X-Com 2 is out, and it's pretty good, but be aware that you can not play the muiltiplayer between different editions.

So if you buy the standard edition and your freind has the Deluxe or bought DLC, you are unable to play together.

This I feel is an unnaceptable restriction, and could have been solved fairly simply by the developers disabling DLC for the purposes of playing against those that don't have it.

I did submit a support ticket to 2k but their reply was that it was as intended.

So, just a heads up in case anyone is considering buying to play with freinds.

I never normally post, but am really rather enjoying Starpoint Gemini 2

It's on sale with DWG until Monday evening, think I paid about $25 for it, and have really enjoyed it so far!

To me, it feels like a more accessible Elite Dangerous.

A bit like a space version of Sid Meier's Pirates. You can attack and capture enemy ships, trade goods, mine asteroids.

The good:

• Fairly large world to explore
• Ship battles are fun
• Lots of different ships to encounter/pilot

The bad:

• Freezes momentarily (at least for me) when moving into a different sector
• Clunky menus (when you pick your first ship you don't even get to see stats - hint: pick "Taurus")
• The view can be frustrsting in combat a

I thought I'd be outgoing and see if I can meet some new people.

I've got quite a lot of time on my hands currently, trying to stay busy but I'm in between jobs and losing momentum somewhat. I'm not looking to unload on anyone, I'd just like more people to chat to.

I invite you to have a look at my blog: http://www.timtimmington.co.uk/

That will probably give you an idea of if you'd like to talk to me or not.

I've got two ladies watches with the following movement:

Both watches are made by Rotary and in need of repair, if I can find out what movement it is I may be able to replace them like for like, but there's no identifying marks and they don't match any of the movements in my cousin's catalogue.

Diameter is just under 24mm.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I deal in/collect/repair TAG Heuers, I do repairs up to and including movement swaps, I haven't the expertise to mess about with the insides of movements, and replacement movements are cost effective enough.

However, a very dear friend of has always wanted a vintage watch, a pretty cocktail watch of sorts.

She saw this one, and as the dealer had a few other watches I was interested in for spares, I did a deal.

I have little knowledge when it comes to vintage ladies watches, and I've almost certainly overpaid, but I know she likes this one, so if I can get it working it will make the perfect christmas present. This may be a big if!

Just thought I'd share my Frédérique Constant collection.

The one on the right I've posted before, beautifully finished and with an ETA 2824-2 movement.

In the middle is a dual time, which is a 2892 with an add on module. My favourite dress watch.

On the left is a gold plated pocket watch with an ETA UNITAS 6497. They don't seem to produce these anymore, which is a shame as I'd like one in silver.

Hi,

My friend had a Japanese "Psyduck" card (her favourite pokemon) and someone tore it up and smoked it during a party.

I'd like to get her a replacement card for christmas but I'm having sone difficulty finding one.

Is there anywhere I should be looking other than eBay? I'm in UK by the way.

Regards,

Tim
