No, not anymore. It's what I used to do before when I had excess time at my disposal to play video games without stopping for hours. Right now, even the 24 hours in a day isn't enough for me. So if I'm playing video games, it's going to be snappy.

Yes of course, video games can be educational in so much ways. It depends on what you're playing that's going to determine what you're looking at learning from the game. I've heard someone said he got so much knowledge about guns because of so many shooting games he has played dealing with different kinds of guns. He can tell any gun in real life once he sees it because he's already very familiar with them in video games.

I don’t think this will ever happen. The company is making a lot of profit and the brand is mainly known for GTA so I think they’ll focus on different versions and remakes for the time. But, who knows?
Well, that's what's happening right now. When you have something that's already working for you, it's smart to focus on it and milk it for as long as it brings the desired results. This is exactly what Rockstar is doing with their GTA and RDR franchise. Moving away from these honey pot is going to be a bad business decision.

So State of Play is tonight, I believe. Rumours indicate that Until Dawn is returning, but the Silent Hill series ought to be shown too.
Konami really hasn't been putting out a great deal of anything of note on the games, despite the remake of 2 and other projects being announced in the fall a few years back. But they decided to slag off that 'Ascension' garbage recently with an amusing, "It's trauma" merchandise line. So even Konami knows it totally sucks balls. And that's certainly saying something.
Maybe be careful as to who gets to use your IP the next time, huh?
For those who didn't get to follow up on the PlayStation State of Play. Have fun! It was an interesting one. 15 games were shown but unfortunately there was nothing about upcoming Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but from update, it's going to be having it's own reveal show on February 6th, 2024.

I love a game with an epic music score/soundtrack. Music doesn't necessarily make or break a game, but it can sure enhance the experience.
Even though music doesn't necessarily make or break a game as you stated, but when your experience in a game is messed up because of one thing or another (music), the game have been broken for the gamer indirectly in my opinion.

There are sometimes when I would be having mixed feelings about this but in the end, I know it's something that's likely going to happen. This is why I have started preparing myself for it sooner. It's sad to see the era of physical game's come to and end but that's what technology advancement brings to the table.

Yes of course, I still have most of my old memory cards. There's no way I would ever let them go so easily because they saved so much I can't recover from anywhere. It's more like half of my gaming memories stored and I can't let them go.

Have you ever considered to start a Gaming YouTube channel? This could be gameplays, tutorials or even cheats and hacks. Maybe even a mix of these.
Are there any content creators that specialise in gaming amongst us? What advice would you give to those considering making their own?
I've seen what you have been able to do with your own Bizdustry YouTube channel, even though its not a gaming channel, you surely have good skills to pull off running a good gaming channel. If I'm half as good as you, I'd take running my own channel serious.

If you're not the kind of person who doesn't like being involved with how another person plays his or her video games, I don't think such a person would even care to know how the newbie gamer is enjoying his stride in the game. For me, it's something that I enjoyed so much because I always like helping others get better. It brings so much excitement in me seeing them get good with the game and start enjoying themselves too.

Unfortunately, I haven't been any video games museum before. Honestly, I don't think that I have ever thought about visiting a video games museum, so it's probably the reason why it never occurred to me. Maybe one day, it's something that I will check off wishlist because right now, I do want to go see one for myself.

With my love for Soul's game, it's definitely going to be FromSoftware that I would love to play Elden Ring with. I wouldn't mind playing with writer George R. R. Martin who took the role of providing the worldbuilding for the game.

I’ll tell you, the 2000’s and up generations really fucked up the 80’s-90’s. They have zero respect for the holy grail of classicism.
This is absolutely how I call it and I can sure as hell tell you that they wouldn't care so much about any of those 80's or 90's shows, movies, or even books if they're made into a video game. I would say that they are wired differently from us.

David Kaye would definitely make it on my list of underrated voice actors who deserves more recognition than they are getting. Kaye voiced Clank from the Ratchet & Clank games, Sesshomaru from InuYasha, and Cronus from Class of the Titans. He had a big success from his role in the Transformers franchise, where he took part in Beast Wars. It was there that he voiced Megatron for the first time. He was too good in my opinion.

For me, if a video game is known to be bad, horrible and downright awful by all means, I doubt that I would be willing to play the game. The only reason I would be interested in playing such a game would be if it's a game that I've been anticipating to play for a long time. It was just like my experience with playing KH3, it was definitely bad and I never liked or enjoyed anything in it.

As far as my used of AI programs like ChatGPT and Google Bard goes, I haven't gotten to the level of trying to get game's coding information to create any kind of video games. In fact, I don't have any interest in coding or creating a game. It's why that thought never crossed my mind.

Bungie is one company that's very good at making extraction shooters games. From what I heard, they're bringing back IPs like Marathon into the mix in order to continue their expansion into the extraction shooter market. It can be tiring sometimes but one thing I know for sure is that I wouldn't be forced to buy or play any games I don't want to. So, they can expand how they like, it's not going to matter to me if I don't want to play it.

Yes, of course. I still make out the time to play some video games with my close friends who visit me in person or that I do go visit once in a while. We do play online games together too but whenever we can spare the time to hook up and play some co-op games, we are definitely going to make it worth it.

I have this really bad habit of only reviewing games that I don’t enjoy. I know I have to work on that, start giving good reviews on games I like too. But till this moment I only give honest negative reviews.
Haha, it's indeed a bad habit or should I say a selfish habit. Since you can make out time to review the games which you played that are supposedly bad, you should even have more desire to review the good ones that met your expectations.

I actually have a YouTube channel at the moment but it's not something I would call a gaming YouTube channel because it doesn't have any video games on it. I have thought about turning it into a gaming channel but I'm yet to make the decision yet.

It's not like I don't care about playing with a partner, I do and it can be fun but that's not like a must for me all the time to always look to play with a partner. There are some games I would love to play solo and vice versa with a partner. I simply enjoy playing both ways.

There was a hack I used for my Playstation 1 console game disc back then. It was using powder to clean. Apply small powder on the surface and use clean soft cloth preferably a cotton material handkerchief to clean it. It used to work for me then. You can try it and see if it works.
Ps. This is why I've upgraded to fully only digital games now.

It's just not only in video games but generally, life without music is very boring. So, imagine how boring it's going to be when you're playing video games with the gaming music and soundtracks? I wouldn't want to play video games like that because I'm very sure that there's no way I would ever enjoy such games.

Some years ago, I used to have a strong and strict budget for my gaming which I don't joke with. I would rather make sure to never over spend above my yearly budget for any reason whatsoever. It doesn't matter which games came out later, once I've exhausted my budget, I'll wait till next year for a new budget.

A few days ago, I came across the update that Microsoft is reportedly laying off the entire physical game department at Xbox. It came as a serious shock to me but in the end, I believe that it's something we should have expected to happen sooner or later.
How do people make money as full time gamers?

Over here in my country, some people make money from being involved in video game business of starting a gaming lounge. It's a fully set up video game store with all kinds of consoles and PC as well VR set up. The play games too with their customers. It's a very big business in my country.
