Another year, another thousand or so games coming out.....which ones are on your wish list?

For me I have two on the radar and that's about it:

Sea of Thieves
State of Decay 2

The latter is locked in, especially with co-op game play - hoping to organise a crew that will join me and stream gameplay regularly, provided I can spare the time....haha

Sea of Thieves is subject to reviews etc upon release.

Wait and see what others post which may pique my interest.

For those that may have missed the post on Discord, here is the details for tomorrow nights social:

If we get 6 players

•  3v3 in standard, random teams each match
  

• I spectate/stream/commentate said matches above
  

• two lobbies of 2v2 (bit of a look in at the upcoming competition)
  

• I will once again spectate one lobby for a few matches, then a few in the other lobby
  

• 1 x 3v3 lobby, 1 x 2v2 lobby
  

• as per previous odd numbered options using 10 player set up
  

• 1 x 3v3 in standard, 1 x 3v3 in rumble (optional if all want to play standard
  

It's that time of year again where the Clipsal 500 is around the corner and now entering the livery unveiling season of the 2017 season.

First story of the new season is that HRT RBRA have picked up Matt Campbell to co-drive with SVG for the Pirtek Enduro cup. I think this has surprised everyone considering how well he drove for Nissan last season and was tipped to be a furure star at Nissan Motorsport. 

First of the livery unveiling will be this week with HRT RBRA up first.

Hey everyone!

Welcome back to TSG in 2017, we hope you all had a safe and happy new year and are now ready to dive back into proceedings!

We're starting 2017 off with an unofficial 2v2 tournament open to Xbox One and PC players. The aim here is to test the waters in cross-play environments surrounding communications when organising events through the use of our Discord server. This competition will also seek to test the viability of running a 2v2 competition over maintaining our previous 3v3 format. There a couple of changes I will outline below but it should be noted the change will only occur should we find the overall competition runs smoother as a 2v2 than it did in its 3v3 format.

For this tournament we won't be running a salary cap as it is not an official tournament but will be making an effort to organise balanced teams internally based off the registrations. Competition length will be determined by the number of registrations and the number of teams we're able to assemble from those registrations. Where possible we'll do our best to ensure players are grouped with players on the same platform though we must emphasise this may not be 100% possible.

The main details:
Format: 2v2 Round Robin with elimination finals
Number of teams: To be determined
Matchplay format: 2-weeks-on-1-week-off, week break before finals
Number of players per team: 2
Substitutes: None (the two players assigned to the team must play or postpone their game to the next off week or the finals break)

Players interested in "Captaincy" (basically picking your own team name) should indicate as such in their registration, captains will be added as needed on a first-come-first-served basis.

Registrations:
Scav3nger © - Second Degree Sharks
deadx89 -
Alsimo -
WorkingData5140 -
MRN3Drifter -
SillyOlMate -
Chaos 7h30ry -

From the team here at TSG, we'd like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a safe and enjoyable New Year! See you all in 2017!

Thread to start discussions on FM7, starting with this news that the Fanatec CEO is meeting with Turn 10 to discuss wheel support and improvements:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forza-motorspor...heel-users

"The news of a seventh entry in the Forza Motorsport franchise — expected to release within the next year — is unlikely to come as a surprise to anyone. What is surprising is the first mention of the team’s next project doesn’t come from Turn 10 itself, but has been outed by Fanatec CEO Thomas Jackermeier.

Thomas revealed on the Fanatec forum that he was due for a meeting with Turn 10 to discuss a number of things that could be done for the next title in the series. “If you would like to add something, please let me know,” Jackermeier posted, “Please tell me any wheel/pedal/shifter related issues you have in FM6 and let us know what new features you would like to see supported in FM7.”"

I don't suppose it's really a surprise it's coming, though I did think they may have taken the chance to add a third series to the franchise before the news of Scorpio came out. No doubt MSFT want FM7 to be a launch title for the Scorpio. Likely alongside Halo 6 which will likely also be revealed as a launch title for the Scorpio.

My sources tell me yesterday was z00lu's birthday, we completely missed it!

Happy Birthday z00lu, hope it was a good one!

Thought I would attempt a discussion here on what controller layouts everyone uses.
I think we had some discussion about this while playing the game a while back, talking about positioning of the aerial roll button (default being x).
I am using default layout but have moved the aerial roll button to the left trigger so that I can boost and barrel roll at the same time. So far so good

So December 7th we get the new map ARC starbase along with some cool improvements. See the link for more details:

Map preferences is a great addition, though I would like to see them go one step further with custom matches where you can select exactly what maps you want in a rotation when you don't want to just play on one map

Ok so most of you will know that I have now resigned from racing full time with CANZ, possibly appearing only for enduro rounds as a wild card. One reason is for me to spend more time on other things, and the other is to contribute more to content for TSG and CANZ next year.

Now with the wonderful update for spectator mode in Forza 6, we can now look at covering races on this title as well as Project Cars.

That said, I will be limiting myself to a certain number as I don't want to commit to something and not be able to deliver on it.

So with that, I am open to suggestions on which rounds would be best to cover, at this stage sticking with the main series of each title. Support series may get a look in but wait and see.

I realise that Pcars offers unique options that Forza doesn't, but I wonder if it is enough for us to continue with two titles......I guess we can just see how the support goes for both titles in 2017 and if things aren't going well for one of them, then things can change then....

Back to topic, post what you think would be good to see broadcast/produced as a replay
