Pretty much how I feel with our lot as well. Most of Wales is under local lockdown and will likely be for some time, most likely into next year (this is the same Welsh Government that put Conwy into local lockdown on the basis of single figure cases after all). I don't think we've even had the evidence or publication from the Welsh Government to show why areas were put into lockdown, especially in North Wales. To give an idea of what our First Minister Mark Drakeford is like, here's a screenshot of his evidence showing that those in North West England have brought the virus to North Wales. This guy was previously our Health Minister and Finance Minister.

That's the case with all of them isn't it?

Attention you horrible English cunts in Covid hotspots. You are no longer allowed to enter Wales from Friday as due to the Welsh Government's evidence that had no definitive proof that the English are spreading it further in North Wales when they go on there jollies, as well as most of Wales being in local lockdown that doesn't allow travel out of the areas apart from a list of 'reasonable excuses', you have spread Covid within Wales and should be thoroughly ashamed of yourselves. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-54540764 Have a nice day.

For anyone interested, those who have Amazon Prime can see if there are any deals worthwhile on Tuesday and Wednesday. Most likely take the piss beforehand with prices but could be something decent on there.

Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate Edition announced for 17th November. Will include all DLC and the newest pack as well. I was hoping for something like this, especially as the Aftermath one wasn't released physically here. Might bite at this as I've held off for a bit.

Just had a quick glance of IGN's review for multiplayer (yes, hate me now) and it seems like it's like EA's first Battlefront in that the meat of the gameplay is good, but has sod all modes and maps to keep people playing for long. Single player was rated quite highly though.

Think that COVIDIOTS thread needs an update.

Pretty much how I feel with ours really, especially when most of the population in Wales is in some form of local lockdown. To give an idea, we had six deaths reported today and 398 new cases reported, of which: 74 were in Cardiff 51 in Rhondda-Cynon-Taf 15 in Caerphilly (the first to go into local lockdown) 17 in Newport Conwy, Flintshire, Wrexham and Denbighshire in North Wales have just gone into local lockdown and the cases reported today are as follows. 16 in Conwy 15 in Flintshire 25 in Wrexham 7 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) in Denbighshire Yes, cases are increasing, yes, we have had more deaths and yes, I'm aware that local lockdowns are meant to minimise the risk of spreading it, but this is beyond ridiculous. The sad thing is that the Welsh Government (I hate mentioning this but I have to mention that it's run by Labour, hence my comments towards Labour in general) will immediately blame the UK Government if the tourism industry goes tits up and unemployment increases in Wales. The sad thing is that people will lap it up as if Drakeford and Co are 'keeping us safe' by taking a cautious approach, yet this will do the complete opposite when you effectively ace unnecessary restrictions on most of the country.

Someone's head has to roll for this. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-54351724 Being selfish, this is only a short drive away from me so hoping it doesn't spread further afield.

Not that anyone cares but I was surprised that my Xbox Live account was still active, considering that I haven't used it for some time. While I won't be getting one of the new gen consoles immediately, I will admit that Gamepass is making me lean more towards Xbox this time around (especially as Sony don't seem to know why they're doing at present). If anyone's interested, add Bluebird Hewitt (yes, how original).

Conwy, Denbighshire, Flintshire and Wrexham are to go into local lockdown as of 6pm on Thursday, meaning that 2.5m people will be under restrictions in some way or another. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-politics-54346608 For anyone interested, our population is between 3.1m - 3.2m, meaning that only 600k - 700k have no lockdown restrictions as of yet. Don't worry though, we'll look to decimate our tourism by looking to charge a tax on those visiting Snowdonia. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-54328471 No doubt our lot will blame the UK Government when given a chance again.

So Torfaen, Neath Port Talbot and Vale of Glamorgan will join pretty much everywhere else (bar Monmouthshire) in South Wales in local lockdown from 6pm tomorrow, meaning that the majority of the population in Wales will have restrictions in some way or another. I'm sure Drakeford and Gething will find some way to blame others bar themselves though.

Cardiff, Swansea and Llanelli join the others in lockdown, meaning that half of Wales is now under lockdown restrictions. Stupidly, Llanelli's starts at 6pm tomorrow, while Cardiff and Swansea starts at 6pm Sunday.

Not long posted similar in the FM sub forum.

Finished Yakuza 5 but want to do some of the extra things on the game before moving on and getting Yakuza 6 and finishing Kiryu's story. Should be perfect timing as Yakuza 7 (different characters and genre) will be out by the time I get close to finishing 6 at least.

This is going to be the start of the thick wankstains stockpiling again isn't it? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-54283153

I'll be honest, Gamepass is pushing me a little towards an Xbox this time round. My mates will likely get the PS5, but they don't play online anyway and my work colleagues are online with Xbox.

Not really tech news, but I did find this a little funny. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-54239180

That's what I mean. It's fucking stupid. I can understand the protection aspect, but when you can still go out and get wankered while mingling with people you likely won't know, it makes it more farcical.

I fully understand what you mean there (though the part in bold would be more from the Welsh Government in this instance rather than the Treasury) in that it needs to be delicately balanced for both ends (economic and health reasons). However, as you mentioned afterwards, it really makes no sense that I'm now told that I can't see family (unless outside, which considering my nan can barely walk, is damn near impossible), but I can go to the pub (which Gething even said was the evidence behind why my area has seen a spike in cases), be surrounded with complete unknowns, get wankered and leave at 11. In fact, after reading the responses since I posted last, these quotes pretty much sum up my general feelings about these new lockdown rules. I think DeadLinesman's one here is slightly different as I think we can see others in our back garden, but the general quote still stands as you can easily meet them in the pub 'by coincidence'.

Get your FIFA 20 box, change the '0' to '1' and there you go. FIFA 21 is yours without the need to spend $6493626 Aussie dollars.

Pretty much echo this for us as well. Formed a ridiculous attack with Chopra and Bothroyd as well at the time.

Yeah, this is all starting to get tiresome now (the rules, not you). Our Health Minister Vaughan Gething had mentioned that there was evidence that people going to pubs and not adhering to rules was one of the key factors in cases rising where I am, yet the clown has decided that families can't meet up, but pubs can.......... stay........ open? But don't worry, closing one hour early will make all the difference and eliminate the virus completely from here.

There we go. Just been announced that my area will go into lockdown from tomorrow at 6pm. Clusters involved a rugby club, a pub in the lower Rhondda valley and 'a club outing to Doncaster races that stopped off at a series of pubs on the way'. Yet despite this, licenced premises must now be shut by 23:00. Good job everyone. Selfish pricks.

Yeah, I read that it was a very good remaster. Played it a little back in the day (christ I sound old saying that), but not a huge amount.
