Looks like the talk of more than one season to cover the second game is pretty much official now and given how good the ratings are for the show its hard to imagine things changing enough in season 2 to stop a third season happening.

Well that was a really good finale. Now just have to wait about 18 months or so for the next one.

You'd think so but I think they said in the official podcast that they didn't really want to start making content up that isn't based off the games so I kind of got the impression that they were only going to make the show to cover them. So sounds like 3 seasons might be it. As you say you'd imagine HBO and Sony would be desperate to get as much from it as they can. Druckmann has said that he's only going to make a third game once he has a good idea for it and unless they're already a couple of years into making it I don't think a new game would arrive in time for the show to take content from without there being a fairly long gap.

Season 1 covers game 1 only. They've obviously not finalised everything for season 2 yet but the makers have said they think there's enough content in game 2 to cover more than one season of TV.

Problem is how many clubs abroad can afford to pay the inflated Premier League transfer fees Arsenal would still be looking to get? Can't be too many and no guarantee those clubs would be interested. Do agree though, at least Newcastle appear to be a club on the up.

If the weather's decent I thought taking the ferry over to the nearby islands gave some decent sights, nothing too exciting over there but if the suns out its a pretty pleasant place to explore. Some decent bars along the main waterfront. We took in a Blue jays game as well, more to see the Rogers Centre than anything.

Have to admit I'm surprised how little they've done with the "fungal network" thing. I thought they would maybe just ignore it as and when it suits but pretty much since the episode they introduced it it's never been referenced again. I am surprised as well just how little the infected have been in it too. They've used them well when they have though and maybe just don't want to have them just being randomly offed in every episode in case it lessens their effect which I think kind of happened with shows like The Walking Dead.

I'm sure there'll be some clauses in the deal but the club definitely reported paying a fee for Duk so not sure what the free but with 50% claim is based on. Portuguese guy guesting on one of the Aberdeen podcasts recently said he thought the fee was 400k with no sell on percentage so who knows what the truth of it is.

They released the episode lengths before the series started. Assuming nothing has changed episode 9 is the shortest of them all at 43 minutes. https://wegotthiscovered.com/tv/how-long-are-the-last-of-us-episodes/

Pretty good episode 8. Liked it a fair bit more than 7. Haven't really had too many complaints about the series. The only real criticisms I've had is more that I've preferred the way the game did certain things rather than actual real issues with the episodes. I think both episodes 7 and 8 suffered with feeling a bit rushed compared to how they're done in the game but short of every episode being an hour and a half long I'm not sure how much they can do about it. I assume the budget is pretty big for the show and so they probably weren't willing to stretch it to 12-13 episodes which maybe in an ideal world may have been the best thing.

Wilder talk appears to be back on.

Keep slagging him please?

Scales coming on fair increases the fear.

Good news

It's fine. Wouldn't go overboard about it. It reminds me of the recent Assassins Creed games where its a big giant map with a ton of icons for things to do, which i like but is not to everyones taste. Can definitely get repetitive though. I used Microsoft Rewards points I'd saved up so didn't use any of my own money on it. So I'd maybe be harsher if I'd spent around £60 on it.

Well should save us some money from Goodwin's compensation at least.

Most of the last ten minutes has been McIntyre having a stiffy over the "awkward" press conference for the cup final. Seems far happier talking about that than any of the games.

Man if this really is everyone that's in the running it really is pretty uninspiring.

Good episode again. They really look to be maintaining the quality all the way through. From the trailer it looks like episode 7 is covering the .

Some going to go from a 4-4 draw to a 7-0 win against same opponents a couple days later. Guessing the lineups were probably quite different and maybe there were some red cards for a pumping that big?

Bit of a non update really. Just asking fans to be patient as they're taking their time. Says Burrows will be involved in the "next step" when he starts.

Sure if you just ignore the context of the person who posted it being a massive troll. Previous threads would suggest there will now be weeks of him posting about how Gunn is actually the worst goalkeeper Scotland could choose and about how he is a genius and anyone that disagrees with him is an idiot.

Oh well that's likely another thread in this forum unreadable now that numbers boy has chosen another hill to troll from.
