    Not sure why people are expecting anything from Aberdeen. If they hadn’t beat us they would be bottom of the league… they are brutal.

    Rockstar rely heavily on reiteration, they also use their own engine(RAGE) which is one of, if not the best engine out there for open world games like GTA and Red dead. The developers on both sides will have been in constant dialogue with each other throughout development ensuring it’s capable of handling their vision. From the leaks it was suggested they are building GTA6 around RAGE9 which is rumoured to be every bit as powerful as UE5… and in some ways even more powerful. I.e it can handle 16k textures whilst UE5 can only do 12k.
    The engine improvements from GTA5 to Red dead 2 were massive.. no reason to believe we won’t get a similar level of advancement again.

    Probably, but there’s a possibility it might not even be as late as that. Spring 2024 could even be an outside shout.
    GTA5 and Red Dead didn’t have the smoothest run ups to launch for Rockstar… they got a lot of bad press regarding their crunch culture which led to numerous delays. Since then they’ve completely restructured their development cycles.
    The game has been in development for 9 years now… I suspect they’ve deliberately held off on announcing it until the game is almost done. So I’m not expecting a long launch window or any delays this time round.
    GTA is one of the few games that can release on any day of the year it wishes. It will smash records regardless.
    It will just come down to what financial year rockstar want the game to fall into(Runs Oct to Sept in the USA)

    Back from holiday, blues are horrendous (as is jetlag) so been playing SM2, and loving it.
    It is very much same as before, but addition of having the ability to switch between characters, and each having their own moveset, style, side-missions etc makes it fresh.
    Also really looking forward to getting my teeth into the story. The first one was incredible for that.
    The original Spider-Man 2 is my favourite super-hero game of all time, closely closely followed by Spider-Man PS4... Judging by @Iakona's comments, could Spider-Man 2 lose its place at last to, well, Spider-Man 2?!

    To be fair to Hagi he has something like 40 goal contributions in 99 games for us. What other midfielder or winger has achieved that in recent years?
    It’s actually pretty good for someone who doesn’t tend to play 90 mins every game… nor is he in the team every week and when he is… it’s not always in the same position. 
    He’s obviously got his limits… he’s not quick and sometimes he’s abit overly keen to make things happen, but he is a useful squad player. Plus at this point he’s most definitely a better option than Wright or Lammers.

    It’s a learning curve… not for the players but for Clement.
    He will only learn who he can trust by playing them… from what I’ve been led to understand he is the kind of manager who believes in taking players with him/improving them… however once you let him down you’re out on your arse.

    Good chance that this may happen to several players as this game at the Piggery tonight is developing in to the definition of a grudge match. With Atletico honouring their 1974 team with the replica kit and bringing along a couple of players from it, combined with FC, continuing to rage and greet 50 years after the fact, things were already set up nicely. Now I am hearing that Brentan has been bumping his gums about settling scores and running up a few goals tonight, going for a big win no less. I am sure that Simeone will have taken note. Obviously there is a chance that that Mhob might get a result tonight, but hopefully a fired up Atletico can rattle a few in and then concentrate on truly honouring the surviving members of the team of 74 in a style they will appreciate.
