I never thought God of War would be a franchise that flirts with humor, but the new one is hilarious.

Atreus: "Brok? But how did you..."

Brok: "NONE OF YOUR f***IN BUSINESS!"

Wherever I'm standing atm
Not sure how many fans of his are on these boards, but RIP TotalBiscuit.

Screw cancer.
I thought he was Jim Sterling for the longest time. Then, even though I eventually started watching JS, when TB died my brain reverted back to that and I was like "Oh wow, I was just watching his Jimquisition the other week."

The former EA Bioware employees who basically said "I'm glad he's dead." are really something. That company seems to have had a lot of toxic people working for it.

Then again if what the guy alleges is true "That TB purposely aimed his fanbase at game developers knowing that his fanbase would dox, harass and attack them" then idk if I can blame him. I suspect that the EA guy is embellishing or flat out full of crap. Based on his comments, he seems to skew reality a bit.

It's astounding how ugly gaming is when you look behind the curtain

Been catching up on the Assasssins Creed series. Just finished Unity this morning. Awesome game. Now getting into Syndicate. Finished Rogue and Origins about a month ago.

Gonna take a break once I finish Syndicate before Odyssey comes out. Don't want to be worn out by the series :laugh:

Gaming community is trash and cancerous sadly. Best to tune it all out and play with small groups of friends, but we know this already and to not pay attention to much of what people say. It starts young too.

Syndicate was one of my favorites, though I’m also drawn to the Victorian era.

Been going old school and playing Freelancer on my laptop.

How do you update the rosters in the Show? Gleyber Torres and Justus Sheffield among others arent in the game

Roster update should automatically download. Once it is downloaded, you can save a version on your console. When you start a franchise, you should get the option to choose the type of roster.

Also, Torres will be in the game, but Sheffield will not be. He has not played in the majors and won't be there until he does. I believe Operation Sports makes legit rosters with prospects, and it is updated throughout the season.

Currenly new to Fallout 4. Simply beautiful. I really love RGPs and loot-heavy games. So this one hits right in the spot.

Might have to get back into Hearthstone. I went away for some time, considering to heavily invest my gold and dust to buy some proper decks.

Other than that, I play SMITE. Anybody else here? :laugh:

I find the combat in those games so repetitive that it's hard to not get worn out. Also just the general gameplay of climbing towers got old for me after the first 4 games. I heard Origins changes it a bit though so I may check that one out.

Microsoft somehow had the best E3 confrence by a landslide. Sony lost all momentum with thay 20 minuet intermmision thing they did and Nintendo did not show nearly enough. I'm super excited for the new Fire Emblem and Smash looks fun but not enough new games.

The challenge for AC is that sometimes you don't have room to breathe. They keep cranking them out and as a result you don't always have a chance to take a break.

I haven't played Origins yet because I simply want to try other stuff. Between remasters and annual releases and spinoffs, it can be a bit much.

It’s a rebuild.

And if those little shitters don't hit the damn towers for 45 minutes, I build 6 of these.

I gave fallout shelter a go after all the stuff about fallout 76, and all the dlc for F4 was on sale on PSN so I WAS going to reinstall it and get back into it... then I discovered that I'd deleted all my save files for it.

Bugger playing through it all again. It was decent though.
