    What game are you best at?

    I'd say anything with Mario in it is a natural thing for me. I have the same bunch of friend since high school (I'm 32 now) and we occasionnally still sit down in front of an SNES/N64/Gamecube/Wii/Wii U to play Mario Kart/Smash Bros/Mario Party/Mario Tennis etc, and I pretty much always win (and...

    What remains of The Beginner's guide

    That's a nice video you made there! I love being told a story, but I must admit Dear Esther got kinda boring because it has no gameplay. I thought The Beginner's Guide, even thought it doesn't have much gameplay, was able to keep me interested by having a narrator getting me involved and guiding me.

    What remains of The Beginner's guide

    I thought it was very targeted at and older audience who lived the same problem as the author. I fought with "addiction" to outside validation and it got me into a downward spiral and I ended up alienating a lot of my friends in the process, so this story resonated with me to my very core. But...

    What remains of The Beginner's guide

    I know I already made a post about walking simulators, but this time I just wanted to talk about those 2 I played this weekend. What Remains of Edith Finch and The Beginner's Guide. Wow. I was just blown away by them and how the storytelling kept me wanting for more. They both share a lot ...

    Upcoming Games Featuring Female Protagonists

    Now that's funny! It the same for me. My girlfriend is not a huge gamer, but she likes watching RPGs and what she likes the most is designing the character. She often ask me to go with a female too. She usually sticks around the fist 3-5 hours and then I'm stuck with her design for the other 50!

    Upcoming Games Featuring Female Protagonists

    I think it's great that female protagonist have a bigger place in today's games. I just hope it's not just a passing phase thing. For my part, whenever I play an RPG, I go 50% on the time with a female, alternating between male the other 50%. I told someone just a couple days ago that I played...

    What Game Series Deserves a Reboot?

    I've always felts like the original Max Payne should deserve a remake. The way the narration pulls you into this dark, gritty New York city is still something I rarely saw since its release in any other video games. I remember being so impressed with the bullet time and the gunplay. Man, I just...

    I don't like Bloodborne and I feel like telling it!

    I did feel a bit frustration playing The Witcher 3 at the beginning, but something about the characters, the story, the graphics made me want to press on and be better. I still don't understand why people say Bloodborne's graphics are great though. I thought they were blend and all the same...

    I don't like Bloodborne and I feel like telling it!

    I didn't say unfair. I know and I understand how it rewards players with the skill and patience for go through all of this and I can respect that. And I know about not playing, which is exactly what I do. Like I said just above, I just like to stir the pot a bit and create discussion. Hell...

    I don't like Bloodborne and I feel like telling it!

    You're right about that! No sweat, man :) . I just like to discuss things in general. I'm curious about what makes people tick.

    I don't like Bloodborne and I feel like telling it!

    That wasn't meant to be an attack toward people who like those games by the way. No need to take the discussion down to wisecracking and insulting. I can have a discussion with people who disagree with me.

    Is Capcom "Capcompetent" Again?

    I don't much care for Capcom games anymore and it has nothing to do with their competency. I just feel like they stopped innovating and started to cash in on their franchise a long time ago. Yes, RE7 was a good game, but honestly, not the most novel concept after all those indie first person...

    I don't like Bloodborne and I feel like telling it!

    Hey there. I wanted to start that thread because I've never felt like my opinion was a popular one and every time I tell it out loud, I get thrashed and almost threatened for being such a despicable human being. I don't like Bloodborne. In fact, I don't like any "soul" type games at all. Yes...

    What Are You Playing? - The Official Thread

    I have finally played (and finished) The Witcher 3. I must say it held up to the praise and hype I've read about it for years. It's immersive, the writing is incredibly good and the characters are fascinating. What really struck me though, is the amount of entertainment I got for the amount of...
