Nice. Normally I wouldn't buy Battlefield but I signed up for EA Access Premier and it's included so I'll definitely give it try, at least for the single-player campaign. Hopefully, I can get my hands on a 2080 by then.

I played some of the Battlefield 1 campaign. It was fun. I'm too old and slow for online play though :nono:

I keep thinking I'm too old, but then I take a break and get back into it and am on fire again. Was dominating the leaderboard on BF1 Friday night. I even went Hacksaw Ridge in a few rounds (no killing, just reviving, healing, and spotting) and still featured in the top.

My problem is that I always try to get in with my son and his friends. A bunch of teenagers with nothing but free time, I can't hang with that.

I'm much better suited for a game of PUBG where I can find a nice quiet bathroom and sit on the toilet for half an hour. That's much more my speed.

Going back to Until Dawn...

I can't play it, so I just watch playthroughs on youtube. :tongue:

Why can you not play it?

Yeah, I do this with games I want to know what happens but, don't realistically think I'll ever get round to playing. I find it quite relaxing.

I presume Spinny has no PS4.

It's a bit of an odd one to watch because of all the different choices. How do you decide which playthrough to watch?

Yah! No PS4. Plus it's scary and I'm really bad with horror games. Horror movies, hell yeah. But horror games put you in there. I haven't even finished Detention because it got scary. :whine:

I like people to live, so I just watch the playthroughs that tell me no one will die. And then I watch clip videos showing me every death so I get it all in one onslaught. I like Chris. No harm should come to Chris.

I hope I like Chris, otherwise its going to be tough complying with this directive as I play through the game.

He has glasses. You wouldn't brutally murder a guy with glasses, would you?

And now you discretely (and disingenuously) switch the topic from "you can't tell the difference" to "is it worth it ?", because you were wrong the first time and you absolutely want to be right. From one of your links :

While you might think we are 1080p stalwarts thanks to the above section, you should make no mistake: gaming on a 4K monitor is outstanding. If you switch over, you'll see how great the color quality and depth is right away.

Monitors running at a 4K resolution have 4 times the pixel count as a similarly sized 1080p monitor. This means you will have better overall clarity and image quality.

I wouldn't. No.
But, I can't promise I'll be able to stop others from doing so.

Okay, but I just want you to understand...there is handsomeness involved.

Nice piece of cherry picking of course. There are more than enough negative comments so why quote the one or two positive ones.

Of course once again the comprehension problem but never mind. Did you read the negative comments? Understand them? I dont think so.
