I enjoyed the free demo version thingy of Killer Instinct that much that I sprung for the Complete Collection, giving me all the fighters, access to the remaining fighters due to come out, all the add on clothing and extras for the fighters as well as Killer Instinct 1 and 2 re-mastered for £41.

 

Plus it gives me the possibility of earning 1900 Gamerscore. Bonus.

Been off ill from work for a couple of days with a seriously dicky belly (don't ever order from the Domino's Pizza in Heywood) and waltzed through Rugby Pro 15 and Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments on the One including picking up the full 1000g on Sherlock Holmes.

 

Before that I went through Saints Row IV: Re-elected and Gat out of Hell as well. I can see why they ended up making Gat out of Hell an add on to the remake of IV in the end, it was basically the same game in a different setting with slight name changes for the powers and clusters and a really short main story. But it was fun for what it was.

 

Good news was all three where rentals so it cost me pretty much nothing.

I've been playing Life is Strange and really enjoying it. The graphics are really good, the time-control mechanics are intuitive and the whole "feel" is fantastically immersive.

 

A good example is near the start where the character puts on headphones (the choice of track helps) and you walk the school hallways. It's brilliantly done.

Picked up Trials Fusion and Costume Quest 2 for pretty damn cheap in the latest Xbox Marketplace sale.

 

I'm loving Trials Fusion (Gringo, I'm coming for your times, buddy!), and Costume Quest is ace. But it's a Double Fine game, so it stood a chance it was gonna be good.

 

Oh I sucked on it, trust me - if you wanna see Trials Fusion excellence you need to add my friend SoberBob300. That man can ride.

I picked up and finished The Order 1886. Definitely better than the 6.5 IGN gave it but not by much. I'd go 7 - 7.5 max. Its basically like an interactive movie, lots of story, cutscenes with a bit of cover based shooting and traversing thrown in. The visuals are gorgeous, maybe the best graphics I've ever seen. Overall, when its in the bargain bin for £20 in 6 weeks, its worth a punt.

I have waited for the patches and what not to make AC: Unity playable and so far it has been good, but not all they promised but then again what game is these days?

 

I have Walking Dead Season 2, The Crew, the second episode of Game of Thrones to do as well, plus Rayman Legends which was the free X-Box Live Gold download this month and pretty soon, Borderlands: The Handsome Jack collection too.

Has anyone played Alien Isolation? I'm tempted to get it but I've read a lot of mixed reviews.

I personally don't play any games like that, in essence they are just scripted jump scares, there's no real way to "play" the game. Comparably AI is better because you can fight back against the enemies but you can't kill anything either. I'd rather play something like Dayz where other players are your main enemy because the game is never predictable.

I picked up Formula 1 2014 for £20 yesterday. the last version of the game i had was 2010 so there is more than enougth to warrant me picking it up.

 

Started a season with Marussia and came 21st out of 22 in my first race in Australia. While on paper it looks pretty poor I'm more than happy with that on my debut, going to attempt Malaysia and Bahrain later today. I'll post updates as i go along.

Rayman Legends which is a cracking good little platform and free as well on Gold at the moment, I have done the second episode of Game of Thrones which was belting and will get the third episode of it next month, I still have the entire second season of the Walking Dead to do as well.

 

I bought the Handsome Jack Collection (Borderlands 2 & Pre-Sequel re-mastered together) and have done a little bit of Borders 2 but I am waiting for it to reinstall on my 360 as you need to have the old 360 games and the latest patch to upload your character so it can be ported to the new generation version. This is also the same with the PS3 so they can move to the PS4 but if your new to the game or not fussed you can also start from scratch.

 

Finally I have Lego Batman 3: Beyond Gotham and The Wolf Amongst Us on the way from Boomerang as well. So plenty to keep my company when Becki is at work and I am off over Easter (from yesterday to next Tuesday).

Also you can get Forza Horizon 2 Presents: Fast and the Furious for free until the 10th of April on X-Box Live Gold. It is pretty much a smaller version of Horizon for free that you don't need Horizon to play, it is completely stand alone.

 

It is also one of the easiest 1000 Gamerscore games I have ever played, all you have to do is just play the game really, took me two hours or so. Fun little blast though, highly recommended for Forza or diving game fans.

    • When the Carolina Panthers signed Andy Dalton earlier this offseason, they had their soon-to-be No. 1 overall pick in mind. Why not roster a 12-year veteran and three-time Pro Bowler to consult with your rookie quarterback? But what the Panthers might not have known is that Dalton also has some chops as a fashion consultant. Dalton, Bryce Young and Matt Corral looked a bit different—perhaps slimmer depending on who you ask—when they hit the practice field on Monday. Instead of donning the usual red practice jerseys, the trio began the latest installment of organized team activities in black—a change inspired by the 35-year-old passer. Corral was really loving the switch. Here were his thoughts, courtesy of Panthers.com’s Darin Gantt: Gantt also got a few words from the fashion icon himself: It’s not as powerful as “Keep Pounding,” but perhaps the Panthers can look good, feel good and play good into the 2023 campaign.

    • The NFC South returned to its 2014 form this past season. (For those who aren’t exactly acquainted with the “NFSW South,” yeah, it’s not good.) An 8-9 record, one mustered up by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, was good enough to take the division’s 2022 crown. Behind them were the Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons—all of whom finished at 7-10. So, will this year be different? Join us in our Wire Network roundtable—featuring managing editors Matt Urben (Falcons Wire), John Sigler (Saints Wire) and River Wells (Bucs Wire)—as we set our realistic expectations for each team in 2023.

    • Russell Okung may have never been called “fast” during his 11-year NFL career. But now, he’s embraced a different kind of fast in finding life after football. Almost two months ago—on Easter Sunday, to be exact—the former Carolina Panthers offensive lineman tweeted out a picture displaying the fruits of his dramatic body transformation. Once 330 pounds, a slender Okung looked precisely how the caption of the post read—”Reborn.” So, how did he do it? On Monday night, the 34-year-old answered that question: Okung added the following in a series of additional tweets: The 2010 sixth overall pick and two-time Pro Bowler played his final professional season with the Panthers in 2020. So, by our and Okung’s calculations, that was about three years and over 100 pounds ago.

    • The Dallas Cowboys started their week by bringing in seven players for a look—and among them was a former Carolina Panthers quarterback. Jacob Eason worked out for “America’s Team” on Monday. The 25-year-old passer was released by the Panthers back on May 18. Eason cracked into the pros as a fourth-round draft pick of the Indianapolis Colts in 2020. He appeared in his first NFL game in Week 2 of the 2021 campaign—when he completed two of his five passes for 25 yards and a pick against the Los Angeles Rams. After being waived by the Colts later that season, and then by the Seattle Seahawks in the summer of 2022, Eason landed in Carolina at the start of last season. In what would be his lone outing for the Panthers, the 6-foot-6, 231-pounder mopped up to finish off the Week 6 loss to the Rams (again)—where he threw for 59 yards and an interception.

    • Should the Carolina Panthers play it out with CJ Henderson in 2023 or pass him on to the next spot before the summer is over? Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox thinks they should be of the latter thought, opining that a split with the 24-year-old cornerback may be best for both sides. Henderson was acquired by the Panthers in a 2021 swap with the Jacksonville Jaguars, who made the University of Florida product the ninth overall pick just a year earlier. Carolina parted ways with tight end Dan Arnold and a 2022 third-round pick for the defender and a 2022 fifth-rounder. Similarly to his brief time in Jacksonville, Henderson has not been able to stick on in Charlotte—having struggled over much of his 27-game stint for his new squad. His roughest outing, perhaps, came in what was essentially the NFC South title game this past season—when he was a prominent part of the coverage that allowed 207 yards and three touchdowns to Tampa Bay Buccaneers wideout Mike Evans. The Panthers declined Henderson’s fifth-year option back on May 1.
