Well, that's a pretty wise choice because due to the scalpers, regular consumers like us will be lucky to even have a chance of getting on a PS5 within the next 6 months at the regular market price. By the way, is it brand new or used?

I've owned HP laptops in the past and have encountered my fair share of issues with them but its within the realm of what can happen with any other brand of laptops. Asus' cooling in their Ryzen laptops was practically non-existent and they were being called out for it but the MSI Ryzen laptops run pretty cool so it depends on the manufacturer.

To be honest, I'm not really worried about the weight of the mouse because that's pretty negligible and hardly affects your performance in games. I like its very sleek design though and might get myself one of these.

Thank the heavens that AMD removed the computation aspect of their AMD GPUs so miners will no longer buy them up as well. I'll probably have to wait until April next year before I can even hope get my hands on either of the brand new GPUs.

Well my current CPU is an I7 on a gaming laptop and there are ways to overclock it but I do need my laptop so I'm not going to risk it with this.

I despise hackers as well because they ruin the experience for every one that wants to win fair and square. Proving your competence in a game fair and square is the only way to determine where you stand in comparison to your opponents.

Well, I myself used to host small Fifa, Smash Bros melee and Gran Tourismo tournaments at home with my friends and family but the prize was bragging rights lol.

It's kind of true with Mass Effect - they do tend to drag a bit in the opening sequences. Another game I'd say is Medal Of Honor - It must be the super long intro but I was falling asleep during the intro!

Happens all the time! It has happened to me in NFS: Heat as well and the worse part is, throughout the entire race, they didn't bother me that much but as I got closer to the finishing line is when they suddenly remember that they should be challenging me.

That's a valid point actually. In most games nowadays, the consequences of failure are absolutely non-existent. If I were to put a game on this list, it has to be Dark Souls. The checkpoints are few and even if you pause the game, the game itself continues so if you were getting murdered and thing you could take a break, the pause button won't save you.

I agree. It's probably why most of the players in Monster Hunter World tend to be extremely friendly because the boss fights are extremely challenging and requires a lot of teamwork.

That's what I've noticed. For some reason, I was expecting something with 2-D/3-D graphics but it's a good call nonetheless.

It depends on the environment you're exploring. If it's like some of the creepy dungeons in Skyrim with traps at every turn, definitely not. If it's just roaming the landscape or checking out a brand new area with no immediate danger then it can be.

The Lurkers remind me of something out of a freaking nightmare. They'd fit perfectly in any horror show - hell, they could even pass for another alien species.

One other racing game I wish they'd make a new version of is Twisted Metal from the original PS1 & 2. It was a game where you rode around in vehicles with guns and it was a fight to the death with the last man standing being the winner.

Speaking of...I've seen that EA plans to release a VR Medal Of Honor game in the near future and it's going to be fully interactive. You can pull grenades with your teeth among other things. I might just check it out.

I've player the prior Witcher games and I'm going to say I do agree with you that it's a hard story to digest because there's so much going on but most people haven't read the books (the lore is extremely complicated and somewhat contradictory in some aspects). I've read a couple of chapters of the book and the amount of information feels...overwhelming but at least I learnt where some of the monsters originated. We also learn that Geralt sucks at using signs and only knows the basics...

I heard about this game as well but I just thought it was a bit bizarre. Using poop isn't exactly my idea of a good time whether virtual or not and most farming games kind of bore me. I'm down for action - even a bit like a turn-based rpg.

But EA/Bioware has never managed to properly replace the original Dragon Age team or the Mass Effect one. It's one thing to get a replacement but to get a replacement that understands the original vision is very rare.

Rocket League & Mortal Kombat Triology

At my previous job, we used to play Fifa 21 on lunch breaks and when work was almost finished and it was time to go home. It was a pretty good stress reliever to be fair and it also proved that my Fifa skills didn't wane after all these years.

There's no real defense of their practices because every one else is also being affected by Covid. I think most retailers need to start implementing captcha (the difficult ones) among other strategies to limit the scalper's business and make it time-consuming and ineffective. Then again, most retailers only care about the money they receive so...

No way! I'd just wait for a couple of months until the supply catches up to the demand and purchase it for the original market price. Consoles aren't an essential item so I can do without it for a few months.

DMC 5 & Resident Evil 2

I remember I used to sign a song by Lou Bega - Mambo 5 as a kid. It wasn't until I reach my early teens that he was talking about sex. How about you guys?
