I still think House of the Devil is one of the best films I've seen in the last few years.

No, it's just not as good and makes little sense. Why is it all Coldplay and full of trees and stuff when the story speaks of the killer red dust through which nothing can live? Stupid game. -

You shall not pass go then, and no £200 for you! -
Microsoft is trying to acquire Activision Blizzard.

Well... It's not like there was a Microsoft console to put them on at the time... -

Well, the weird thing is it's a conversion from the Amstrad version which was made by the guy who converted Druid to the Amstrad. It's all very strange. -
Anyone watched Prey for the Devil? Don't. It's shit. I also have Moloch to watch. Anyone seen that?

I'm only about half hour in but I've laughed and smiled more at this than I have at any other game. Really liking this.

Looks perfect for a Saturday night to me.

I tweeted at Dene Carter about this and he was pretty vociferous in tone about having nothing to do with this. -

Yeah, I could complete it back in the day without cheats. -
The Falcon and The Winter Soldier - on Disney+ from 19 March
squirtle replied to Nick R's topic in Film, TV & Radio
Just rewatched this. Far better second time around and watched all in one go. Really enjoyed this and want a lot more of these characters. -
I watched this and Prometheus the other night. I'd forgotten the story in them completely, but fuck me. So we created the Aliens. I mean... No. I hate this kind of shit. It makes the universe so much smaller and everything about us. Just... No.

Both of those examples are bad because the cars are too big. Make them smaller and it can work fine. -
Shit! Mine doesn't hover. Is there a setting I've missed?

Maybe... I didn't get that from it. Immersive Sims are all about giving you the tools to get from point A to point B in a myriad of different ways. I didn't see any of that in this. -

I think you're being a bit kind there with the immersive sim references. This does not seem to have any of the things that make up those games. The plot may be interesting, but as a game it's wanting and it has a terrible combat system that is painfully hard to try and get your head around. -
Nope. Does my bloody head in as I have put the password in every time my son comes to stay and brings his S with him.

Yeah, I was never taken with the C64 version because I had played the Amstrad version at my friend's, who owned one. It's flick screen, but seem to remember it being pretty good. I could be wrong, though. -

There was a Karl Hornell (guy who did Fungus etc) vibe about Scout.
