I have never played cricket but when I was in school we used to play rounders and that was a lot of fun. It was similar to baseball I think in a sense as to where you had to hit bases and try to get home. I remember always being picked to take any extra shots in school in hopes we would win as I could always hit the rounders ball far and run fast enough to get a full round home.

I honestly never envisioned cell phones being where they are now so seeing how much further they will go in the future is really hard to tell. Being that we seem to be seeing flip phones coming back but now with a smart screen is something I never saw coming but I will admit, I am a little dubious about those screens and whether they can withstand being part of a flip phone like they are.

It is true that backwards compatibility isn't hardware related and so can not be something that is an innovative feature but it is still amazing to see that games that were on older consoles are now able to be played on new generation consoles. I only wish they had added more games to the list before they stopped adding them as I feel they missed so many out that would have been amazing to see backwards compatible. I would have to say that peripherals for those who have a disability that allow them to still be able to play video games despite what they may have as a disability is amazing. I have seen people who play video games with their face and that is something I never thought I would see.

The last game I played was Roblox. I have been playing a game called Pet Simulator X on Roblox which has been quite a chill game to play and a lot of fun. So much to do in the game which is what I like and it's nice to be able to just chill out on a game like that.

I can't say I have ever played retro game that was released as an emulator and had things changed to give it a new lease of life. I would be all for it though as I feel the older retro games were the best games and having them brought back to life but changed a little to give them a new lease of life would be amazing.

I would love to be able to upgrade to Windows 11 but due to my hardware being as old as it is now, it's not something I am able to do on my PC. My son bought himself a new PC last September and his PC came with Windows 11 on it, I have used Windows 11 and I do enjoy it but those who have used it quite extensively seem to notice some issues they do not like with it. From what I have used of it, I haven't noticed anything yet.

I remember when Eminem first came on the scene, I was still in school and at first, I was not sure about his music but the more I listened to new music from him the more I started to like him and his music. I love how he is truthful in his music and how some of his music tells a story. Definitely one of the best rappers around still for sure.

KPop does seem to have a way of getting you hooked on it. Not sure what it is but it is definitely music I prefer to listen to compared to the music that is released nowadays, it's like a breath of fresh air listening to new music from the KPop genre.

I never had a Sega Saturn myself growing up but I did have a friend that did and they used to enjoy playing on it but I never bothered. It was one of the consoles that I missed out on back then but didn't seem to be one that I regretted missing out on. I remember the Sega Master System being my favorite Sega console when I was a kid.

I wouldn't say the Wii U is Nintendo's worst console but it may be in line with one of the worst consoles. It was definitely not a console that took off at all, I remember having one and we didn't keep it for long as it was barely played. Nintendo Switch is definitely better than the Wii U but the Wii U is definitely one of the less favourite consoles that Nintendo has released.

I wouldn't say it is the best console ever from Nintendo as that I believe is the NES and it will take a lot to beat that. I do believe in terms of gaming now it is more convenient and does give gamers another option for a game console over the others that are on the market but at the moment, I do not think it is the best Nintendo console yet.

I am a firm believer that it does help sharpen your memory skills. I believe any game you play can help with your memory skills as every game takes some kind of remembering whether it be a strategy that you need to remember or memorize or even something you did to get past a level in a game, it all adds up and helps with your memory skills.

If aliens were to come down to earth, I would think they would be interested to know what gaming was and that they would be curious to see what we were doing. Hopefully they would also want to get involved with gaming themselves and possibly get into gaming much like us. Would be interesting to see.

As much as I can understand why games like Apex Legends, Fortnite and even Fall Guys and Overwatch were ported over I don't think every game that is released should be ported over. With some games it will work and will allow many others to play using the console of their choice but games such as RDR2 as mentioned I don't think would work. Unfortunately, I feel as things progress we may end up seeing me AAA games ported over to the Switch whether we would like to see them or not and I feel that is because it will keep more people playing the games on the console of their choice.

This is true. I do feel that with the COD community, the developers can never win and that is why COD is in the state it is in now. First they wanted it to stay how it was and then they wanted change, we got change with jetpacks but then they were not happy again and it got moved back and now I am not sure if the developers even know what they are doing anymore. They need to balance it out so that everyone is happy and so that it isn't a mess about for the players and the developers.

I feel I am somewhat in the same boat, even if I tried to speed run a game something would in the end slow me down. I tend to get distracted by things I see in a game and because of that, I would instantly slow down to check things out.

I agree, you would think there reasoning for delaying the game for that long would be because they have found bugs and looked at how long the bugs will take to iron out and whatever else they need to do to ensure the game is near perfect on release. Two years is a long time so if there are still major issues on release, it will have people wondering what they needed two years for.

This is probably one of the best ways to go about it. The store I used to buy used consoles from is still around now and quite well known so that is why I tend to trust them as there has never really been any complaints regarding used consoles not being good, broken or just useless.

Agreed on both, it really is difficult and I myself have never made it past the first part, I have seen people that have but damn did it take them a while to get past the first part and a lot of rage along the way as well. I agree with you on the cartoons as well, takes me back to when I was a kid when I watched cartoons, a lot different to what we have now but feels more normal that what we have now as well.

Of course he will lay blame on everyone else and be completely innocent despite all the evidence they have to have been able to take it as far as they have done. He did look genuinely worried in court yesterday from the photos they took and that are now online. Seemed to make out like it was nothing once he was in front of supporters again though, classic flip switch to ensure everyone believes he is a victim in what he call a witch hunt. This may be a wake up call to all those in government and politics that if you try something thinking you will get away with it, you probably will not.

It really is a shame to see that they have managed to port such a great game and mess it up. Had it of been done properly without being messed up it would have been a huge success but messing it up like they have done, they may never pull back from it now or of they do, it is going to take a while.

I tend to go by platform, genre and also alphabetical order as well. I find sorting them like that helps me find games easier when I want them which when they are not sorted would be much more of a pain.

As much as I am going to miss E3 it was no surprise to see it finally get cancelled. It had started lacking somewhat prior to the pandemic and the pandemic really did seal it's fate this time around. Was expecting to hear that it had been cancelled way before now to be honest.

I was excited to see the release of their games side of Netflix but knowing it is mobile games it left me a bit disappointed and hasn't made me want to jump into getting a Netflix subscription any time soon.

I feel if I were to make a game that addresses current issues then it would have to be a game based around depression and hidden disabilities. I feel as a society we still forget that many people do suffer with hidden disabilities and also mental health and all too often these things get ignored and it makes those who suffer with them feel bad about how they are feeling. It's an awful vicious circle to be part of. Being able to create a game based on both mental health and hidden disabilities I feel would be great to get the word out there and make more people realize that these things do exist and they are not just made up.
