    Retired the PH1 Workhorse

    Great write up - nice and up front opinions about both cars. The one thing that I can't now un-see regarding the Mk4's is the front appearance. It must be driven by aerodynamics, but it looks like the result of a very bad face-lift. If the car was human, it would look about 5 seconds after...

    The cost of console gaming!

    I want to get it just for that reason. It's around £21 for PC at the minute..... I think I'll wait for it to become still cheaper though. :wink:

    Saxo VTS as a track car

    The FRP is lovely - but again, they didn't actually go to town with additional power on them. I'm sure @gally will say whether or not that extra performance would be needed overall though.

    Saxo VTS as a track car

    Yep - the Puma is a great shout. The Yahama derived 1.7 lump just loves to be thrashed and I agree with the steering and gearshift feel too. My wife loved hers - she'd have another one tomorrow. Aside from the dreaded tin-worm (rear arches, especially) and a few starting issues, hers was a good...

    The cost of console gaming!

    Thanks for the Gold reminder. It's coming up for renewal again and I've not switched on my 360 in two years. Always nice to see you getting charged a membership fee when you don't use it! Totally agree with the freebie games given out, though. When I did use the Xbox, some of the titles given...

    From Titanium to Liquid! (New car content)

    Standard 182 exhausts are shockingly quiet - I couldn't believe the transformation when I got an aftermarket one on there.

    LY 200 EDC Enhancement

    Great results! I had no idea just how BIG those headlight units were? They go back nearly halfway up the bonnet.

    Call of Duty WWII

    Trouble is, most of their business model is based on trinkets, DLCs and other crap that you can buy. Similarly, I saw a coloured knife going for sale on CS:GO on Friday for £351. Worse - someone had previously bought one at a similar price. It's a knife. In a game. Get a grip. As much as we all...

    That's some collection for sale...

    Leading on from that find yesterday, I had a quick browse of Atari Lynx stuff on ebay. I was surprised at how high the prices were for a quarter-of-a-century old console. Still got mine - will have to dig it out at some point.

    No worries! :smiley:

    Where would you even begin to store it all? :smile: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272608531839

    Trophy 220- Opinions...

    Lol - and they wonder why sales are poor! Just why would you pay a sizeable chunk upfront for a car that you might actually detest? That is one big wing-and-a-prayer that they are asking their potential customers to go for.

    Quick Excel Help?

    If you want - forward it to me and I'll see if the password box appears? I'm happy to save it in a different format if you send me the password - assuming it's not too confidential?

    Volvo 940 on ebay

    Awesome. So rare and quirky!

    Cities: Skylines

    This looks like it has potential. Literally fired it up last night for a few minutes and instantly picked up on the SimCity vibe. Looks very pwetty for such a traditionally bland looking subject matter.

    Welcome aboard Kane! Any pics on their way? Which colour did you end up with? :)

    Bingo. Just how many games will actually be able to push through that frame rate at that resolution?

    Deluxe Edition is on cdkeys for £8.99. Think I might nab it.... Standard - £5.99

    Battlefield 1

    Lol - no. Just f*ck off! :smile: The amount of jihad-jeeps they had way back in BF2 was annoying enough! I would have thought EA/DICE would have sorted that by now.

    Help needed on Next Stages of my track day 172 Cup

    Definitely can relate to this. Had a set of 15s on mine for about a week - just using them for daily commuting. Made a significant improvement to how the 182 'felt' to me. On track, I'd assume this difference is even more pronounced?

    StarCraft Remastered - for free

    Worth seeing why so many Koreans are still addicted, some 19 years after it's release.... ;) https://starcraft.com/en-us/articles/20674424

    Star Wars Battlefront

    Yeah - I tend not to be an early adopter of EA stuff. I only got the Season Pass last Christmas as it was in a flash sale on cdkeys for about a tenner. Otherwise - no chance!

    The Power PC Thread [f*ck off consoles]

    That can be an issue. However, the accuracy taken up with the mouse is sublime. Once you get your head around it, the slick and smooth operation of targeting with a mouse becomes second nature. Just in the same way that in driving games, a wheel is far more subtle and specific with steering...

    Star Wars Battlefront

    Seems to be a bone of contention that. Personally, I love single player campaigns in FPSs - they are pretty much exclusively what I play on any of the COD games. Yet other players don't even fire them up and are purely focused on multiplayer only. I also have a liking for player vs bots options...

    Star Wars Battlefront

    I think that's one of the things that really works for me in the existing game. I'm regularly around the 30% of kills through headshots alone - the fact that you're firing linear laser beams rather than shells that can randomly go anywhere - makes accuracy more, erm, .....accurate. I pretty...

    Battlefield 1

    The sniping issue behind a rock is similar to the one I've had when firing from a parapet - the round is probably hitting the stonework a foot to the side of me, rather than the bloody enemy that I'm looking at down the sights. Game loading times? Yep - even on a PC installed on an SSD - it...

    Battlefield 1

    I'd be interested to hear what you don't like about it as well. Simply because I don't like it either. We can be BF1 Haterz together... :wink:
