Boozy The Clown

Do a rain race. You'll go all woowoo inside.

I want a monkey.

Why wouldn't they be ?

Will this also have the "gamer physics" from Dirt 4 or will it just feature bastard hard mode ?

It's one of the weekly championships. Big red symbol up at Glen Rannoch (north west of mainland). 3 races beat AI cars on expert to win it. Wait for tonight's update to fix a bug that almost had my brother chuck a pad at his OLED.

As a kid I was off sick and played Defender on a borrowed Atari until I had so many extra lives I couldn't ever lose. It was many years ago so my memory may be tainted and I'm sure someone will be along momentarilly to tell me such a thing wasn't possible.

Great enthusiastic write up, just a shame that the "power of the cloud" is a unicorn and will never be good enough to be used for gaming tech.

Game of the Year A1. Sea of Thieves - I had more fun with this than any other game this generation A2. Forza Horizon 4 - I thought I was getting bored with FH after no.3 but good God they've done something special with this A3. Red Dead Redemption 2 - Made me rewatch Deadwood in preparation. A bold move with the pacing but it immerses you utterly in it's world and characters. A4. Far Cry 3 Classic Edition - My favourite FC made nicer A5. Metropolis Lux Obscura - Sin City inspired match 3 puzzler, terrible yet compulsive. Biggest Disappointment of the Year (game, hardware, or anything else) Z1. Xbox Elite pad falling to bits Z2. The critical reception of Sea of Thieves. Z3. My ever growing mountain of shame that grows exponentially every month thanks to GWG, Game Pass and Backwards Compatibility Z4. Youtubers, Streamers and Influencers critiquing games/industry while selling their souls for hits and $$$$$$ Z5. The Industry shaming itself with a new controversy on a daily basis. Sound Design of the Year S1. Sea of Thieves - every sound is gameplay related. S2. Forza Horizon 4 - There's sound everywhere and it changes every week S3. Red Dead Redemption 2 - Visual Design of the Year V1. Red Dead Redemption 2 - That 4K level of detail V2. Sea of Thieves - The Sea V3. Forza Horizon 4 - Seasons Writing of the Year W1. The sheer volume & delivery of voice acting in Red Dead Redemption 2 W2. Hitman 2 - Every NPC conversation having genuine wit. W3. Gaming Format (System) of the Year F1. Xbox One X Publisher or Developer of the Year P1. Microsoft - Game Pass & Backwards Compatibility Best Supported Game (released pre 2018) of the Year B1. Forza Motorsport 7 Your game of the year that didn't come out this year (basically what is your favourite game you played this year that came out in 2017 or earlier) X1. Forza Motorsport 7 Best game character of the year C1. C2. C3.

Out tomorrow, free for car pass owners. Love it.

All of them.

Easy on the gas, you'll catch up at corners braking earlier then tapping the throttle rather than flooring it. It took me a good few go's to win.

Speaking of chsmpionships, this week's Old Rivals series top prize is the Hoonigan RS200, basically one of the best cars in the game made better. You have to win the series on Expert difficulty to get it. You have a choice of 2 cars I reccommend the Lancia with added offroad tyres and extended width to get there. The car you win is fantastic.

Been on it 5 nights this week. Shame to see it appearing on lots of disappointing games of 2018 by people who haven't played it since day one.

Brad Sams (Microsoft speculator /analyst/leaker/cheerleader) with lots of speculation discussion on where Xbox is going next gen.

I've seen a few comments saying it looks shit based on that video, but the character is around level 2 in progression and you max out at 6. The original was crack once you got hooked on orbs and levelling up.
