    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.

    No more massages :eek: losing out there dude :P

    Happy Endings was a great show - shame it got cancelled.

    Happy Endings was a great show, criminal they cancelled it over some of the dross. Big Bang Theory, I'm looking at you.

    I'm an insider on the BF thingy.

    It's supposed to begin on Aug 31st

    If you only signed up as an Insider on or after 21st, then afaik you won't have access to the beta

    You get it a whopping 24hours early as you are an insider so you should have a code in your email tomorrow...

    How long is the Beta open for? I'm kind of torn with playing the beta. If I really like it I'm just setting myself up for a couple of months of climbing the walls. Patience is not my strong point.


    Went from COD to BF. Tried BF3 and never really got into it. BF4 blew me away tho. Got Hardline and while it was only ok still got more than my money's worth from it.

    BF3 was class if you got into it early enough TBH, I am avoiding the Beta for this as I am getting the full game regardless :D

    Yeah I never really gave BF3 a chance. I just wasn't ready to make the leap over at the time. :)
    I've pre-ordered this already.....
    and they say marketing doesn't work?

    Played BF3 and loved it. Was waiting for the reviews on 4 and the clusterfcuk that turned into turned me off. Hardline never really interested me. Trying the beta for 1 as I'm undecided on it. If I like it like it, I'll probably purchase at some point. Plus Civ6 releases same day too. Have to pick and choose purchases these days, well, purchases on top of Destiny.

    I'm determined not to buy the season pass this time. What generally happens is I'll play the game, think it's awesome, buy the season pass the first night and a week later I'm back on Destiny.

    Anyone here have experience with purchasing power banks for mobiles? Need to pick one up for the weekend (so I'm kind of ruling out online even though I'd get better value I'm sure). Has anyone bought one in a Store or could recommend somewhere to check out?

    The 3000 one should charge your phone at least once fully.

    Great value for 20. Do they ship in Ireland? I'd need it by Thursday at the latest :/

    They do, but I don't think it would arrive by then.

    I'm looking at a 10,000on Maplin's site for 40. The 12'000 is out of stock, might bite the bullet and pick that up later.

    Did anyone else get the BF1 Beta on PS4?
    I want to give it a bash. But last time I played BF was.... like 2001.
    I think it was BF 1932 or something like that on PC

    I'm pretty sure it's an open Beta. The special people get it early but otherwise as far as I know it's open to everyone until 7th.
    I'll certainly be on it this weekend if it is.

    I googled "Wars in 1932" there's nothing except something to do with Emus in Australia. I reckon you played Battlefield 1942

    No, it was a special Emus Battlefield, was hosted on a private server, you probably didn't hear of it cause it was so underground like

    Strange I'm normally lucid in work but am giddy for BF1.
    From 31 August everyone gets it. You are getting it a day early as an Insider.
    I'll download it this weekend.
