  1. I've probably only watched Cavani 10 times and have never seen him have a good game (he was utter dogsh*te at the last World Cup and cost me a tenner).

    That changed last night - fantastic performance.

    Argentina were terrible and the French should try and work out how they let three in against such an awful side if they want to lift the trophy. Part of me wanted Argentina to go through as they looked ripe for a 7-1 spanking from someone (a la Brazil).

  2. I have 2 reservations about Fallout 76 being a multiplayer game:

    You wont be able to kill anyone important

    Crazy OP builds will be nerfed to balance the game

    To me, it's not Fallout if you can't walk up to a main character and blow their brains out with a mini-nuke because you felt like it (hence why Fallout 4 was the weakest of the series in my eyes)

  3. Commiserations to our Cleveland fans on here - you still have 2016 which was a great series.

    I think LeBron goes to Philly next and will continue to dominate the East. Part of me would like to see a Kawhi, Paul George and LeBron super team but that would likely see them end up in LA which would also make me a bit sick.

  4. Houston miss 27 3 pointers in a row. Ouch.

    If you take a 35% success rate it's odds of about 100k to 1 to be that bad.

    Warriors in 4 for me. I hope I'm wrong and LeBron pulls off a miracle.

    The complete lack of co ordination from all participants reminds me of this:

    Probably the best fight scene ever.

  6. I think Indianapolis had the best draft.

    It wasn't sexy but if Andrew Luck returns fully fit,they have added some solid pieces to protect him.

    With the current state of the AFC that is probably all you need right now to make the playoffs (and then get shredded by Brady)

     

  7. Drafting QBs is definitely a crap shoot. Ryan Leaf probably had the 3rd best QB grade in the last 20 years and he was an abject bust. 

    I think Darnold was the safest pick and Allen has the greatest upside. Mayfield and Rosen appear to be the most ready to start right now. I think Rosen will be the pick of the bunch but it's only guesswork.

    I would have chosen Chubb instead of Ward though.

    This feature from Bloomberg is an excellent piece of writing about the people making a fortune from scam adverts ('affiliate marketing') on Facebook, and the very minimal shits that Facebook seem to give on the subject:

    'Sitting on a bench on the Santa Monica pier after a ride on the Ferris wheel, I asked Gryn about the ethics of affiliate marketing. He said he’d stopped doing it himself, because he started to get handwritten complaints from people who’d entered his iPhone sweepstakes and couldn’t figure out how to cancel the recurring charges. “I had no idea that this is what it’s doing to people,” he said. “As an affiliate marketer, you just look at the numbers. You don’t see the faces. You don’t see the people that you’re potentially financially hurting. It just sucks money out of the poorest people.”

    Eerily similar to this:

    Just for fun to see how wrong I am when the night comes.

    1. Cleveland Browns                                                         Darnold  QB
    2. Buffalo from NYG                                                           Allen  QB

    *snip*

    Have you omitted Saquon Barkley on purpose? I think Cleveland will draft him at 4. If it does pan out that way it will be even more awkward than Aaron Rogers!

  10. Yes I know what you are talking about! My lockpicking came in handy but I couldn't remember which one was which!

    The little details are great too: I robbed someones's sword early on and when involved in a battle later on the poor bugger was doing his best Scrappy Doo impersonation trying to take on several armed bandits with his fists. I did feel guilty so made sure he didn't die.

  11. The difficulty and progression is very inconsistent. I asked a villager for a reward after one easy quest and he offered to teach me bare fist fighting. Went from level 1 to max level in an instant!

    Today I found an unlocked chest in the woods. I looked and there was about 10-15k of endgame gear inside. Years of RPG gaming has taught me that something bad was about to happen but nothing did. I was a bit drunk afterwards (randomly) so I thought it was cursed but nothing. I hope it does bite me in the backside later but I think it was just a cheat chest they left in the game by accident.

    I would advise against taking the best perks because they seem overpowered. Hunting has gone from very difficult to Far Cry easy after netting a few bonuses.

    That been said this is my favourite single player game on the ps4 so far. The freedom is great, the quests are excellent and there's so much to do. The feeling of powerlessness when you first start was fantastic and having the option to avoid combat entirely is very welcome.
