40K 7th edition and a new army ???

This news caught me off guard a bit considering the fact that we've only been two years with 6th ed but then considering all the changes that have been made over the last few months from the revamped White Dwarf to the new look web site which I personally love it seems now that it was almost inevitable the question now is What are we getting for our starter box? I want to say that the unlikely ones are Nids, Orks and Chaos but Battle for Macragge was a decade ago. OMG I'm getting old... Anyway, Orks and Chaos are unlikely Nids are a maybe but what else is there: Demons would be cool as we've not seen them in a "game in a box," it's then a case of what god would be highlighted if not all of them (which in a small 500pt force would be tough and potentially dull) all I can say to that is praise Nurgle. There is also Necrons, Demons, Eldar and Dark Eldar, Tau (I doubt GW would include another Imperial army as this would be hard to justify).

7th edition is a bit different in a number of other ways most impressively for me is that It's not just one book any moor but three of the bastards. The first is the rules, the second is the fluff and back stories and the third is a rather impressive hobby section displaying some awesome photos and armies. What this means as a player is that you don't have to lug this fuck off massive tome around just the single rule book which is pretty awesome. I don't have a copy yet but as a the thing looks absoluitly spectacular I think I might have to. It might tempt me back into the gaming side of the hobby again as I haven't played a game in almost two years. What might also tempt me back in is the number of awesome new army re vamps there are, the one that caught my eye was the Imperial Guard or as they are now known Astra Millitarum.

Of course the first thing I'll be picking up is the Codex but after that, then what? You'll just have to fucking wait and see now won't you, you cheeky little turds.

Watch_Dogs Top 5

As a follow up to my last post in which I mentioned my interest in Watch_Dogs and will be collecting my copy tomorrow and to as a sneak peak for those of you who may have been living under a proverbial rock unless of course your name is Obito in which case you will have lived under a rock literally (too soon). Anyway I'm going to tell you the top 5 things I'm looking forward to in the game.

5- The challenge- so from what I've seen and heard so far this game isn't the easiest out there particularly when compared to other sand box games like GTA and Saints Row, while I have nothing against either game it's nice to see that there's some challenge to the game, I've seen people shot rather quickly. Note: COVER IS YOUR FRIEND.

4- Car chases- I'm not normally one for races even in massive games like GTA I'd rather run around and have fun on the way than drive but having seen the detail on the cars and the fun that can be had in police chases using Aiden's awesome hacking abilities.

3- Seamless online- So a massive part of the "Watch_Dogs experience" was how the online features were integrated with the single player aspects of the game as "contracts."

2- The living city- Everyone has a dark side, that is one of the games over riding messages and as such you can profile every citizen with your uber phone and everyone has something to say, some more than others.

1- AA 12- OMGTIFA. Maybe I'm just sad and don't play COD or Batlefield enough to know that the gun is in every game nowadays but I haven't seen it so meh. FULL AUTO SHOT GUN MOFO...

Now what?

So that massive mother of a project what now?

Watch Dogs... that is your answer. It's been out for a week nearly but I'm poor and could not afford to buy it on release as I had wanted and the fact that I had pre-ordered it at a store about 175 miles away from where I was currently staying.

Tomorrow however I (should) have money and as such I will be buying the Vigilante edition...

You lovely buggers should have the first part of a review within a week alongside some tips and tricks I've learnt along the way.
