Gamer's - Let's Talk Gaming

madscouser69

Hey there fellow gamers,

After chatting to like minded people on here and enjoying the posts, I have set up this thread up devoted to anything to do with electronic gaming (I hope this is allowed), be it PC, console, or even mobile gaming, it all counts, we are in this together 😉 . who knows, if it becomes popular they may even sticky it

Please feel free to discuss anything game related here, be it sharing your PC Specs, posting a photo of your setups/gaming areas(man caves) to discussing new games, retro games, giving tips or even giving the heads up on the best Gaming & Peripheral deals around. I will try and be as active as I can on this thread, I hope you will join me. It will be great to see this take off and to keep all game related stuff in one place

I look forward to hearing from you all

Gamers Unite

Cheers

@madscouser69 Yeah I had all the Dirt games on a PC hooked up to the tv till the PC went kaput so replaced them all for around £20 on the PS3 I've played them to death so looking forward to Rally arriving.

Dirt Rally is a fantastic game. Brutal though, you don't have the luxury of Rewind like the previous games in the series.

@baconbutty what wheel do you have?

@extreme_one I remember you mentioning Rally to me a few months ago how it's harder than the others I don't use a wheel just the controller.
