I went from an N64 to a PC to an Xbone.

Imagine my surprise the first time I tried to play a game from disk.

Also Learny, I saw your posts in another thread about your daughter and uni. Make sure you look into scholarships and university specific funding support for low income. I say this as a poor who put myself through uni, albeit before the horrific fee hikes

Yeh we looked into all that and it’s not doable, was doable until a few months ago and then the Tories removed all bursaries for English teachers which would have paid for most of her degree and all of her teaching qualifications, so we are going with the back up plan and having the military pay, my ex-army cousin runs a big cyber security firm in Australia and has offered her a job after if she goes this route.

Also speaking of Australia, more specifically it's sexier little cousin to the east. Finally got the first email update on my visa application since covid began, admittedly it told me to wait a bit more. But its something

i saw a clickbaity article trying to claim the disc ps5 was better because it could install the game faster than downloading

just lol at the idea of a game not just reinstalling the entire thing with the day 1 patch anyway

I cannot get over how slow the PS4 pro is downloading in comparison to the xbone, like the xbone was slow as poo poo but now I’m wondering if I’ll get these five whole games downloaded and patched before rewrapping them for Christmas, so no wonder people are leaping on any slight speed increase like it’s the best thing ever.

FIFA 21, apex, fortnite, little big planet 3 and wipeout. Anything new is going on the xboxes because his birthday is April and I’d assume there will be a cyberpunk Xbox series X bundle at that point for the lad.

they still make Wipeout? I thought the studio went under. 2097 was a great game

Some wipeout collection thing, what I really want is wetrix/Aqua Aqua but it never got ported and now I’m sad.

i'm from NI and glasgow was too sectarian for me

I visited Glasgow once and I saw this football crowd parading through the city centre and there was something oddly religious about it that set it apart from English football crowds. Glasgow's a City with a capital C: chilly, built on an immense scale and with a powerful sense of place that you don't often find. I liked it.

I am a spectacularly bad poster and everyone in the Schadenfreude thread hates my guts.
When you say 'something oddly religious', I mean that's the entire point to football supporting in Glasgow, it's literally demarked along Protestant and Catholic lines whether you support Rangers or Celtic.

Football supporting is already tribal enough without adding sectarian bullshit on top of it.
