I legitamtely don't know anyone who actually does listen to mainstream media seriously that isn't either an old boomer or a Gen X person. As soon as both those generations die out I think most of the old media outlets will be fucked.

On an off topic, have you found another game to jam on after finishing up God of War?

Im on The Last of Us right now, only because it was in the bundle. However, i'm not really digging it and may give up soon. I was eyeing up witcher 3 because it was on special. I think the special ended and I may end up regretting not getting it

Really? What don't you like about it? I think you're the first person I've talked to who wasn't a fan of that game. And, Witcher 3 goes on sale pretty often so if you did miss it you probably won't have to wait more than another month or two for another good sale.

If you have PS Plus (Their subscription service to play games online), you get 2 games for free each month from PSN, by the way. Wasn't sure if you knew about that or not. I got quite a few games that were great just from having a 12 month subscription, though once you run out you don't have access to those games until you renew. Which sucks some soggy monkey scrotum for me since my shit ran out, like, 3 months ago. Boooo.

i got a membership with a console purchase. I don't see much benefit other than the free games but i hear it is pretty cheap so I may do it just for that. It is a bit of a gamble.

I'll continue on Last of Us. I tend to give up on games pretty easy. I think transitioning from a kick the crap out of everything you see game like GOW and then needing to stealth a bit kind of hit me the wrong way :P

I trust your judgement so I'll keep going :)

The Last of Us has such a good story I definitely think you should stick with it. It got its penis sucked hard for a reason. I myself am not a huge stealth fan either, but it's a good game and I personally didn't regret playing it.

It's $60 USD for 12 months, which is why I haven't continued mine as having a spare $60 right now isn't something that happens often. But, while I could afford it I was happy to pay it. Here's some of the games I got and really enjoyed from the service, just to give you an idea of the good stuff you can get from time to time.

  • SOMA
  • Friday the 13th (Not a great game, but it was a fun multiplayer experience for awhile. Made a fun video out of it at least awhile back)
  • Destiny 2
  • God of War III
  • Dead by Daylight
  • Heavy Rain
  • Bloodbourne
  • XCOM 2

And, those were just from a handful of months of having it. Some months can be really lame and you get crap, but others are great and you get some fun games that are fucking great.

But, like I mentioned, remember that you lose access to those games if you don't buy a membership. When I'm not broke and can spare it, I plan on trying to renew since they cucked me out of finishing a bunch of games I had backlogged.

I really disliked The Last of Us too. The story was awesome, but the gameplay...ugh, don't get me started. Maybe it's because every gaming website and reviewer slobbered all over themselves to proclaim it game of the year, but I didn't see what all the excitement was about. Aside from the story involving killer fungi, there wasn't anything we hadn't seen before. What am I missing, @deadspace? :)

Not gonna see me arguing too much for the gameplay aspect of the game, as I think it does the stealth and shooting mechanics very standard for the time it came out. I think they took the right approach and having the combat be kind of guerrilla warfare tactics instead of just blow their brains out, as I think most zombie games in the last decade of have sucked a fat nut with overplaying the fuck out of that style.(Like, that World War Z game that looks a Chinese bootware version of Left 4 dead, for example.) But, I went back and played the remastered version and definitely wasn't as interested in the gameplay as I was with the first time around.

However, the voice acting, story and visuals were popping some fat ass boners throughout the entire game, and that's what makes it a good game. I can deal with standard gameplay mechanics when the story/characters/visuals are all solid. They do character development so god damn well throughout and have one of the better stories told in decades as far as horror games go. The setting/backdrop of the game is gorgeous with how it was designed, and the zombies had pretty nifty designs to boot.
