Billy Madison (1995)

Today is Adam Sandler day people. Well for me. I don’t know what the hell Torsten is doing if anything. He may be vanishing again for a bit.

Anyway this is the story of rich kid Billy Madison, who is as dumb as a box of rocks, a word he coincidentally can not spell since silent letters don’t even get added to the word as far as he is concerned. He did graduate high school tho since he dad paid his teachers to pass him.

One day while drunk with his friends and chasing an invisible penguin around on dirty magazine day he discovers his dad is retiring from running his business and his douchbag friend is taking over. Unless he can spend 2 weeks in each grade and pass.

This movie came out back when Sandler playing the same character was still amusing to every one it seemed tho admittedly I still enjoy his movies. The antics that follow suit range from childishly making fun of a kid stuttering while trying to read to strip study sessions and even throwing water on his pants in a heart touching moment when a kid pees his pants to save the child from being eternally mocked and made fun of.

Admittedly the movie is not very good. Its simply fun for people that enjoy that style of comedy. The story is simplistic as is the dialogue and at no point is it deep or thought provoking. It simply exist. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Beyond Oasis

Sega Forever strikes again with another classic for the Sega Genesis in Beyond Oasis. Once again this is a pretty faithful recreation. The controls work as well on the touch screen of a cell phone as well as it ever did on the Sega controller.

Graphically the game looks good and I didn’t hit any issues with slow downs or lag or anything like that. The sound also sounded good. If you enjoyed the original and want to play again now is the chance. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

WWE 2K18

WWE 2k18. Have to be honest, been a very long time since I bought a wrestling game. I played WWE 2K17 for the Xbox on a free play weekend and I have to say. It was brutal. The game was not good. I hated the reversal system, it wasn’t very responsive at all. In fact I almost did not buy 2K18. Some friends said it was trash some said it was great. I basically flipped a coin and picked it up on sale for the PSN sale.

I have to say the controls are a huge improvement over last years. The reversal system is far easier to use and more responsive. They aren’t exactly easy by the way, it will take some time to master or even truly get the hang of it.

Graphically the game looks good, best looking wrestling game I personally have ever played. That being said it is far from being a modern marvel. Its simply an average looking game. There are also some minor glitches where characters pick people up but aren’t quite touching people and things of that nature.

Another thing that many modern gamers may hate is it seems like almost everything is locked from the start. Most moves, around 80 characters, entrances hell even the advance entrances are locked for my career mode. You have to buy what the game calls loot crates to unlock them. This is done with in game currency earned simply by playing the game and is earned in every game mode as far as I can tell. Its a throw back to the old days when you were rewarded for playing a game and not having a fat wallet.

Now as I said earlier, I don’t buy wrestling games often, so many of these things are new to completely new to me. For example walking around the locker room my friends character is just hanging out sitting on a a crate. Another friend was standing next to a wall after I won the NXT title. I didn’t even know this was a thing but apparently its not new. I think many of the flaws were lost on me since so many of these things were new for me. So coming from a guy returning to the WWE gaming universe after a very long hiatus, now is a good time to return. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you greatness.

Coffee Town

I randomly came across coffee down with my girlfriend about 2 two weeks ago and for probably the first time very legit said this looks stupid and refused to watch it with me. Then I kept forgetting to watch it when I had time. Finally I had time to do so and honestly I wish I did it sooner.

The movie was surprisingly good and even deep. The story is about a guy that works from home and uses the local coffee show names Coffee Town as his office. His friends come to visit him at his “office” ,one works across the street and the other is quite possibly the worst cop to ever exist.

When the shop is being considered for renovation into a bistro that would also serve alcohol the friends try to stop this by staging a fake robbery to save their hang out. What follows is an amusing story of love and loss that also covers some controversial and even philosophical subject matter.

I won’t spoil it for you but the movie is worth checking out, best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Elite Dangerous, Sol And Aliens

That picture? That is Mercury in Elite Dangerous. After hours of grinding Federation Ranks I now have the required permit to go there. And all i got was some photos and a silly trophy. I also swung by Venus

I may go back for the rest at some point but not quite yet, because now i have decided to go find some Thargoids. Well to try. I grabbed my ship, flew over to the Pleiades Nebula to start looking..have not found any yet, but when I do I will be sure to snap a picture. Wish me luck, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The Sims 4 Console

The Sims 4 finally comes to console. Having never played the PC version I can’t confirm if the claim that its the same on both PC and console is true, but it is the most complete version I have played on console.

Graphically as expected the game is beautiful and unlike other games in the series on console I didn’t experience any real slow downs or frame rate drops on PS4 which I really expected. The sound was also better than I expected so those were nice surprises.

The game play itself is pretty much the same as all the other Sims games. You create a character, get a job, forge relationships and live your life while doing things you normally would. I chose to make Darth Vader and turn him into a pro gamer since I assumed he could use the force to cheat.

All in all any fan of The Sims should pick this up and if you are curious now is a great time to jump in, tho most of you will want to wait for a sale. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Justice League (2017)

For those that want a short spoiler free review, the next part is for you

Justice League was a fun movie, however do not mistake it for a good movie. The story is rushed there aren’t any surprises but the action scenes are nice. Also stay until after all the credits are done.

Now for those that want a more in depth but spoiler free review, the next part is for you.

As I said above, the movie is fun. I will grant that happily. Aquaman steals the show with his antics and attitude. A close second for me was Flash tho I don’t recall him ever actually being called that. He actually owns up to having never been in a fight. He has just pushed a few people and ran away.

Batman is, well he is Batman and him and Wonder Woman do Batman and Wonder Woman things both great actors that did their job well. Cyborg however just comes across as a plot device. He seems to have no purpose except to move the story along at the end.

Steppenwolf as a villain is bland, he is never truly given any real explanation for existing and his whole reason for coming back is hey Superman is dead so its safe to return and take my revenge. Tho hey its been 5000 years. Superman has been on earth for like..30 of them. Not sure why now is the perfect time. Plot hole I guess.

The story also feels extremely rushed which is weird to say for a movie that clocks in at 2 hours (1:59 technically I think) and the worst part is if it were 3 hours I don’t think that feeling would have changed. Far to much stuff simply needed to be explained.

In the end all I can say is, feel free to go and have a fun night at the movies because the movie is fun. But please do not make the mistake of thinking the movie will also be good. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
