Yes, that basically sums it up! Strange pitch, but somehow it works. It's the way it changes as you level up your weaponry etc that I think keeps it interesting.


Impressed with the Superhexagon scores, don't think I've gotten above 20. Got it in a previous Humble Bundle for android, highly recommend signing up for those if you haven't already https://www.humblebundle.com/. Support charities and get great games, is the idea.

Which mission?


I think I'm a good half way through or more.


GTA3 on Android I had a cheater app which let me type in all the original cheats, so I cheated on a couple of missions (mainly slowing game play on particularly tricky ones). Vice City on IOS I don't have a cheater, so am plowing through it fair & square, so a couple of missions have made me swear!

it was a mission where you meet Lance in a multi-storey car park, drive uptown and then have to go up some steps and watch a deal go down before taking people out


My main problem with it was the PS2 controller was way too twitchy to be tragetting specific people from distance. It's fairly early in the game too, so that at the remote controlled chopper mission killed the game for me. Maybe I should try it again now it's possible to play on other platforms


Have you seen the trailers released for GTA V last week? If they combine lessons learned from teh great work on Red Dead Redemption, it could be something special. Something about cruising around in sunny parts of America that appeal much more than a claustrophobic NY

Not seen them, but will defo look out for them. Having played these old GTAs on handheld devises, I plan to plug the xbox back in and revisit IV.


Main gripe with the older games is that you have to start each mission right from the start if you fail, which often involves a long boring drive. Mid mission checkpoints would make it a lot better!

GTA brings back some pretty great memories, may have to invest in the Android version, especially if you can play with cheats...


Working my way through Assassin's Creed 3 (late to the party I know). In comparison to the last couple of games, it feels really rushed. Not enjoying as much as I'd hoped.

Game was about ?3 and then I downloaded the cheater app which may have cost a couple of quid. Clever people can "hack" the game and put the cheats in themselves, but I am not that teck savvy, so the cheater was great. It basically just brings up your device keyboard during game play so that you can enter the cheats like "gesundheit" to restore health, or "gunsgunsguns" for a full arsenal of weapons.

      When does a family run business become a chain?

      By Sue · Posted

      Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?

      As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed.

      ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?

      I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
