Gravel PS4 Review

gravel

Its not often I play a racing game, not that I have anything against them, they just aren’t my deal. This one tho caught my eye since admittedly the the trailer had good music and dirt racing is more fun than NASCAR to me. That actually sums the game up pretty nicely tho. The game has numerous race styles, tho I liked spinning out in the snow. Yea I sucked and spent most of my time drifting into walls. The graphics looked great and the music was fun. The car had plenty of car options with different paint jobs. There are certainly racing games with more customization out there make no mistake there, but this one has enough to get the job done and there are enough races to make the price tag worth it. For fans of the style, its a must by. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Chrono Trigger PC Review

CT2

As you may remember this game got some a lot of flak when it first got released, more on that here Chrono Trigger PC..Sort Of. After spending some time with it I won’t say some of it wasn’t deserved, because it was. But it was quite a bit exaggerated as well. For example graphically the game did have some issues. The filter they used was a bit off and some of the trees looked off. The user interface however wasn’t as bad as the steam reviews would lead you to believe. You could use the mouse sort of like a touch pad where you old down the right-click and walk around, but I found that on accident. You don’t have to use that. Using my PS4 controller worked perfectly fine and gave me no issues at all.

The game played perfectly fine, the story is there completely and the combat works just the way you think it would. Getting used to what buttons to hit took a few minutes but being a console gamer playing a PC game I always have that issue. If you never played this game before, I have no issue recommending this one. However if you have a Nintendo DS or 3DS the DS version is the best version to own. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Ghost Recon Wild lands

ghost recon

Ghost recon Wild lands is the story of a team of special operatives trying to take down the Santa Blanca drug cartel. The map is massive and full of vehicles to drive and helicopters to fly. The map is broken up into sections and each section has at least one cartel boss in it. The game play itself will put you and 3 computer characters or human players to deal with different missions in different ways depending on how you choose. If you want to sneak in under the cover of night while strategically killing everyone feel free. Or run in and just gun people down. It is also possible to just steal a helicopter with a machine gun and circle the base killing people.

The game can be a bit repetitive however as much of the game revolves around simply searching for collectibles to level up or for info then killing a boss then doing the same thing in the next area. I did have a lot of fun and with friends it is even better. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Fortnight is Currently Twitches Most Watched Game

fortnight

This week something interesting happened, according to Rolling Stone Fortnight became the most watched game on Twitch with an average of over 140 thousand people beating out both League of Legends and PUBG. Not bad for a free game i’d say. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole (2nd Opinion)

south park

South Park, the Fractured But Whole is a direct sequel South Park, The Stick Of Truth. You may remember @torstenvblog covering South Park: The Fractured But Whole. I didn’t get to play it myself until recently and I won’t say I am disappointed, just that I preferred Stick of Truth. That being said the battle system is still turn based but now takes place in a grid system. Moves now have an area of effect. Each south park child also now has a sort of class that determines the moves they get.

The story itself starts as Stick of Truth ends when Eric finds a reward poster for a cat and decides his team of super heroes, Coon and friends, need to save the cat and collect the money.  From there it is typical south park shenanigans with fart jokes, swearing and all around weird shit going on. If you enjoyed the first game or the show in general you will enjoy this one. You also don’t have to play Stick of Truth to enjoy Fractured but Whole tho it does help. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Injustice 2 (2nd opinion)

injustice 2

Now some of you may remember when @torstenvblog covered Injustice 2 awhile back, and with Injustice 2:Legendary Edition coming out I figured I would give my opinion of the game.

The first injustice was great with an amazing story, but after the story there wasn’t exactly much to keep doing unless you were heavily into fighting games. This time around however, we have multiple endings. On top of that there is a sort of RPG element to it where you can level up your characters and equip them with new gear as well. This adds quite a bit of replay value, but they didn’t stop there.

The multiverse alone is a game all in its own. Every day or sometimes every week you can take quest to help heroes from different places save their homes to earn loot or experience. Some require you use different characters or be at some level. This so far may be the best fighting game I have played ever and it is highly recommended. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

RUMORED: Battlefield 2018 has Become Battlefield V; Will Return to World War II — All The PlayStation You’ll Ever Need.

When EA confirmed that Anthem would miss 2018 due to a new Battlefield game, rumors began swirling that the series would be returning to the Bad Company side of things with the latest installment.

Tony Hawk Speaks Out on Pro Skater Series

download

Many fans have been clamoring for years about wanting a new and good Tony Hawk Pro Skater, despite 5 being a train wreck when it released. Or at the very least a remaster or even just turning the servers back on for the old ones. Something to let people back on their boards for the games they love. I am no stranger to the series myself, tho I am far from being the hardcore fan many are. Sadly after Neversoft closed back in 2014 it seemed the series may have been done, but now that Tony Hawk has confirmed he no longer works with Activision whom also owns the rights to Tony Hawks Pro Skater it seems the series may be dead and gone for good. More on that can be found here. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
