  1. Well, when developers put in real life locations, it helps make it feel more realistic. Most games make up their own locations, but they are inspired by real life locations. If I ever were to make a game, I think I'd utilize my hometown as a location, just because I think it'd be cool to do. There are games that have real life locations, like L.A. Noire, Watch Dogs 1 and 2 I believe, and a few others. Games like GTA will be inspired by locations. Liberty City is New York, Vice City is Miami Florida and San Andreas is meant to be California. A lot of the locations in GTA titles mimic what real life locations in said areas look like.
  2. Are there any movies, tv shows or other forms of media that got their own video game, but there was really no point in making a game based on it? I remember there being many Mary Kate & Ashley games growing up. I imagine none of them were any good lol. Honestly, I never expected Shaq to get his own game when we got Shaq-Fu for the SNES back in the day. I don't think anyone was asking for it either lol. The fact that there was games based off of the show Home Improvement has always weirded me out lol. Oh and Michael Jackson's Moonwalker is another that comes to mind. But are there others that you find more weird and unbelievable in game form? I know the Three Stooges even got their own game back on the NES. Basically what I am asking is, do you know of any games that don't make sense because they are based off of something that isn't video game related? Does that make sense?
  3. Adult rated games doesn't mean there is sexual content or anything like that. It could refer to games that have some nudity, but also extreme violence and imagery. I think that Hatred was rated Adult only, and that was just about excessive violence. But otherwise, do most adult games even sell? I know Hatred was moderately popular, but I can't think of any other A rated games unless you count San Andreas when they found the hot coffee exploit. Other than that, I don't think adult rated games sell all too well.
  4. Gaming crossovers happen sometimes, but it's not as popular as you'd think. We got a few fighting games that have done crossovers, like the Marvel Vs Capcom, or Soul Calibur 2 when they added characters from Sony and Microsoft. I think Nintendo got Darth Vader of all characters, but I forget. Anyway, what gaming worlds would you like to see team up? I think it'd be cool to mix Saints Row with GTA. Probably wouldn't work these days with how GTA is more serious, but I think it could work now that Saints Row is getting a bit more serious with their upcoming game. Other than that, I'd love just about any crossover that makes sense for the material. Give me a Marvel Vs DC fighting game. I'd buy that.
  5. Weird that it's a year already since the last show. I remember tuning in to watch it last year, but wasn't there to see the awards, but the reveals. I'm sure there will be a lot of great reveals to come out of the show. But what are you hoping for the most? Hellblade 2 is one game I am psyched for, but I'd like to see a mention of GTA 6 at the least. But I doubt they will announce anything on the game awards. Other than that, I hope they show another trailer for the new God of War. But what other reveals are you hoping for? What games/devs/studios are you hoping to win? You can vote on your favorites here: https://thegameawards.com/
  6. I loved the first Hellblade game and can't wait for the sequel. It's been rumored that a trailer will debut at the upcoming video game awards, but haven't heard much else. I'm going to keep an eye on the show to catch this trailer. I hope there's more combat options in the sequel, because I felt like the combat could have used more combos and options. If they do that, I think we'll have another hit on our hands. You can watch the most recent trailer below. But I assume the Game Awards will have a new trailer to drop on the 9th. 🙂
  7. Sadly, when we get older, we tend to lose our skills to some extent. Do you ever find that your skills in video games are more lacking with each year you get older? Or do you think your skills stick around forever? I find that my patience with tougher video games, just isn't there anymore. If something is too challenging, I often give up if it's too tough. Which is why I'm starting to think my skills have gotten worse when it comes to video games. I find I'm slower with some games as well. Do you feel your skills will get worse when you get older?
  8. The Game Awards are going to be happening soon, and there was mention of Activision/Blizzard being part of the show to promo upcoming games. But backlash from fans and the gaming community have since changed that. Instead Activision and Blizzard will not be part of the show at all. They can still win awards though, but that's it. Geoff Keighley had to announce the fact that they wouldn't be a part of the show after the initial backlash. But it's sad that they even considered them for the show after the Bobby Kotick situation. Maybe this will revolve into Bobby Kotick finally being removed from power, so that these studios can start to grow and get better. I assume that Activision/Blizzard will be kicked out of events until they remove Bobby from CEO. I doubt they will do it though.

  9. For those wondering, the recent season of Fortnite just ended and we're heading into Chapter 3 season 1 next. In a new change, the map of Fortnite has literally flipped upside down, and now we're graced with a brand new map. But that's not all, as the new chapter deals have leaked showing what new additions the game will have. Epic Games accidentally released the new trailer in Poland, and you can watch what's to come below. https://streamable.com/3jtpmq The cool additions are that you can get Spider-Man through the battle pass, there are tornadoes, lightning that can strike the ground and possible players, a new sliding mechanic, and it looks like you can traverse like Spider-Man. That doesn't seem to be all though, as The Rock was revealed in the recent event, so he may be a skin in the battle pass. But yeah, some really fun additions if you're a fan of the game.
  10. Are there any games you remember but no one else seems to? It can be for good or bad games. I remember they made a game for that Pamela Anderson show that wasn't baywatch. She was like a special agent or something. I never bought it, but it's like I'm the only one who does remember lol. Other than that, there is a game called Largo Winch that I got for the ps1 as a kid and remember hating it. But no one I know has ever heard of it. It was like this stealth action game trying to be metal gear solid or something. It was awful and I remember it controlling like crazy.
  11. Back when call of duty had options to upload clips through their theater mode. I remember making a clip where I sat behind someone and waited for them to notice me. They never did, so I ended up shooting him. I also remember getting super lucky getting a nuke in modern Warfare 2 or 3 I forget which one. Other than that, in GTA IV I used to troll other players by bringing them out to the water all the way out to the boundary saying there was a glitch and they sometimes fell for it. When I got them there, I'd tell them they had to leave the boat and when they did I'd drove off. It was annoying, because they had to swim all the way back or exit out of game and to back in. I'd say that's the stupidest thing I can think of lol.
  12. To begin, the 360 is no longer supported in the sense that Microsoft still puts out updates. But, you can still buy games, download stuff (updates, games) and also get achievements. But how much long will we be able to do that? I assume one day that the 360 will lose online connection and we won't be able to connect to the Xbox server side. But maybe the fan base will set up servers or something when that happens.
  13. What if I had a good system that could handle most games? Would it still be laggy if the PC I have is suped up enough? True, but I figure it would be nice not to deal with possible hackers and such. Or would a VPN be suffice? So it would work if I had a good enough PC to handle it? I figure running a vm will take up resources, but as long as I have the ram and gpu to do it, I could play somewhat fine than?
  14. Has anyone here heard of this game? It looks to be a space shooter, and it looks like fun. I thought it was a Playstation exclusive, but it looks to be coming out for everything except for switch. Do you guys think this one is a buy, or is it a pass for you? I think I'll going to wait a while before checking it out.
  15. G4 has come back and it's nice to see this group making content again. I haven't seen much about it since it came back though, but from what I see, they aren't bringing it back as a channel, but they seem to be doing content on twitch and youtube. Did they actually bring the channel back as well? Or are they just going to focus on twitch and YouTube going forward?

    Has anyone played this game? It's like dead by daylight mixed with prophunt type games. Yours skills are changing into something on the to trick the monster or villain. It looks like a lot of fun, but doesn't look like it does a whole lot different. Check the trailer out below and let me know if you'd play this game. https://youtu.be/QhT5_aCmDCk
  17. I personally don't think Ray tracing is needed. If anything my PC can't even support it, but that's okay. I think graphics look good as it is. If I could afford a PC or a graphics card that can do ray tracing I would get one, but I don't feel it's worth it right now with how high prices are high at the moment.
  18. This is awesome news if it happens. It's about time someone does something, because there's no excuse for how scalpers are using bots to buy up consoles. Soon enough, they won't be able to use bots at all I hope. Do you think this will make a difference?
  19. Or any of those self deduction games where you have to guess who the spy or impostor is. I played Among Us a few times and honestly it gives me more anxiety than most games. I think it's mainly to do with having to defend yourself. I suck at it, so I always look and sound suspicious even when I'm not the impostor. Anyway, I stopped playing it because it would just be too anxiety inducing. Have you ever had these feelings towards games?
  20. I believe it was an update mostly, but I think it added a new campaign to an existing map. It was nice to boot the game back up after all these years.
  21. I agree with this. I think when you use jump scares right and sparingly, it works out better. But with like layers of fear, the jump scares kinda become lazy. Dead by daylight is a good pick. For me though, most multi-player horror games aren't that scary to me. I find when it's a horror game that's single player it scares me a lot more.
  22. Yeah, but they kind require updates in order to play. Do you just not play then? Yeah that's a good option. If you don't connect online you won't need to do any updates. Some people do that so they don't have to update the games. I have some wrestling 360 games that I may play offline. But im also tempted to get achievements so I would need to update it to play. I could also download the patches, play, then when I get the achievements, I can then delete the patches and play offline in the future.
  23. I suppose so. Just thought it odd that they would care so much for this, but weren't going out of their way to complain about the many bugs and problems. But, I suppose it could be looked at in a way that it feels wrong to be releasing DLC when there are fixes that need to be made. Either way, this game is a mess in many regards, and I don't know if it'll ever recover from this. Didn't the last Battlefield fail due to poor sales? Makes me wonder how the sales are for 2042 now.
  24. Well well well, looks like Sony is going to be making their own version of gamepass, and they're saying it could include PS1, PS2, PS3, and PSP games. The service is codenamed Spartacus, and is said to be coming for both PS4 and PS5. If this turns out to be true, that would be big for Sony. Gamepass has been huge for Xbox and if Sony can replicate that, it could mean Sony can undercut into that market. What do you think of this? If they can make all PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP games work on this, that would be a huge system seller right there. You can read more about this news at the link below. https://www.gamespot.com/articles/playstation-planning-a-game-pass-competitor-subscription-service-called-spartacus-report/1100-6498580/
  25. Sometimes updates and patches ruin a game and makes them unplayable. Are there any games you play, where you don't connect to the web because you want it to be vanilla, like the day 1 experience? I know some people prefer the original release, as they can use glitches and other exploits to get ahead, and usually updates change those. I haven't done this myself for any games. But if I ever decide to, I might just delete certain update files for games on my 360 for example. I'm sure there are some games that are better before the updates even.
