I dont have any marijuana left and the birds away all weekend so I'm going to gaze longingly at a pile of games then get drunk on red wine, full on meat feast pizza and rowdy on rocket league.

BioShock was s good game, not an excellent one and not one that lived up to its potential but the savage goon backlash over it is 100% :allears:

Although to be fair most of the criticism was for infinite which was convoluted, pretentious and had special magic powers which I've almost totally forgotten about.

I dropped out of playing DA:I about six or seven hours in to start Witcher 3. I feel like I made a good decision, and I still haven't done Hearts of Stone or Blood and Wine yet

I only own 2 games still in their shrink-wrap, Alpha Protocol on the 360 which will probably remain untouched because I don't currently have a working 360 and some disney tie-in game on ps2 that my dad bought just before he died :(

I'm gonna end up buying destiny just because I haven't been caught up in launch day hope for a VIDEOGAMES since last year.

Also I love how my phone auto corrects VIDEOGAMES to all caps.

Nier A was great despite the massive goon hype, Horizon was great, I'm 12 chapters into Yakuza Zero and its such a rarity being a game with a sense of humour. Loving it so far.

Persona 5 is a special game but I might not finish it this year. PubG is a fantastic game concept but I have to force myself to play it most of the time. Crash Bandicoot is almost too much of what I wanted and feels so familiar that I kinda petered out on it.

Destiny 2 will be fun, monster hunter is gonna give me the feels. Oh and of course we still have rocket league.

VIDEOGAMES doing good yo.

I saw Chumbawumba at a rural music festival in southern Scotland named Knochengorroch around 2008-2009. They refused to play tub thumping apart from 5 seconds of the chorus in the middle of another song. Fair enough since they as re probably sick of that song but they didn't even play Amnesia either.

gently caress Chumbawumba.

Do you guys ever go "Man, I really want to play some videogames!" go to your pc/console, sit down, look at your backlog, see games you really want to play but then just... don't? And then end up booting up something you've played zillions of hours of?

I'm not sure how to explain it, it's like if properly playing a game was too 'involved', and I end up playing stuff which is more... brainless? Like I can just shut my brain and go through the motions of playing a game.

How do you get out of that rut?

I bought ZoE for the MGS2 demo but it's the best non-simulation mech game. It's like playing an anime.

Also loved the screaming when you punch a mech into a skyscraper. And the damage stayed for future battles.

Also what happened to Metal Gear Fortnite?

What's the best sim mech game? Presume it's one of the armored core games which I've never played. Asking for a friend.

The only piece of physical media I've ever thrown out is a dvd copy of the movie house of 1000 corpses because that film is loving gash.

And also a dvd of vampire hunter d although not technically thrown out crops up my wonky fridge.

Then again I have also started running twice a week and drinking only water during the week so :yeah:

Man I am so glad you said that because I have had some hosed up dreams the past few nights.

One I was on a train in Africa and when we got onto the platform to transfer to our next train a pride of lions was unleashed which started maulling passengers. I escaped and enquired about my lost luggage and was led on a 15 minute goose chase around the station before being left alone in a bathroom.

Then last night I dreamt some terrorists broke into my folks house, shot my dad dead, spared my mum and then set off a bomb in my old bedroom.

Post weed dreams are hosed up.
