I was actually looking at cameo the other day. There are a lot of video game voice actors on there. I was tempted to get a cameo as a gift for someone, but damn cam they be pricey.

They won't go under, they'll just hire people who are fine with their issues. I think that whole company needs a restructuring if anything. Get in a new CEO, new leaders etc. Ubisoft has made a lot of mistakes and blunders over the years, if they fix their problems, they could easily rebound. They have the money to do it. They just have to do it.

This article here: https://cogconnected.com/feature/5-times-video-games-went-too-far/ Discusses 5 times video games went a little too far. Examples like the "No Russian" mission in Modern Warfare 2, or the torture scene in GTA V. Those are just the couple entries on the list. What others made the cut? Well Custer's Revenge, Carmageddon, and Postal 3. Do you guys remember playing any of these games? I played GTA V, and Modern Warfare 2, but don't recall playing Carmageddon. I never played a Postal game, but always wanted to try them out.

With the recent rocky release of Battlefield 2042, it made me wonder if this is going to be an ongoing trend. As in, will the next Battlefield be a mess just like 2042? A mess in that it was a downgrade from previous titles. The Battlefield before 2042 wasn't all that great either. In fact no one really bothered with it, and it seems 2042 is dealing with much of the same, just at another level because of how limited 2042 was at release. Anyway, I think this is probably the last time these guys can fail like this. The future Battlefield has to improve on their mistakes and better themselves, otherwise I could see Battelfield going on a hiatus if they don't get their shit together.

I forgot that Steam does their own game of the year type of thing, but it's called the Steam Awards. You can find all the nominees at the link below. https://store.steampowered.com/steamawards/2021////// What games do you hope win the categories? I didn't play most of these games, but I did play Unpacking, and I hope it wins for the Sit back and relax award. 😄 But yeah, what you rooting for in here?

I know with Xbox you can have a custom made controller through their site, but I don't think PlayStation has something like that just yet. I'm sure there are third party sites where you can design your own PS controller, but do you think Sony will make their own service like Xbox has, to make your own PS controller? I would welcome them adding such a thing. Wouldn't you? Do you think PlayStation will adopt this idea?

Yeah, I heard a while back I think the Last of Us was in some major award category at a movie award show as well. I at least think that it was, I forget, or I could be confusing it for another game. But yeah, video games are starting to break out and show up in other awards shows. It's pretty cool stuff. 🙂

Oh noice! Thanks for sharing. I think I heard about this one a while back, but didn't see much else about it. I think I saw a lets play of it, but I forget. It looks like a pretty decent crime game, so I'll have to check it out for sure.

That's a fair assessment. I feel as if most esports players focus much of their life on the games they are good at. If anyone wants to be a pro gamer and join esports, they need to probably also practice daily. I don't think I could practice daily, especially the same game over and over.

I'd have to say the time my parents got my brother and I a PS1 for Christmas. My dad bought the console and a bunch of games from a work friend, must have gotten a good deal because we had like 20+ games that day. Just wrapped up, some unopened in the plastic. It's something I wish I could go back in time to revisit. It was so cool.

Sadly I don't have much gaming memorabilia. I have an Xbox hat, some small collectibles and posters. That's really about it though. I wouldn't mind getting one of those Jason figures that are based on the Friday the 13th NES game. But I also have some Mario figures, a couple amiibos and a few other things. But no big collectibles or anything yet.

Has there been any games made around Covid? I know there's been a fair share of mobile games, but I don't much care for the mobile side of things. Have there been any new games coming out that are about covid? I know the gaming industry likes to try random things, so I figure there are some who have made games about defeating covid. I doubt any of the games are any good. Did you play a game about covid this year?

This game looks interesting. It's essentially a story driven game about a band, and each episode I guess features their music. I think it's an interesting way to promote ones music. Do you guys think you'd play this one? It looks like it'll only be coming out for PS4 & PS5.

Has anyone here heard of this game? It looks to be coming out in the Summer of 2022. It's said to be a fighting game based on The Dungeon and Fighter franchise. I can't say I've heard of it, or played them, but the game looks pretty decent. Is this a buy for you?

What are some of your favorite RC Racing Games? I played a lot of the original RC Pro Am growing up. I also think I played a Micro Machines game as well, but idk if that qualifies as RC related. Either way, what are some of the best RC racing games out there? Cars, boats, planes etc. Any RC related racing game will count.

Has there ever been a video game that released literal viruses into gamers PCs? I swear I heard there was a couple PC games that accidentally tossed in viruses in their releases. Do you think any games caused real damage to people's PCs in the past because of it? I'm curious, because PC gaming back in the day was all over the place. I imagine a lot of bootleg games came out, plus indie games on top of it.

Well covid started up soon after and I just never bothered to go. As well I'm unsure as to what arcades they got. They have other games, like the basketball one, and a few others. Saw images inside and it looks good. I'm surprised it's still open, because I don't know if many people even go there.

Hmm, I had no idea. I suppose it wouldn't hurt to shut down at night going forward. It doesn't take too long to turn on anyway, so I could always just turn it on in the morning when I wake up. Easy peasy.

Ah okay, I'll just clean it manually. My keyboard is due for a deep cleaning anyway, and I already have my keycap puller so I'm ready to go. Just lazy about doing it lol.

And to think, these major big box stores could easily afford to lose some of their stock like this. What I think would be cool, is if stores like Wal-mart, took some of their stock and just gave it away during the holidays. I think that'd be a cool gesture by these massive stores. Also, maybe gift your employees with fun gifts, especially if they worked a long time there already.

Same, which is why I'm hoping for a sequel or a reboot if anything. I don't think I'd want a remaster or remake of the original games. Just give us something new please. You can remaster Gex later.

I believe it. We're leaving a major environmental footprint with tech in the world. And if we continue to have places with tons of servers, that's going to run up electricity like crazy. Servers are also known to put out a ton of heat, so who knows exactly how it's affecting the world as a whole. But yeah, I get it's not good. Hopefully they can figure out an alternative that wouldn't hurt the planet.

Are there any games where you can play as the President of the USA? I know there was a secret service game where you protect a president, but I don't know if any games exist where you play as the president himself. If not, I think it'd be fun to have a game where you're the president, and you have to fight or battle to protect yourself and your people. Would you play a game where you're the president?

Oh of course. Cheap doesn't mean bad. Sometimes it does, but not always. I am mainly asking for cheap peripherals that actually work good. With the PS4 controllers I can understand that. With the 360 and Xbox One/Series X/S their third party controllers are a bit better imo. At least with the PDP and PowerA brands of controllers. PDP is more cheap, but PowerA imo, has a good set of third party controllers. Yeah Razer is a brand I'd like to check out. A bit pricey for my taste, but I hear they are fairly decent. And the one you shared is pretty cheap, so I can't complain. They're around. I haven't noticed any price increased on third party controllers or peripherals yet, but it could happen I'm sure.

That's fair. I don't have the system yet myself. I may consider one of these skins, but I think the standard white case is just as fine. I also don't know what they are pricing these at. I have a feeling they're going to be pricey. Yeah it's not bad. But I can understand why some would want to make it all black. It would look pretty sleek in black.
