Got it on steam, it's probably the only thing that's bettered Sim City tbh! The shit you can do with roads, you can even have overlapping roads like they have in america, or make roundabout nonsense's like we have over here. It's basic to understand but there is a lot to understand so may take a while depending on how you operate with these games.

Bet you haven't been to the first proper planet yet have you? Took me around 8 hours before everything clicked. Patience is key to this game. You will be rewarded but it takes time

Just going to EOS now think that's the 1st planet.

So have my switch with Zelda arriving tuesday. What can I expect? Is it as good as everyone says?

I'd like to play games on my laptop. It is, however, a laptop provided by work, so can I keep everything game related on a portable hard drive and just use the PC to play it (similarly to how you'd use a TV with a console)?

Yes. Just connect it, then install games to it.

It depends on your employer. Some lock down to the point you can't install applications on them, including games. If they lock them down then there are ways around it, but depending on their opinion of your talent you may find yourself looking for another job. If they lock down but you back your abilities then go for it.

Does anyone play. Rainbow six siege? What a game that is. Class

I'm not locked down at all. As long as I'm not playing in work time and not impeding my computer's performance when I am in work, they won't care.

That's a hell of a lot of cut scenes.

I agree. Eos is boring as fuck, but once you go to meet Jaal it gets far better.

Mario Kart Deluxe is out today. Quick question, can you play it two player with just the standard neon and red joy cons that come with the console or do you need an extra pad?

Can play 2 player with those controllers mate. Just ordered the Switch for my lad with Mario Kart and 1-2 Switch I can pick up tomorrow my lad is very excited ha

Right. I am now officially addicted to Cities Skylines. A wonderful relaxing game which makes you think. Got it on Xbox One and thinking of upgrading my laptop so I can play it via steam and get mod support. My city is called Madchester and my districts are named after songs. I have Pacific 202 heights. Blue Monday valley and Waterfall Place!
