That's different. In a wc setting big teams will be much more ruthless. See Spain. They are shit in friendlies but on the big stage they have been great (bar the confed final but even then Brazil were ruthless)

They might or they might not. Italy didn't make it out of their group in 2010 and neither did France. Spain made hard work of their group too. Brazil haven't had a great time in the past two world cups.

On paper, yeah, the defence might get mullered. It doesn't always work like that though. It's like the knobjockeys on radio talking up Arsenal's chances before the United game: "Their midfield is far superior to United's therefore they are going to dominate and come away with a convincing win".

Speaking of English youngsters, is there a young GK to keep an eye out for?

From the Knack thread

I just ended a session at chapter 4 on hard mode and so far I'm loving this game. I really can't see how this game could be considered a three or four out of ten. I'm actually enjoying Knack more than Killzone or Resogun.

Haha I love big Knack's swagger.

Only on Chapter 1-2 but I'm loving what I've played so far.

Just got the game, so far its been great! I just don't understand what reviewers were expecting this to be. Well too early to give a definite opinion but I like it so far.

Edit: I'm also enjoing this more than KZ and Resogun... And CoD and Battlefield...

The more I play, the less I understand how this game reviewed so poorly. It's really fun.

I think I'm going to make note of those reviewers who gave Knack a positive review, because, at least in this case, their taste seems to match mine.

Just as I expected innit.

Your delusional Knack hype post killed the thread. Congrats.

from the "your favourite ps4 launch titles" thread:

Only played Knack and Killzone, but Knack is fun and Killzone is boring.

Knack is the game I can't pull myself away from to play my other PS4 games. Loving it!

Knack. It's a 90's-era 3D action adventure/platformer littered with old-game ideas. Slippery floor tiles, bridges that collapse as you cross, gusts of wind that push you off of platforms, etc. New hazards/enemies are introduced in one area and then they are immediately built upon in the next. It's like a demonstration on how to make your first game. I love it.

Game's got that Crash Bandicoot influence in spades too, right down to the enemy types and their stage placement. Now, if only had a cool From Software Evergrace/Eternal Ring-like equivalent for my PS4 then I'd be in heaven.

The two I seem to keep going back to are Knack and Resogun.

Not sure yet. Knack so far is shocking me with how good it is and Killzone is pretty dope.

Not being able to play PS4 for a while [uk release date/cash] but after watching hours of streams of various games I'm leaning towards Knack

I'd much rather sell him to Juve than Madrid. Bonucci can fuck off though

Half Life 2 is by far the most overrated game I've ever played

It's so cool that you can live-stream games from a console. Always wanted that feature.

Not too bothered by livestreaming, just wanted game recording so I can share highlights. Now we have reached the promised land

Bit worried about doing that in BF4 though. The recording function only goes back 15 minutes, and matches can take an age, so I'm not sure if you have to quit the game to save the last 15 minutes and make sure you capture the bit you want to record.

I'm gonna stream some Killzone and BF4 on Saturday 30th if anyone is interested. Might even commentate if anyone wants

edit: Do I have to upgrade my twitch account to broadcast, or is it enough to have a normal account and a PS4?

Juve have some good players that Liverpool could use in a swap deal, but I can't see such a complicated deal going through, since it would probably need 3 players from Juve's side to make up the difference unless they offered someone like Pogba.

I wouldn't mind Rodgers having a go at moving Asamoah back to CM though, or even trying to redeem Isla.

Saturday 30th November. 7pm (Spanish football permitting)

At least 2 squads of 3-5 on opposite teams.

Are you and FW sharing a PS4 for now? (Does Wilbs even live at home or was he just there for half-term? (if that's what you call break from uni))


Killzone apparently doesn't have a squad system yet, which is a ridiculous oversight indicative of a game pushed out the door for launch

Yeah we're sharing a PS4. He was going to move out and take one of our PS3s with him, but it was just too expensive, so he decided to stay at home.

You don't review games that way

On its own it's a very good game, review scores shouldn't take into account double dipping

That would end up with PC console ports getting bad scores

"Juventus have cheekily proposed a swap deal for Liverpool's Luis Suarez after learning of the Anfield club's interest in Claudio Marchisio - previously of interest to Manchester United and Chelsea - and Leonardo Bonucci."

In theory (or FM), this could work. Because Marchisio's MV is 30-40M (the offer we rejected from Monaco) and Bonucci is worth 15M (at least).

But I don't see it happening for many reasons.

Spoiler

Marchisio = our Stevie G <3

I wouldn't mind Rodgers having a go at moving Asamoah back to CM though, or even trying to redeem Isla.

Now THIS could happen! Asa is surplus (in midfield) and Isla can't seem to find his Udinese form.

Bonucci can fuck off though

He turned into Beckenbauer last season and was one of our standout performers!

His role is MORE than just a defender, he's our back up deep-lying playmaker! There's a reason why Bayern marked him AND Pirlo.

Brendan would love him.

 

[Broder Salsa]

Also stop defending Knack you bellend. Just look at that character you play as, that alone should be reason enough for it to get shit scores, what the fuck is that, ugliest thing in gaming history? and the voice, oh god.

What I don't understand if why there's not even any platforming in it, the combat can be decent enough, but no one wants to just play that combat all the way through the game with no variation, the game is begging for some platforming.

Got him confused with Borriello, even though he doesn;t even play for you any more

Yeah, we could do with Bonnucci, upgrade to the Skrtel position

Simplistic level design, terrible character design and Knack's voice mean that even if everything else about it was perfect, it couldnn't deserve more than a 7/10

Do you have a scouser's accent?

Nah, my accent is pretty much generic South East England. I mumble a lot though, so you won't understand me anyway
