YES!!!! WWE Smackdown Here Comes the Pain is one of the best WWE/Wrestling games out there. Hands down one of the best. I really need to replay that game, maybe I'll get emulate it and stream it somehow. I miss the days of playing it. The current WWE games don't even come close to it.

Canon endings that bother me, that's a tough one, I honestly can't think of anything that I hated in regards to canon. At least when it comes to video games, I can't think of anything. Maybe movies and tv shows, but video games I'm having a hard time answering for. I'm sure there was something, but can't name anything.

Mafia is great. I played the original game on the PS2. Sadly the PS2 version wasn't as good as the PC version. Which Steam recently had available for free. I picked it up. 🙂 Anyway, Mafia II was pretty decent. I still have yet to play Mafia III though.

Yeah Ebay is pretty good about buyer protection. If you're scammed or someone isn't honoring the sale, you should be covered by ebay. If you can, I would buy from Sony themselves or from in store. Be safe with Walmart online as well, they allow people to sell products, just like Amazon & ebay, and there are some scammers on there as well. If you do buy from Walmart, make sure it's sold by Walmart, and isn't from another seller.

That's too bad, any chance this will work on PC? I figure if it at least works on PC, I would consider buying it. I know the Xbox pro controller works on PC, or it should at least. I can see a lot of people still using their PS4s, so if I was Sony I'd make it possible to play on both. Xbox controllers today work on last gen Xbox consoles.

I really hope he makes more of these. AI generators are a fun time, and now they're making somewhat competent reviews lol. I bet IGN would pay for it! 😄

I think I saw that exact glitch on tiktok a while back. I don't intend to do it myself. Once I'm playing as John, I'll continue the explorer stuff. I'm going to try and 100% it this time around. But I'm taking it really slow.

When I used to play Call of Duty a lot in the past, I would often yell at other players. I'd swear at them often and act like an asshole pretty much. I miss the randomness of public game lobbies, but I don't miss the arguments and whiney teens we used to play against all the time. Now days I don't play COD as much, and when I do, I don't have my mic in. And if I hear any loud and obnoxious people, I'll just mute them in game.

My last phone costed me around $150 I believe. I forget. I can't afford to get anything at the moment. I want to eventually upgrade, because sadly phones become obsolete fast it seems. I don't even have service on my phone, I just use it around the house. If you're looking for a good gaming phone, I hear the newest flagship Samsung and Apple phones will do you well, but there are specifically gaming phones on the market. I believe Razer has one and I think there's another brand that makes a gaming phone, that's kinda similar to Razer, but I am forgetting their name.

True, it's a fairly easy survival horror game. From what I have seen of the games, the choices seem to have impact, and sometimes you have to make them quickly on the fly. I imagine most gamers can figure out how to keep everyone alive in these games too. For me, I can see myself having an easier time playing these games, even though they may have jump scares and other cheap scares, I feel like it's more my pace and I can handle it more than say other, more popular and traditional survival horror games like Resident Evil. Yeah Evil Within is a game that counts. I think I tried the demo of the first game, but couldn't get into it. I watched a playthrough for both games, and I liked what I saw, but it's the type of game where your character kinda moves a bit too slow at times. At least that's what I felt from the time I did play it. I wonder if there are plans for third in the series. I feel it's been a long time coming.

Lets move on from EA, it's kinda taken a turn to talk about how bad EA is. And I get it, EA can be awful at times. But let's move the discussion back to Skate itself. My hope for skate is that it plays exactly like previous skate games. I'm used to the controls, and can probably pick up a controller today and play the game like I did back in the day. If it plays like a true skate game, I don't care if it has purchasable items like clothes, skins, skate boards, etc. I think I'd be fine with the base setup you get when you start. But if they offer us free unlockables, that would be nice. I wouldn't mind that if they added microtransactions. I just hope they don't add loot boxes, those need to be cut out of games. Unless they give you them for free and don't sell them, but if they add it, they'll make sure to get money out of it.

Yeah with free to play it makes more sense. And I especially accept it more when it's a smaller studio doing it themselves. Even though it's Epic Games, I feel like what I pay for it, gives me what I want. But with a paid for game, I don't like that there are items behind a paywall. Like single player should offer unlockables at least. Maybe online a mix of unlockable and paid for items. I'd be fine if we unlocked items still, and rare and unique items, not items everyone gets. I think that'd be cool.

That is true. Especially now that they're buying up studios. Microsoft was accused of trying to monopolize operating systems I believe. Or something like that, I forget what it was. But yeah, they're all giant corporations trying to create more profits. When in reality they probably don't need all of those profits. At least not to the CEO and higher ups. I think the wealth in these companies should be shared more fairly. Like the developers getting paid the most along with voice actors and artists, etc. The CEOs should make a fair deal sure, but not too much either. It's time these executives pay the developers better wages, so that maybe then they're also more motivated to create better games. And I always figure the people creating the art, should be paid for it, not some massive company that takes most of the profits. Sure some of it should go to the company too, but damn, give the developers equal pay or better. They are the stars after all.

A friend of mine uses an old door and a couple file cabinets for his desk. Not very stable I would imagine and probably takes up a lot of room.

Retro games run on new tech, it's just that it was never optimized for the TV's we have today. The consoles back then used the red, yellow, white connections or rca I think they called it. So that only puts off like 480p or probably less I'm not sure. But with emulation you can do a lot. Games look crisp on my RetroPie setup. Of course nothing beats playing these games on a crt tv, as it just looks right. Also nostalgia.

Mostly in Fortnite. I don't buy items a lot though. I usually get the battle pass per season. Sometimes I'll buy a skin or dance etc. If something cool pops up, I might get it.

There are people using VR for mental health reasons. I hear it can help those with autism and other neurodivergent conditions. I know someordinarygamers on YouTube has a video about how he slept in Minecraft for a month for his insomnia. And I guess it helped him sleep easier. But yeah, I can see VR helping with many things including mental health. It could serve as a safe space kind of thing, like your happy place.

Nope, but a friend of mine has a spreadsheet with fallout 76 details. I think the plans and other tips. He updates it with any info he finds I guess. I think it's a great idea to keep track of games.

It depends. I don't really buy new these days. Or on release I mean. I can wait a while to get it. Plus I think I get enough from what I already have and what I can get from gamepass. I'll sometimes buy games on sale, but even then it's rare as I can get a lot of the cheap games on gamepass.

It's kinda hard to do stuff while gaming. If I need to do something, I usually pause the game to check it out. But I don't usually do anything else while gaming. It's kinda hard to multitask while gaming.

I haven't had to call too many support teams for video game companies. I called Sony years ago due to one of my memory cards being erased by their demos. I've also contacted Xbox support before. Xbox was fine, PlayStation was fine. I mostly otherwise email support. Call of duty isn't great with their support I feel. I've reached out to their online support, but I don't remember if they helped much.

Is that the service you get to play games as well? Or is that a different service from Sony? I'm forgetting what it's called if it's different. It's not playstation now is it? If it offers games, I'd look into that.

I usually just tell my friends when I'm going to be on. Or they will tell me. Sometimes we have to figure out a day, but usually we just let each other know when we can game. And then we hang out for a bit on Discord.

Hmm, not a bad deal considering you get nearly a months worth. Most trials I've seen from these types of services are usually week long trials. So a plus for them.

I know there was rumors of a possible remaster for Goldeneye coming, and it seems to be true. Goldeneye will be rereleased on Xbox and switch. The Xbox version will drop on gamepass day one. The game will also have updated graphics and includes achievements and split screen.
