5 Games That Had an Impact on me

This is a simple list, but an important one for me. It is just 5 games that had an impact on my life, whether it be how they changed me as a gamer or that I played them in an important time in my life. So with no real order, enjoy my list.

Mortal Kombat is one of those games that changed the face of gaming in a way, so when your mom decides to let you play it, it changes how you view games. At the time was viewed as the most violent game on consoles, and to this day I can’t figure out why. The blood didn’t look realistic at all and the fighting wasn’t anything you couldn’t see on a Saturday morning cartoon.

Phantasy Star 4 Sega Genesis Classics this is one of those games that again I got on accident, my parents bought it for me randomly and truly introduced me to the role-playing game. I  had played one or two before then but this and my next one were the first 2 I had ever truly owned, and they changed my gaming life forever.

Shining Force 2is the other game my parents bought me that day and sent me on a search to find the other games in both series, a search that took decades. One I don’t regret at all. I still pull these games out once a year or so and relive my childhood.

BloodBorne review.

Look anyone that follows the blog knows this game was going to show up. This one is special to me for an odd reason. See years ago I was at @torstenvblog house like I would spend many of my days and he was fighting Father Gascoigne for probably the 30th time. Now I had no interest in the game because I had played the original release of Dark Souls and it was a broken mess and had no interest in playing anything else from Fromsoftware.    However watching him struggle made me wonder, does he suck or is this game that hard? So I bought it a few days later. It wasn’t long before I beat Father G, and told him how I did it. From then on it was was a race between us both to finish the game first. It was the first time in our long friendship we played a game side by side like this and challenged each other to see who could do it first. I won, but not by much and I think if he wasn’t working so much he would have done it first.

We later co-oped the game and had a blast and felt it was challenging but fair.

GoldenEye 007 is a classic FPS from the N64 era that I would play with my friends for hours trying to unlock cheats or just doing random stuff in multiplayer, like using rocket launchers only in closed areas or proximity mines. The game, however, does not hold up well at all. I tried playing it a couple years ago and it is a nightmare to play now. It does, however, hold a special place in my heart for the memories. So I hope you enjoyed my list, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

 

Anna And The Apocalypse (2017)

Anna and the Apocalypse is a weird movie. I went into it thinking it was just a Christmas horror comedy and ended up watching a musical. At first, this annoyed me but admittedly the songs are kind of catchy.

The story is about a girl, Anna of course, and her high school friends just going about their lives as normal. Then one morning, boom zombie apocalypse. They will have to fight their way through town and meet up at a bowling alley then to the local high school in order to be escorted to safety.

The story is pretty basically honestly, but as a musical, the story is there to just give them a reason to sing and it serves its purpose well. The songs are catchy and if you are into musicals (admittedly I am not) are easy to sing along with.

The movie is fun and you should absolutely check it out, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Picker 3D (mobile)

Published by Rollic Games, Picker 3D is quite simple. Use a horseshoe-shaped object to snag balls and push them into a pit that raises it up so you can move on. You can get some power-ups that will and make it easier to collect them. The game isn’t really all that hard, but it was kind of cool to see this thing turn into a bunny and other assorted things.

The game is free and kills some time and doesn’t kill you with ads so I don’t see a reason not to give it a shot if it sounds like a bit of fun. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

How Shia LaBeouf Became a Box Office Star Again — Variety

Call it the Shianaissance (or don’t, we would understand), but Shia LaBeouf is igniting an indie box office revival. LaBeouf further proved his on-screen bankability last weekend as his autobiographical drama “Honey Boy” kicked off above expectations, garnering $288,824 from four venues in New York and Los Angeles. That haul marks one of the best…

Death Coming (PS4)

Death Coming is a cute little puzzle game about a reaper that enlist the help of a recently dead person, you. You have a job, use the dangerous objects lying around to kill unsuspecting people. Different levels will require you to kill different people, and besides them, you will be required to kill a certain amount of people to kill to get medals and move on to the next level.

The way you kill people changes based on the level and can be as simple as knocking over a flower pot or as complicated as making a phone ring and removing a manhole cover or making something explode or even convincing a guy to leave a room and opening a secret door so a guard enters a hidden room so he gets caught by a jealous boyfriend visiting his hidden love.

The game isn’t very long but it is cheap and honestly is good for a laugh so it is worth picking up. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Kerbal Space Program 2 Delayed

As reported by PC Gamer sadly Kerbal Space Program 2 has been delayed from the fiscal year 2020 to the fiscal year 2021 for Take-Two Interactive. This may not be as bad as it seems but it may be brutal as FY 2021 goes from April 1st, 2020 until March 31st, 2021. That is a pretty big gap, to be honest, so if it is just a few months we are pretty ok, but it could be a year. Tho it is more important the game works. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Happy Veterans Day and Remembrance Day

As an American today for me is Veterans day but I am aware my Canadian friends have Remembrance day and I believe in the UK as well and I did not want to leave my friends out and I feel that all vets, regardless of home country are brothers and sisters. So today, enjoy the holiday my brothers and sisters, regardless of where and who you served with, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
