John and Lauren Gaming!

                         This could be the biggest game of 2018. I feel like it is a big step in gaming bringing a new gameplay mechanic and fresh ideas. The hype around this title is similar I feel to Mass Effect when it started getting reported in the gaming magazines back in 2007. It almost feels like the developers Quantic Dream have sat down and discussed how they can take the decision making trees in modern games to the next level. Let us take the deciosn making aspects of say a Bioware game and kick it up a thousand times. Make a game where decision making is the main aspect of gameplay. The manner in which every level or scene can play out in so many different ways and instead of waiting for your next playthrough to see if you can find a better option they figured out a way to redo your choices in real time as they are unfolding in the story. The game looks tense and well written. Graphically beautiful. I will be...

             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...

                                                Combining the styles of a great t.v. show and one of my favorite video games equal one of my most anticipated games coming soon. Sons of Anarchy is a show about The Outlaw Hero that can sometimes even play the Anti-Hero exhibiting every hard nosed rough trait that I sometimes wish I had. That summarizes the lead in the show. The rough a tumble Jax is basically a modern retelling of many Clint Eastwood cowboy characters.  Then you have the video game that Days Gone is clearly is taking some inspiration from in The Last of Us. The gameplay and storytelling look very similar to that title and that is a great thing.  The Zombies are re-envisioned it seems and done in a way not done in a Triple-A title that I have seen. That is in Fast moving herds. Think Dying Light but instead of 10 to 20 think hundreds if not...

              I don't care what anyone says this is the best game I have ever played. Ok. Maybe just top three of the last couple of years. I personally love the story. The art is beautiful. The Sci-Fi aspects are truly a wonder. Truly feel like an away team. Solving the galaxies problems. From scanning the environment around you to set up bases and colonies. There is rarely a moment in which I don't feel like I am in a Sci-Fi book. The people in this game are fleshed out and interesting with a good variety. They do a good job of making you feel. The story has really well-written consequences. The combat is amazing. I love third person cover shooters and that is what this is with some flair. It does it very well. I have zero complaints so far. I can't wait to play in this new galaxy over the next two games.
