Back in the day I knew a kid who would hide money in his video game carts. He had a torx screwdriver or whatever was needed to open up NES, SNES, N64 carts, and I guess what he'd do, is when he got some birthday money or anything else, he'd put it inside the games. I guess his brothers often stole from him, and even though they'd play his games, they never stole them. So he was always assured it'd be a safe option. I never did that, but I did once hide a note I got from a girl in the back of my PS2 expansion slot (for internet, or a HDD). I wasn't using the console then, but I put that note there to hide it. Honestly it's not a bad hiding spot for other things too. 😄

What are some Star Wars characters that you'd like to see get their own game? I think a Han Solo game would be cool, seeing his past and parts of his future. Maybe Finn, because he was never fleshed out in the newer movies and I could see him being a key character in the future. idk, what do you guys think? Who would you include to the mix?

Do you think that one day, VR headsets will get smaller? I suspect they will eventually, especially with advancements in tech. But I don't see it happening for quite a while. Anyway, how small do you think VR headsets will get? Could they one day be just glasses or even contact lenses?

I know no one here will know of this movie series, but wanted to share a game based off of it. It's nothing too special, but I felt it was a pretty unique gaming experience when it's this small free game. It doesn't look like much, but you can play it. It starts off as a video, but you can control the character. You can play the game here: https://corpsepile.itch.io/bad-ben In it, you control a character who walks around a haunted house. It's based off of a movie series called Bad Ben. Don't expect much from the movies, because they're all pretty much re-treads of the original, and are all made and starring the same dude. But honestly, they're funny in a so good it's bad way. But, this is not necessarily about his movies, but about a fan made video game that was made for. And honestly, the game as annoying as it is to control, is kinda fun for what it is. I was genuinely surprised by it. On top of that, the guy from the movies does the voice over work. I'd honestly take a full length game.

What are some popular franchises that should do their own fighting games? I think Cartoon Network is making their own smash like fighting game, but I may be wrong on that. But A looney toons fighting game would be fun I think. But that may be a bit dated these days. What are your picks for a fighting game? What characters do you want to see included? What kind of skills and abilities do you think they should include?

I know there's money to be made with competitive gaming and esports, and was wondering if you know of anyone who was able to win big in esports/competitive gaming? Do you know anyone who's been able to retire from competitive gaming? I wish I had the skills to make it big in esports, because I would give it a try. Who is the richest esports/competitive gamer?

I am in need of cleaning my PC. It's mostly just dust related. I was going to get can of air, but one of my past computers had issues with the can of air for some reason. Are there any other methods for dealing with dust buildup? I am paranoid about cleaning it, because I don't want to cause any bit of damage. What's your method for cleaning?

What are your favorite Batman games? I still have fond memories of the original NES game, plus I love me the Arkham series, especially Asylum, and City. But Arkham Knight is pretty decent too. Sadly I didn't play a lot of the retro classics aside from the original NES game, but I know there are other good Batman games out there, just haven't played them all. What ones are your favorites and why?

Do you guys think that video games are becoming too cinematic? I feel that is the case. The reason I bring it up, is because of Hellblade 2. That trailer featuring the giant and sections where you could throw spears. The studio states that it's gameplay, but I think most of it was cinematic for the most part. Do you think that video games are too cinematic? Or are they just becoming more cinematic just because?

We've gotten a Venom movie, and a couple newer Spider-Man games, with one featuring Venom as a villain (the next one). I would love to see Venom get his own game though. I think it'd be great to play as Venom. If not, at least make Venom a playable character in the next Spider-Man game. Anyway, do you think Venom will get his own standalone game?

The team at Vodeo Games decided to start their own union, and I think it's about time. The gaming industry is full of abuse from big time companies, and honestly it's time that more developers and producers be able to unionize to better protect themselves. Now we just need to see other studios take the initiative and start their own unions.

The developers of the new Stalker 2, will support NFT options via their new Stalker Metaverse. The blockchain will allow gamers to own a part of the game. It'll give them access to unique items in game. As well, it sounds like some people who invest in these NFTs, will be able to become NPCs in game. One lucky person will become one of the metahumans in game, that you can face off against. Part of it sounds cool, but I still feel weirded out by NFTs yet. What do you guys think? Are all these NFT things popping up games turning you away from some games?

Ooh, this one looks like a lot of fun. It looks like a racing game with battle mechanics. Think Twisted Metal but your car can also turns into a boat and plane. So it's got a lot going for it. It's coming to Xbox One, Series S/X, PS4/PS5, & Nintendo Switch. Check the trailer below.

What are some of your favorite fighting styles in video games? I like anything that is easy to get invested in, so really any fighting style that works. But anything that revolves kungfu, MMA in general, pro wrestling, etc. What are some of your favorite fighting styles in games? Any in particular you are a pro at in real life?

I know right? I was thinking about doing it too. I should have started when I was a kid. It would have been fun to re-read my tastes as a kid and teen. Maybe I will get my future kids to do that. Could be fun to see their thoughts on some of the classics.

This is cool. I didn't know you could age in this game. Looks like you can age from 20-75. Not sure if you can get older, but that's what the video showcases below. I wish more games did this.

I did not see that coming, but honestly I'm so for it. Just hope they do the game justice and we don't get another story like GTA Trilogy remastered. It doesn't look like they show any footage for the remastered game, but it doesn't look to be a remake or reboot. I hope they don't ruin it.

If you could only take one or two games to the grave with you, or all the games you like, what games would you take with you and why? For me, I think it'd be the basics, Super Mario Bros. 3, Metal gear Solid 3, WWE Smackdown here comes the pain and so much more. What games would you take to your grave?

Do you like to keep a journal or diary discussing all the games you like to play? Along with your feelings on them and your views? I have never done this myself, but I bet there are people who actually do. Would you keep a journal of all the games you beat, and their reviews, ratings and other such things too?

It's nice to see an alternative to be honest. There are a lot of games out there that can easily help with anxiety and depression. But I do see a lot of people getting angry with some games, and in turn making their anger worse or stress even worse.

These are my current specs, at least from what I can find: my graphics card is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 SUPER yeah, I heard older cards can handle a lot, just gotta make sure the PC is in good working order. I was thinking about upgrading my old PC to put a graphics card, but idk how well it would have done. So instead I upgraded to a better PC. 🙂

Same here, I also check out Twitch from time to time. Do you ever check out any Twitch streams? A while back I was watching a lot of RDR2 vids on YouTube. Not sure why. I wasn't even playing it at the time, but it did kinda interest me in playing the game again, and I haven't played it in quite some time now. I might have to change that soon.

Nice, I'll check them out. iRacing sounds familiar, but I don't think I have ever tried it yet. Thanks for sharing! 🙂 Yeah, not a fan of racing in real life. I like some racing games, but was never too big into F1, Nascar or racing in general. But in game form I am into a lot more. I even enjoy some hunting games/sims.

Yeah I think that'd be a good idea too, especially with how many small and independent studios there are out there. I think some studios and companies do that anyway with bigger companies, but I can see it being a problem for them too. Amazon is not a company I 100% respect, they have made a lot of mistakes in recent years and it's hard to trust them, so I can see some studios not even wanting to work with them.

Yeah that's the sad truth. Sucks, because there's so many games that I'd love to see backwards compatible on the PS4/5. I just wish they could make it where the system just plays the game. They don't have to release it digitally. But of course, Sony would want to make cash on those games instead, so they'd either license them again or let them die out.
