    Been playing Sleeping Dogs (Definitive Edition) on PC. I played the game years ago on the Xbox 360 but wanted to try it again.

    Already completed the main story, rushed through it quite quickly as I was really enjoying it. Much nicer playing the game at 60fps now. Thought the combat was fun though it took me some time to get used to it. Definitely going to try and work my way through the side quests as well. I think that there are some seperate 'mini campaigns' in the definitive edition too.

    How do they send commands to it? Do they relay it to a satellite? I don't know anything about space.

    Is this because of Diablo mobile etc? I've heard that WoW is declining but didn't know if this was true or not.

    Can anyone explain why the WSJ has such a high price? Not bashing it or anything, just genuinely curious as to why they charge so much.

    Yeah I don't play much on it (not my sort of games), but it is a lovely little device. Nice to see it's getting a lot of attention from big developers.

    This sounds amazing to me. Not sure how it'll run but if it's on an iPad, I'm guessing they can get it running nicely on a Switch.

    I'll download UE4 now and have a poke around.

    Want to move into 3D development. Sure, Godot has a 3D engine. But I think it is in early alpha and not particularly well supported.
