I'm off to buy a game which ive missed out on, cant decide between Tomb Raider, Mass Effect 3 or the Witcher 2. Leaning toward Tomb Raider.

Finished all 3.

Witcher 2, no contest. But if you've played the other Mass Effect games then you should finish the trilogy. Tomb Raider is really good as well but not quite as amazing.
 
The Division looks brilliant, definitely one to pick up. I also like the look of 'The Crew', think its something completely different within the Racing Genre, someones finally made a game thats different to NFS or Forza or Gran Turismo, i like it.
 
Nerd alert moment, bought F1 2012 for my PC the other day, and purchased a steering wheel with feet pads. So much fun, almost like a simulator. Anyone else got a wheel? I just bought a cheap Thrustmaster, but it's kept me very entertained this week.

I'd love to play it with a wheel and pedals but I'm just stuck with my pad, haha. Is it good?

Also I though Mass Effect 3 was poor compared to the other two...

After tinkering with the setup a bit, it's so much fun, better than the old arcade games you find at the fairs/cinemas complexes. I've got a 24" monitor and 5.1 to go with it, so it does feel like you're inside the car. Cockpit view only of course!

Sounds really immersive! I'd love to be able to do that. Probably be really bad at it that way, I'm used to playing controller only. How's your career going?

Actually it's quite bad getting into my real car after I've had a session, racing lines through town haha!

So far 6 races in for Toro Rosso, had an 18th, 23rd, 3rd, 1st, 1st, 10th. At Monaco now, getting tricky as hell. Catalunya was hard too, technically very difficult with those long sweeping corners. You've probably mastered it better than me!

I fear I'd be doing the same when I learn to drive, trying to find apex's on corners!

I had a career at Force India and smashed it and won the drivers championship, moved to McLaren and done the same so I started again at Marussia and upped the difficulty. Currently on the Monaco GP and I'm around 8th in the drivers I think.

Was quite surreal the first time, I'd been on the PC for a couple of hours straight then went down the road to the local store and was over the speed limit and breaking really late at give ways haha!

Nice one, I can't see me getting bored by this anytime soon, a nice change from the couple of MMOs I have on the go.

Haha! Be careful mate.

I like to play those little challenges against champions as well because they're all unpredictable really.
