A little about me.
This is my new account.
I'm a gamer, mainly on PC, PlayStation and Xbox
Been gaming since the ZX Spectrum and pretty much play most genres but RPG's are 👌
Also have a keen interest in space and the cosmos
Here to chat games and share a lot of game pics!😁
My daughter is off school for the summer now, and she has always wanted to have an "all nighter" since I told her about my LAN parties of old.
So.......we are going to have our own little LAN party tonight!
Moving her PC into the same room as mine, got a load of snacks and
Her PC is all set up downstairs now ready.
She had to add various "essentials" to her temporary setup of course..... Small plastic plants, little potion bottles, toys..... And of course sweets!
It's just before 3am and sleepiness is taking its toll on her so we are going to wind down the games, stick a movie on and fall asleep. In the living room on the sofas to close out our LAN party night 😁.
Daughter said it was the best night ever and I had an amazing evening with
@KERR0N
We have a few on the agenda... 😁
Minecract
Castle Crashers
Rayman Legends
Sackboy a big adventure
Grounded
Vampire Survivors
And we may try out No Man's Sky
We both just got up.... At midday 😁.
The response to this whole thread is overwhelming. I have just shown my daughter how many people have now liked and commented and she over the moon that so many people have been so nice and shown an interest in out little evening!
A nice
And.....the fun continues 😁.
Back into our Minecraft world, some more progress made on our house and a material gathering expedition planned!
Daughter took some time to decorate and chnage the roof.
I can definately see this turning into a weekend long LAN party for the two

I have 200+ hours in Elden Ring on Xbox and another 70 hours on my recent PC playthrough.
I have 100% on both versions.
But this..... Is the greatest challenge I have faced. I simply cannot best this boss!!
Maybe it's my build, but I am having my ass handed to me again and
@GavinConnolly17
I started handing her the controller at like 4/5 but she didn't really "play" just moved stuff around.
She got into gaming a lot more in the last 2-3 years (she's 11 in a couple of months)
@humblemudgames
Thank you 🙂.
We had such a brilliant time together, to be able to do this with her meant the world to me.
She already went and told her friend next door about her night 😁.
Hi all!

I BEAT HIM
- How it went down in my head canon.....
After numerous defeats, my character went into exile, leaving all vestiges of humanity behind.
After months of grueling training and sacrifice, she returned. Better, wiser, stronger and thus ensued the most epic battle ever
So..... Daughter and I have settled on a game to try out this evening playing cooperatively...... Halo!!
Will be her first time playing and suffice it to say..... I'm am pretty damn excited for her to check this out with me!

You are all awesome, thank you!!!!
PS - Play Prey 😉
I found this really impressive.
Once you picked up the projector, it could have just become a static object and stopped projecting.
But it continues to project the video as you move around, the video continues to reflect through the games amazing RT.
It's a small detail but
Today I celebrate 13 years of marriage to my amazing wife.
An incredible woman and my best friend, who has supported me through some tough times and with whom I have shared the best years of my life.
I love the life and family we have built.
Here's to growing old together 🥂
@Dalmgrim
Yeh, she moved to PC properly last year.
It's quite modest at the moment (specs wise), but she loves it and I'm going to slowly upgrade it for her over time 😁

I'm unable to follow any more accounts at the moment and seemingly, I also cannot reply to anyone!
I guess because it's a new account?
I'll get round to following as soon as I am able 👍
Just did the first hour of Halo Combat Evolved with my daughter.
Playing through this campaign, in the same room as each other, LAN party style, is not only insanely nostalgic..... but it's also peak gaming.
And........ She absolutely loved it!! 😁
Will be doing a bit more of

Thanks mate!
Suffice to say, I was shocked when I saw how much traction this got!
I told my daughter and the amazing response from the community just added to an already wonderful night
Have not commented on this situation yet with Dr Disrespect, don't follow him or anything.
But just seen the statement, and I'll say this.
I'm a father, and for me, any messages between a grown adult and a minor, are inappropriate, nothing "leaning" about it

My daughter has a friend over and they are sat on her PC playing coop Untitled Goose Game while I am sat playing Elden Ring at the other end of the room, attempting to beat promised consort Radahn.

Great couple of hours on Halo with the daughter, continuing our campaign run.

I cannot overstate how much of a difference the full Path Tracing in Cyberpunk makes to the overall presentation.
Still shots don't really do it justice.
It's not just the reflections, but the way light interacts with the environment, especially inside buildings, is just

She's asked for a new coop, story base
Going through family photos and found this one from a camping trip in 2017 when daughter was just under 4 years old.
Going through all these really made me realise how much time flies and how important it is to cherish all these moments.
Also, need to go camping again! It's
Just watched the IGN First gameplay for Star Wars Outlaws and I think it looks great.
Is it the most polished game I have seen? Of course not, and it doesn't need to be..
We can't on the one hand be concerned over the rising costs of game development and then criticise a game

Daughter was on Grounded this morning.
Came down, REALLY excited and was like
"I was in my house, and 2 red ants were outside, but then a ladybird came and it was an epic battle and the ladybird won and I scavanged the ant parts!"

Control really does feature some of the best RT I have seen in a game.
Reflections are the obvious one but the combination of all the RT features, coupled with the official MOD that increases ray count, is just sublime.
The image below is the RT reflection, the amount of detail

On PC... Maxed out, with the additional RT options, at 60, it goes beyond the stunning PS5 version - insanely good looking

Playing Cyberpunk prompted me to download this absolute masterpiece on PC to play through again in the not so distant future.
Obv I had to quickly jump in for a few mins last night to check out the visuals..... And I wasn't disappointed!

Coffee consumed, breakfast had, stew in the slow cooker and heading out to do some shopping with the family before heading to the gym.
Will then arrive home to the glorious smell of tonights dinner, and settle down with another freshly ground coffee to get some gaming done.
Whilst I sit working...... This is how my daughter has spent her day!!!
I miss the school summer holidays when I could spend the day doing this without a care in the world!!

So we bought our daughter one of those drawing pads for PC as she loves to draw and says she wants to design video game characters....
First creation was leaning into her recent Pokemon obsession!
She said next will be an original character.... Though knowing her it will likely
I was curious how this part in Ratchet & Clank would hold up on PC vs the low level API's on PS5.
Answer? Flawlessly.
This is the max possible settings including all RT on max

Extra fan added to cooler, new SSD installed and thermal paste replaced whilst at it for good measure.
I know water coolers are a lot smaller and seeker, but I love this Noctua air cooler and how it fits with my black, RGB less (apart from that
