Toxic gamers are an issue I agree but it is mainly casual uninformed gamers that are the issue - I agree that the quality of writing in games has significantly dropped to the point I cannot play most games continuously and enjoy them because they lack a proper story. The greedy devs/publishers are the biggest issue at the moment - they believe they should be paid top dollar for some sub-standard crap they throw together and call it a video game. It's all about money to them and they don't really care about gamer satisfaction nowadays.

You assume it is going to save us money but we haven't even gotten a pricing scheme for the Stadia. It's just like Apple last month listing all these services but no pricing - it means they haven't or are nowhere near ready to be used by consumers and are in the initial to medium stages of development.

Sounds like a fair deal - just remember the dreaded CD scratch! *people shriek in terror* Seriously, that is the only issue I ever had with physical games.

That's quite easy - the DLC vehicles like MKII Oppressor and the Deluxo, why include them in GTA online and guns like the atomizer. It completely ruined GTA online. Other than that, I despise the overtly aggressive NPCs as well.

Castlevania Aria of Sorrow

Driv3r?

I can name one. In Skyrim, you can't jump and attack...I can't even imagine how they could overlook something so simple and the next one is using magic while riding a horse.

Fewer DLCs with sci-fi vehicles such as Oppressors and Deluxos among other vehicles because this is GTA, not Saints Row the GTA edition.

Nice One! But Serana is the most powerful follower in vanilla Skyrim. Her destruction magic is overpowered as hell and she can take on an army without breaking a sweat really.

Tell him he can off the hookers and take back his money unlike in real life if you aren't satisfied...Hey don't look at me funny - it's in the game.😂 In all seriousness, GTA always has very interesting characters, the storytelling is amazing and the practically limitless amounts of things you can do in-game is ridiculous. Did I mention it has real-life elements like bribing the authorities?

I haven't played it in years but when I used to play it, the devs (not Bethesda) loaded the game with microtransactions for essential things such as the crafting tools. It has rubbed me the wrong way ever since.

My pick goes to the Deus Ex: Human Revolution - the story had some sci-fi elements to it but it was a very deep story full of controversy and conspiracy. Most of what was happening in-game is a reflection of our world today where the Government tries to control everyone's freedom of speech, using technology to enslave people as well as the constant fighting between humans of different backgrounds (humans with cybernetics vs regular humans). The constant discrimination against humans implanted with cybernetics.

Objection!... I have to agree with you there but I just love the way he says objection lol.

I know that Metal Gear is known for its stealth, action and gripping storyline but Syphon Filter from the PS1 era was a very gripping game with a brilliant targeting system and the action was amazing.

And some of them can be connected by Bluetooth as well so you don't need a dongle to use the wireless feature.

I used to go to the casino and in San Andreas and play the gambling minigames. San Andreas had many minigames which aided the development of your character like the gym ones.

Of course, you'd be bored but what would you do if it were to happen. Okay, let's say we had a nuclear explosion, most things wiped out, no videogames, very few survivors. Now, what would you do?

Or too old hahaha!

Star Wars Battlefront 2

To be honest, not really but I did learn how to sneak up on someone without them noticing from playing Splinter Cell.

Fallout 3 is already a decade old...it's amazing how time flies lol.

Teaching kids to be accountable from a young age as well as educating kids about the differences between fantasy and reality really aid them in their development. At her age, I was playing games like killer instinct on the Sega Genesis and Mortal Kombat. It's good that you game with your daughter - my dad did that with me at 3 years old when we got Mario and Duck Hunt for the original NES.

I swear Fus Ro Dah would be the most useful one of them all. You could use that on Black Friday clearing the entrance of a store just before it starts and while everyone is dazed, grab what you want.🤣

Most people aren't but EA and these other major companies keep pushing out this garbage because that way they don't have to build a new game, just add incremental upgrades which saves them a lot of money.

At least you're honest about it - most behave like they are unaware of the issue.
