Sounds way too long for that type of game, more like God of Bore, amirite?

I just cannot get interested in the new God of War game at all. I really enjoyed 1, 2, and 3 but just kind of went through the motions in Acension. I think that I’m just done with this franchise now.

Why play Shenmue 3 when you can look at this new character instead?

The singer of the bands Nevermore and Sanctuary, Warrel Dane, just died today of a heart attack in Brazil. Terrible news. He was one of the best frontmen in Hard Rock since the early 90's. Around 50 years old.

Yeah, major franchise fatigue on this one, they peaked at 2. But on the other hand they've switched it up with this one. I am fond of what some are calling "Dad of War".

So much DLC to play.

RE7 Not a Hero was fantastic!!!! For an hour of game they packed so many different situations, it was very well designed. Great final boss, felt like a proper tyrant boss battle. We had self destruct sequences, a new lab, it was like a tiny RE game.


As for the combat mechanics, it's first person so I feel it's limited. For sure a step back from the TPS stuff but overall it felt much better than RE7 combat. Some of the rooms were very basic kill rooms, absolutely no care was put into level design and how that changes the flow of a battle. You lose the inventory management and more tense game that RE7 is to a mode with lots of combat that's clearly not as good mechanically as past TPSs. So it can feel uneven, but I feel the amount of varied situations and sequences in such a small amount of time really helps it out. I didn't have time to really dwell on the combat system where every 5 minutes I'm in a whole new situation.

It was nice to be Chris again, even if it didn't look anything like Chris.

Zelda DLC was good, just more of the same though. The final new beast was very good, many of the shrines had great puzzles, the final boss was easily the best in the game. But it didn't solve any issues I had with the game, that was not a real dungeon.

How would any DLC fix your zelda issues, given that they come from the actual game design?

Splatoon 2s Clamblitz update stopped me playing it while it downloaded so I played Xeno 2. Got lost in Xenoblade 2 for about 2 hrs. The onscreen direction indicator is a bit useless when you are dealing with multi levelled enviroments, littered with massively overpowered beasts. Great game though, love the music and art direction. I started smiling just wandering about town watching a blacksmith. Also love running around on a giant White tiger.

Tried Splatoon 2 Clamblitz, very fun new mode, kinda like basketball, you have to collection enough clams, kinda like Mario Kart coin mode, then run up to the enemy basket and throw them in there. The rules are a little unbalanced though because the team in the lead is then given a special recharge that is faster than the losing team. That's the wrong way round, just powering up people who don't need it and punishing the other team when they need a hand up.
