The Witcher 3 Delayed Again!!!!!!! GGGGRRRRR!


Posted on 12/11/2014 at 12:18 PM | Filed Under Blogs

Multiple delays isn't uncommon and in light of the disastrous releases of some recent games (AC: Unity/Rogue, Halo: Master Chief Collection), I think its a wake-up call for developers. If they can afford to take a hit financially and delay the release to fix as many bugs as possible, they should. In the recent press release from the studio, they specifiy that as the reason itself. 

I'll be interested in playing it, but I have tons of games to get to before it arrives. And 2015 is packed with so many promising titles.

Excellent article, sir!

Got Going With Gamefly Again


Posted on 11/21/2014 at 09:16 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I restarted my Gamefly membership for similar reasons. When I finish Wolfenstein: The New Order (hopefully this weekend), I'm gonna send it back in and hopefully get Shadow or Mordor. Too many games...

Work shenanigans; burrrrrrrr, it's cold and....GTA games, really, Avid?

It's worth it but it's nothing like 2001. Think of the sequel, 2010: The Year We Make Contact. It's more like that.

I don't see why people put so much stock in exclusives. I've read some tweets and listened to 2 video game podcast episodes where listener mail was read and a certain complain repeated itself: "PS4 doesn't have much in the way of exclusives this holiday season so now I'm feeling bad about buying one." Again, there's this ridiculous claim that there's nothing to play on the console. The only way that can happen is if you never use your PS4. 

I haven't played much on my PS4 - which I've owned for only 3 months - but the games I've bought so far (Destiny and Diablo 3) have provided enough content that I probably won't need to buy a lot. Not to mention the numerous PSN titles I got through the PS+ subscription. Besides, I bought a console to prepare myself for the gigantic year of 2015, when owning a PS4 (and to be fair, and Xbox One) will really matter (e.g., Batman: Arkham Knight, Bloodborne, Just Cause 3, Uncharted 4 - *fingers crossed*).

Quite enjoyable once you get the hang of it. I died quite a bit before I got used to the controls and how to work with the dual menus (for crafting). The art direction and sound design is memorable (I'm playing the Vita version, although I've got the PS4 version; headphones for this one is recommended).

Getting Started in the World of Jrpgs


Posted on 11/10/2014 at 10:53 AM | Filed Under Blogs

My starting point was the Phantasy Star series, in particular PS II, which was available on a Sega Genesis Collection for the PS2. I never beat the game and it's very dated and it requires an online faq but it lays some ground rules for how RPGs work, especially the concepts of turn-based combat and grinding (more unforgivably so).

The better game in the series is clearly PS IV but we all start somewhere.

Oh, I don't think the movie intentionally tried to keep the infidelity a secret. They looked a little too intimate in that beginning sequence. The real power of that whole subplot is what will happen when Sarah finds out.

Getting Ready For Dragon Age inquisition

I still need to play my copy of Origins. Don't know when I'll get to Inquisition (probably next year unless I can snag a rental copy) but I bet it'll be worth it.
