Red Mosquito

Gonna try out The Division 2 beta tonight. Enjoyed the first one a lot.

I've finally found a groove in Shadow of Mordor. Enjoying that one.

Finished Chapter 5 of Celeste last night. This game is brilliantly designed in that it frustrates you but it's incredibly rewarding once you figure everything out.

Found a torrent where someone had ripped the first two arcade Mario Kart games, now I just need to figure out how to get them playable.

Sadly it doesn't look like two-player is doable. Wish Nintendo would release the game for online play, maybe download only.

How is Tetris?

It's Tetris

Metroid Prime 2. This is quite the labyrinth. Knowing where to go is sometimes a mystery. I can’t imagine beating this one without a guide / FAQ. MP1 was less confusing.

Yes, especially with the dark world thrown in too. They got a little cute with backtracking in that one.

MP2 is considered the worst of the Trilogy, right?

Crackdown 3 is fun as shit. Not a great game by any means but a lot of fun.

I've been playing a lot of NBA 2k19 lately. Probably because there has been no basketball for a week.

Anthem is a bit of a mess. It's pretty clear it was released way too early. EA does it again.

The combat and gameplay is great. So much potential. Hopefully EA allows Bioware the time to right the ship.

They should have just waited until the summer to release it. Especially with Apex Legends being so successful.

Yep. Apex Legends is a EA game too. Just doesn't make sense. Very confusing.

I picked up the Borderlands Handsome Collection for PS4 on a sale last week so i'm taking a little trip down the lootgasm rabbit hole. These games actually hold up pretty well on this gen of hardware.

Horizon: Between Two Dawns. It's weird. Maybe it's cause of my recent immersion into Redidemption but this is really hard to get into hard. The way you move about the world jumpin and rubbin up against things unrealistically hop hop roll? It's weird. And the characters when speaking move like animatronic robots at Disney land. Or your local science exhibit. It's not as good as I'd hop hop hoped. But I got it for like 12 dollars so who's going to complain at me. Not me. Maybe the combat is worth it. I don't know. Maybe it will be when I played it more. If I do. When we will see.

The combat is 100x better than Red Dead. Keep playing. The world and lore really open up.

Also, it may be unfair to compare other open world games with Red Dead 2 in terms of character, cinematics, and immersion. Try playing and Assassin's Creed afterwards. It is rough.

Smash Bros on the Switch is ridiculously good.

Yeah, Horizon has an incredible story that is meted out perfectly. It's really great.

I'm playing Dishonored 2 right now, and between this and Prey, Arkane should be really proud. Both games are just fucking stellar.
