Happy Independence Day

To my United States readers, Happy Independence day!! To my British readers, sorry but you guys losing that war and women’s soccer thing. Seriously tho for my not American readers many of you don’t know how we celebrate this holiday, but may know the stereotype. We have a cookout, eat massive amounts of food, and the adults get drunk while the kids play. After that, we tell the kids how dangerous fireworks are while drunk adults set off small explosives and spark-filled objects. What actually happens is we have a cookout, eat massive amounts of food, and the adults get drunk while the kids play. After that, we tell the kids how dangerous fireworks are while drunk adults set off small explosives and spark-filled objects.

Ok so it isn’t really a stereotype if it is 100% true, but that is mostly what happens. I honestly do not even know why we do it. That being said, a lot of people will get hurt today as you may expect so please, be careful, don’t drink and drive, and have a sober person play with the fireworks. Best wishes and may the gaming gods watch over you.

They Come Knocking (2019)

They Come Knocking is the story of a father that takes his two daughters on a road trip about a year after tragically losing their mother to cancer. The road trip follows the same path mom and dad took years ago and ends where dad proposed. The intent is to camp for a couple days then spread her ashes. Its not a bad trip, until some mysterious figures show up.

These figures turn out to be some sort of demonic presence that wants them to come outside or be invited in, because for some reason demons need an invite like they are some weird ass vampires. They can also take any form they want from your memories. They use this many times in an attempt to kill or kidnap the family. They can also make you see things that aren’t there.

I won’t give much more away that that because I won’t tell you to not watch the movie. It isn’t a bad movie there are just some odd choices that are never really explained. For example there is no real explanation on why these things are here, why they are harassing this family or any of the others or why they ending works out the way it does.

That being said, the movie is a nice family story (tho it isn’t by any means child appropriate)  about how they can come together and endure through adversity. I personally would not watch the movie again, but I can’t say I don’t recommend it.The movie just wasn’t for me. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Jay and Silent Bob Reboot Red Band Trailer to Debut at Sand Diego Comic-Con

According to Filmmaker Kevin Smith, we will finally see a trailer for the reboot of Jay an Silent bob (played by Jason Mewes and Kevin Smith himself) at the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con. He also revealed the trailer would be 2 minutes and 30 seconds and the movie itself would have a 1 hour and 45 second run time.

For fans of his older films such as Dogma and Chasing Amy this has been a long time coming as the movie was announced quite some time ago as Clerks 3 fell through. I for one look forward to this, so good luck and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Some Devs Say to Pirate Games Instead of Buying From G2A

Normally gaming developers would refer you don’t steal from them and buy their games. It is this weird thing they like called making money. PCGamer however reports that many game devs, such as Rami Ismail and Ragesquid are outright telling people that if they can’t buy the game at full price, instead of buying from a key reseller just pirate the game.

See the issue is they spend a lot of time and money to investigate fake keys and other such issues, and it cost them more than you stealing the game would in the first place. Obviously you should always buy your games so these people make the money they deserve, but I understand where they are coming from. If they aren’t going to make money anyway, why should they lose more money when they have to investigate these things. So best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Writers Guild Accuses Agencies of Collusion in Cease-and-Desist Letter — Variety

The Writers Guild of America has hit back at Hollywood agents with accusations of collusion following a pair of lawsuits alleging that the guild is abusing its collective bargaining authority. With the bitter standoff in its third month, the WGA brushed off recent suits by UTA and WME, calling them “meritless.” The guild sent a…

Stadia Games Will Not be Cheaper than Console or PC Counterparts

Recently Stadia boss Phil Harrison told Eurogamer “I don’t know why it would be cheaper” in reference to the price of games. This honestly doesn’t surprise me at all honestly as digital games aren’t any cheaper than physical copies anyway despite obviously being cheaper to distribute. While it will be nice to be able to play on just about any screen, the idea that they were ever going to be cheaper is ridiculous to me. Besides the extra cost of creating this new format it, they want all the profit they can possibly get. While there is a free option and a $10 a month option (more details on that here ) and that will help, they obviously won’t want to cut into that else ware. Regardles, it will be interesting. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Live Action Little Mermaid Eyes Melissa McCarthy for Ursula

Variety reports that as of now that Melissa McCarthy is in early talks with Disney to play the evil sea witch Ursula in the live action Little Mermaid movie. McCarthy is a highly talented tho not always loved actor that got started with comedies and really became known to me while playing Sookie St. James in The Gilmore girls. I think if she ends up in this role it will be a love hate issue for many sadly, tho for me I am good with it and hope it works out. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory/

Game of Evolution Click & Merge (Mobile)

Game of Evolution Click & Merge is clearly a clicker mobile game, and not a good one. You start with a single celled organism and combine them together. Each time you do this they will make a bigger creature. They eventually turn into land creatures such as dinosaurs, monkeys and people. Each increasing more advanced creature will be worth more money.

The problem is the game is never fun. There is no challenge to it, and the only fun part is that the creatures do look pretty cute. The sound is repetitive as well, so honesty while this is a short review, you shouldn’t waste your time playing this game. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
