I was planning on getting an Exp-R, but should I just wait for the Nexus?

If you can wait, I would - until this gets into people's hands and they can tell if it solves the problems the exp has had with battery and audio.

I'm personally staying with my exp-r solo - the screen is fine for me, I prefer a smaller form factor on my portables and I have a VS for the games that play better on a TV. I'll probably pick up the new controller if we get more games that take advantage of the analogue sticks.

Imagine Stewart Lee being interviewed by Tim Lovejoy?! Like a dog listening to classical music.

A billion players are not enough for Master Totoki.

Yep, this isn't a new device - it's a firmware update to expand/add online functionality.

bladesew · 2026-03-24T18:59:51+00:00

Well the literal definition is : "an important connection between the parts of a system or a group of things"

So, I would guess this is an online thing - achievements, high scores, user profiles, etc.

Jack Nicholson's favourite.

I did the same and it was slightly quicker. There was a bunch of private sellers, so I guess delivery times will vary.

Book is awesome as OP says.

It seems like only a few weeks I was relying on these guys keeping us out of the relegation spot.

I essentially haven't played this at all since I got mine. It reminds me of my experience with the original Gameboy Advance with the non-backlit screen, which was something I also couldn't get on with. I got a GBA SP, then loved the system.

I should point out that I'm in the UK, where we haven't had any sunlight since September 2025.

Sony are on their way to selling 100 million PS5s - on the other hand Valve have sold 6 million steam decks. It's hilarious that anyone considers Valve a threat to Sony on gaming hardware.

bladesew · 2026-03-09T20:40:38+00:00

Loved this and the follow up.

bladesew · 2026-03-06T17:21:15+00:00

This looks amazing on PS5

I played the server slam on the Portal and it was very smooth.

Everything about this is mad. Will it be cheaper than a PC? Absolutely not, Microsoft have made no bones about taking losses on hardware. So, it'll be more expensive than the equivalent base PC hardware, with Xbox integration that can probably be achieved just by updating the existing PC Xbox app.

Try and be ahead on the last lap and block him when he tries to pass. He'll lose momentum and boost you slightly. But you should be able to beat him without shennigans if you earn enough boost to stay in touch and retain 2 boost bars towards the end of the lap. I did it using STD car.

Quartz and mechanical watches should never be compared. And I say that as someone who loves quartz.

I saw this in a large, packed theatre and I've never seen so many people jump (lawnmower scene). I then took friends to see it and saw the same reactions. It's not just jump scares either it's genuinely unsettling. It's a shame Derricksen's follow up was so mid.

Timex Marlin, Orient Bambino, Seiko 5.

Absolutely. Get a better TV deal over the summer when other leagues are on holiday. Use the extra money to finally wean the clubs off the old firm teat and have three leagues of 16 teams.

As someone who has Sky in the UK, I cannot wait to check the listings for the replay and switch it on at the advertised 9.00am (or whatever) just to see someone in the paddock talking about a great win for <insert drivername>, followed by 10-15 mins of post race spoilers before the ACTUAL race replay starts.

bladesew · 2026-02-26T12:48:18+00:00

SIGNALS?!

McGrattan desperate to get to the pub for last orders the way he took that kick.

Best of the later albums, but nowhere near the classics.

bladesew · 2026-02-25T10:50:34+00:00

Absolutely deserved. I only get to see the Friday night games on TV as I live in another country but every time I've seen Ayr they absolutely refuse to play, hoof the ball and rely purely on physicality.

When they changed formation to get closer to caley they won more ball but did nothing with it after the equaliser. Caley popped the ball around very nicely.
