Miguel Sanchez

Not far off. I'm pretty sure she got kept in for the first episode purely so they could have her in front of the DS with her story She couldn't do any of the tasks and was in a complete mess even trying. Get her out and be done with it.

Exactly what I was about to say. The downfall of Buzzcocks is one of modern television's great travesties.

He's been doing the Australian version of this for a while. Tonight's episode suggests he's going to be a big loss. Absolutely tearing through them. Delightful.

Anyway, this national anthem piece is just making me wonder what the Dutch is for "scrambling for relevance"

Edwards retired at the end of last season.

Republic of Ireland national football team - Wikipedia Genuinely looks like a squad full of regens. I'm convinced half of them are made up.

Have any of your former clubs gone on to achieve anything?

Nesbit looking very Eugene Thundercunt-esque here.

Did I ever post my Beyond: Two Souls review on here? What an experience that was.

Seems like lots of them are bullshit, since this popped up in my youtube suggestions:

A streamer I watch told a story once about when he worked in a call centre for people phoning up to claim on insurance. I couldn't do that. He had a girl on the phone once whose dad had had a heart attack while driving, so the insurance company wouldn't cover the cost of the crash because he was considered dead at the moment of impact. There was also someone he worked with who apparently bragged about making people cry when they phoned up, so there's two reasons I could never do that.

Post Office life insurance with a small extremely Welsh child. Not enough Limmy faces in the world to convey how bad this accent is.

I lasted half an hour.

I've started watching The West Wing. I don't think I can handle 150 episodes of this style of dialogue.

Not a Guinness drinker but I'm enjoying this account

Early Stereophonics is a terrible shout here and I never understood why people seemed to hate them so much, until I saw this and understood completely: Toe curling.

The Italian Grand Prix that year (16th of September) had a lot less fanfare, had the podium presentations curtailed and had a lot of people not wanting to do it. Ferrari ran a livery with no sponsors: I can't imagine Ferrari running a car at their home race with no sponsors now.

You of all people have some brass neck posting this and believing it.

Grand Theft Auto III (PS4, 2015 - originally PS2, 2001) Grand Theft Auto III is one of the most important video games in history. Released early in the 5th console generation's life cycle it transformed its own series and video games in general. Wildly popular with the buying public, it set the course for its own series' future, its developer Rockstar's future, and every other video game publisher who has since put out a 3D, third person, open world game. "Sandbox" as a term exists because this game exists, and Vice City, San Andreas, IV, V and the seemingly endless GTA Online have all followed, with V and Online in particular dominating games for the past eight years in a way which has ironically rendered the creation of anything as influential as III redundant. I've played it over the last few weeks. It has not aged well. You play as Claude, a man with no voice and remarkably square shoulders who is left behind by his girlfriend when a heist goes wrong. He escapes the police and finds himself in Liberty City, a pastiche of New York City, and has to fend for himself. He ends up involved with an array of criminal gangs and other colourful individuals, trying to survive his encounters with all of them. Along the way he ends up involved in and terrorised by the hot new drug that's sweeping the city, Spank. In addition to these story missions there are a range of now standard GTA activities for you to partake in - side-missions, stunt jumps, pointless hidden collectables. All in all I spent over forty hours with the game, so you can't deny that it's filled with content. The story is largely irrelevant. Once you've finished a certain character's story thread they and their gang will turn on you, meaning you get shot at relentlessly when you're driving around. It doesn't really matter which gang you're involved with at any one time, since missions don't offer much in the way of variety. Although limited in scope the game's writing and characterisation is very good, with several characters memorable despite their questionable appearances and limited screen time. Donald Love and Asuka are my personal favourites, with the mafia guy's off-screen haranguing mother in the background whenever you turn up at his restaurant another highlight. Now, the gameplay. It seems that on PC you can play this game with an assortment of mods that make the game look a lot nicer. From what I've seen that is genuinely nice, but not essential. From what I've seen you can also play with control of the third person camera. You get a crosshair you can move around manually. I honestly can't explain how it feels to not have independent camera control. Imagine trying to walk without feet. Imagine not being able to move your neck from side to side. Then imagine it being even more awkward. Whenever I play older games I can easily make excuses for them. Rayman 2 remains one of my favourite games and I could play it right now with no problems. I never got used to GTA III though. Not being able to move the camera when on foot and having to rely on very vague aiming mechanics when you're surrounded by enemies means you'll have the health and armour cheats memorised quickly, and you'll be using them a lot. Mission design isn't great in this respect, as you're usually faced with a group or groups of people shooting at you. Complete some missions and you'll have people shooting at you the whole time as you start angering the various gangs that populate the streets. There are a few design and mechanical choices like this that feel a bit poorly thought through, with ideas that seem good in the moment but just get annoying quickly when you have to deal with them for any length of time. The worst part of the game which is bad from a historical perspective as well as in its own right is the map. It's awful. There isn't a viewable map in-game and I don't have a physical one since I was playing a digital version of the game. The minimap only has two colours and doesn't distinguish when roads are on top of one another. As you progress through the game's three islands this gets worse. The first area is fine. The second area is a bit more complicated with alleyways and overhead bridges making things a bit more complicated, but it's manageable. The third area is the worst of the lot, with about four separate areas with only one route between each. By the end of the game I'd almost remembered how to get around. Bonus points too for your safehouse here being in the least logically designed part of the map. If Vice City has a map you can access through the menu and custom waypoints, I'm happy to take back everything I've said about III's influence and transfer it. That said, there is enough detail in the game to find charming and overcome its flaws. The different handling characteristics of the different cars is noticeable. Same goes for driving offroad or in the rain. As mentioned the characters are mostly well-written and entertaining, certainly enough to compensate for the lack of engagement from the player-character. Several radio stations are brilliant. Rise FM is amazing and it's nice to hear the original version of Chatterbox. If I was able to overlook the flaws I've described and stick with it for forty hours, the good points surely have to count for something. All in all, my verdict is wait for the remakes supposedly to come in 2021. I know people generally think highly of Vice City, so at least I have that to look forward to.

Why hasn't he been vaccinated?
