On the way out


The one and only version of the 360 I ever bought.




After five years. My Xbox 360 (the only one I've ever bought because it's never broken) is on it's way out. It's not broken or anything, it's just going to be retired from active service. Next month I will get the PS4 and I already have a Wii U. So I don't really see much need in my 360 anymore because the Wii U and PS4 can perform all the functions that my 360 currently performs. However, I intend on keeping the console and adding it to my collection of previous generations of consoles. I feel a little bit sad that I've spent so much time and money on it and I've had so many joyous hours in return. But as with all good things, they must come to an end.

What are your plans for the upcoming next gen? Are you going to be trade, trash or keep your old console? I'd love to hear your opinion, hit me up in the comments!

Silly Sony

Silly Sony, they do some shocking things. You know how this goes. This constant fixation on graphics - I find this so infuriating. I like substance over style. To me, Sony and their fans just seem to look to aesthetics and then talk about gameplay. Just watch any Sony conference to see what I'm talking about. The PS4 unveiling conference. It was just full of tech demos and cutscenes . Then they tried to say all of the games will look that during gameplay, then at E3. They just didn't. But what annoys me the most is the fan response to this stuff. They always blow things out of proportion.  There are so many games I have played on PS3 that people said were aesthetically amazing, only to find the game was boring and wasn't actually that good in my opinion. Once such game was Heavenly Sword, everyone said it looked amazing, which it did. But. The game was so boring!! I just think people should stop saying games are good because they appear to be good. Actually play the...

Game industry.... Groan.

This post isn't going to be a long, detailed rant about the game industry. Rather, it's going to be a list of things that really annoy me about the industry or things I hate about it. I love everything about gaming, so I am not going to be holding back. That means Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo plus any developers I can think if will be included in the list. SEGA has kept making more Sonic games. Seriously SEGA, NOBODY WANTS SONIC ANYMORE!! GIVE US SHENMUE 3 ALREADY!!! Nintendo is always behind on technological trends. Nintendo, there is no need to do this. You have money, put some of it into making a futureproof  home console. Ubisoft making annual Assassin's Creed games. Come on Ubisoft, it's obvious you are just doing this for the money now.  Activision release CoD annually yet, the game has remained fundamentally the same since CoD 3. *sigh* Sony fanboys  constantly talking about graphics. I know, fans aren't part of the industry. I still hate it. So...

Switch Hype

Even PS4 characters are hyped for Switch! As I mentioned in my last post, which you can read  here.  I am now the proud owner of a Nintendo Switch. I couldn't be happier. I have downloaded a few demos (I don't have the money for all the games I want right now) and I am really enjoying Fire Emblem Warriors.  Just like Hyrule Warriors before it, it is so much more than a Dynasty Warriors game with Nintendo characters. Well, I could write more. But I made a video instead. To save you from doing anymore reading than necessary for today. You are welcome. Watch here.
