Red Mosquito

I'm purposefully holding off on what I assume is the last little stretch of Inside. I love this game, and loved Limbo, but wish they were about four times as long.

Hidden Folks is a fun little distraction. I hope they add more content for a while.

That's my initial concern for Andromeda. It sounds like it's approaching that point.

We're heading towards being plugged into a virtual reality persistent world for large portions of our day anyway...

I can't wait to RM in VR.

I'm imaging a large, but not-quite-large-enough elevator, with Pearl Jam muzak playing on low volume the entire time.

I'm really enjoying Battlefield One's approach to the single player. The vignette's tell compelling stories without overstaying their welcome.

Yea, it's one of the better campaigns I've seen, in that it teaches you the ropes of the game while keeping things interesting. The only thing it doesn't do a great job of illustrating is how vital team work actually is to your winning a match once you're playing online.

That would be pretty tough to do in a single player campaign with NPCs. I might be able to play some online matches later this week as a break from Horizon.

Sort of. Spotting enemies, both with R1 and with the Scout flares and spotting scope, are super important. It boggles my mind how many scouts are playing online now who won't shoot a flare onto an objective! It just makes the assault so much easier, especially if you are a Support player with mortars.

You mean, I shouldn't just run around and shoot baddies?

I was 2nd on the leader boards once last week!

Had a $50 gift card and Prime so I preordered Breath of the Wild on the WiiU. I'm not sold on the Switch nor do I have $300 to play it so "free" Zelda will have to do. Also ordered a copy of the Wii version of Twilight Princess. Now I have three copies of the game - GC, Wii, and WiiU.

When I was in GameStop yesterday they had a copy of Bayonetta 2 with B1 for only $50 used. Good deal for resell, or has the market finally dried up on those?

I think Bayonetta 2 includes a download code for 1.

If that's the case, why would it be worth that much? The code is more than likely used.

Oh yeah, GameStop.

OnPoint did a story on video games today. Haven't yet listened, probably will tomorrow morning:

Gamestop needs to go bankrupt.
