Dang, that's tough. Sorry to hear that.

Hahahaha, couldn't have said it better. My older cat is about 5 years old now and she doesn't meow much at all but the younger one is just about a year old and he meows frantically all the way until we are home again. Everything went well, thank goodness.

Yes.

Gotta take my cats to the vet for checkup in two hours. *gulp* wish. us. luck.

Ayreon - My House on Mars

Lots of trees, lots of firefights which look more intense in a 'reactable' environment. I like shooting an rpg into an outpost and seeing all manner of things fly into the air, tree branches included. Fun! Because it does matter whether you are picking up a rusty gun off a dead body or buying a new one from an arms dealer with the diamonds you have found. Actually, the cars are a whole lot more user friendly compared to many other games. At least you can get out and fix it without the need of driving all the way to a repair shop. Seen that a couple of times in different video games as well but why do they make every game world after Far Cry 2 look like a goddamn safari park?!

John Cena is awesome.

I hope Escape From Tarkov will be similar to Far Cry 2:

Daemonarch - Hymn to Lucifer

Just Cause 2 was okay because to me it was basically a modern version of Pilot Wings and a huge improvement over the first game. I didn't expect story or good action from the game when I started it but neither did I expect to be able to hijack a jet with a grappling hook. It was advertised as a 'big playground' and it pretty much delivered that. Just Cause 3 on the other hand went for the same route and failed because: a.it had performance issues on the consoles b.wasn't that different compared to Just Cause 2. But man, the original Just Cause had an awesome soundtrack: Good ol' Rob Lord.

Agreed. Dear gaming industry, please give me more ambitious misery simulators so I don't have to replay the same games over and over again.

Well, you can do more stuff in Far Cry 3, 4, 5 compared to Far Cry 2 but Far Cry 2 is more detailed and that makes encounters with enemies and outposts a whole lot more believable. In Far Cry 3 on the other hand every outpost feels the same. One look and you know where the alarm is, where the heavy gunner is, where the animal cages are and if you throw a bait in the outpost, immediately a bear appears out of nowhere and starts attacking baddies. Sure, it feels as if there are more things to do but those activities quickly become boring because they are predictable. But I gotta agree that Far Cry 2 does looks a bit light on content, but I take quality over quantity any day.

The world itself. There ain't much besides the jackal audio tapes and diamonds but the world is so well built that it makes you want to traverse and see every little hill, waterfall, hut etc. The emptiness gives you a sense of solitude that you don't get with other Far Cry games and it is also closer to 'reality' because there ain't much to do or see in a savanna except for the savanna itself.

Grind?! Far Cry 2 is an exploration game more than anything, not a MMO.

I want Alpha Prololol 2.

Just check the reviews properly. I do not know how much they improved, but some point ago, OLED had big issues with longevity of proper display of blue color. Thanks for the heads up, bro. I'll be sure to check out some reviews.

Will be buying a new OLED TV, just not 100% sure which brand and whether it will be 4K or not but it's ok, I take OLED over 4K any day. Sad thing is that I play most games on the PS4 and I still haven't upgraded to the pro. The Xbox One X on the other has the capability to show off 4K in case the TV I buy will be UHD as well as OLED.

Continuing my Yakuza 0 playthrough while playing some Tearaway and Halo on the side. Halo runs at a very smooth 60 fps on the Xbox One X but damn, it was pretty much unplayable before the 19 GB patch. It just kept crashing until the patch was downloaded and installed. These words are gold to me ears lad.

I hope Swery gets to make the game he has envisioned.

This is how Titan Quest looks/plays like on the PS4: Also, hooray for Red Faction: Guerrilla RaMARStered: ...the only version of mars I truly adore.

Finished Blood & Wine. What a needlessly long and tiring 'final act'. Otherwise a fitting end to one of the greatest pieces of DLC ever.

Decided to go back to Witcher 3 and finish up Blood & Wine. It takes more time to finish than most games do. The story isn't nearly as good or coherent as Hearts of Stone though.

Games that offer a unique story and a memorable cast of characters. I also like good racing/puzzle/platformer games. Games that come to mind: Legend of Zelda series, Metal Gears series, Fallout, Arcanum, Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines, Planescape: Torment, Mario games and etc.
