Wrong model / year for the original in the main article but yeah, we see a LOT of these over here in the UK too (particularly horrible new shape beetles with the same liveries etc inexpertly done by some chump who thought they were being highly original and ironic)

Pretty obvious he meant to do this. There are a lot of arrogant tossers like this over here in the UK, not just joggers but cyclists who will try to run / cycle THROUGH you rather than around you (anyone who frequently walks in University Parks in Oxford will be well familiar with “Wanker Wednesday” as we call the…

That shot of him with his hand lovingly placed on her ass, yeah so heartfelt man...!

Great pics! I love sites like englishrussia.com for stuff like this. The Dacia 1310 definitely looks like the mother of all mutts made out of an old 1970s Renault shell tacked on to god-knows-what Chassis. Those vehicles though, whenever I’ve been there I’ve always been amazed at how many of their cars have survived…

This is one of those instances where you’d almost wish that very first episode of “Black Mirror” was real, and people could be voted down in a meaningful way for basically being the customer from hell. The customer is not always right and anyone who has ever worked in a store or service industry will tell you that…

First thing I thought of was...url

First one - Been in your situation, also didn’t cancel because I thought “Things had gone too far down the road” - Ended up heavily drinking before the wedding, being drunk through the ceremony, and having the worst possible wedding night. Our relationship limped on for a few months after the day, before I decided to…

I’m sad but OK with this because it leaves Shannon Purser free to KNOCK THE LIVING SH*T out of playing Squirrel Girl in the upcoming movie.

This this this this this. The main reason I didn’t bother with the last game. Completely put me off and doubly frustrating as the game before was easily one of the best in the series. Episodic content can just do one.

F-Zero is the one series that continually frustrates me by its absence. Even on the Switch, it could end up being a fantastic game (in fact it seems almost tailor-made for the sort of local multiplayer stuff the Switch is supposed to be for). Nintendo could even make a bundle out of microtransactions for it if they…

This might go against the whole ethos of the exercise here but wouldn’t it have been quicker to drive another salvaged golf over there and just swap the harlequin panels to that? :)

Came for the well formed plastic butt shot. Left empty handed.

I guess hearing that this takes more of its cues from GTA than The Crew might win me back (and you’re of course absolutely right about Most Wanted and to some extent Hot Pursuit also showed that it can be done, it just needs a good solid structure with loads to do under the hood). My real gripe about open world stuff…

Am I not seeing something you lot are? This looks like a completely bland uninspiring “Crew” rip off to me. If it had an ounce of the charisma of the Fast and Furious early movies, it’d be a win - and ditto on the open world thing. All the best entries in the Need for Speed series were ones that didn’t have open…

This looks really cool and probably the only time I’d be wishing for DLC (for other star trek ships and scenarios). One thing I really hope VR developers get on board with though is sorting out some sort of viable ‘at rest’ animation for VR hands. I’ve never yet seen a game where the footage doesn’t look completely…

As long as games companies are prepared to accept that there will be more and more triple-a fails at point of release while people wait, and wait, and wait for the inevitable price gouging and ‘game of the year - all the content DLC we planned but couldn’t sell’ stuff to happen around the games as a service model,…

Look at these two, like the two kids sat in front of the whole class in detention for making farting noises with their armpits. As much as I sympathise with our cousins across the pond and their feckless ice-cream-headed leader, we’re not much better off over here in Blighty either.

Netflix has (and probably always will be) absolute poop for movies. I too share your frustration that a lot of hoary old stuff that’s endlessly repeated on terrestrial telly here on the ‘free’ channels doesn’t even make the cut on Netflix (and it gets even worse when they do stupid stuff like put up the 4th in a movie…

The book you linked to above is indeed called “The Mid Life Crisis”. Actually had no idea these Ladybird books were a ‘thing’ anywhere else but the UK but I guess they might appear stateside and in other countries after all. There are a whole stack of them on daft subjects, using original Ladybird Book artwork with…

Great name but they will have to go some to beat Queen (the rock group) and their new VR experience, which is called...
