Right, it's so good. As for your song, not a huge fan of Megaman myself, but this is a great jam. I'm going to see if this is available on spotify. I'd say an 8/10 for me. I have to go with the theme of Snake Eater for my next pick. I really get that 007 vibe from it. It also fits with the timeframe of the game too.

I have had The Witcher 3 for like 5 years now, and I only played a small portion of it. I couldn't get used to the amount of menus and options I had. Was overwhelming so I never stuck with it. I may jump back into it one of these days, but I have to really invest into it if I want to take it seriously I think.

This is cool, A fan project titled Half-Life: Levitation was given the greenlight by Valve themselves to release on Steam today. It is a free unofficial add-on for Half-Life: Alyx, which has four hour campaign, with voice acting, and more. It also includes characters like Alyx Vance and G-Man. You can find more details on the game at the link below: https://www.pcgamesn.com/half-life-alyx/sequel-steam-levitation and via the Steam Workshop below: https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2881604879

Pretty epic diddy right there. :D I'd say a 7/10 for me. Not something I really get into, but I get why it's liked, it's a good track. And one of my all time favorite tracks from one of my favorite tracks. Mmm, so damn good! Once it sets in, I'm brought back to playing that classic. Honestly surprised it hasn't been posted here yet. It's also really relaxing.

The Witcher 3 will be coming out with a Next Gen Update that will boast better visuals, new content, photo mode and more. This is for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X. I still have yet to play The Witcher 3 on current gen consoles. But if I had the money, I think I'd go for this version for sure. Check out the trailer with more details below. And tell us, is this a purchase for you? Also, I see it mentions free update, so I wonder if you own the game on last gen consoles if you can get this version for free. That would be quite cool.

I couldn't find a topic on whether or not VGR has their own Steam group. I did a search on Steam and couldn't find any groups titled VGR. It might be that VGR is too short to search, but I couldn't find anything. With that being said, I think it would be really cool if we had a group just for VGR on Steam. Maybe we can work out something for Xbox, Playstation and Nintendo as well so all bases are covered.

Black Friday 2022 is upon us, as tomorrow is Thanksgiving, Happy Thanksgiving by the way! :) And the day after is Black Friday, the time of year everyone goes crazy for sales, but now you don't have to go into the store to buy what you want anymore, as each store is doing online sales along with their in store stuff. Anyway, this is a topic about what games you guys are looking to pick up this Black Friday, or peripherals, consoles, and other gaming stuffs. I'm kinda broke as of late, but I may pick up some games on sale, either through the online marketplace, or I might go brave the lines for some gaming stuff. What about you?

Or purchase as they call it. The FTC might file an antitrust lawsuit to stop the $69 billion takeover of Activision/Blizzard. From what I see, the FTC is worried that Microsoft would get an unfair boost in the video game market. You can read more on this story here: https://www.politico.com/news/2022/11/23/exclusive-feds-likely-to-challenge-microsofts-69-billion-activision-takeover-00070787 Sony is opposed to this deal as they are worried it will result in the exclusivity of these games going to Xbox. But, if Xbox is telling the truth that they will support Sony by releasing COD and other games on their platforms yet. I hope they aren't lying about that. In turn, Sony is worried they will create a monopoly, which I totally understand. And Xbox is like, nah we won't do that, but have the power to do it at any time if they desire. So I think Sony is worried the deal will go through and Microsoft will go back on their statement and will keep the games exclusive to Xbox.

Yeah it's a nice feature. Though it is a bit weird in how to get it to work, because you have to sign in on their PC in order to give them access. But once you do, and turn on family sharing, it allows you to share all of your games with that person. But... You won't be able to access any games they are playing at the same time, so you need to tell the person you're sharing with that to let you know if you play something.

Honestly, wireless is preferable, but wired is probably more reliable and lasts longer. I've had many issues with wireless controllers in the past, and it usually was due to the way you charge them. All of my 360 controllers stopped charging at some point. It got bad that I had to keep my plug n charge cable connected at all times anyway. At that point, I'm okay with wired, because I don't usually take my controller too far anyway. I keep it by my xbox and I sit close to that when I use it anyway.

It just proves it can be done too. Mods are nice, but I think an actual version for VR from Rockstar would be vastly better. But I suppose a mod is better than no VR. And yeah, with the inclusion of first person view, it would make perfect sense to include VR controls. And I think it would make deadeye more fun.

Which is why I wish they would go the route of making Madden into a game that is constantly updated. With their ultimate team, I'm not surprised they don't make the game free to play to capitalize on that. Would I think solve so much with Madden, because then you can focus on continually improving the game to make it the best football experience you can. That's what a Madden game should become. But EA wants that cash and they gotta keep re-releasing the same game, that still has animations from back nearly 10 years ago. It's just become a lazy rehash each year. I want a good football game, but each new release is as underwhelming as the last.

Exactly, there's no point in adding everyone to the mix when not everyone will agree to it in the first place. I can see some players asking not to be added in, or requesting money to be added in, which I doubt EA would do either. I'm pretty sure they did it for past college football games they did, so it is odd to me.

Well yeah. They would need to license any pro wrestlers they go after, much like how Fortnite does with their character skins, emotes and so on. It's not like they can just toss them into their game without first getting the right to do so. It's why Fortnite is such a success, because they get all of these characters, popular brands and more together into one game. It's like how Funko pops license pretty much every property under the sun. From Marvel, DC, Star Wars, Star Trek, sports, music stars, and more.

Nope, still 2022. It drops December 2nd, so just a couple weeks away or so. Not much time left. But with how games are released these days, a delay could happen any time yet.

Can't say I've seen it. I know you can get Gwen Stacy through the current battle pass, but I haven't seen this new Spider-man you're speaking of. Then again I haven't played the game in the last few days, so maybe the shop reset had that skin. I got a bunch of the other Spider-Man skins, I'm good with those. I don't like spending much in Fortnite anyway.

I know I can't take advantage of VR myself, but I can dream about certain games getting the VR treatment. I think it would be awesome if they made RDR2 into a VR game, hell even the first game. I hear there is a mod for RDR2 that lets you play in VR, but that's probably not stable compared to one if Rockstar did it. With the PSVR 2 coming as well, the subject came back into my head. Do you think RDR2 could be made into VR for the PSVR console? Or is Rockstar not going to bother with that?

I'm actually debating if I should finally give Sea of Thieves a try. I have heard good things since it has been updated over the years, and it seems to be a stable and fun game. SO maybe it's time I jump in. I can always try to steer some friends to play it soon. :D

Probably depends on the game. I don't like parts to be locked off because you picked a certain faction or group in a game. I'm fine with there being other factions, who have different views and ways of doing things, but I don't think segregated is a cool way of putting it. I think some factions will dislike you, and I think that adds to the game. You also need conflict with the factions I'm sure.

I think to bring me back to most any game it would require new content. Sometimes it's just replayability that keeps me coming back to some games. Like Super Mario Bros. 3. I always come back to that one, even after I spent a long time away. I know that isn't an MMO, but I think it works for most games too, in that you can stop playing an MMO and come back to it later. Replayability is a big thing for any game, even MMOs. I think if it gives me new content, free or paid for, that will help get me to come back. I think most gamers would feel somewhat the same.

I'm sure they still have some kind of creator program for anyone to make games, it's just now you probably won't make money off of them or they won't have achievements and all that. I think Xbox mostly has it covered, they still have some shady games on their program, but for the most part it seems like they don't allow tons of garbage to get released.

Yeah I don't trust most of what EA is about. Madden has been a shell of what it used to be. It used to be an actual fun and competitive sports game, but it's a paint by numbers version of what it once was. The yearly releases have ruined it and took innovation right out the door. So EA would have to get the legal rights to add every player they want. I'm willing to bet they don't even get every player who wants in, and instead just makes up players and names. I'm pretty sure they did the same with older NCAA games, but I may be wrong. But yeah, licensing with college sports has gotten big since players can capitalize on licensing deals now. But if EA can't get through that, they'll just make up players to put into the game.

I read something about the new Hogwarts game, and I guess you can change the pitch of your voice. If that's the case, I hope they allow us to do something like that in future games. As long as I can mess with sound of my voice, to make it as close to mine, or to someone else, that would honestly be cool to me. Most games that have voice options, don't usually have the greatest sounding voices imo. But this would give me more options.

It may have won a ton of awards and fans may be happy with the campaign and portions of the multiplayer, but the free to play aspect ruined it. I haven't played the game myself, but I'm not much of a Halo fan. But, I know how important the franchise is to fans and how well received it has been over the years. But, the free to play aspect has left fans wanting more. I hear they don't have modes they should have had at release, and I hear their battle pass or road ahead is not very good. The Act Man did a good video about it, and he expresses all the problems better than I can. Basically he doesn't paint a good picture for the future of Infinite, because the game is already losing players left and right. Maybe one day Infinite can catch up and get good, but not the free to play method it seems.

It's also hyperkin, so they might charge a bit extra as well. But to be fair, I think their release of the Duke controller was kinda fairly priced, but I think it's gone up recently in price, so maybe I'm wrong on that now. As long as it's priced around the same, or hell, even lower, I'll be happy. Controllers these days are so expensive, and it seems like the third party ones tend to be a bit cheaper in price. Hyperkin not always the case, but they aren't too expensive, so I have hope this too isn't too expensive. As for retro-gouging, I believe ya on that. I can see some collectors buying this because of the retro look of it. Saying retro for the 360, feels so weird lol. I know people who collect controllers, and they'll be after this for sure.
