Don't have Civ VI yet, but i must have listened to the theme Sogno di Volare at least a dozen times so far. It's such a beautiful and epic song. It also compliments Baba Yetu nicely which feels more about past accomplishments while this new one is about all the possibilities of the future. I look forward to hearing it

Oh to live in the ol frontier and shape the world with your drunken hatred.

So it looks like they removed the touch screen this time, which would make sense since it increased the cost of production for the wii u by a ridiculous amount and it didn't pay off as much as they hoped. I would miss it, especially in games that require you to manage your inventory and items a lot. I'll probably

Even the logo looks like two people 69ing.

The NX is being revealed in 10 minutes and there isn't even a newswire about it. To be fair the announcement kind of came out of nowhere but i was hoping for one last burst of wild speculation.

Living in Buffalo Territory i'm seeing so many people talking about the Bills putting unpatriotic shithead Kaepernick in his place. It's really obnoxious and i hope it ends up being a blowout against Buffalo.

Dang, I thought i was being extra careful to try to catch everything and there are still a lot of small details i missed. Great work.

Speaking of Life is Strange obsession, I recently replayed the game (over a couple of weeks instead of a few days though) using screenshot mod and i took i ridiculous amount of screenshots. I'm working on making imgur albums for each episode though i'm editing it a little bit at a time so it will probably be a long

I have a friend (and my only friend who still plays and would care enough for shiny things to grind for lootboxes) who both events got the best skins in is first couple of boxes and then is pretty much done with the event leaving me to grind by my lonesome. Meanwhile 4 levels in and the only noticeable thing i got was

The Crew. Still a decent open world driving game with a MASSIVE world that is a treat to drive around. Still a hellish grind and it's becoming harder to separate the two.

If you buy a digital game code for the xbox version you can activate it on Windows 10 so that's probably going to be the cheapest way to get it. I'm planning on waiting to get it on black friday weekend on a sale, hopefully by then a lot of the pc issues are ironed out and a demo would've been released so i could see

The Crew fits that and right now it's free via club ubisoft. It's worth checking out at least as it nails the map and exploration bits (it's an interpretation of the US and you can drive from coast to coast with some fairly detailed cities). It's also very grindy, has a lot of cars you can buy with real money/season

I was hoping for a more direct sequel to Pacman: CE which was more traditional pacman without the ghost train but with also a lot of more modern twists like the evolving levels, pellet combo multiplier, and a time limit. While I really enjoyed the train, eventually it became more of memorizing the optimal path and the

No Refunds

Everything You Wanted to Know About Sex has a good Gene Wilder segment that is worth watching (What is Sodomy). The film itself is a bunch of self contained segments, mostly standard Woody Allen slapstick many hit and miss. At the very least it is well worth checking that one scene just for one of his stranger roles

I'm replaying Life is Strange for the fist time since i beat it. I'm using a photo mod so i'm taking my time and taking lots of screenshots. It's definitely highly diminished after knowing everything that happens and some of the flaws are more apparent but i still think it's overall a good if deeply flawed game that

I tried the Crew, and it seems to be mildly enjoyable but certainly has all the trademarks of an ubisoft game which means grinding/side missions every step of the way and a really stupid story it tries to shove down your throat. I dig the idea of driving around the country though and the game is apparently massive

I think the point of the Douche and Turd was that a fair number of people who go into politics are generally awful and you need to be used to choosing someone who you probably wouldn't like overall but who would serve your interests better in the end. It's a cynical view, but i don't think it's quite there at "just as

How long would you consider the shaky start? I'm at empire day and so far it's mostly been alright. Doesn't reach the lows of early Clone Wars at least but at the same time it also seems to be much more bland overall.
