It's alright promoting all that marketing fluff but will they be able to make the Ultimate Team servers actually work for everyone? By messing people around with that they've lost a fair amount of customers.

Minecraft.... addictive as hell when playing with somebody else. Spent 4 hours on it last night with the better half.. time just flew, and all we did in effect was build a house.

Worked fine for me. Wasn't that a Virgin Media broadband router settings issue in the end?

No it was nothing to do with Virgin Media, EA tried blaming it on them...until people from other countries started getting the same problem then they ended up on Watchdog etc, they gave out compensation to the wrong people (25k + 15 gold premium packs) then they made a form for people who disconnected but didn't get compensation 2 months ago, they've ignored every request there and now they've been reported to Trading standards.

This is probably an age old question, but on Tiger Woods, why are you allowed to put spin on the ball after you've hit it? What a load of rubbish. Everybody's golf all day long!

Diablo 3 is awesome. That's all.

Edited for accuracy.

Decided to try the euro cup DLC for fifa. I applaud them for making it a dlc but it is absolutely awful. The passing and movement is just so crap, players falling over each other.

Max Payne 3 is the best game i have played for a very long while - i loved the first two games and this is a very nice addition to the previous games, it has a great retro feel to it and is as dark as ever.

The one liners are just tremendous.

9/10

Been loving ploughing through Trials Evolution. What an utterly superb game engine it has. Utterly brilliant.

Finding it a lot easier this time around. I suppose that's because I didn't have the learning curve that I had with Trials HD, but I'm getting through some 'hard' courses with no faults first time and only having to revisit to improve the time. Not tried extreme yet though I'll admit.

Just started Max Payne 3. Best. Production. Ever.

It's like a walking movie though, for me, the casual gamer, this is no bad thing. I am thoroughly enjoying the experience of it. They have got Max's character well, although I am missing the dark comic book strips from the first 2.

I only get time to do an hour at a time on Max Payne, and I have just played through 'bad day at the office' (The Sau Paulo football stadium level). One of the most enjoyable gaming experiences I've ever had. Level design is excellent, and sorry to bang on about the production of it but it's epic.

Could never really get into Max Payne 1, that was like 10 years ago though so make take a punt at the new one!

My only gripe (and its a minor one) is why oh why do games have to include the usual shooting from the back of a speed boat section?!

Its like they feel they need to break up the game with these crappy shooting sections.

Other than this so far its been brilliant.

Anyone getting the new Ghost Recon? I loved the old ones. Different to normal shooters in that you can't get riddled with bullets and survive. A couple of bullets and your dead. Wonder if its the same with this one?
