The Purge (2013) - 8/10

Weekly update: How's everyone's week been going so far? Mine's been a bit iffy but I'm doing okay for the most part. How about you?

Was crushing it in some Baldur's Gate 3 - I came up with a new experimental Wizard build but I haven't quite perfected it yet so I won't say more as of yet.

Which Megaman games will you be getting? I'm going for the Battle Network series - what about you?

Hmmm - It looks okay I guess? I don't get a lot from this trailer - open-world survival horror game? I get that but where's the gameplay?

As a lover of older vehicular combat games like Twisted Metal, I'm quite liking the look of this game. I hope they'll introduce more game modes than just the fastest player wins like deathmatches and what not.

It depends on how much energy I have. When I'm really up for it, I'll take an extended walk with my pooch or we go the beach for a walk there.

Although I like both I do slightly prefer eBooks because of the convenience. That being said, I do have both types and I have some pretty iconic physical books.

With streaming services dominating the music industry, I'm curious if anyone here still buys physical music like records or CDs. Do you enjoy the tangible experience of collecting music, or is it more about the nostalgia? How often do you buy, and what motivates you to choose physical over digital?

When it comes to enjoying music, do you find yourself gravitating towards solo listening sessions or do you prefer sharing the experience with others? Whether it's the personal connection you feel with your favorite tracks or the joy of vibing with friends, I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

Whether it’s a timeless classic or a hidden gem, what’s that one game you think everyone should experience at least once? It could be something with an unforgettable story, addictive gameplay, or a game that just offers pure fun. Share your top recommendation and why you think it’s a must-play for anyone, regardless of their usual gaming preferences.

Have you ever noticed that skills or habits you picked up from gaming have actually benefited you in real life? Maybe strategic thinking from a strategy game, improved hand-eye coordination, or even better social skills from online multiplayer games?

I'm curious to hear how everyone found their favorite gaming genre. Was it a specific game that drew you in, a recommendation from a friend, or maybe something you stumbled upon by accident?

I'm curious how community events or meet-ups have impacted your gaming experience. Do they make the game more enjoyable or deepen your connection with it? Whether it's online tournaments, local gatherings, or conventions, I'd love to hear your stories about how these events have enhanced your love for gaming.

With all the rapid advancements in gaming technology, there's a lot to be excited about, but are there any developments you'd rather avoid? Whether it's something that could ruin the gaming experience or cross ethical boundaries, what tech do you hope never makes its way into the gaming world?

When a game gives you choices that can alter the storyline, how do you approach these decisions? Do you role-play a character with a consistent set of morals, or do you choose based on what you think will lead to the most interesting outcomes? I'm curious about how others weigh their options and what factors influence your decisions.

Especially within the last decade. Ubisoft's quality of their games fallen off a cliff - I get so frustrated when I remember the Splinter Cell games and old Rainbow Six games that are iconic and seeing how generic and buggy their games are now.

Isshin from Sekiro was definitely a tough one. It’s bosses like those that made Sekiro so memorable, even if it nearly drove me insane in the process.

That's a very fair point and I can see why people like single-player games and sometimes, I do prefer it depending on my mood. I love playing single-player games like RDR 2, Skyrim, The Witcher 3, God of War etc. because of the amazing experiences they provide us gamers.

You could try converting a spare closet into one. That's what one of my gaming buddies did because he also doesn't have that much space.

For me, it's the ability to use different mods to create brand new gaming experiences making every playthrough feel very unique.
