Kind of surprised how many people are saying they've completed Spiderman already, I thought it was a big open world game? Have they been absolutely rinsing it or is the game just not that long?

I have put in like 30 hours and just finished it. I finished the main quest but still lots of other stuff to do.

I might get it when it gets cheaper then, with the price games are these days I want them to be a bit longer than that tbh

Bought Spiderman this morning did the 1st mission before work graphics are superb and the gameplay feels good.

Busy couple of months ahead for Games :)

Finished Spiderman now. What an utterly incredible game.

Tomb Raider next for me on Friday now. The other two were fantastic so hoping for similar from this instalment.

EA under criminal investigation by the Belgium government for refusing to turn off the ability to buy packs for ultimate team which in Belgium is deemed as gambling is is therefore illegal. Valve, Activision and 2K have all complied with this.

Ultimate team in all EA's sports games contribute a whopping 67% of revenue for EA which is about $3B. So you can see how important this is to EA. If the Belgium government win this, this could be a watershed moment in gaming

I'd be delighted to see it abolished, its an absolute scam and cons money out of so many people its disgraceful. They call it gambling, but id say its more like the lottery. At least with gambling i can say choose a horse with decent odds i think will have a good chance of winning. EA offer these packs and kids (adults are probably just as bad) waste their money on them and 99/100 end up with nothing to show for it.

Completely agree. Unbeknown to me, my lad had spent 100 notes of his birthday money on this shit. None of it carries over to FIFA 19 and his team is still shit. I was livid with him.

My little lad was the same but on a smaller scale. I was naive to it and agreed to buy him 30 quid of fifa points so he could open these gold special packs. Opened about 10 packs and I don’t think he got a single good player. At that point I looked into it and it was obvious it was a scam. It seems they target these fifa you tubers with incredible packs so all these kids who watch you tube videos see them getting Messi and Ronaldo and think that’s the norm. They then are obsessed with opening packs.
