Not exactly a game in the sense of video game, but nonetheless. Are there people here who take Uno as seriously, and as hectic, as I do? Because if you love your Uno, and consider yourself a bit of a Uno nut, I have a scenario that played out that I want your professional opinion on:

2 Player uno game.
Player 1 has 2 cards remaining. Player 2 has 4 cards remaining.
Player 1 plays a +4, declares Uno.
Player 2 plays a +4, tells Player 1 to pick up 8.
Player 1 plays a +4, declares win.
Player 2 plays a +4, tells Player 1 to pick up 16.

Does Player 1 win, or does Player 1 pick up 16 and the game continues?

I know there are minor rules that change depending on which household you play in (like some houses don't build up +4s, some allow +2s on +4s, some allow pick-up/put-down, etc etc etc), but I feel like this above scenario applies to most house rules.

Feed Sepp Blatter’s greed in hilarious game
Yummy, yummy in my tummy

By Simon Bourke - Jun 5, 2015 0
SHARE Facebook Twitter
tweet

You can barely turn on the TV without hearing about the latest scandals to engulf FIFA, football’s governing body. And one man finds himself at the centre of it all. But while Sepp Blatter has relinquished his role as FIFA’s president, his reputation is forever tarnished. So much so, that a video game, depicting Blatter as a money-hungry, greedy guts, has been created for our enjoyment.

The game charges you with feeding the hungry Sepp – brilliantly lampooned as a large-headed, evil-laughing despot – with points awarded for cramming as much into his gob in the allotted time. However, Mr Blatter doesn’t eat everything thrown in his direction. He only likes the good things in life, ie; cash, champagne and gold-plated lobster. Any attempts to feed him pocket-change are quickly rebuffed.

Accompanying this display of vulgarity are some choice phrases, among them the predictable “money, money, money,” and, less so, “fussball money, groovy yeah.” The joke does wear thin after a couple of gos, but while it lasts, it is a hilarious send-up of one of sport’s most controversial figures. The person behind the game has not yet revealed themselves (wisely, perhaps), but they have put a smile on many a face this morning, my own included.

The Sepp Blatter game can be played HERE http://www.blattr.co.uk/ . Happy feeding!

I highly recommend it :lol: :lol:

Finally got around to playing The Last Of Us on PS4. Smashed out the entire main game + Left Behind DLC this long weekend.

My God, what an emotional rollercoaster. Can't remember playing a game that's made me want to cry as much as this :cry:

Genuinely can't decide which new gen controller feels better in my hands. Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

Fuuuuuck which console do I pick :-k

Can you guys give me a second opinion? Leaning towards the PS4, but while it's controller isn't bad (it's actually quite alright), it just doesn't have that snug feeling the 360 controller has.

For the first time, but certainly not the last, I began to believe that Arsenals moods and fortunes somehow reflected my own. - Hornby

Whatever your mates have really, I had an Xbox but swapped because of that reason and I found it boring on my own (even though I don't play online against my mates all that often, I just like being able to). Xbox is good for Ultimate team because lower prices and legends, PS4 on the other hand I feel is more of like a console for the casual gamer while the xbox is more hardcore.

Having both, unless you're a massive fan of Halo/Gears of War and Forza the PS4 is the better console.

Manufacturers; all the same stuff really, warranty is what sets brands apart.

Where to buy; PC Case Gear.

Can help you with a build if you want lad :)

360 controllers are perfect for FPS games.

Love it. I thought it would be lame but it's actually really fun, especially when you make a team with your mates.

I got NBA 2K16 in my PS4 bundle, but I'm selling it because I'm crap at it and I don't even like it anyway, so I can get GTA V for the PS4 .

It's a massive shame that Rockstar aren't working on any single player DLC, but GTA Online is making them too much money to even think about those who don't have mates to play online with and actually prefer single player.

Just sent you my PSN ID.

Will be getting GTA V soon m80

Also, if you don't have Stick Shift, get it. It's free and you get to wank off a car.
