Nintendo Switch players can grab £1.80 action game bundle worth £54 – it includes ‘must-have’ horror & Warhammer titles

The Action Games Bundle, available on Nintendo’s eShop, has had its price tag slashed by 96 per cent.

The bundle includes Syndrome, Deflector, and Warhammer 40,000: Dakka Squadron for just £1.79.

But it’s worth noting that this deal ends at midnight on 8 November.

Syndrome, a game worth £19.99 on its own, has been described by one player on Metacritic as a “must-have for the horror enthusiast”.

“You’ve got the usual *something gone wrong* here, and you pick up right after the chaos starts,” they add.

“There are disgusting enemies and gruesome dead bodies and backstories that can be read (some worse than the visuals), and a few twists here and there that might get you off guard.

“While not completely original, the game is solid and fun.”

Another gamer added that the title is “creepy” – perfect for a spooky weekend.

It also includes combat which they noted was a “refreshing feature in this genre”.

Syndrome is a PEGI 18 rated game, however, which brings the age rating of the entire bundle up.

Deflector, while rated PEGI 7, is a self-described “hack and slash” game.

It’s usually £20 on Nintendo’s eShop, but is currently reduced to £1.79 on its own.

Warhammer 40,000: Dakka Squadron is an aerial shooter which Nintendo usually sells for £17.99 outside of the bundle.

The title has won mixed reviews for repetitive gameplay, but funny characters and tabletop lore appear to have won gamers hearts.

“I love the humorous writing and lively characters, which make the experience even more enjoyable,” one player wrote in a Steam review.

“Whether you’re dogfighting or completing objectives, the fast-paced gameplay keeps you on your toes. Overall, it’s an easy recommend!”

I cheated on my girlfriend with her MUM – it started when she sent nudes & invited herself over, the sex is dream-like

A MAN has revealed that he cheated on his girlfriend with her mother. 

The young man confessed that things all started when his girlfriend’s mum invited herself round to his home.

But things quickly progressed into naughty text messages and even lingerie snaps, which then ended with a steamy ‘dream-like’ sex session.

Keen to share his story, the anonymous man took to social media to reveal all, leaving many open-mouthed. 

Posting on Reddit, on the r/confession thread, the man wrote under the username @RedKlot and titled his post ‘I Slept with my Girlfriend’s Mother’.

He then explained: “I’ve always wanted to talk about this. Here’s my confession.

“A couple of years ago, I cheated on my girlfriend with her mother.

“We were young. I was 21 and she was 18. We met and started dating around three years before this happened. 

“My girlfriend at the time was very cute, very kind, and very undeserving of being cheated on, especially by her mother. But it happened all the same.

“I never thought I would ever be the one to cheat. I’ve seen the TV show cheaters in my youth and thought “how the hell could anyone cheat on someone like that.” Little did I know that I would become what I mocked.”

The man revealed how things initially started, as he shared: “The seeds were planted in a car ride home with my girlfriend, her mother, and myself. 

“I’m not sure how it started but the question came up of who I thought the most beautiful girl in the world was. Of course, I say my beautiful girlfriend, and think that’s the end of it. 

“Little did I realise that I had upset her mother by this comment. So much so she had texted me later that same day saying that she had been hurt by what I said in the car. 

“I was shocked. I wondered what I could have said that could have hurt her. She goes on to inform me that she wants to be appreciated as a woman and when I said her daughter was so beautiful she felt jealous and goes on to say that every woman wants to feel beautiful. 

“I am trying to agree with her and talk with her as I felt as she might affect my seeing of my girlfriend if she were to be mad at me. They were very close and I didn’t want anyone being mad or upset with anyone else.

“She comes to agree it wasn’t a jab at her being ugly or anything. Quite the opposite. 

“I told her she was a beautiful woman at her age. I also told her she looked way better than many of the women around her age.”

Which generation is having the most sex?

A new report has lifted the lid on bedroom antics.

The research, conducted by experts at Kinsey Institute at Indiana University, revealed the average number of times people of different generations have sex per month.

  • Gen Z – three times a month
  • Millennials – five times a month
  • Gen X – five times a month
  • Boomers – three times a month

Whilst the young man thought his comments were innocent, it prompted his girlfriend’s mum to open up on her feelings for him.

He continued: “My comments had pure intentions but I can see looking back where things start to turn. 

“She was very happy with my comments about her. So much so that she reveals that her and her daughter have the same taste in men and she had thought I was cute ever since she brought me home. 

“This of course gets my heart beating and we continue to text each other for a number of days. What was originally just us making sure everything was okay became truthful conversation about ourselves.”

Over a number of texts she sends me a photo of herself in the lingerie

Not only this, but things then progressed into flirty texts and even underwear snaps, as he claimed: “Before long things escalated as she told me her husband doesn’t acknowledge her the same way she is used to and it’s tearing her up inside. This is where things start to get crazy with the texts. 

“She tells me they’ve tried every position in the “book” and even wore lingerie to spice up the bedroom to no avail. 

“Of course this peaks my honey young mind and over a number of texts she sends me a photo of herself in the lingerie. 

“Even at this point I was blissfully unaware of what we were stepping into.”

Things then went even further, when his girlfriend’s mum invited herself to his home.

The man admitted: “Things came to a climax when we finally crossed the line. I was at home with no one else around for the rest of the weekend and I had asked my girlfriend if she would like to come over that night. 

“She really wanted to but ultimately decided against it. I was fine with her not being over but unbeknownst to me, she was talking to her mother about how I was alone and maybe this is where she got the idea but she texted me later that night asking if she could come over for a visit and I accepted.

“I asked if my girlfriend would be joining as well and she said it was just her. This made my heart race. I wasn’t sure why but I was getting excited.

“Before I knew it, she was over and things were about to get crazy. I brought her in, we made a B-line for the bed and sat at the foot of it and we turned to each other looking deep into each other’s eyes.

“I’m fuzzy on who started but someone went in for a kiss and that turned into a make out session. This of course led to us beginning to take off our clothes. 

“She was very nervous and asked if we could turn off the lights. I agreed and after the lights got shut off we proceeded to touch our bodies.”

The man claimed that the pair then had a “dream-like sex session” with “no condoms in sight.”

He confessed that the sex session “wasn’t planned” and left him with mixed emotions, as he explained: “I maybe shouldn’t have done this but after we cleaned up I almost completely kicked her out due to me and my lack of knowing how to deal with this.

You dirty dog!

Reddit user

“I regretfully should have been there for her, given where we ended up. I just couldn’t think about anything except me ruining my relationship with an amazing girl, with her mother no less.

“After this we spoke a good number of times. Got things straightened out and decided it would be best to come clean to everyone. We did so.”

After admitting what they had done to others, the man wrote: “It was tough. We didn’t know what would happen.

“Fast forward through countless hard times and many days of dedication and hard work and respect gained, we ended up maintaining a healthy relationship for a number of years after until they eventually moved away from me and we broke up that way.

“This is my tale. Thanks for reading. I can go into greater detail for those who wish. Learn from my mistakes. Results definitely vary.” 

Reddit users react

Reddit users were left open-mouthed at the man’s story and quickly flocked to the comments to share their thoughts. 

One person said: “Oh my god I can’t believe you guys came clean about it.” 

Another added: “You dirty dog!” 

Meanwhile, a third asked: “So she let her mother visit you alone without raising an eyebrow?”

To this, the Reddit poster confirmed: “I later found out she had told her family she had to run an errand. 

“She was always running a tight ship at the house so she was the one who’d usually catch something like this happening but since she was involved no one knew.”

  • While their clothes offer the “latest trends”, they “don’t use expensive hangers, tags or labels”.

Amazon shoppers rave over £7 buy that prevents condensation – take an extra step to stop mould too

IF you’re constantly waking up to layers of condensation on your windows, Amazon might have the answer.

Homeowners can prevent mould forming on their damp walls with this budget buy.

Amazon shoppers can pick up condensation sealant strips for their windows for just £7[/caption]

Condensation tends to form on your windows when moist air comes into contact with the cold glass.

If left to set in, condensation can contribute to the growth of mould around your windows.

You can prevent this by sufficiently sealing the areas around your windows.

The Condensation Strip Sealant Tape is currently available for just £7.16 from Amazon.

They are designed to absorb moisture in the air, preventing droplets from forming on windows.

The cloud-pattern can also add a splash of colour to your windows and room.

According to manufacturers, the strips of tape are a “good helper for condensation.”

The sealant tape is designed to be used anywhere in the home, including on windows, wall corners, cooktops, and sinks.

Bathroom sealant strip are also available for kitchens, bathrooms, toilets.

They are suitable for absorbing water and keeping your countertops dry.

One shopper offered an additional tip to help the tape last even longer.

“In the morning, make sure you open your windows to allow air in to dry the strips otherwise they can sit a bit soggy,” she explained.

Other impressed shoppers shared their thoughts on the tape in the review section.

“The window in my daughter’s room is always full of condensation even with the dehumidifier on over night, making some black mould all around the window,” shared another customer.

“[I] cleaned the window, added the strip with no issue whatsoever, and I have to admit it makes a massive difference!

What is condensation?

Condensation is water droplets that form on a window when moist air comes into contact with a cold surface.

Condensation occurs when: 

Air cools

Warmer air can hold more moisture than cooler air. When moist air touches a cold surface, like a window, the water vapour in the air turns into liquid water droplets. 

Windows are colder than walls

Windows are often colder than insulated walls, so condensation is more likely to occur on them.

Windows are poorly insulated

Poorly insulated windows can lead to condensation, especially if they are made of aluminium, which conducts heat quickly.  If left untreated, it can lead to mould and other serious problems. 

“You would have just a small amount of condensation that will dry quick. Will definitely get some more!”

“I wasn’t sure what to expect. These work really well, really soak the condensation up,” agreed a third person.

“Didn’t know if this would work on the windows but I must say I think it’s really helping,” said another shopper.

“First day or two, not a lot [and] from then on no more condensation on the windows.”

“Bought [some] for my mum who has single glazing in [an] old building. Works well for small pane windows. Stick near top for best results,” suggested one buyer.

Iwobi’s fellow footballers Chuba Akpom and Medy Elito also featured on “Don’t Shoot”.

The former Arsenal midfielder’s second track is described as “a celebration of his African roots with a blend of Afro–Swing mixed with Rap”.

For the song, Iwobi collaborated with pal SPKS and MBrown.

The Nigeria international has described music as an ideal outlet for him off the pitch.

He said: “Music has always been a passion of mine, and a way for me to express myself away from football, music is a great tool and I’ve always used it as a productive way to share how I feel.

“Historically no Premier League player has brought out music with their name and face attached to it, but I like to be different and make a difference.

“Growing up in an area of London that is challenging for some people, I know how hard it can be and I’m grateful to have a
platform to try and make a difference.

“I don’t want young people to feel they have to fit in just one box. I want them to be encouraged to achieve their dreams, to put their focus into positive things.

“Creating music doesn’t take anything away from my football, it actually helps me switch off.

“I will always work hard and try to improve in my sport, but this is a good use of my spare time.”

Fans on social media have been loving Iwobi’s second release.

One wrote: “Great retirement plan. And it’s not nonsense.”

While a second gushed: “Ok Iwobi this is a vibe. Permission to help u push it.”

A third gushed: “This is a solid jam.”

And another added: “Banger off and on the pitch!!!”

Iwobi has been in good form for Fulham this season.

Last time out he scored on his return to Everton as the Cottagers earned a 1-1 draw.

Marco Silva‘s side will return to action on Monday night when they host Brentford in a West London derby.
