    I know loads of people that have already completed it - I'm about 35% in.

    If you just stick to the main missions it's a pretty short game, it's all about side missions, buying and selling stocks, buying houses, taxi ranks, doing your cars up, buying various business, robbing gas stations, going on mad POlice chases etc etc etc....


    'Blue Ark' radio station on it is the bollox <ok>



    But is so random at times, funny as ****. I switched character to Trevor and he was asleep on a motorway bridge just wearing his y-fronts. Then I went on a 'rampage' mission just wearing my pants <ok>

    Because it's a crazzzy game - with dark humour and is funny as ****.

    One of the Rampage missions is to kill 25 rednecks (24+Bluff) in 2 minutes <laugh>

    I just had a look at the new FIFA14 Ultimate Team web interface. I got in-form Ramsey in my free pack. Some nice things I noticed:

    No preferred formations any more, just positions. This makes things a lot easier if you want to change your style a bit. No more hunting for cheap 4-3-3 cards!

    Real-life teams now have home, away and third kits, and you can assign any of them as your ultimate team home or away kit.

    FIFA 14 ordered, should be in asap! Still playing Diablo 3, with each class ( even though the story only changes slightly) it is still addicting to build that class up and get as many legendary items as well. I am waiting on GTA 5 as well ( sister got it for me) <diva>

  12. GTA5 will have to wait if I get Fifa at the same time (likely)

    Got Fifa yesterday and played a few matches. The most frustrating Fifa I've played in years. Gameplay has been completely overhauled and I feel like a complete noob again. My players feel like they're running through treacle and all first touches are complete **** so it's impossible to retain possession, but opponents don't seem to have any of these issues.

    Then I turned it down to Professional and found things a lot easier, although I did read somewhere that defending is much easier now but that's a load of bollocks. The opposition just 1-touch pass it into the box and tap it in for most of their goals. I don't think I've scored a 'good' goal yet, just a few from crosses and the odd through ball. Through balls are a million times better in 14 though, they'll cleverly knock it behind the defence through gaps instead of just ahead of the target player.

    I didn't play the demo so maybe that's partly why I'm finding it hard to get used to it.

    P.S. I've just been playing manager mode.

    Does anyone know if my UT will be the same on Xbox One? I don't want to spend a while building up a squad on 360 for me to then have to start over.

    I think you are the first person I had seen or come across that has had a negative view on the game. What is your playing style though in the games?

  16. I'm liking the sound of this review <ok>

    I don't like it when you pick up a new Fifa and it is just an upgrade on the previous one, it usually means I get board of it far too quickly. If its like a new game and you have to start over then I will get far more joy out of it <ok>

    GTA 5 arrived yesterday, up until 2am playing last night

    Love it so far, not played a GTA since Vice City so enjoying getting back into it and is very different. Loving the option to play as different characters and each having their own missions etc.

    Very True. However, once you have to combine all 3 characters to complete one mission is when the game gets going - some of the missions are insane that involve playing as a team <ok>
