Return of The Living Dead: Rave To The Grave

This is not a good movie. I am going to get that right out of the way. The dialogue is horrendously corny, the story itself is beyond ridiculous and mostly made no damn sense. Seriously, I am not even going to explain it. Okay, that is a lie, I have to. Kinda my thing. Basically, the guy finds a container, the container contains a drug that creates zombies, the guy gets killed by zombies. His nephew finds a different container the uncle had hidden because his uncle had 3 of the damn things hidden in a room in the attic nobody knew about. Yup, dude lives in the house for 18 years with his uncle and parents, nobody knew about the hidden room. They use these containers of zombie making mystery substance to make drugs that they sell.

This was not a good movie, it was, however, fun. Don’t think about the story or crappy script both of which seem to have been made by students on a drunk weekend. That is what makes it fun, a nice chunk of the movie is a drug and booze filled parry seen of breast and senseless violence like an 80’s slasher flick. The movie is not good. It is however fun. If you like 80’s horror films that make no real sense but are fun this is for you. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Why A 2019 Final Fantasy 7 Remake Would Be Too Little Too Late For Me

First, let me make this clear, I don’t hate Final Fantasy 7. I actually beat the original U.S. release about 3 days before it came out when a friend of my brothers broke street date and gave it to me the day they got the game in and instantly restarted it. I bought it again for PC and beat that in an age when you still bought games on disk, then bout it again on PS4 and platinumed it. This is not a post about how I hate the game. This is also not a post about how I am a purist that is mad about all the stuff they are supposedly changing. The game is a remake, not a remaster. Stuff is going to change.

All that said, the game was originally announced in 2015 which even the director Tetsuya Nomura admits to being too early at this point. That is 4 years ago with almost no real information given. The actual only truly notable update from the company itself in recent memory was that it moved from an outsourced company to in-house. Even the 2019 part is pure speculation based off reports that Square Enix is expecting a large source of revenue for the end of the year hinting at a huge release.

So why is it too late? Honestly, it is because I can’t care. I can get past the fact that they will undoubtedly change many of my favorite aspects of one of my favorite games or the fact that the game will apparently be episodic the same way Final Fantasy 13 was and I will end up buying multiple games to play a single game I played years ago in what will probably be an attempt at a massive cash grab. I am however open to the idea that they will be simply combining all the FF7 games into one and that is why it will be so long, but even that will be kind of weird depending on how it is done honestly.

Combining that with what has already been a pretty substantial wait and I truthfully just can’t care or be excited anymore. This is after the roughly six-year wait after Kingdom Hearts 3 was first announced and waiting so long for Final Fantasy 13 Versus it became Final Fantasy 15, none of which were worth the wait if we are being 100% honest. Not to say they weren’t great games in their own right, but after that kind of wait they could have been better and should have been. So no, for me even if Final Fantasy 7 Remake comes this year, it will be far too little and far too late. I’ll buy it eventually I am sure, but they can wait. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Stellaris Console Edition (PS4)

The console version of Stellaris was always going to be a bit odd to me. A true grand strategy game on the console is a dream come true for many, but the mouse is a natural fit for them, the question of controls were always going to be there. Certain things were a given tho with Paradox Interactive.

First, the game was going to be pretty, and of that, there is no doubt. So it is no surprise the game is exactly that. The game looks amazing whether you are zoomed out looking at the map or zoomed in watching ships blast each other into space dust. The sound is equally amazing. I won’t spoil it for you but I highly recommend eventually turning the tutorials off completely, because the voice of the robot was hilarious to me.

The game itself is quite simple in concept. You create a species that just started traveling the stars and expand what will hopefully become a massive space empire. As you explore you will find new species to interact with. Some will be other space-faring races and others will be less developed. Each decision will help grow your empire or lead it to a path of destruction. From allowing slavery to free travel and open borders with other species. You can create your very own federation with your allies to crush stronger enemies or try to avoid conflict altogether, the choice is up to you.

It truly does come down to how the controls function with Paradox has honestly nailed. The D-pad lets you bounce between most menus pretty easily with the usual X and O being to confirm or cancel as usual. Obviously, I would never say it is equal to having a mouse to use but damn it is pretty close. Having played it on both PC and PS4 I can honestly say my biggest issue is that it is based off a much older version of the game. However, if you are a console player that has been wanting to play a grand strategy game but lack the PC to do it, here is your chance. Stellaris is one of the most easily approachable and it functions very well. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Deadly Detention (2017)

Deadly Detention is a horror movie about 5 kids, a jock, a nerd, an outcast, you know just imagine horror movie breakfast club. Seriously, one of them will talk, one will yell about the principle catching them and giving them detention. Then a psycho ghost kills their principle and they must find a way out.

First, I have to mention this. Each kid is basically the worst imaginable portrait you can picture of a millennial but they aren’t even old enough to be millennials. Also, the school is in an old prison where someone died after the prison was closed and the last prisoner was abandoned. Also pretty much all the people in detention were set up and did nothing wrong. Aside from the movie just being campy as hell, which normally I like the movie is just bad. The characters are stereotypes of stereotypes and not even good ones and they essentially took as many cliches as possible and rolled them into one. I got very little if any enjoyment out of this movie and it is best avoided. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Eden-Tomorrow – The Review — All The PlayStation You’ll Ever Need.

This specific scene in Jurassic Park always had a special meaning. “Nature will find a way.” Think about that for a moment. “Nature will find a way.” But what if what Dr. Malcom was saying all along, even after it was all said and done, that people still did not listen and still tried to…

Sega Forever Phantasy Star 4

To the surprise of basically nobody on earth PhantasyStar 2 of Sega Forever has become the Phantasy Star Collection, Containing 2,3 and 4 of the series tho 1 as always is missing. As longtime followers know I am a huge fan of Phantasy Star 4, so while being able to play it on a cell phone is kind of cool it isn’t a huge deal to me as I have it on my PS4. The real question is how does it work?

Well the sound is damn near identical to its original release, possibly a bit better and graphically it looks good and honestly, the controls are mostly fine. A little bit of trouble with moving around and hitting the wrong direction but that easily can be my fat fingers as opposed to anything else. The real issue is unless you have no other choice there is no reason to play it here, you can get it on all 3 major home consoles. There they have better graphics, sound more options, better controls, and a bigger screen. If you have no options this is a perfectly fine place to play it, but honestly, it’s not the preferred option. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
