Reality vs Adventure

In 2023 the super bowl will take place in Tampa Bay Fl. again? WTF Someone is forking over a lot of money to make this happen. That tells me Tampa Bay has the dominoes already stacked for them to win. In cookoo town, money wins over the game.

Which do you think holds up being the better games? I personally am more interested in the latest titles, but feel free to talk about any of them. I haven't played any at all except for the Batman Asylum using 3D glasses. I thought it was pretty good. I'm debating which to try first whether the new Spiderman or Arkham Knight. I really want a good cityscape to add to my scenery gaming collection. Do they have a good story? Scenery? Which has better mechanics for fighting and traveling building tops? Which has a greater variety of characters?

I've got Uncharted 4 still in plastic I've never played. I like the series, it's just I keep thinking I'll finish other games first. And I have Outlast 1 and 2 just waiting to download. My systems will probably blow up before I ever get the chance. I sat down today to play a game and got to the start up screen and my power cut out and went back on. So now I'm gonna leave it unplugged for a while. Aww, life in the country; just pondering what files are corrupted now.

Budweiser is gonna sit this one out but Anheuser Busch will have one and Michelob Ultra. Here is a list and videos for all the 2021 commercial lineup. https://www.vulture.com/article/2021-super-bowl-commercials.html Don't have to watch the game anymore! Think I'll just record it and skip through the boring parts. I want to see them all kneel at the beginning to piss off the racists. My loony toon family lives there and they would just croak over in their dirty swamp. 😛

Who's gonna win? Did you place bets? I say end score is gonna be Kansas City 34 to 27 Tampa Bay. I thought the super bowl was never held in one of the two teams hometown? Anyways, put on your wire hats and stay tuned to Floridian football in cookoo town.

I know it hurts running out of space when you want to add more games. But when you have to choose, what games will you absolutely never delete even when you have completed it? For me I have to say some of the Assassins Creed games because I don't see how the adventure and scenery can get old for me. Witcher 3 and Horizon Zero Dawn are probably keepers. And I've completed Dying Light a year ago, but can't bring myself to delete that one.

The goon just got booted off all her committees. She's still there, but no work to do. What a shameful waste of time electing the bitch.

We are already in a zombie apocalypse with people walking around sick and literally willing to kill you instead of wearing a mask for a deadly virus. They try to protest and block people from getting vaccinated. They are the walking dead. There are images of these mad people at the windows of shops, and on the streets, in stores, all ranting and raving and look half dead trying to attack everybody. News anchors fall apart in their shows, president fell victim, others in government have fallen; neighbors gone missing lost in conspiracy; they run at you to breathe in your face; their viral kind want to pass it on to you. Gun shelves are getting empty. The zombies are here folks. Only a matter of time before they wrip out your neck using their teeth.

White people are against democracy. They plot they are killed by cops. Whites are lost. D what you feel you have to; We will show you truth; you either fall; ]

I've read through this topic before, but never really sank in to me. Now I realize after you referred to the God of War game as people see it being only mythical as offensive to you. I myself have to stand corrected and apologize for being insensitive. You definitely have rarity in your veins. I think the reason people think Greek Gods are considered mythology is because, as far as I know, there isn't temples to worship, people trying to convert, modern books, etc. If Christianity or any other religion today ceased existence of a place to worship, books, and converters, then Jesus and God would be a myth. But who is to say what is relevant in today's beliefs? A single god is the new belief. Something happened 2000 years ago to force mankind to believe in a single Deity. In the new world Native Americans had their own beliefs that is something I am ignorant in myself being 16% Native American. I struggle everyday being Native, White (English, Italian, Scottish, French, Dutch, and Spanish (white). I know Spanish is European, but it's a double whammy knowing American whites don't like my heritage being Hispanic. And on top of that, I struggle with what my kind did to the Natives. I'm born a true American where everyone is accepted. I don't even know what I'm trying to say anymore. This is deep to me. But I have learned to respect all beliefs. I continue to learn.

So far I've had a pretty good experience with games that are not new because the ones I buy have added DLC and the patches are all fixed. Recently, I've gotten a couple new games and yep, bugs crawling around glitching left and right with expensive DLC. I see absolutely no reason buying new games, let alone at an even higher price. I can see how a person may be really excited to get a new game though. I'm just new to the world of bugs. If they are going to go more expensive, I as a consumer demand it to be gold lined with platinum wrappers. Add DLC, gear, or remastered extra games in the series as a bundle from get go. I am the almighty; the all powerful...consumer. I control the world. So I won't buy it.

Having a bird that can fly above everything; see the landscape; spot points of interest. To me, that is such a great function. I guess it would only work in open worlds. But doesn't have to.

Putting offensive things out there and just wait for a community response to it, risks normalizing that hate. I'm speaking directly about a game like Ethnic Cleansing. There is a swath of flies that feed off of that and want it put out there to be normalized. When barriers are broken, more and more gets chipped away as it weakens. If you keep putting that offensive thing out there and you have people with money to endorse that game regardless of negative community feedback, then games like that will keep coming out till it's on the Christmas shelves displayed in the front. That kind of hate needs to be ridiculed so damn much that those haters will look worse than a child molester. Those things are inexcusable and should be forbidden to be put on the shelves. It's not about a community reaction. We had a world war against that crap. Luckily Ethnic Cleansing didn't start a trend. But that was 20 years ago. About half my country are neo nazis now, so that community demographic has changed. How many people now will cheer for it like a racist cheerleader that they are. Oh but who cares right? Let's all just get it out there on the shelves. Let's get the word out in the radio. Get it out in all media. Let the community sort it out. Yep, sort it all out in war because nobody took a stand against things like that game. Those people are going to hate no matter what regardless of driving it underground or not. So we shouldn't fear their hate festering and growing. We should fear the openness and normalizing.

Now you're just making me feel like one too

I think it's closer than we know. Elon Musk's Neuralink has a wireless implant in a monkey's skull to play video games with its mind. Read here: https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-neuralink-monkey-plays-video-games-using-his-mind-2021-2

I think Brexit is isolationism, which is nationalism, which is authoritarianism. I think that one of the reasons for Brexit is due to immigration; It’s symbology is very similar to trump’s wall. Another is financial reasons, of which is always debatable. But it reminds me of trump pulling out of Paris agreement, complaining about footing the bill for NATO, etc. It’s isolationism. They say usually USA and UK politics are related and if a rep. or dem. was elected in USA, then one in the UK follows suit or vice versa; I just saw on the news that Scotland may become an independent country again due to Brexit. So the UK in my eyes is going down an isolationist path benefiting only the nationalists that are the far right. The alliance with NATO is becoming questionable. There is a lot of Russian propaganda out there taking hold in the far right of the world, and Putin loves the decision to Brexit. Sure he has his men working to convince those to support it in more of his disinformation/conspiracy campaign. Anything that benefits the far right, I'm against.

One of the repercussions of the republican coup is the fall of Myanmar to military rule just recently. The military spewed the same lies of election fraud and wanted a redo from this past Nov. So the military just took over. Trumpocracy became koolaid for coups around the world. It is the playbook now. So we can expect more of this. They feel emboldened now that the USA is a 'shithole' country. Claims of election fraud is the gold standard now.

I watched Inheritance last night. It was pretty creepy. I just had the tv on doing other stuff and was just half watching from the beginning. Then it just took me in and I couldn't take my eyes off. Very good acting too. I mean, they brought some drama into a horror movie. Left me mouth agape a few times. lol. Just thought I'd share.

Yes!!! I've got that game on ps2 and really liked it.

I don't know, but with 2021 we are now in a new era. Especially with a pandemic driving more people to gaming, I think the 2020's are going to be quite an era and games probably will get politicized. There will be a gaming revolution as people of all groups and ages get more into it this decade, and also as technology is ever progressing. I think politics may shadow creativity a bit giving rise to Indie type games. But I think as turmoil takes the world this decade to come, individual creativity usually shines in these moments. Games will feel more intense, as they will indirectly reflect humanity's crisis.

The game has multiple discs?

WTF; so that bigoted b.s. has already been done? This is exactly what happens when terrorists have free speech. And people don't think a government infiltrated by those bigots won't make a whole genre of games like that??? I'm literally pissed some fuck heads actually allowed such a thing to be published.

I just bought Syndicate yesterday. I got the limited ed. but forgot all the DLC are already expired. I really want to play the Jack the Ripper DLC. Did you try that DLC? Supposed to be pretty good. I plan on buying the whole AC series. Maybe even the first one. But it seems like that one is a lost orphaned child of the series. I've been playing AC2 and to me is a good starting point. Very good game so far.

That's funny; Notre Dame Cathedral has similar architecture throughout the world to honor it. I've been there before and beneath it are Roman ruins. Much of the stone work to make the cathedral is taken from those ruins. You can actually go underneath to see it all. And Paris itself is built over a massive network of catacombs. I wonder if AC Unity has many quests down in the Paris underworld. I thought at first the video would be cheesy, but they actually did a great job on it.
