    Not so precious this week, compared to last week.
    Starfield is an Xbox exclusive but it is not my exclusive as PS players should be able to play it too.

    Did anyone see those Age of Solitaire achievements? Win 10,000 games in a row? Play 100,000 games? Play 10,000 hours? Jesus Christ, it's a solitaire game, not a lifetime commitment.
    Good lord :o. I expected it to be a tripeaks style and Klondike already had me turned right off, the most boring of offerings lol, and really easy to lose, so 10k does sound totally insane!

    Game Pass has made it really hard to consider paying full price on any new title, but I'm still really considering SF6; everything I've seen about it looks great, and it is nice to have it on Xbox again so definitely want to encourage that behaviour!

    Other than that, Farworld Pioneers looks like an a hell of a lot of game! Just not so sure about the platdorming perspective for some of the content, and I never got into Minecraft or Terraria, which it reminds me of most. The building full of cats looks like a good time!

    Age of Solitaire wants to be the longest completion ever lol, maybe they misunderstand the achievement changes from microsoft Oo
    ACH_PLAYTIME_10000_HOURS
    Requires 10,000 hours of playtime.


    and Undead Horde 2 and Company of Heroes 3 sounds good.

    British of course really means English, but English is a no-no word now, unless you're talking about the language, and England is a word most people just outright avoid.

    Britain is England, Scotland, and Wales, but the Welsh are Welsh, the Scots are Scottish, and the English are the ones called British.

    There is no British accent, it's what people say when they mean an English accent. There are Welsh accents, Scots accents, and English accents, but people can't bring themselves to say English...
    Funny that u say that and have a union jack flag on your profile, instead of an english, scottish or welsh flag

    I think maybe people just don't know? Thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention but I don't think there's any conspiracy here fella.
    II understand that people not living in Britain might not know, and that's fair enough, but it's very a common here in the UK also to call English people British, and to call the Welsh Welsh and the Scots Scottish.

    There's a lot of negative connotations surrounding the English flag and calling oneself English, due to neo-nazis and similar types hijacking it.

    Australia also has, in some areas, a similar stigma in regards to someone flying the Austalian flag outside their home.

    EDIT: To the person who read my post and took it literally in the the exact opposite way to which it was meant, and took the motivation and spirit behind it also in the exact opposite way to where they came from, play fewer video games, and go and work on your reading comprehension.
    No need to be rude and condescending, apologies if I misunderstood.
    Tiny is very confrontational blocked them yesterday, hasn't been part of TA very long and their posts seem very angsty and aggressive.

    Really looking forward to stacking bodies online in Street Fighter 6.

    Also, A Building Full Of Cats sounds like a legit GOTY contender to me. Gotta pet all the cats? Sign me the fuck up.

    When I heard it was F2P, I was out, but Puzzle Quest 3 is supposed to actually be releasing on May 30th.

    Street Fighter 6 trophy list got leaked, it's not bad at all. Only a couple of grindy achievements and one that is really skill based, the rest are brain dead.
    Checked the list. The hard one is Dominating Like a Ninja for winning 10 Tournaments, which will probably be a bit of a bitch. Spirit of Encouragement for getting 600 “‘Nice’ fans” could also be a problem.

    Yeah, I see them in almost every comment section. Some people just have dangerously low self-esteem and spend every waking minute trying to pull people down to their level. These types are usually paranoid that everyone is out to get them.

    But more importantly where in the UK can I find good Shepherd's pie?
    Name a place and I will visit it one day.
    Ah, the great British pie. A conundrum to all those not from Britain! What they all want to know is what happened to the other half of the pie. Whether they are potato topped (such as cottage pie), flaky pastry topped (steak and ale pie) or crust pastry topped (apple pie), they have no base and must be served in a dish. With a pie bird in the middle if it is crust pastry.

    There could be many reasons for this. Eating was a family affair, so pies were made for the whole family to share. Maybe pastry was scarce during the World Wars. Or perhaps it is difficult to prevent the pastry at the base going soggy.

    If you ever get to Cornwall I recommend you try a Cornish pasty. Whenever I buy one from somewhere else they are nowhere near as good.
    In my opinion, being English I can't stand it when pies don't have bottoms, it's normally the best bit! what you're thinking of should be called a pot pie but unfortunately many of the pubs and restaurants that serve them seem to have forgotten! warning. I will of course mention that shepherds and cottage pie get a free pass, just because!

    Fun Fact: Pasties cannot be called a Cornish pasty unless they are made in Cornwall as they are a protected food! laugh

    ...within the EU, since 2011, as well as Melton Mowbray pork pies since 2008. Crazy.

    I'm English and I come from England. I honestly don't know what half of these posts are all about, just a load of rubbish laugh some people take things too seriously.
    Now Cornsih Pasties... they really ARE serious business. Yum yum, and yes as mentioned they're best from a real cornish bakery, still warm.
    Seems reasonable

    Yes, I enjoy Solitaire so was thinking “oh cool a new Solitaire game” and then looked at the achievement list and was like…wtf?!?

    Diablo 4 Deluxe Edition and maybe Super Mega Baseball 4 and/or SF6. I really should only get Diablo as I'd like to at least finish the campaign before Final Fantasy 16.

    More importantly why aren't the ones for veggies called Quornish Pasties?
