Anybody got the 'games with gold' thing with xbox ? Where you get two free games a month.

The current game is Sleeping Dogs which is worth a download

No

 

[KingEric07.]

No

I take it you don't have the gold subscription or do you just not bother with the free games ?

The player-manager mode meant you was one of the individual players within the squad as well as the team manager. Best of both worlds. Now, you can only do one or the other. Player mode means you have no control over team affairs, you just play the games however the team is setup. Manager mode means you have full control so can pick players, formations, make transfers and play the matches still but you are not part of the player squad.

thanks so I play the game sbut there no "player" I am also that increase in stats as i play. its say luis suarez up front not gerrez the wunderkind.

So i control LFc team on the pitch pass it about score goals rather than FM type watch the thing happen.


.................

Did i ask you guys yesterday about phone games? I flicked through my phone looking for some racing game or other but found knights of the old republic, a pc game i played years ago now on phones and tablets. anyone remember that game?

KOTOR is one of the greatest games ever made.

Do you need gold to play games online? I didn't buy a card, I just connected to internet and used PayPal.

Didn't know there was free games either as I've not explored what can be done.

Yes, you play the games. You can just watch or simulate if you want as well though.

There is different types of online subscriptions with the xbox.

If you've got a gold subscription you are able to a a free game available every 2 weeks. You're also about to buy games at discounted rates on xbox live market place.

In a nut shell, Sony will be using a cloud type service to where you can take your games anywhere and play them on your phone, tablet, PSvita, etc. Also showing off some of the new tv's and tech. A lot has been made about steam machines, was a little lost there.

I might (i.e might if the wife and kids let me) try this on fifa 12 if i get a chance to set up that PS3.

Yep, Ibe is disappointing TBH. I bought him whilst in League Two so he got plenty of game time (on left) and got about 15 goals too. He doesn't get much of a look in now but no point in selling him because he's not worth much and I wouldn't be able to get anything better.

Just had a surprise though. The board signed a player without my consent. As soon as I saw this I thought "you batards". Went to the squad to have a look and he's a CB rated at 74 so actually improves my first team, can't complain

Is it because one of your players retired? The game will place a regenerated version of that player into your squad, with a new name and randomised stats. That's how career mode lasts 15 seasons.

Highly recommend Mutaidi. Signed him in my Liverpool team and solid defensively but also got 4 goals in first 6 games for me as well. Doesn't have particularly good shooting skills but done well so far. Strong and high stamina so just what is missing in the Liverpool midfield at the moment

Been meaning to try him. Had a similar experience with Matic and now Fernando. I play 4-2-3-1 or a variation of 4-3-3 so the deep midfielder is always around the edge of the box or making a late run when I'm attacking. I pass the ball (a LOT) so I pin teams in and wait for the right runner, like one of them.

Which one? From Shaktar or Porto? The one from Porto has been boss for me.

No retirees. I did lose a player that was out of contract but there was about six or seven weeks between him leaving and the board signing this player. The board said the squad lacked depth (which it did, only had three outside the match day squad)

Is your owner Vincent Tan?

May pie off the Liverpool career until the winter transfer is done. With that being said G, I will play around with a lower league team and see what I can get out of it. May do Italian or German second division.

Whatever you find wouldn't be much use to me now as I'm in my fourth season and looking odds on for promotion to the Premier League. Just the scouting thing really.

Apparently I can play PS3 and PS4 games on my Xperia Z1 - **** know's how, although I've linked my PS3 username to it and it show's my library. I need to work out what the **** to do next?

Don't think Playstation now is out just yet or at least fully? Not sure to be honest.

It's on my latest phone update. But the Z1 is Sony's latest flagship phone - might not be fully activated yet though. All my PS3 games show up on my phone though

Shaktar

Is it a proper player? ie a real player?

 

[InBiscanWeTrust]

Got Benega for £8m + Toure and Costa from Shakhtar for £6.5m in Jan window.

Making midfield 3 of Mutuidi, Benega & Costa. Bit of an improve on current midfield
