Cuphead was one of video games that I ended up rage quitting when started playing it for the first. It was definitely difficult and frustrated me so much that I had to stop at some point. But I later managed to get back to the game after some time. 

Unfortunately, I haven't picked up Just Dance 2024 yet.  Honestly, I'm not sure if I would be purchasing the game for this year as I'm looking at cutting off some games that I don't give much playing time to but keep spending money on them.

It’s pretty cool, I heard they are working on allowing instrument controllers so it’ll be like rock band. I think I’d get more into if they did that, but I’ve been enjoying it still.

 

the prices for in game instruments is outrageous though.

It's the only way they make money through those microtransactions in the game. I would say that Epic Games is pushing it more than they used to now with how they are focused on these microtransactions.

For me halo 3 custom games was the golden days, the current halo with the custom maps and modes is as close as we’ve been since halo 3 custom match lobbies all night with the og homies, at least for me.

Personally, I also believe that Halo 3 was among the best release in the franchise and it was very successful too. The game's graphics was very good, with a solid storyline and great controls.

I played Fortnite Racing when it was first released and found there was quite a bit wrong with it. Fast forward to a few nights ago when I played and they have fixed so much and it is a lot of fun to play now. 

If you have not played it recently, I would recommend it since they fixed a lot of things. 

Honestly, those issues with the racing mode mode in Fortnite really discouraged me from playing it and as a result of that, I stayed out of it since then. I didn't know they've fixed it now. I may likely check it out once more. 

Angry Jeo have always been my guy when it comes to getting cool game reviews. He did a very good one on Redfall which he didn't leave anything untouched.

It's been a long while since I rage-quit a whole game, but I did rage-quit a mission in Horizon Forbidden West because the mission had some really dumb platforming stuff going on.

Most of the time recently, difficult bosses doesn't make me to rage quit games anymore but what does it too fast for me is buggy controls. There are so many games that I had to rage quit as a result of that. Alan Wake is one of them.

I lost all faith in 343 when I watched them patch Halo Wars 2 for around 6 years straight with no new features and it never once became a remotely balanced RTS game.

AmiGaming channel I follow on Facebook had the same opinion about how bad Halo Wars 2 was and I couldn't argue with it at all. 343 Industries treated the game it didn't matter in any way and that's why it came out the way it did. 

I was handed my butt playing in the semi finals of the champions league tournament in Top Eleven Football Manager. I taught my team was ready for the smoke but unfortunately the opponent was miles out of my league. It was like Real Madrid playing Sunderland 😂.

Seems like Halo's golden days are quickly fading away, MS might want to get the series into better hands.

I completely agree with you on this assessment. It's not just Halo franchise that's facing the same thing, CoD is suffering as well. Microsoft have serious job on their hand to save those game franchise. 

Top Eleven Football Manager isn't a game I found recently but it's the first video game which I wouldn't waste time to recommend for anyone who's interested in playing football games. I have been playing it for 7 years and counting now. 

I think that I've said it on several occasions it's only Top Eleven Football Manager that I play mostly on my smartphone now. I just played a friendly match with a fellow manager to keep my players lively for my upcoming Champions League match coming up at 8:25 PM today.

Depends on how much money it is making, if its sales are poor, then you can bet the plug will be pulled.

True! Everything about whatever any video game company is doing is to maximise their profit. Once any of their game project isn't meeting the needed target, they are definitely ending it and redirecting resources to other viable projects.

It still needs a lot and sadly I see no way that it will ever feel like a great battlefield game.  At best it is turning into a pretty good shooter as a whole, but really lacks a defining experience.

This have just turned into the case of how the mighty have fallen because I never saw this happening with the game so soon. Funny enough, the same thing is happening now with CoD. If they are not careful, it's going to be in ruins sooner than later.

I think they look tacky personally, not a fan of them and flashing lights like that can just trigger my eye problems as well. But each their own in the end.

Yeah, that's very correct. I have heard another gamer complain about the same thing with the shinning and flashing of the lights being too much for his eyes to cope with and not trigger his anxiety. Whatever is convenient for someone is how they should set up and play in my book.

Some games are just better with friends, you know? It really comes down to what you like and the particular game you're talking about. Playing with friends provides the gamer with emotional support if part of the chapter is too scary. Honestly, I am not really afraid of playing alone but sometimes it's nice to play with someone else.

True, there's no arguments in this because truly most video games are meant to be enjoyed playing with friends than playing all alone by yourself. But some games are designed to be played alone and in this case, looking at horror games being the point of attraction, there are some people it's too much to play alone by themselves.

It’s weird you can still play regular battle royal split screen on Fortnite but not the new game modes, custom game modes, or team rumble. At least on Xbox, it’s play duos with my kid and was disappointed we couldn’t play Lego or racing together

It's still very unfortunate that's the only downside of the new game modes in this for now. Seriously, I was hoping Epic Games would have brought back the ability to have split-screen play since they had it discontinued but it doesn't seem to be among their plans yet.

Anyone still playing this? I want to pick it up again, but the game blue screen my old PC lol.

Well, I'm still playing it once in a while. You can play with up to 8 players in the Arena mode. Although, there are some game modes which are only available during special events.

I was actually really looking forward to this sucks to hear about it being canceled.

Been really impressed with creators are making on forge. The maps and game modes are fun and unique 

Exactly! Looking at how big the Halo gaming and even movie/TV show franchise have become, there was definitely a very high expectations on the battle royale game project. I seriously hope they bring this back from wherever they are dumping it off to.

How are you liking it?

 

For me it was some Hearts of Iron 4

Honestly, it wasn't so much. It was more like a hit and miss with the game. I just had to keep up with because it was COD and being that it's one of the best shooting games ever made. 

I'm currently playing Marvel's Spider-Man 2. 

Well, I would say that everything depends on the kind of video games someone is playing, how often he's playing and how he's playing (Completionist habit). There's a way you would play games and it would never have any negative effects on your mental health. 

Personally, I have also played Lego Fortnite several times since it was released last year December. It was a great addition into the game. For me, playing the survival mode have been a more awesome experience than the creative mode. 

My kid brother had access to all my gaming consoles. He was the only brother I had, so there was no way I would keep everything to myself. He became my playing partner even though he was a lot younger, but he was good at playing. 

Even if every other country is already ready for it with their internet capacity and capabilities which I'm very sure they're not at least for now, my country will never be ever be ready for it because our internet still feels like what's used in the 70's. 

The cancellation of this Halo battle royale project Tatanka isn't a good precedent yet again by 343 Industries. It's now more like they are never sure about what they really want to do. For a game project to be in works for 2 years with so many fans waiting in anticipation for it but it's been thrown out is really really bad.
