Man, that's fucking crazy. Though obviously it's a cutscene.

I'm thinking of downloading Knights of the old Republic on my tablet (it's free on amazon) I've never played it before, but I always hear people raving about it.

It's a great game Tommy, but I don't think it aged well. It's really hard for me to pick up and play now. The mobile controls are very hard to get a feel for.

Yeah I tried it a few years back and couldn't do it. It was just way too antiquated.

Actual 24k gold in honor of Zelda's 30th anniversary. Unofficial but beautiful.

Started Everybody's Gone to the Rapture last night. Didn't realize it was more than a 2-3 hour game.

I'm playing Left Behind know (the spin-off from The Last of Us). It's great to be back with Ellie, she's such a realistic character.

Hey MD, I've hoped to find you online for Rocket League a couple times lately, but we can never seem to connect. I'm still down for this. I'm out of town for the rest of the week, will try again next week.

Word. I went a week without even touching the PS4 so that might explain it. Good to hear you are enjoying Left Behind.

I was reading the blurb of this book and I can't tell how it isn't Last of Us. I didn't play it though so maybe i'm missing something.
In the future, most of humanity has been infected by a variation of a fungus known as the Ophiocordyceps unilateralis. The infected, referred to as "hungries", quickly lose their mental powers and feed on the flesh of healthy humans. The disease spreads through blood and saliva, but can also spread through spores created by the fungus, which needs an unknown trigger to be opened. The few surviving members of the human race either live in heavily-guarded areas (such as the Beacon) or else roam in packs living off the land. The latter are called junkers.

I mean, it sounds exactly like The Last of Us. I'm surprised the author didn't get sued.

Quantum Break day. So excited.

Been playing The Wolf Among Us lately. Never played any Telltale games before, but I'm liking it a lot.

Arkham Knight is really, really cool, though I understand why people didn't like the batmobile stuff. These are just such fun games.

What do you think of it so far? I really enjoyed it when I played it but for the life of me I don't remember much about it.

I'm enjoying it but the player movement is way too slow. Should be about 25-50 percent faster. Seems like a cheap way to conserve framerate.

Id say knight is a good class if aren't sure what you want. I prefer making mainly strength builds so I pick warrior.

There are too many choices. I feel like I want to experiment a bit with magic but I want to be quicker ala Bloodborne. You can change your character however you want as you level up, correct?
