Remember back on the PS1 when they had stuff like that MTV music generstor game. I forget the title, but you could make beats and actual music. Though it was limited, I thought the idea was cool. So why is it that we don't see more music themed games on consoles and PC these days? You'd think they would make more music makers/generators these days. I could see it going over very well with gamers and people into music.

So I've been binging though the Bond series. I'm on Casino Royale. I've enjoyed it so far, although they are silly films. What do you think of them?

Holy shit! I was in the queue for the timed sales, and managed to snag one. I got the Horizon Forbidden West bundle because that was all that was left. But I don't care, I got one. Also I know nothing about the game, even though I'm going to have the both of them. So can anyone tell me about HFW? What kind of game is it? Either way, I GOT ONE!!!!

I nominate @Crazycrab for MOTM. His posts are always engaging, and he always posts something of value to the conversation at hand.

Honestly, it's kinda laggy and needs lots of setup among other things. We tried a pretty lightly modded setup for our server but the game was still a glitchy mess and is it resource intensive so I think I'll make the creators of this mod do some more work on it before we attempt to use it for a playthrough.

Mine are Baby Blues, Zits, Crabgrass, and I’ve recently gone back to reading Wallace the Brave.

True, but with Stadia Google just didn't care. It was also the like new prices they charged for their titles. We were expecting these older games to be lowered down in price, but they were full price. But I agree Netflix doesn't have a catalog that they can bank on. They'd need to invest in studios, and I don't think they have the money to do that at the moment. But we can hope.

As an update, he and Jorge Mendes (his agent) and Alex Ferguson have are all at Man United this morning to have some talks about this. Jorge Mendes and Ronaldo are still pushing for a transfer and the latest team mentioned is Atletico Madrid which their fans don't want him either so let's see how this goes.

I encountered a time in rdr2 where Dutch was talking to the whole camp, like giving a speech, and no one was watching him. No one was around actually, so I thought it was hilarious that he was doing a Dutch speech to no one lol.

I think game streaming is going to take off hugely at some point, but I don’t think it’s ever going to become the only option. The inherent problem of a lot of people not having fast enough internet or low data caps, especially in the UK and US, is a huge hurdle. Maybe in some hypothetical future where everyone has ultra-fast fibre broadband with unlimited data, but we’re a very very long way from that point, and in some places arguably moving in the opposite direction. What is happening here is Netflix are no seeing less growth because well, they have reached saturation and are seeing more competitors in their market. To keep the machine going they need the next big thing. Problem they will find is it can take literally years to produce games - they have zero chance of competing with the likes of Microsoft.

They should stick to the movies in my opinion. It would do them more harm than good should they decide to take on gaming projects. Jumping into uncharted waters would be very risky for them in my opinion.

The problem with creating a music making "game" is that it's going to be very hard to come up with a combination between videogame and software i'd say it's damn near impossible to have a mix of both, sure you could add an indept tutorial but it's still going to be software, offcourse you could always add a campaign of some sort but then you probably have to strip out features so anybody could "play" it. Say a company makes a "game" like this, one huge factor to consider is copyright infringement because you're damn right some clever bastards are going to find a way to share copyrighted music and it probably could infact turn into the next kazaa or napster just to name a few. It's doubtfull any company could handle the headache it would cause resulting in a couple of lawsuits here and there. The next question is who on earth would want to make music on a console, when you have literally hundreds of programs avaible on pc (even some for free) that would do a much better job then any "video game" ever could. Now to stick to the topic at hand i know off Xbox music mixer for the original xbox, i have a japanese copy that includes a dvd on how to use it but i'm not 100% sure if you can actually make music with it, since it's heavy reliant on online sharing between pc and xbox a lot of features are unusable these days. Others i can think but sadly i can't say much about them are Traxxpad and Beaterator for the sony psp i have both of them at my parents place maybe i should try em out sometime soon. I'm sure there are a couple on the nintendo ds aswell but i can't say for sure what they are called. I do know one game had a simple piano addon that you could hook up in the gba slot of your ds i think it was called easy piano. Had to google it because it's name eluded me but there is always Korg Gadget for the switch if you want to start music career which seems much more advanced then anything i've seen before on a console.

Those are some amazing suggestions, thank you so much. I'll have to do my own research before I decide what games or games to start with, but I'm spoiled for choice now thanks to you. I'll probably not bother with Darius Burst for now as that game is little bit expensive and more for bullet hell enthusiast, but the Cave games look cool (Especially Deathsmiles) and they all look fun to play. Once again, thank you. Great suggestions.

ALL HAIL THE MINIONS!!!!

Me as an adult.

Another sport I love is robot fighting. BattleBots is awesome. And while it loses in this fight, almost no one can beat Bronco. This is a rare occasion. And when you see the flips Hydra got on Bronco. That's a 250 pound robot getting flipped 20' in the air as if it was a soda can. Not an easy thing to do.
