Games coming up to watch for!

I will keep this list to 2016. Modify and update throughout the rest of the year. No particular order.

1) Final Fantasy 15 - Sept 30th
For any Final Fantasy fan this is a must. This is truly a next gen final fantasy game. I got my hands on the demo through psn and it looks absolutely gorgeous. If you are not familiar with Japanese style roleplaying games or final fantasy just be warned they are always very grind heavy. Always expect at bare minimum 100 hours of playtime for a play through of a final fantasy game.

2) Battlefield 1 - Oct 18th
For first person shooter fans you want DICE's first fully next gen game (that isn't terrible Star Wars shooters we won't name). This one looks to be epic putting you on World War 1 battlefields. Will be very interesting to see DICE's direction in gameplay mechanics and how much emphasis on single player campaign they will have. Either was this will be a top 3 shooter for the next 6 months.

3) Mafia 3 - Oct 7th
If you love Grand Theft Auto you may like Mafia. Very similar open world style story telling. Having to do with the criminal world. With a bigger focus on building up a criminal empire. You would recruit members and go on missions to control your turf.

Gameplay

Call of Duty Infinite Warfare - Nov 4th
I wouldn't normally put a Call of Duty game on a list like this. However it looks like they really invested in the single player campaign for this one. They opened up the combat to include the Entire Solar System. I have no idea how this will play in single player and Multiplayer will be caos. But I am officially intrigued.

No Man's Sky - Aug 9th
The entire galaxy procedurally generated. Huge emphasis on exploration. Done in the art style of 1970's and 80's pop sci fi novels. I am really on the fence about this game. Could be groundbreaking could be a bore fest.

Elder Scrolls Online!

   Lately I have been playing ESO on PS4. I have to say it has been a great experience. It is every bit as good as past Elder Scrolls games. So well written and beautifully crafted. The quests are full of story and life and lead you expertly across the land. The many different stories are not only written well but voice acted amazingly. Best voice acting in a open world RPG I have every played. I am having a ton of fun.     I even stuck my feet into the PVP. Even helped take a keep. But for the most part since I didn't have a group to run with and I didn't have a mount yet I found PVP to not be as rewarding as questing. I will try again though this time with a mount  and some friends if i can find a good pvp guild.     I also the other night did my first dungeon. I am a sorcerer and flip between destruction staff and restoration staff skills. So I was the healer for the dungeon. For sure not as easy to heal as any other MMO. Directional AOE h...

It is ok to hate a Game!

                These days ever game franchise and developer and publisher have their faults. Some have many. EA has a lot and Bioware has really squandered some good opportunities like SWTOR. Their are a lot of things about Bioware game that a lot of people don't like. It looks like EA is going to do everything it can to continue its aggressive DLC policy.       With all that said it is important to look past all the BS. Look at what is put on the shelf and ask yourself is this game worth the price. Will I enjoy this and will it make me happy. Even with all the things I don't like about this game or this company will I still enjoy this? Don't listen to the hype or the haters. Just ask yourself what your opinion is on this game.      For me at this point Bioware games (including SWTOR) have hit every sweet spot in what I am looking for. I know without even looking at ...

Game Reviews!?! Worth reading?

             It should be pretty apparent at this point that by and large Mass Media Reviewers/Critics have huge problems. The problems are varied. They are paid to lie, they have a vendetta going into their review, they feel they can drive more traffic to their review if they nitpick the negatives and probably the biggest but least talked about is the reviewer either hates or doesn't understand the genre he is reviewing.                  Big Triple A official or professional reviews cannot be trusted. To often it becomes apparent that the reviewer is basically blowing smoke at us for the sake of keeping friendly with the games publishing company. Sometimes they are just outright paid for fluff pieces (allegedly). If the reviewer is mid to low range in popularity he/she is probably not going to bite the hand that feeds them. EA and other companies have shown thy will blacklist certain reviewers from review c...
