I’ve never tracked how many games I’ve played in a year but I’m sure it’s a lot since I have access to most retail releases. I don’t think I’d recommend finishing the For Honor campaign, though I did. Nier didn’t do anything for me either but I only made it about a hour in; based on the love the game gets I hope it’s…

I’ve been researching video cards all week and the inflated prices are really bothersome. For my budget it’s either get the 1050 Ti or wait and hope the mid-range cards (1060 6GB/RX580 8GB) return to the MSRP but that could be a long wait if it even ever happens. My last upgrade was early 2011 so I’m still on a Radeon…

If I made a top 10 list it would be very different as I’ve not played a Switch and don’t have much interest in doing so. The only game on your list that I played is Horizon Zero Dawn. I play a lot of games myself but this was a year that I didn’t finish very many, maybe 18. Most years I’m in the 25-30 range with…

There was an update that added more difficulty options. I had already got the platinum trophy at that point but it’s supposed to allow players to level up the enemies from the locations visited early, or all areas I guess. I think that when you are level 40 (max level, though you can still keep getting skill points…

If you do decide to build I think selecting a video card will be the most difficult part of the process, more so than building the PC (unless you’ve got a big budget). I spent two hours yesterday just looking at video cards online. My last purchase was March 2011 and since I tend to be cheap I often buy tech that’s…

I own a variety of cards from these types of games from the ‘90s yet I’ve never played a single one. Some are based on things I like, such as Star Wars, but I’ve got Magic cards too. I don’t know why, I guess I just liked trading cards and wanted to play them but had nobody to play with :/ I did buy other trading…

I was level 27 when that first event popped up so I didn’t bother looking at it. Maybe I would have been there if I didn’t keep stopping to run through shorter games (CoD WWII, Battlefront II, Wolfenstein II...lots of IIs!). This past Sunday I finished the main campaign and am level 40, plus I’ve filled the XP bar a…

It is from the Lord of the Rings universe; it’s Middle-earth: Shadow of War.

Did you know you could pet her? I probably didn’t spend enough time wandering around the sub as I didn’t realize that until I finished the game and stumbled upon her lying on a table in the cantina.

Sniper Elite 4 is set in Italy and you do work a bit with the Mafia, much to the chagrin of the protagonist. I don’t recall if the 442nd is in it or too much else. It’s mostly a one man army type of game even though NPC allies run around you at times. Here’s the game’s official website description if you’re interested:

I’m level 20 now and of the suggested abilities I’ve actually only taken the XP boosts and chain assassination. I don’t have any of the extra weapon slots but as long as I’m fighting equal or lower level enemies it doesn’t seem necessary to swap weapons, at least not on normal difficulty. That said, I didn’t realize…

I read this article every time it is posted as one day I hope to visit but who knows when or if that will happen. If I do visit one thing I plan on doing is attending a baseball game. I’ll do my research if visiting is ever close to being a reality because at this time I don’t know how many teams they have or what…

I believe this is a different game than the one in development at EA’s Motive Studios, isn’t it? EA Motive is the studio that is led by Jade Raymond so I think EA had, or still has, two action/adventure Star Wars games in the works. It’s possible I’m confused as well though. Also, it looks like Hennig is at Visceral…

The Twitter user might be trying to laugh like the Joker since the post is related to Batman. It’s not funny but that’s all I can think of.

There was news late yesterday that the PC version will need more time but they didn’t say how much.

Yeah, it is slow to get those courses; at this point I’d really like to try them but still only have two of the five. Have you gone online at all? I don’t have a subscription but I can still enter the daily challenges. You can find gold coins laying around on the ground and win some rather easily. I cannot compete…

Your town will be full of weeds and they will not be fun to remove. At least that’s what happened to me on an older version of Animal Crossing and I’d bet they all do that. The weeds covered most of the grass and I think the only way to get rid of them is to pull out each weed, one at a time.

I don’t believe the ESRB even plays games or at least doesn’t have the staff to play many, and there are hundreds of digital PC and console releases every week (Android games get rated too but I think that’s a completely different process). It was my understanding that for retail games publishers submit video footage…

I just finished that area a couple hours ago and the whole time driving around I kept wondering if there was a way to get a compass on the screen. The characters must have a compass so why can’t I have one? I know the area isn’t huge but I had a bad habit of driving the opposite way I wanted to go. I can actually read…

I always found Advanced Dungeons & Dragons for the Intellivision to be scary. It can be intense, in large part due to the sound and being unable to see where paths lead. Hearing a serpent or a dragon breathing in the distance can be unsettling. You can shoot arrows down a path you’ve not fully uncovered to try and hit…
