Fair enough having a moan as it is wrong and should of course work. But if you want something that never goes wrong then you're well out of luck with both consoles. In fact Xbox Live is massively more reliable online than PSN and as i personally only play online i don't think i could ever go to Playstation as i'm always seeing people complain about it.

Xbox Live

PSN

Xbox never had that problem on 360 though, its having major problems for xbox one.

I don't think I have ever had a problem with PSN going down. Only when its on maintenance.

10 game free this weekend on Steam

You can get XCOM: Enemy Unknown for free to keep. Sign up on this website: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/joystick/ and verify your account. Then vote on the golden joystick awards and when you've done that, go here: https://goldenjoysticks.greenmangaming.com/ fill in the little form, link your steam account and you get XCOM: Enemy unknown for free. It says "while stocks last" but I did it just now and got an email instantly with a code for the game.

When I tried to sell one ages ago they didn't accept.

Any independent games shops near by?

Some of them are PS3 games. I realised I don't think my BF4 one came with one which helps

No only a Cex and Game. I live in the countryside with a smallish town about 15 minutes either side of me

Was going to use it as in store credit towards a Xbone

It will not stick and they know it. Ubisoft is due a shitstorm very soon as well considering you won't be able to play PvP in FC4 without the season pass.

Good game, really enjoyed it. Gets very, very easy towards the end though. Early on it's tough fighting one captain, near the end it's easy even if there's 4 or 5.

I was really excited to get it when I first saw the trailers, just didn't bother on release with FIFA being out etc. Would you say it's worth getting?

If your into open world games then you should defiantly get it. You can spend ages just going around killing Uruks if you don't fancy missions

Yeah it's certainly worth it, especially if you've played and enjoyed the AC and Arkham games.

Just picked it up on PS4. Wasn't going to bother this year but got a Platinum on Battlefield 4 which i prefer usually to COD but heard great things and a few people i play with online have it. Interested so see how it is later.

I pre-ordered before the news about first person with the intention of playing through the game again. Im looking forward to it more now after seeing that

Hopefully the shift of perspective will feel like its a new game to some degree.
