    So you lead a post with "Glorious News" and proceeded to NOT include an image of Hubert J Farnsworth?

    It's school you should be sent back to, not college

    Glorious news, I may finally be getting around my blasted red bar, with Vodafone due to hook me up sometime in the next two weeks.

    Not so glorious realisation, I am heading back to college for another year to get me an honours degree. With study and travel, I might be relegate to a casual weekend scrub for Rise of Iron :(

    On the brightside, you'll have a half-decent excuse when get hockeyed in PvP!! :D:D

    Just pulled the trigger on this (via Parcel Motel - Large Packages)

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01H4OGAFI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    It looks like a fairly good deal tbh, reviews are decent and comprehensive.

    Only a few left in stock atm ;)

    Im currently looking for a chair and have a few around that price point that are tempting me so let me know if its any use :)

    For me it was the reviews and (apparent) build quality that swung it, hate flimsy feeling furniture

    I actually like how that chair looks aesthetically much more, but the reviews mentioning lack of proper spinal support and the lumbar support being too low to actually be of any use are pretty big red flags for me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,427 ✭✭✭✭gimli2112


    I would have thought a beanbag type arrangement would be ideal.
    My brother has one.
    When I played a session in his house it worked well.
    When I went to get up, I couldn't.


    Need to get a proper chair myself.

    Well then you'd just be adding chronic back pain to liver failure.
    You're effectively doubling down! :P

    When it comes to gaming chairs I can't rate the auld Emperor 200 highly enough, well worth the investment.

    I just built one there and the quote worked out at $9,850 plus delivery. The floor's not all that bad!

    Don't skimp on the seat, the Iron Horse is worth every penny! Heated of course.

    They have other variations, just search for "raygar" and you will see all the different types.

    Picked up No Man's Sky today. Having fun with it so far, especially when chasing down random animals just to murder them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,470 ✭✭✭SolvableKnave


    Tesco (UK) are offering 2 select pre-order games for £80, £70 with a discount code: TDX-KTRP. Just on the off chance anyone has family over in UK, or Parcel Motel if it works, but Battlefield 1 and Titanfall 2 for £70?

    They seem to have quite a few top listers in the deal. FFXV / Dead Rising / FIFA / Mass Effect .....


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 18,876 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kimbot


    Hmmmm not sure titanfall is worth it, I'll wait until it drops in price before I pull the trigger.

    They kind of threw you in at the deep end no? I had no clue what what going on... Do I climb inside the giant robots?? Do I help them? Do I kill them?

    Ah now i knew well what was going on but titanfall 1 was so much better and it was around the middle of the match when you got your titan not near the end.

    Thursday Chair thoughts

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=100799596&postcount=68

    I'd recommend splashing out on one (Totz and whoever else was talking to me about it at the weekend)
    Like the PS4 2.0 headset, great value and great investment.
