I’d like to see an article like this with alternative email clients that can use my google email address. I’m not that worried about security issues, but I find gmail’s email handling and layout to be very poor. There are no tools to quickly deal with a lot of email messages, no way to easily mark or un-mark spam, and…

This was exactly my first thought. I’ve had my primary Gmail address since it was in beta and you had to be invited. I’ve got it tied to so many logins, websites, accounts, etc... it would take me days or weeks to track them all down and I’d still miss some.

I have used Gmail for over a decade, never had a hack, never a leak, never a lost email, never been down... this article really is for those wearing aluminum hats.  You won’t find a more secure, always available email platform on the planet end of story!  All these talks about security and privacy are just media…

So, how much of this game did you play? Because nearly everything you said here betrays a fundamental lack of understanding of things the game lays out obviously. For instance - the Cartel aren’t Bolivian - they’re a Mexican cartel, hence why they all speak with a Mexican accent.

Or the radio? It’s staffed by a guy the…

Just started playing this over the free weekend. I wad really surprised at how fun the game is and how solid the coop turned out to be.

Wildlands was easily the biggest surprise of 2017 for my friends and I. And yeah, that map is MASSIVE.

I think the next evolution for open world stealth games need to turn the idea on its head. Instead of being in a big area and sneaking up on pockets of clueless enemies, they should know you’re around and everyone on the map is out looking for you. Avoiding helicopters, teams of enemies out on patrols, spotlights,…

I didn’t expect Wildlands to be so good, then I got it on sale a few months ago and I love it. I’ve already completed the entire game and the DLC. I would say, I think Wildlands gets a bad rap for being a primarily multiplayer game, but I think it plays well as a single-player game and towards the end, the story…

Please just bring back Splinter Cell. Blacklist was a great game.

I actually finished the whole game and documented every mission, side quest, papyrus, arenas, tombs, and even hidden treasures on youtube. i love the whole game so much, i told myself that I would touch and unlock Giza last as my motivation to keep going. I made sure i didnt pass through the region, until I unlocked…

If you get the outfit with the lion helmet it will sound like he’s talking in a metal helmet. Such great attention to detail.

Elephants? I’m 47 hours into Origins and I haven’t seen an elephant. When do I get to fight an elephant?

I killed a couple of the Phylakes with smoke and mirrors (which I also nicked off of a Phylake who I killed while riding a horse). I shot them from afar while they were in pow-wows with people. It also gave me joy to hear them scream while on fire. I like to pick off people from afar in general. I’m a hot mess in a…

Between AC IV, Far Cry 4, The Division, Watch Dogs 2, and AC Origins, Ubisoft has owned the vast majority of my gaming life these last 4 years.

AC games have always been my gaming comfort food, and Origins is no different. I am beyond busy right now, but 20 to 40 minutes of this game right before bed is my jam.

I’m working on finishing all of the locations right now and wow, there is a LOT in this game.

Finished the story and a couple of the subsequent adventures and everything to do with the Infinite Forest really is the low-point of the DLC. The first few times you do it is your standard patrol zone fare but then you just keep going back and back and back. It’s not even particularly visually interesting since it’s…

I think the skill ceiling is more reachable for players which is why maybe some older school BF fans don’t care for the game but I feel like this represents a really great advance for the series as a whole.

Man this podcast bums me out. I just don’t really have the means to consume a podcast, but I always click these links thinking; “oh man this sounds like an interesting article!” Only to find out that nope; can’t read it, it’s a podcast.

Having played both, I think the biggest difference is the fanbase the games attract. The whole draw of the Soulsborne genre (as it has been dubbed) is that it does not hold your hand. Ever. So people pick up the game, and many get frustrated that they can’t get through the first area and they stop playing forever. …
