    Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    This just became available for PS4:

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Deep-Silver-KMG664-UK-RB-Killing-Floor/dp/B01L6ZFJIA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1479815916&sr=8-1&keywords=ps4+killing+floor+2

    I played a bit on PC and its quiet good, kind of like zombies mode in COD. I am going to pick it up and give it a bash :D

    Anyone else looking at getting it?

    €169.99 for that new 'pro' controller for PS4

    http://www.razerzone.com/eu-en/store/razer-raiju

    Free shipping to Ireland.

    I'd be lying if I said I wasn't kind of tempted... just to see what it's like.

    Just having a look at this, Generic and Co brought it up last night but from what I can see the controller is wireless with a 10ft charging cable.

    The button/controller layout looks like the xbox pad which feels a bit comfier on the hands. I would be tempted but I'd have to try one first.

    Also if anyone does go ahead an order one sign up to the newsletter for 10er off your next order and then use code "NOVNXEU" for a free fitness band (Offer ends today) http://www.razerzone.com/nabu-x/

    There are two different 'pro' controllers - I prefer the other one, which has the xbox pad analog layout, the one linked in the post above has them in the playstation position.

    Also, if i remember correctly both of the controllers are wired, not wireless. The connector is detachable, but it needs to be connected for actual gaming (detaches for storage only).

    Also heard not great reviews about their other pads, joystick deadzones etc.

    EDIT: Here is the other pad - which I prefer the look of: http://nacongaming.com/revolution-pro-controller/

    The Nacon one also has a RRP of €110 so €60 cheaper than the other one. Easier to take a gamble on it. Not seen it for sale anywhere yet.

    I've stopped getting up at 4 am. It's great not having to walk round work with blood red eyes.

    Got it on the laptop. Think the last one I had was 4. Haven't really played it just trying to figure out what I'm doing. It's very overwhelming.

    Very well, it's different enough to be engaging. It's been patched a bit recently to deal with some exploits. Worth picking up if you see it on Sale. I played a lot of Civ 2 - 5 and am really liking this.

    It is a bit alright, start on lowest difficulty and work your way up after each playthrough. I'm a Civ vet and even I am still discovering stuff in 6

    Was going to buy X Com 2 this morning for around €25 on steam but as just got Civ 6 I said I'd leave it. Ended up buying 3-4 of the earlier games for €2.99. Loved Terror from the deep back in the day.

    Bought Witcher 3, Just Cause 3 and Shadow Complex Remastered this morning.

    Would like to get Uncharted 4 but I only completed the first two back in the day - want to get the trilogy completed again before I buy - no doubt I can get it cheap by the time I 'need' to.

    Got the Mass Effect trilogy downloaded the other week aswell so replaying that. 20hours into the first 1 at the moment. Couple more hours to go and then on the much more enjoyable (for me) sequels.

    Is that a bad attempt at the sound effect of a tumble weed rolling past as your attempt at humor (?) falls flat? :confused:

    Don't think so. Had a quick look there and couldn't see an option. You may need to create the GDH account, or just stick with IRL username.
