It was kinda surprising that ye got the prison break heist done in 2 attempts last night - how many attempts did ye have on Saturday though?

Thought ye would have struggled with the jets rather than the valkarie but shur the drink is an awful thing

Too many attempts. The rage can be strong.

Danger zone playing during the Hydra mission was the saving grace.

Totz dying just before Generic parked the hydra. An all time moment.

Glad I wasn't the one streaming that. I was NOT a happy camper

That was Generics fault. He should have drove his car underwater(because its bulletproof,water doesn't like that), up through the carrier. Then we equip our welding gear, fuse the car and jet. All that's left is to fly off into the sunset.

Don't worry buddy, you could hear the incredulity in your sigh.

Looks like fun to play co-op. Kinda wish I had bought it back in the day! Not arsed scraping the coins together for it now - figure people will be back on Overwatch for comp this week anyway. Hopefully!

Shame you missed the kosher salt conversation.

Actually it's a shame the world missed out.

I can't imagine what watching that stream with Totz and you muted must have been like. I must have sounded like a f**king lunatic

Prosecco is one hell of a drug. Honestly have the worst hangover today that I've had in years.

Binge on Aftershock
The following day was quite possibly the worst day of my life
I still have a half finished bottle that I opened some 15 years ago as a warning to my modern day self.

A few, I'm guessing 3 or 4 at the prison stage, I just kept dying, lack of armour and no food to build back up health, only learned that before our last attempt.

That was epic.

Perfect comedic timing.

No much less than that, you were grand when you got in the car but you were ****ed when you got out, I'd blame the driving.

Your handling of the he-lo seems to have gone unnoticed, you flying, generic passenger and myself and tractor in the back. Totz hits an antenna I think and that knocks both tractor and myself out.

I had a great laugh to be fair

Generic Dreadhead

Totz: "Seriously though, we should all stop splitting up, we should just take one car, no need for 2 cars"
Me: "Totz all 4 of us are in a Boat"

Totz: "Let me fly the f**king Helicopter"
Me: "Why? What's wrong with me being the pilot? I've been the pilot in every mission and had no issues and....."
Totz: "Let me be the pilot"
Me: "Fine, just shut up complaining"

Totz crashes in the very 1st object that was more than 20 feet high

:rolleyes:

Nah, I was just burned out on Overwatch and wanted to kill some stuff in a game after finishing Hotline Miami.

It's Half-Price on PSN atm I think

Hmmmmm i think I will give it a pass for now, clear some of the dreaded backlog and then get that new Zero Dawn game

Riesen_Meal

I could never get into GTA online for some reason, I think the loading times on it used to píss me off more than the actual gameplay...

Spent more time staring at menus than actually playing....

Kinda like Destiny.... :P

Generic Dreadhead

Yeah, we figured out the best way around that is a Combo of Private Lobbies and doing playlists, so you can do 5 missions/races etc in a row uninterrupted by changing lobbies etc

tbh I don't think I'd pay €35 for a digital copy of it at this late stage, though there is a lot of free DLC content

It's €40 for a hard copy in Gamestop and still has a decent resale value. €36 (voucher) in CeX

Still way too rich for my liking Totz, if it was 20 or less I would buy :pac:
