  1. Definitely something to keep an eye on to see where things go. The fact that his sons are already reacting pretty paranoid tells you that they know things are going to get bad. The fact Trump tries to dumb down everything making out it is not as bad as the news are making it to be is not shocking if I am honest, he has always been that kind of person who when he does something it is not that bad but if someone else does it, they should be brought down instantly.
  2. The news coming from Epic Games today is that they have laid off 900 employees which is around 16% of the work force. The reason coming from Epic CEO Tim Sweeney is as follows You can read more about this here What are your thoughts on this news?
  3. Battle Royales have been very popular since the releases of Fortnite and PUBG in which both games started becoming more popular in 2017. Prior to that we had H1Z1 which was a battle royale game released in 2015 that was quite popular but not as popular as some battle royales we see today. Now it seems that we are seeing more and more games releasing that are falling under the battle royale genre. Do you feel battle royale is being overdone?
  4. There are many different kinds of sports at the moment some of which you can see why they are classed as a sport and others that fall under the sports category but do not really seem like they are a sport at all. When it comes to different kinds of sports, which ones would you not class as sport even though they fall under the sport category?
  5. As many will know the iPhone 15 has now released and as expected, there are some issues with it. At the moment I am hearing that the new iPhone 15 is overheating for many of those who are using it due to it's design not allowing heat to radiate like it should be able to. Have you heard of anyone who has the iPhone 15 who is having issues with overheating?
  6. Most of us will have seen television shows come and go, some of which we loved and would have been happy to see continue and then ones that were not so great and happy to see the back of. I remember watching a lot of TV shows when I was a kid that no longer air now and I often wonder what they would be like now if they were to still be airing today. TV shows such as London's Burning Lie to Me The Bill Noel's House Party Gladiators these are all TV shows I loved watching that no longer air. If you could see any TV show make a comeback, which one would you like to see or do you have a few?
  7. Something I was always brought up with was musicals and especially movies that were musicals as well. I loved watching movies such as Dirty Dancing Oliver My Fair Lady Mary Poppins Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. I still now from time to time enjoy watching movies that are also musicals as well. Are you a fan of musical movies? Which ones have you seen?
  8. I always remember back in 2009 when Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans was released, it being a Nicolas Cage movie I was interested and decided to watch the movie. Safe to say I was disappointed by the movie and could not believe that a movie with Nicolas Cage could have been as bad as this one was. It was a 2 hour movie and was very slow and repetitive with not much of a story to follow. Has to be one of worst movies I ever spent time watching. Have you watched Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans? How did you find the movie if you did?
  9. Sounds like me. If there is genuinely nothing on or nothing worth streaming I tend to not bother with television at all and find spending my time doing other things more worthwhile. Some people I have found tend to watch TV all day everyday and I often wonder how they can do it, especially seeing the TV programs that are no nowadays.
  10. The last movie I watched was Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Very sad to hear the news of Michael Gambon to play the second actor Dumbledore in Harry Potter pass away!
  11. If you regularly follow e-sports you will know that there are quite a few e-sports teams that regularly compete in tournaments whether it be on Apex Legends, Fortnite, Call of Duty and so many other games. Let's say you were given an opportunity to be part of any e-sports team, which team would you want to be part of?
  12. If you are a Harry Potter fan you will know that Michael Gambon took the part of Dumbledor after Richard Harris passed away in 2002 who originally played Dumbledore in the popular Harry Potter movies. Replacing the actor of Dumbledore was big shoes to fit but Michael managed to pull it off! Michael Gambon passed away at hospital peacefully with his family by his side from what I read. My thoughts go out to his family at this time. You can see more here
  13. Tetris was always a game I loved to play as a kid. I still find myself playing it sometimes now and my youngest was playing it the other day as well. The last time I played Tetris was on the Nintendo Switch with Tetris 99 which is a battle royale type game only with Tetris which is a lot of fun but difficult. Going by Tetris 99 and how many still play the original game of Tetris as well, would you say that the game is still pretty popular?
  14. We are almost at the spooky month of October and with that comes Halloween. Many may say it is too early at the moment to be thinking about Halloween but with how fast the months seem to be going by, we may see it come around a lot faster than we think. Do you have anything planned for Halloween this year?
  15. I can honestly say I don't remember playing Donkey Kong on the Super Nintendo even though I know it was available. I was always someone who stuck with the Mario games on the Super Nintendo.
  16. I know a lot of people were hyped for this game but seem to be disappointed since release. I have seen people still playing it but will be honest, it's not too many which is sad to see. I have yet to try it but have not yet.
  17. The last game I played was Fortnite last night. Spent some time completing outstanding challenges but I will admit, I feel as though something has changed within the matchmaking as it really is a land and die type of issue at the moment that almost everyone is noticing. I do hope they fix that soon.
  18. I will admit, there are many games that do not help to ease stress, Fortnite is sometimes one of them for me and it's annoying. When it comes to stress relief, I tend to like playing single player games or games that are just chill such as Roblox or even Minecraft.
  19. There is something about KPOP that is just different to the pop music we normally get, I have noticed that. A lot of the pop music we have at the moment I can not stand but KPOP I can listen to for hours a day. Maybe it's because it is somewhat different, can not quite put my finger on what it is but KPOP is definitely more enjoyable.
  20. Hey Kenson and welcome to VGR! It's awesome to see you here and I look forward to chatting with you around VGR over time 🙂 I could never fully get into dinosaurs myself but they do seem quite fascinating 🙂
  21. Some games I have played in the past have had so many ads that I have given up on the game. It can be really off putting when you get an ad between everything you do and the ads sometimes last as long as a minute. There is just no need for it and in some cases I find that it's more greed than anything else.
  22. It was only a matter of time that this happened. He was running on luck up until now and it's all starting to crumble around him. He will make out that it is a witch hunt and his supporters will believe that as they believe everything that he says but the truth is that he lied to so many and brainwashed so many and now it is coming to bite him on the backside. He'll continue to claim he has done no wrong but the truth will continue to out itself.
  23. I guess in a sense when you think about it, if you have a PC capable of playing most games, you will for sure have a console for every game available without needing to worry about upgrading all the time unless you really needed to.
  24. Whenever I am asked this question, there is always one game that jumps out at me every time that I absolutely loved growing up. It was a game on the Super Nintendo and it was called Yoshi's Island. Mario was a baby and it was up to Yoshi who you played to ensure that baby Mario stayed safe throughout the game, loved that game!
  25. I am so sorry for your loss. I do hope that you mum gets a great send off with her funeral. It is never easy to lose a loved one and especially someone as close as your mother. Thoughts are with you and your family at this time. I will be catching up on some work today myself and getting things organized for the week ahead. I have a parents evening tomorrow as well as my shopping day so a busy day for me tomorrow.
