-resident-evil-remakes-on-the-way

In terms of sneaking around, it's like stealth, but in a different way to the games you mentioned because of the type of games they all are. Uncharted is more of an action adventure game where stealth is mainly used as part of set pieces or just for stealth kills where possible (i.e. you've sneaked behind the enemy to kill them). They aren't stealth games where sneaking around like what @Mel81x mentioned is required. The Last of Us has more in the way of stealth and if you want a better comparator, it's closer to that than Uncharted. In this case, it's used in a survival horror sense as being stealthy in taking out the infected or killing other humans is better than all guns blazing, as you'll very quickly get overwhelmed and killed if there's too many. The Metal Gear games have mainly been around stealth and infiltration throughout, as again, while you can shoot enemies and the like, you won't last very long as enemies will hone in on you and basically take you out if you're spotted, especially as you had to be out of line of sight and, in the case of MGS3, be camouflaged well enough to avoid detection. That's not to say you don't use weapons or the like at all and you do need them to take out bosses and the like.

What about Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake?

In fairness, if they didn't pass over the remains of Big Boss, they'd launch a nuclear weapon.

You groomed me.

If that's the recent Metal Gear Solid collection, tread a little carefully as apparently Konami have done the square root of fuck all with them (in fact, when there was a technical comparison being made against the consoles it's out for, one of the showed a logo brief for the HD Collection that came out on PS3 and 360). That's not to say the games are bad at all and for what it's worth, you do get 6/7 games out of it (depending on how you want to be with the original Metal Gear, as it has both the MSX and NES version in the collection). It's just that for what they're charging and what they've done with the games, Konami are taking the piss really. Not sure if he's aware, but there's another collection due out that has the other games on there, including MGS4, which only released on PS3 I believe.

On Christmas Day, no. That's always turkey with pigs in blankets and the like. The days after however, we may do.

You could add to the remake argument to revitalise a series if it has gone dormant (which you mentioned a little) or struggling, to see if gamers are interested in more of those games. Two examples from the top of my head are the Crash N Sane trilogy and the Advance Wars Reboot Camp, the former as the series had struggled in recent years and possibly causing the market to lose interest, and the latter without a game in the series for 15 years. The end result for Crash saw Crash 4: It's About Time being created and well received. Not sure on sale figures for Advance Wars though and wouldn't be surprised if that goes dormant again. For the technology angle, I believe Shadow of the Colossus came out on PS2 to wide acclaim, but I heard it struggled a bit on the hardware, to which the PS4 version was released (which I played and really enjoyed in fairness).

Just watched an advert for WWE Survivor Series and there's apparently two rings in play at the same time. Why?

We all now agreeing at long last that the premiership ('the best league in the world', 'where all the best players in the world want to go', etc etc etc) is corrupt and mainly protecting the big boys? I'm sure if it gets to be more mainstream that the likes of Gary Neville, Carragher, Rio Ferdinand et al will try to defend it.

Probably being stupid here, but isn't there a fair bit of a Jewish presence in Hollywood? Just thinking any actor or actress that mentions anything like this (even when it isn't antisemetic) is going to be classed as antisemitic in their eyes straight away, regardless of what's posted.

Excluding the current shit fest since Cameron's resignation in 2016, previous elections have been held around the beginning of May.

Newcastle allowed to loan players from PIF-owned Saudi clubs. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67490620 Be curious to know who the clubs were that voted against the block.

Better prospects in your new role? Only things I can think of from the top of my head are sending them from your work to personal email (I've done this myself for uni related work or data as needed) or put them on a USB stick if possible, neither of which are recommended as they can be tracked and blocked as you mentioned.

Didn't even know TNA was still going. I remember liking what I saw originally when it was the six sided ring (even if that was more gimmicky than anything). Started to lose interest not long after Hogan and Bischoff got involved. Not sure what it's like these days.

That's fine and all, but you would have been undefeated if you had Bobby Glatzel.

@Dan and @RandoEFC. Your dream job awaits.

I second RE2 Remake as well. Was very good overall, with my only gripe really being how the story interwined with each other compared to the original. I won't spoil anything.

Cruella Braverman (quite like that nickname) has been sacked. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-politics-67370421

I'm a bit hesitant on buying any FIFA/FC game on Switch as EA tend to update the teams and that's about it (I.e. it's literally the same as the previous version).

And it did. One draw and four defeats. Sheffield Wednesday, Blackburn, Rotherham and Coventry after the international break. Should be looking to win three of those four, especially against Wednesday.

The original was very good in fairness. Would arguably say it stands up well against the other classics in the Zelda series. Had both the Game Boy and Game Boy Colour versions when they came out (despite being the same but you know..........colour!!!) and might still have my Game Boy Colour version somewhere.

All about location for the most part. I've had a look around my area just for a quick browse and there are some 4 bedroom houses near me for around the same price. Bit less as well for nice three bedroom houses. Head into the valleys (which I think you've been to previously) and houses can be very cheap. I checked my mate's house on Zoopla as an example (3 bedroom mid terrace) and the average price if put on the market is £122k.
