It's 3rd July, so I picked it up from your initial post that it's your birthday. So, allow me to create a thread for you on it. Happy birthday mate @Shagger. I wish you everything you ever deserve and dreamt of to come to reality. Have fun man and go easy on the drinks 😂 !!

It wasn't necessary to make this thread for me, but thank you.

The WRC videos actually have it right. In rally, fans can get very close with little to nothing in terms of barriers and other such things for protection. In rally, they don't race on racetracks, it is time trials on dirt tracts, country roads and off-road terrain, so there are no grandstands. Fan will usually find a spot at the side of the route the competitors drive and just sit/stand there. The clip below should show you what I'm on about.

Cheating by gamers is something that's been a very serious problem for years and there seems to be no lasting solution to the problem till date. Cheaters always find a way to have unfair advantage over their opponents with cheating tools they are able to have access to. Gaming companies have resorted to banning any accounts found of cheating but that doesn't seem to solve the problem because they still find a way to still get back into the game with another account. There are companies and websites where most of these cheaters gets the tools to perfect their cheats, do you think gaming companies should be suing these entities and not just rely on banning accounts or suing gamers like the case of the 14 year old Delaware boy cheater in Fortnite and Epic Games?

Hard to explain it but it just looked better and more immersive and some of the visuals actually have a pop out effect(like text usually). There were some games that used it really well but some others treated it as an afterthought like Pokemon X/Y.

Happy Birthday to our beloved @Shagger! Any special plans for the day?

AC Origins is in Egypt and lots of history.

I am fooling around with Modern Warfare 3 campaign right now.

I'm a little bit shocked to hear that you don't know what PS1 controller looked like. PS1, PS2 and PS3 controllers almost looked familiar. Here take a look at it in this video.

It looks good and i like the fact that they incorporated real world environment into the game and the cars are superb but driving such a fancy car on some of those dirt roads as seen in the triller might not really be a good idea, but its just a video game anyways and no damages done is real. I would keep an eye on this game too.

Well in real life rally fans stand close to the racing surface. The game is realistic in that regard. I think that fans should stand at least ten or twenty feet back. Its not like cars always handle perfectly.

I watched Black Myth: Wukong trailer not long ago and it reminded of the Chinese animation after it called The Monkey King : Reborn. I was never aware there was a game in development after the animation. I enjoyed watching the animation and I'm sure the game isn't going to be bad.

From my personal experience, working for ladies is always more demanding and challenging when compared to working for a man. It's not that I have anything against lady bosses, it's actually a very good thing on their part because they or most of them always seek for perfection in anything they are involved in. None of our staffs then would dare mess up on duty like trying to play games even on your PC, otherwise it's your head on the line if she caught you. It's better to play at night whenever I got back from work then.

It's never a good feeling whenever that happens racing in WRC 8. It's not like they deserved it and that's why it's very painful when I run down any of them.

What brought the person here. Why they chose VGR over other forums. IMHO it would be interesting to hear their answers.

I would make sure every person in the world has food to eat. Some may call that socialism, but I call it just letting people eat. It's better than starving everybody because of greedy pricks. I'd tackle food distribution and take a look at worldwide food/seed supplies, agriculture, impacts of industry and global warming, bee population and pollinators, crop diseases. I would do something different about livestock and not allow inhumane conditions for meat production. I would take a look at the water supply, soil contaminants, fish population and reefs. I pretty much would develop a better self sustaining worldwide food supply and every industry out there will comply to my better health and safety standards. No lobbying or any of that crap would exist that tries to interfere with progress. Self sustaining food supply would be mandatory everywhere in all communities. I would do everything I can to provide healthy food for all and destroy the obesity and diabetes epidemics.

One thing that sometimes keeps me into a game, is the game+ modes that some games have. I don't much care for playing a higher difficulty, but I will gladly play more of the game if it's fun and doesn't change the difficulty on me. I also like when games would let you keep your inventory from the end and bring it to the start. I miss that games don't do that anymore. 😞

Whenever I get together to drink with the buds, they hate when I play video games. Even though they're gamers as well, they always hated gaming when we drank. I would sometimes play and we'd just talk, and I saw no problem if I gamed while they talked. But I guess they weren't fans of that. We did game sometimes, but I guess they wanted to talk more about random things than games. But, oh well.

Can I say I am an "in the moment kind of person", I write as well but only when I have that warm feel I get inside my chest anytime a new inspiration pops in or I just got the right mood for it. I don't force myself to write because I do it basically for fun.

Yeah I didn't think about being creative like writing. But I could totally see people taking up the arts, literature and more with video games not being a thing. That makes sense. It would probably make books more popular these days.

My boss is a lady and she's got hawk's eyes when it comes to spying on all staff. The moment you go off track from your work and start doing another thing, you will get summoned immediately and get served query. I'd never put myself in such tough spot.

I read a lot even though I still play videogames, reading is just an habit I can't do away with .

I wanna draw too!!! What kind of motivation would get you drawing cars again?

The chance of 3D TVs and games utilizing it in the future is likely to happen again. I think most games these days support 3D TVs anyway, so maybe future we'll see 3D TVs making another comeback. But again, I just don't see it sticking around for too long. I think VR is what people are flocking to these days.

I would restore a lot of rights that have been taken away from us. I would also make some offenses punishable by death without the luxury of spending 15 years on death row. I would make sure that cultures were kept up. Different countries would be welcoming of immigrants instead of building walls. And I would throw Perjury Traitor Greene, Lauren Boebert, and Adolf either into a deep hole, or on a tiny island in the middle of the ocean that's completely uninhabited and leave them there to either figure out how to survive, or just rot.

I came across this list of games using unreal engine 5 so far. Thought it would be good to look at. https://gamerant.com/all-confirmed-unreal-engine-5-games/

I feel bad if I hit fans standing by the side of the road in WRC 8.
