@Voltan Where on earth do you work? Inside the Resident Evil 4 village?

@AK4tywill In relation to where I live - on the opposite side of a reasonably sized forest
Seriously though - the southern outskirts of Warsaw, Poland

@Voltan Yikes! Spooky! The scariest thing on one of my routes home is the smell sometimes from one of the takeaway places.

The nominees for the Game Awards are pretty bad. Normally I can see the reasoning even if I don't agree completely, but this year I was just staring at the screen in disbelief.

Don't really see a reason to be watching this year!

@Kidfried tbh this year did not realy have those stand out games from previous years.

the only thing i don't realy agree with is that returnal is not nominated.

it's a weird omisson tbh.

@jdv95 It's weird to me seeing Ratchet & Clank nominated, while Returnal got snubbed. Even here on Push Square you'll hardly find people naming R&C their favorite game of the year. There's zero chance it'll take the price home.

@Kidfried funny you say that cause it's leading the poll right now on push square lol.

another weird thing is cyberpunk for best soundtrack.

like what? that soundtrack was nowhere near great. it was just some techno stuff. nothing realy stading out exept for 1 radio song.

@jdv95 You forget that Grimes did the Game Awards a couple years back to promote Cyberpunk. It’s all connected!

@jdv95 Wouldn't have guessed that. Maybe that game is more highly regarded than I thought. Played quite some games released this year, and while Ratchet & Clank was a very decent game and I enjoyed it, I struggle to name an aspect of the game that would make it top tier.

Monster Hunter Rise getting snubbed for GOTY is a bad joke. I don't care at all about what wins this year.

@Kidfried I don't really play enough games to feel that I can really judge what should be game of the year however I have played Ratchet and Clank and Returnal and I also can't believe the former got a nomination and the latter didn't. Agreed R&C is a solid game, sure, but nothing groundbreaking 🤷‍♂️

@Kidfried the one thing people speak highly off are the visuals.

it was praised to be the first real next gen looking game by some notable people.

enough to win GOTY? no.
but then again my personal pick goes to guardians of the galaxy

R&C looked great, was generally great on the tech side and had a nice story with some good performances (Jennifer Hale as Rivet was excellent). It is one of my favorite games this year but I'm not sure I'd nominate it either and certainly not over Returnal

Hey @nessisonett @RogerRoger @kyleforrester87 @kidfried @Johnnyshoulder any of you gents fancy joining a game of Borderlands 2 at all? It was free on plus a few months back.

@themcnoisy I don't think I claimed it dude as I had already played it on the 360.

@themcnoisy Unfortunately I have very little free time! Hopefully the degree will make up for the lack of gaming time 😂

The sky was particularly bright today

@JohnnyShoulder fair one bro.

@nessisonett no problem mate. Good luck with uni.

@themcnoisy sounds good tbh but I don’t have the game, psplus or the time really 😂

Got Diablo 2? 😉

@themcnoisy I'll play you at FIFA, if you want... I actually bought it this year. Arsenal vs. Everton!
