The FTSE 100 is washed-up rubbish, right? Wrong!
The UK’s FTSE 100 has been a poor cousin of the US S&P 500 for many years. But while some global investors have given up on UK shares, I’ll keep buying.

VG247’s The Best Games Ever Podcast – Ep.45: The best game that’s rubbish after ten hours
Welcome to VG247’s Best Games Ever Podcast: Episode 44: The best game where you’d swap places with the main character.
Video games are very long-form pieces of entertainment, and as such, they have to work hard to hold our attention. Statistically, most single-player games are left unfinished by a staggering majority of the people who buy them, as much as 90% by some estimates. But is it any wonder, when a lot of games just get a bit naff after the first act? Once the New Game Novelty wears away, you’d better be introducing some huge plot twist, or engaging new mechanic, or something to switch things up and keep it interesting, otherwise people are going to go back to Skyrim.
There are some games that start off so well that it’s genuinely surprising when they go bad. Assassin’s Creed III is my usual go-to example of this: for the first 8-10 hours or so, which is an unfathomably long time for a prologue (that’s two Ben Hur’s and half a season of Curb), you play a suave sort-of Georgian James Bond character in the form of Haytham Kenway, and it rules. Then some stuff happens and you have to play his extremely less charismatic son for the rest of the game. It’s fine because you get to kill a lot of redcoats, but ugh. But what do our panel think is the best game that exemplifies this phenomenon? Which game, ultimately, has the best opening ten hours before it turns to sludge? To find out you’ll have to listen to VG247’s Best Games Ever Podcast: the only podcast called that. Handily, you can do so below, via Methods.

GTA Trilogy – Definitive Edition is rubbish on the Steam Deck, too
Now that the Rockstar-embarrassing, staccato-titled Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – Definitive Edition is out on Steam, this terrible trio of remasters has bailed out of Rockstar Store exclusivity and rolled into the speeding bumper of easy Steam Deck compatibility. I’ve spent this afternoon ambling around the redone GTA III, GTA: Vice City and GTA: San Andreas, in handheld form, to confirm what you probably already know: they’re all still a bit crap.
