    Yep. By far my least favourite of the main GTA games.

    I actually considered GTA III but I always end up using cheats in the older games.

    I have to agree.

    All my mates love TBOGT but I thought there was far too many helicopter missions and they are my least favorite thing to use for transport in GTA.

    Get yourself the Hitman 3 in 1 game. Not too expensive and absolutely amazing.

    Not meant to be a great game but meant to good fun. At least that's what I get from reviews.
    Picked up Devil May Cry HD collection for a tenner from Xtravision today, but gonns go back and try and finish the Riddler side mission in Arkham City now

    Joe Brolly turning face, not sure I am for it he is like an annoying Miz style face.
    The Riddler trophies are a biatch to do, think I get to 3 hostages and just give up.

    Yeah I did all the other side missions and think I stopped with Riddler with 1 hostage left to get. But with Origins coming out it made me want to go back to it. For some reason my Catwoman bundle is gone from my PS3 so downloading again now since there are trophies only she can get

    Missed it sadly. What did the best pundit in sport say?

    It's good, but short and pretty repetitive. Can be pretty frustrating at times too. Worth playing for the humour in it though, the game has some really funny bits. They captured Deadpool's humour perfectly

    Don't know why the HD Collection for DMC claims to be a trilogy since DMC2 doesn't exist*

    *Sorry, but DMC2 is one of the worst and most disappointing games I've ever played that I prefer to believe it simply doesn't exist. They took everything great about DMC1 and said "Nah, don't need that". DMC3 though is among my favourite games ever. It's incredible

    Ah now I know why I stopped collecting the trophies. I've opnly got 195 and supposedly I need at least 400 to complete the Riddler side mission. Back on the shelf it goes.

    More and more talk of
    Peter Capaldi
    becoming the next Doctor. Big fan of his, but a real different direction to Smith....but that might be a good thing...

    Lot of faux controversial outrage from the thicker GAA fans. Two deserved reds and a player accused of cheating for fouling a player who was almost in on goal outside the square. Very physical stuff though, as you'd expect in a Monaghan match. They just couldn't get the same showing out of their Moane-types as they did for the Ulster final.

    He was very good in skins. Good actor.

    Joe Brolly's rant was a bit amusing. Didn't think it was that great of a game though.

    He got really wound up about it, its not like every game isn't ruined by sinical fouling. Thats the one advantage you get in hurling the players skill levels are in general high enough to punish that sort of stuff whereas in football you get teams getting keepers to take their kicks which is a bit much(is it me or does that take even longer than a Penalty does in Rugby).

    The Angry VideoGame Nerd (James Rolfe) recently had a roast at the Too Many Games convention. Thought it was hilarious! Especially Keith Apicary, he's brilliant.

    Didn't see this coming. Mayo brutally destroying Donegal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,564 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Ah well. I'm a Donegal man with my mum from mayo so they'd be my second team anyway. Not that I have much interest, it would be nice to see mayo win the all Ireland.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,331 ✭✭✭✭Rjd2


    That was a slaughter indeed!

    Mayo are the only semi-likable team left. I've been saying it everywhere but they didn't need a challenge in the provincials. Dublin didn't get a challenge either but you don't hear hacks saying that'll be their downfall.

    I know football is very tactical but this weekend just reminds you why hurling is the most exciting sport in the world.

    Connacht, Munster and Leinster are all fairly poor in terms of competition. If guys are saying that about a team who just spanked the AI champions it sums up the state of the game.
    Hope Mayo win it cause they have earned it after all the nearly stories.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    I'm the same. If Galway weren't 4 or 5 years off this Mayo side I'd be less inclined to support our sheep-loving neighbours but now Mayo are reppin Connacht against all the haterz.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,996 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Peter Capaldi is Doctor 12! Awesome choice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,564 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Haven't seen zoe Ball in years.

    Funny looking up Peter's imdb, he's got a credit in world War Z as W.H.O. Doctor

    And the second Fires of Pompeii actor to come back for a bigger role?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,520 ✭✭✭Hashtag_HEEL


    Someone mustn't be happy (open image)

    I'm delighted! Loved him in the thick of it. It's odd though that they've gone older rather than younger.

    Very late but here was it.

    Is their some good one of these that plays maybe PS1 games or something? I like Angry video game nerd. But Id like to check out some of these guys any recommendations?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,628 ✭✭✭Ando's Saggy Bottom


    Would love Mayo to win it out of those left after so many near misses.

    PS1 is an odd one as it's middling between retro and new. After the nerd, I'd recommend GameSack (16-bit), Rinry (her old stuff is great). GameTrailers Pop-Fiction is a great series on gaming legends and Easter eggs. And their Retrospectives on gaming franchises are amazing. Keith Apicary's stuff is really hilarious thatd be my first port of call, but its generally all old SEGA games. That'll get ya started anyway!
