TV Review No. 25 Marvel: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: The Team (S3, Ep 17)
Strong Points:
Secret Warriors are back!
Fitzsimmons!
Twists and turns
Malick [redacted]
Good acting for the most part
Weak Points:
Seemed a bit rushed
Some peoples reactions didn't quite add up
Shame to see another Inhuman go
The more Inhuman they are, the quicker it all breaks down
Killing was a bit extreme right?

Comment: New PC and Watch_Dogs
As anyone who follows the Twitter page should know, I recently got a new PC which should allow me to play games at a higher spec and from after 2013. And as anyone who has followed the blog for a bit should know, I brought Watch_Dogs when it first came out (Digital Deluxe Pre-Order version as well) and my laptop wasn't able to run it very well. At all.
So much so that I gave up with the game after around 9 hours, frustrated about the performance. Well now we're back, with ultra graphics and a smooth framerate and I must say, I'm actually enjoying the game! Maybe a video may even appear on the YouTube channel in the next coming weeks, who knows?
I've attached under the jump break my computer specs and a before and after shot of the graphics upgrade of Watch_Dogs if anyone want's to see.
P.S. Feel free to comment your PC builds and any game you thought you'd go back to and actually enjoyed it!

TV Review No. 23 Marvel: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: Spacetime (S3, Ep15)
Strong Points:
Awesome time mechanic
Explanation of the 4th dimension
Tense
Great choreographed (in the literal sense this time) action scenes
Great acting from all
Nice cinematography
Exoskeleton fun
Funny - 'You're off the team' line etc.
Weak Points:
Some storylines took a backseat
A lot to take in
Long flowing robes are a bit at ends with Hive/Dead Ward's image
Tad gruesome for the shows usual standards
Still more of Daisy 'I'm a God' Johnson

Film Review No. 6 Captain America: Civil War (12+)
Strong Points:
Great pace
Awesome action scenes
Slick inclusion of other superheroes/villains
Funny
Twists and turns
Great acting from all
Nice character and emotional development
Clever references to other characters, films and pop culture
Superb effects
Great music and sound
Some actual consequences in the film
The Vision wearing human clothes
Clever ways of allowing the different characters to fight each other
Spiderman!
Martin Freeman!
Stan Lee cameo!
Weak Points:
Early fight scenes seemed sped up?
As many answers as questions
Didn't finish - set up for other films
So much content - will need to watch multiple times!
Some characters storylines were rushed/thin on the ground
Bucky's metal arm shouldn't be able to block that many bullets
Some emotional depth may have been lost as the superheroes are needed for other films
Slight spoilers ahead:
