Hope you feel better, dude. This is a great site, and we hope it continues to grow. I may not be on as much either, due to getting more job hours and another thing that I’ll mention in a separate post.

Well I’ve been somewhat busy but I will update here anyways.
I’ve got back into Overwatch recently which is amazing fun as always, especially with a few friends. The Blizzcon announcements were pretty good and I can’t wait to try out the next hero (Sombra) when she is done on the test realm!
I’ve also been playing Battlefield 1 quite a lot. Its…[Read more]

Sounds excellent. I’ve seen the trailers and heard some great things about it recently. I definitely wanna check it out when I can although sadly it will be in old fashioned 2D.

I was just about to make a thread saying the same thing. Been ill/busy with a load of work etc lately so not been around so much. I hope things are alright with you and hope that you start feeling better soon :)

Since the moment I started this site, a lot of people have checked the site out, quite a few have even contributed. I try to remind everyone that they owe me and this site nothing. Yet I am often left private messages on here, gamespot, reddit, twitter and facebook with apologies from users who regret not using the site more often. Sadly it is…[Read more]

For Mass Effect fans, November 7th is a worldwide holiday. Those celebrating N7 Day today surely will not be let down. As part of the celebration, Major Nelson took to his Twitter account to announce that Mass […]

Joel Castro started the topic Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare – First Impressions in the forum Shooting the Shit 8 years, 9 months ago
Because I’m smart, I rented this title instead of buying it. I move further into the campaign, and I see signs that things are looking up for the series in terms of storytelling. No, the setup is not something brand new. It’s pretty much a mishmash of Battlestar Galactica, Mass Effect, and a bit of Destiny. However, the pacing is incredible. It’s…[Read more]

stream over. Nobody was watching, so I ended it early.

That’s right. Starting in a few minutes on Twitch (Soulharvester45), I will be streaming the main campaign of Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare. Hope you all will join me as I tackle the campaign completely blind.

I think Marvel has found the secret sauce that prevents them from making a bad movie. In the same way Guardians of the Galaxy and Ant-Man were different than the other Marvel movies (one being a space adventure and the other a heist movie), Dr. Strange also goes in its own direction while still feeling like a superhero movie. You’ll get a sense…[Read more]

elheber replied to the topic So I Got 2 More Games in the forum Shooting the Shit 8 years, 9 months ago
I don’t love the Quantic Dream style of gameplay, but I loved Until Dawn to bits. The story was just superb, and I love the way it played with your expectations along with mashing several horror tropes. This is a game you want to go into completely blind.
I still want to try The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. I’ve also heard plenty of “it’s good but…[Read more]

I loved Gone Home, The Stanley Parable, Beyond Eyes, and to a certain extent I even liked Proteus, Qora and Home. I’d play The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, Firewatch, The Witness and The Beginner’s Guide without question. In fact, there aren’t many I wouldn’t try.
What I find unappealing about Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is the narrative…[Read more]

I’ve been playing quite a few “walking simulators” lately, and a few other indie type games. Here’s what I’ve experienced so far.
Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture – Incredible visuals, great story, STUNNING soundtrack, and I believe it’s one of the better examples of the interactive narrative genre.
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter – just getting…[Read more]

It gets better. Apparently, Twitch is now wanting to let users upload gaming videos permanently on the site. It’s in beta right now, but basically Twitch is trying to be Youtube’s competition in the gaming world in terms of video content, not just streaming.

Joel Castro started the topic So I Got 2 More Games in the forum Shooting the Shit 8 years, 10 months ago
One of them is The Vanishing of Ethan Carter, a horror-adventure-puzzle game that’s kinda like Lovecraft meets Gone Home in terms of gameplay style. You do solve puzzles in the game, so that adds a bit of a mechanical twist to everything. I’ve heard good things about it, so I’m hoping it doesn’t disappoint.
The other is a little title known as…[Read more]

I was the same way, until I played Ether One. That game made me feel a lot of sadness, especially since I lost a family member to dementia. Then I played Gone Home, and I realized just how much a simple story gains just from having at least some interaction. Hell, Journey was only walking and floating, but that game is absolutely breathtaking.…[Read more]

I have nothing against walking simulators per se. However, I need them to have some meat on the bone. I headed to bed so I don’t have time to elaborate right now, but I don’t see myself playing this game even for free.

As one of this month’s PSN Plus games, Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is now available for download. I played it since it downloaded, and I have a few thoughts.
– First off, I think it’s a good game overall. Critics like Jim Sterling and Zero Punctuation may have painted this game as boring and tired and uninspired, but personally I feel like…[Read more]
