Let’s Look At: Rise of the Tomb Raider on Xbox 360.

Yup I bought it on last gen’s system seeing as I have yet to take the leap to an Xbox One. This game was actually going to be the one to force my hand to pick up an XBOne but once they announced it was coming to PS4 next year, and being released on 360 at the same time as the XBOne version, I decided to just pick up the 360 copy and wait for next year to get the “better” version. The PS4 version will likely include DLC and other stuff I’m sure.

Fallout 4 – Dogmeat, the Master of Unlocking. (Easy Cryolator)

Is glitching not working for you? That’s cool. Dogmeat is actually a master at unlocking. Here he is breaking into that pesky Cryolator case for me and letting me get it early on in the game. It’s not cheating if HE unlocked it right?


Rise of the Tomb Raider Graphics vs the Original on Xbox 360

So after playing the new Rise of the Tomb Raider I kept thinking that the original looked better. I think it does, maybe because the original was made for the system and the new one was made for the next-gen systems and then down-scaled. Either way the new one looks fantastic if not a little washed out compared to the old one.

Top Five Video Game Openings

There is nothing quite like firing up a new game and being treated to an amazing opening. In fact my favorite part of starting a new game is being pulled into its universe by a well crafted opening sequence. Many games try to do this well but only a few really knock it out of the park.

Here are my top opening sequences. Prepare to disagree! 🙂

I want to talk about Metal Gear Solid V

And it’s my website so I will. 🙂 I just finished the game which includes the true, or “secret” ending and I have thoughts. Be warned that there will be spoilers. Lots of them. Game changing ones if you haven’t played the whole game yet.

So if you haven’t finished the entire story yet then just move on unless you don’t care about it being spoiled.

So here’s to the next 100 and hopefully many more hundred after that!


Top Five Average Games

I have played a lot of games in my time. From the lowest reviewed shovelware to the top tier blockbuster games and lots of games in between those. It’s that segment of games that I want to focus on. The games that were good enough not to be a throw away, but not quite reviewed as well as you may think.

So what do I mean by an average game? I am going to talk about the my favorite games that may not have been the most well received either critically or commercially. My base requirement is that it should have a Metacrtic score of 70 or less. If a game was reviewed well, but didn’t sell that great I will save those for another article. This one is all about lukewarm receptions for otherwise great games. This is just my opinion of course. So let’s jump in!

Top Five Dreamcast Games! – Throwback Thursday

I have always felt the Dreamcast was just a bit ahead of it’s time. It had a short life but still managed to make an impact that can still be felt today. Even if that impact is just the conversations that people have as they fondly remember the little white console. I still play mine from time to time and decided to talk about my favorite Dreamcast games. This is not really a top game list, or a best seller list. It’s simply the games I enjoy the most on this system.
