With mobile gaming becoming more popular now with games coming to mobile that give people the ability to be able to go pro, it got me wondering how many people here would consider going pro with mobile gaming. I see many people who play Call of Duty mobile and Apex Legends mobile who have played enough and practiced enough that they are now able to go pro in these games and that is quite amazing considering they use the in-game screen controls to play. Would you ever go pro in mobile gaming if you had the chance to?

If there is one thing I see a lot of on say TikTok and even YouTube is how many people who have had an accident of some sort when using VR, whether it be punching someone by accident, falling over or even falling into something and breaking it, there have been many accidents involving VR over the years and I feel that will be something that happens for a long time to come. Have you yourself ever had an accident when playing VR or do you know someone who has? What kind of accident was it and how bad was it? I don't think so far I have heard much about people needing to go to the hospital for accidents but I guess it could be possible depending on the accident.

Many games nowadays are either released with cross-platform or they are released without it and cross-platform comes later in the games life if there is enough interest in wanting the game to be cross-platform. Unfortunately, as much as many games have come cross-platform, we are still seeing some games that are just not even though many would love to see them cross-platform. What game do you play that doesn't have cross-platform yet that you would like to see go cross-platform? Are there any talks about the game you mentioned possibly getting cross-platform?

With 2022 we leave behind many games that were either great or really bad and mobile gaming is one place that had releases in 2022 as well as people who discovered a new mobile game in 2022 as well. Of all the mobile games you played in 2022 which one would you say was your worst? What made it the worst for you?

So far we have seen many games come to VR but there are more than likely still many games that have not come to VR yet that would work with VR. In most cases it could be that they would be possible to come to VR but the developers just haven't done it yet or they just do not want to see their game in VR. If you could see any game in VR that isn't already in VR what game would it be?

So a Twitch streamer I watch, NickEh30 was the other day playing Among Us in VR and I have to admit, seeing it played in VR was just amazing and a completely different experience and it got me wanting to play it in VR myself. I believe it has been out a few months now but it is the first time I have seen it played. I love to play Among Us when I have some spare time but in VR is definitely a goal I have. Have you played Among Us in VR and how is it playing it in VR compared to say on a console or mobile or PC?

World of Warcraft has been a game that has been going for many years and still even now, to this day it is a very popular game played by many. I myself used to play it years ago but because I got so addicted to it, I ended up stopping playing and have resisted the urge to go back to it, even though many have tried to encourage me to do so. I also resist the urge due to the fee you have to pay to play it as well and with my current schedule, I am not sure I would play it enough to justify it. Do you still play World of Warcraft?

When you are a gamer, one of the things many of us would love to be able to do is make our own game. Often we already have an idea as to what we would like to base our game on or what the story line will be but we don't always have the means to get started and make it a reality. My younger brother studied game design in college for 3 years and towards the end of it, he did start to make a video game with his buddies in college which was playable but they never too it any further than that and ended up parting ways after the left college. Have you ever made your own video or would you ever want to make your own video game?

With so many mobile games released now, you would think it wouldn't be possible to come up with something new and unique to bring to the mobile gaming world that hasn't been done already. You will be surprised at some ideas some people have that you think to yourself "Wow, that sounds amazing" that you would think would have been done before but it hasn't. Have you ever had an idea for a mobile game? Is it something that is quite unique to something that has been done before or maybe has a unique twist on it?

I have been trying a few new mobile games just recently to help pass the time or to just take my mind off things a little and to chill a little when I have a spare few minutes. One thing I noticed on at least one of the mobile games I downloaded to try was just how many ads they have in such a short space of time. I understand that they need to pay for their games somehow, especially if their game is quite new and they need the funds to help keep it running, but I feel that in most cases having them say every 1 - 2 minutes is a little overkill and can be off putting to people playing the game, especially when in most cases you have to wait nearly a minute before you can close the ad. What are your thoughts on ads on mobile games? Do you feel they can sometimes be a little over kill?

I was having a look at mobile games in the Google Play Store yesterday and I found a few scratch card mobile games available which got me curious as to how many people use them and if anyone here has ever played a scratch card game on their phone. I myself have never tried any scratch card games on my phone, only seen them. Have you ever used any scratch card games on your phone or is that something you would avoid?

Cloud Gaming has been something that has been around for over a year now and since it's release, the stability of cloud gaming has got better for many with very little disconnection issues than there used to be when they first launched it. I myself only tend to now use cloud gaming if I want to play a game that is available on cloud gaming using my phone or I will also use the cloud gaming service on my Xbox to be able to play games without installing them which I think is a very cool feature. How often do you use cloud gaming and what are your thoughts about it now?

If you do not have a controller at hand to be able to use when you are playing mobile games such as Call of Duty mobile or Apex Legends mobile you can always use the touchscreen controls that are available on the game. These can be a little more difficult to use if you are not used to it and does take quite a bit of practice to get used to. I have seen many people playing both these games using the in game controls and it is quite amazing to see them do so well using those controls. How well do you play Call of Duty mobile or Apex Legends mobile without a controller and with the in game controls?

As many of you will know, with things like Cloud Gaming from Xbox you now have the ability to connect a bluetooth wireless controller to your phone and play games on the go on your phone with a controller. There are many attachments out there so you can easily have your phone and your controller so that you are able to play like any other handheld. What attachment do you use to play games on your phone? Is there another one you are looking at getting in the future or are you happy with the one you have now? I at the moment have a basic attachment from Venom for my mobile phone and my controller. It works but it's not the greatest and I would love to be able to get the Razer Kishi though as I like the look of that and that is something that looks better in terms of turning it into a handheld than using your controller say from your Xbox.

Halo Infinite didn't exactly have the greatest launch when it was launched in 2021 but after some hiccups they did manage to fix things and get things to have they wanted them to be. I remember when they released Halo Infinite Multiplayer a little early, I jumped on it for launch and I was plagued with connection issues and also being kicked out of games. I haven't played it too much since a few weeks after the launch but I have heard that they have made so many improvements to it since then. Have you played Halo Infinite since the somewhat failed launch? Is it a lot better now or does it still have it's issues?

Right now mobile gaming is as popular than ever with games like Call of Duty and even Apex Legends making it to mobile which has become quite popular since they were released on mobile. With games like this on mobile is there a possibility that gaming on mobile will only get even more better over time? Technology is always changing and always getting better, how long do you think it will be before we see better quality gaming on mobile?

I have so many games I could add to this list if I am honest but from the top of my head right now I would have to say Call of Duty Black Ops 3 Alex The Kidd Yoshi's Island Sonic the Hedgehog Super Mario World Kirby's Dreamland Animal Crossing New Horizons Tetris PacMan Fortnite Apex Legends There are so many more but they are the ones I can think of right now off the top of my head.

Saw was one game I remember playing way back that I played but after a while I couldn't continue playing it just because it did scare me. I am quite easily scared so games and even movies like that scare me quite quickly. Another was when I was a kid and my brothers had Resident Evil, I used to watch them play and they used to let me play as well but I would get too scared during me playing that I would pass it back to them. It's weird as I now don't get scared when it comes to Resident Evil.

I feel unionization will help gaming a lot to be honest. I can only imagine how much abuse game developers go through over games as I have only ever seen what they have allowed to be released to the public in terms of situations regarding the gaming industry and abuse. I know with Cyberpunk, that could have been such a smoother release and a lot better for them if they waited a little longer but they were pressured and that was wrong. More does need to be done to protect them and prevent incidents like that happening. It's not fair on the developers when they give in to demand and then get abuse because the release wasn't finished.

Not going to lie I would like to see jetpacks comes back once again, I did enjoy Black Ops 3 a lot with the mechanics they used and how new and different it was. What they did with Black Ops 3 worked and it made it a fun game. Yes you still had campers as you will in ever Call of Duty game but to be honest, it also meant more people were running around the map as well due to the jetpacks.

It's not too often I play games solo if I am honest but I do on the odd occasion play them solo. Fortnite is one, I don't mind from time to time playing some solo games myself as I feel I can better focus on the game at hand, work on how I am going to play without issue. Minecraft is another, this one I love to just hang out in creative if I am honest and just have fun building stuff and chilling out

For me it would definitely have to be Mario Sonic Call of Duty Need for Speed Forza Gears of War Those are just to name a few off the top of my head now, I know there are a lot more though but my memory can be like at fish at times.

I know Fortnite tried the whole split screen thing for their online multiplayer and as much as it was a godo idea, it was awful to use for something like an online game. I do think that because of how big online gaming is now and because of how accessible the internet is now as well, split screen is definitely something that we will now see less and less of until it just phases out.

I don't mind watching full videos of games on YouTube if it's a game I am playing myself and I watch the video for help or inspiration on the game so that I do not miss out on things. Most of the time though I spend time looking through walk through of games or just small play through of games to watch when I have the time.

I feel that social media has definitely had not only a positive affect on gaming but also a negative affect. Positive in terms of that we can now connect with other gamers all over the world, share our thoughts and even make new friends but also that it has made is possible for content creators to make their streaming and content creation a full time job. In terms of negative, I feel that the gaming social media whilst a lot of the time is pretty solid and polite, you do get some bad apples who take it too far and give gamers a bad name.
