Ask Gauss


Sunday! The last day of January to boot! How are those new years resolutions going? Pretty much what was to be expected. Well think of it this way you are still here coming to read the blog. So I can appreciate that. As you should know today is all about questions so let's get right to it.

How many more WoW Expansions do you think we will see?

Honestly? As many as they are willing to still make and people will still be playing. The Warcraft Universe still has tons of things they can still do. Also with the genre of RTS basically just consisting of Starcraft there really is no reason to have Warcraft 4 ever be a thing. Now eventually we might see a free to play model, but even still I think that is a ways away.

What do you think of EA decision to skip E3?

Well really every jumps on EA and for good reasons. Most of their games are rehashed sports games with minimal improvements that promise to be better and better. Games they have released in the last few years not sports related have been plagued with bugs and problems by others in the industry. So why not have your own thing where fans can go to that is all about you to avoid all the bad press because well you have no competition at your own event.

Did you know they have Mega Man Headphones?

Well I do now and my life is forever changed. Thank you.

There you have it this week's questions. Hope you all got something out of them if it was your question or not. For those still waiting for my response stay patient I will get there eventually. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

The Flaw In The Fabric


Happy Friday everyone! Here we are at another end to the week wondering what is going to be happening on the weekend. It really is an interesting thought process. Before you get overwhelmed though I see you are here to check out this week's Reader Post, brought to you by Magemaer. As most of you know I am a big fan of Warcraft Lore especially when it comes to back story of how everything came to be as it was. So any theories on the topic always catch my eye. This is exactly what we get this week with a creation theory. So here goes.

Think about it.

Titans are not the actually creators of the universe. Regarding its origins, there is only myth and it states that Light and Shadow (Void) were there in the beginning. Titans are almighty beings that came to be really early in the universe timeline. They work on what's already created and improve upon it, bringing order and intelligence into what was mere being. Now the Naaru seem to be since the creation and in a way they represent it: they have a dualistic condition where normally the Light prevails. ("It is a facet of the Naaru condition - without the void, the Light cannot exist."—D'ore)

What about demons? They are described as twisted souls. Structurally they are the result of a (fel based) life corruption process. Morally they are a possibility as long you have beings with free will - they are free to choose evil.
Most demons are corrupted versions of what used to be a regular living being.

Now Old Gods. What do we know about them? Very little. They are known as "malignant beings of unfathomable evil", "entities of chaos and destruction". They are described as being closely connected to the Void, which itself is, as we've seen, connected to creation itself. While demons hang out in the twisting nether, which is between the Light and the Void, Old Gods are tied to the Void itself. While demons are somewhat connected to life (to its corruption) Old Gods are sometimes said to be neither living nor dead.

We so far have no idea of their origin or place in the creation. We know that they arrived in Azeroth and enslaved it, they weren't there in the first place. It was also hinted that Azeroth is a key place, we don't know why yet.

What about Sargeras and the Burning Legion? "Sargeras came to believe that a flaw in the fabric of creation set up an unwinnable battle against evil." As we know, his intention is making the universe better, but first he has to destroy it and for that he is using demons as a tool to his higher end. It is also mentioned that he thinks the universe has to be "remade without the underlying defect

What is this flaw in the fabric of creation?

a)Is it that there is a space between the Light and the Void where corrupted beings exist as immortals, always surging upon the worlds to corrupt and unmake? Is the flaw the unending possibility of demons?

b)Is it deeper? is it the dual nature of the universe? That the Void is necessarily part of it? And in the Void dwell beings of "unfathomable evil", possibly the whisperers behind the very madness of demonization?

c)Is it the existence of beings with free will? These beings are susceptible to whispers or to their own whim. Evil is always a possibility when there is free will, and this possibility can't be erased without erasing free will itself.

d)Something else entirely? 

What exactly is Sargeras fighting against? What is the flaw? And what is the status and connection of the Old Gods to it?

The overall impression is that Sargeras is a misguided (or not?) absolutist and the Old Gods are the quintessential evil of the creation. Are they as old as creation? Are they inherent to it as the Void is?

So far we've been told that their name is due to Azeroth's history: they were reigning over the world before the titans arrived. But what if the Old Gods were the rulers and the major force in the universe just before the titans and that's why they're called old gods, that is, old in relation to the titans that now shape the universe? 

Maybe, analogically to Greek mythology, the Old Gods are a pantheon of mighty beings antecedent to the titans, gods that were primal and evil, and were dethroned by the titans but not entirely vanquished. Maybe the universe as we know needed them to be during its formation and couldn't get rid of them afterwards. Or maybe they didn't play any constructive part in the creation: they were just unavoidable to it, like the void aspect of the Naaru.

There you have it. What do you think? Is it possible? Well you have the weekend to think about it while you are doing all that other stuff. So enjoy!

Totalbiscuit Disconnects


For those of you who don't know John "Totalbiscuit" Bain has announced he is quiting social media. Now if you haven't heard the sound cloud of him doing so it will be at the bottom of this post. Now why is it that I feel the need to post about this? Well Totalbiscuit is a huge part of the gaming community and one of the people that has enabled eSports to take off the way it has outside of Korea. So ya gaming wise he is a big deal.

One thing he has never been able to do is step away from the negative. I just assume it is his personality that he wants to provide content that everyone likes. I get that, but I realized a long time ago you like me or you don't. It would drive me insane and break me down if I didn't do this. This is what has happened to Totalbiscuit. In addition to that he has terminal cancer, and makes what he is dealing with that much more difficult.

The thing is he wants to still provide everyone with what they like and want despite the large possibility that life itself is giving him the short end of the stick. This makes him an admirable guy and makes his actual goodbye something people should listen to feel how much it hurts him that he would do such a thing to those who enjoy everything he does.

Even with everything he has going on he still puts out more content then 90% of the industry and will continue to do so. He really is a special breed of person for someone who has every reason in the world to give up he keeps going doing what he loves and what people love him for.

Now to those who are forcing him to make this decision well you too are a special breed of person in the total opposite way. This isn't just about bad criticism this is about trolling someone who is going through this in their life. I really hope whoever these people are feel good about themselves. I for one will continue to watch and appreciate everything he does and if I agree or not still appreciate it all the same. As gamers we should all thank him for his contributions and the ones he continues to make every single day.

Groovy

Hump day. Yes that means we are in the middle of the week, but even if you keep checking it will still only be Wednesday. When preparing for writing today I was thinking what else could be forgotten when it hit me why not just do a list of my favourite forgotten characters in video games.

5. Zool - Zool Series


He was a Gremlin Ninja. How awesome is that? Plus all the levels in the game look like Candy Land. The 90's had tons of Platform games this one just failed to make the cut probably because he was on the commodore 64, but if only eh?

4. The Ice Climbers - Ice Climbers Series


Sure they make an appearance in Smash Bros, but not the most recent versions of the game. Plus when was the last time there was an actual Ice Climbers game. I looked it up 1985 ya so I think they qualify.

3. Tiny - Tiny Tank Up Your Arsenal


So you are an adorable destructive robot who happens to be a tank. Sadly only one game was released, but that doesn't ruin the memories

2. Marina Liteyears - Mischief Makers


So when the world was switching all there games to 3D one chose to stay in the 2D bubble. Now what is weird is this game now is looked very highly upon, but at the time many wrote it off because of the 2D platforming. 

1. Earthworm Jim - Earthworm Jim Series


I don't know about all of you, but these games and his show were always fun to watch and play. If the gaming world could forget about the absolutely horrible 3D I think we could see the return of this guy.

There you have it this week's list. What are some of characters that you think the gaming world has forgotten about. As always let me know one way or another.

You Fail At Complaining About The Warcraft Movie If...


Fail Day! Yes it is here. Oh how wonderful a day it is. The day where it is all about making others feel worse so we can feel just that little bit better. Unless you are one of the ones feeling worse then we thank you for making us feel better, you are doing a great service. If you were not aware there is this movie coming out based on Warcraft, and there was a random TV spot thrown at us this past weekend. So plenty of inspiration of fail in this one.

You Fail At Complaining About The Warcraft Movie If...

  • Some how you didn't know there was going to be a movie
  • You say you have no interest, but will be first in line to watch
  • You keep saying "Lich King or Nothing"
  • You say you want them to do something "important" to the Warcraft Universe
  • You think there is too much CG
  • You question why Thrall is green
  • You are wondering where Thrall was in the latest TV spot
  • Wait there was a new TV spot?
  • You think they are not staying true to the games lore
  • You are complaining about how not all Orcs are bad
  • You are wondering where the Night Elves are
  • You keep going on and on how Varian is dead in the trailers

And Finally

  • You are wondering why I have said anything about a Movie when it is not about gaming

There you have it this week's edition of fail hope you all enjoyed it. And hopefully you all are excited about this movie as I am.

Starcrafts Co-Op Kerrigan & Karax

Monday! you know that day that comes after the weekend that no one is a fan of? Yes it is that day. With that we always need something to get us into the day. This is why Carbot always sets the stage and with a new series as well. So how could i not showcase that beginnings of epicness.



This is really exactly as I feel while playing Karax

Ask Gauss


Sunday! Yes your weekend is almost over. It is sad indeed isn't it. With the weekend ending though also comes the time for me to go through the questions sent to me for the weekend and pick a few to respond to. So why don't we just get on with that.

So the next two heroes in Heroes of the Storm, your thoughts?

I actually really like the way they were explained. I love the fact that the wizard is going to be easy to use, but have a very high skill cap. I enjoy mastering heroes that have this type of play style. The Necromancer has a lot of interesting abilities that are not only nostalgic, but also make him a true team fight specialist in my mind. Sure he won't be overpowering 1v1, but definitely will make his presence known in all team fight situations especially objectives. This in my mind is what a specialist should truly be, and I am excited for it.

Do you feel there is enough true decisions in Fallout 4?

I think the people who are talking about this look at New Vegas as the way the entire series has been. That game had a ridiculous amount of decision making and really in my mind it felt like too much. Really I think if you look at Fallout 3 you saw the results of your decisions always had an impact not just a decision for the sake of making a decision. Fallout 4 isn't quite as good as 3 was in this manner, but it still is a very good game.

Why isn't Uncharted 4 here yet?

I have been asking myself this question for a couple years now. Don't worry it will be here eventually.

There they are this week's questions and the answers to go with them. Thank you to everyone who sent something in. As always this would not be possible without your contributions and thank you all for your patience in waiting for me to respond to all your questions if they make it on here or not.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Time To Buff The Tank


Friday! We all love Friday. It is the last day of the work week. It is the day we can relax and get ready to enjoy the weekend. So many things to look forward to, including the Reader Post and what it is going to be about. This week I decided to go with one of the Starcraft flavour from Doncroft who is talking about giving the Siege tank some buffs to make mech play more viable all around. Have a read and let's hear what you have to say about it.

I believe most of us have been saying on and off how the Medivac Siege Tank pick-up-and-move ability is bad from a design perspective. Not only has it virtually removed the tank mode aspect of the Siege Tank and made the Siege Tank an immobile fly-and-drop cannon, but it also has undermined the core aspect of the Siege Tank's siege mode cannon design: damage, splash damage, and range in exchange for immobility.

For reference, I'm going to quote Mr. Kim's latest word on the subject of flying siege mode meditanks.

Siege tanks going back to tank mode when picked up by Medivacs does seem to be a solid suggestion. We agree with you that Siege Tanks gaining mobility did take away from what the unit is by design, and also agree that this change played the biggest part in making mech not viable in TvT. We can definitely add this to the next balance test map.

So here's the question that must be on everyone's minds right now:

Okay, Mr. Kim and balance team, you're going to take away the problematic siege mode drop, improve TvT, and fix a glaring design issue. Great! Now...what about the Siege Tank's balance?

Let's face it. From a balance perspective, this is a Terran nerf, and I think it goes without saying that right now the Siege Tank does not need to be "nerfed" at face value.

Therefore, this is the PERFECT TIME to consider buffing the Siege Tank in earnest, and I believe the best way to buff the tank is to improve its damage output. Many of you will recall in HotS, the Siege Tank received a small attack speed buff in siege mode. This did not help very much, because the Siege Tank's siege mode is much more about BURST rather than SUSTAIN. The first volley matters the most, since enemy units will usually either retreat out of range or advance into minimum effective range before most the tanks can fire a second volley.

Consequently, I think it's time to bust open the damage numbers on Siege Mode. I'm talking significant increases. Something like 35 (+35 vs armored). I don't actually think something that big would be uncalled for, especially considering the strength of lategame Ultralisks, the general weakness of mech vs Protoss, and the incoming balance nerf to the Siege Tank in the name of better game design.

A change in damage output vs armored would help out a lot in Terran pushes using the tank, as damage to all buildings would be heavily increased (70 up from 50 is an increase of 40%). Vs Protoss, this would help take down those pesky Pylons when a Protoss is being overly greedy. Vs Terran, this will make tanks stronger vs many units, including other Siege Tanks. However, considering flying siege mode Siege Tanks will be a thing of the past, I believe this will be a welcome tradeoff.

Well what do all the Starcraft players think? Something to think about over the weekend. With that make sure your weekend is a good one!

NX Could Be Ending The War


So I am not if any of you have heard, but this may actually be a thing.


So if you aren't understanding this could mean the new Ninendo NX could be played on your PS4. Something which is unheard of and almost impossible to believe. Now we have seen consoles work with the PC which is evident in Final Fantasy XIV: Realm Reborn. Never in my mind would I ever think that consoles would do such a thing.

Now is this a good thing or a bad thing if true? Well what it means is that more games will be playable on system which they were not intended for. This could be something very interesting indeed. Console Wars would be a thing of the past and we could all just get along and do our thing regardless of loyalties.

Now again this isn't confirmed by Nintendo yet so everyone shouldn't be jumping for joy, but it really is something to think about. Also if they are intending this is this something other consoles would actually allow? Would you think Sony would be ok with this? Who really knows. It really could be something very exciting or it could be just someone saying something because it is a dream of theirs and they want the higher ups to consider it.

So what do you all think?

I May Be Old, But I'm Not Helpless

Wednesday its here and we need to do a list. What will the list be about you ask? Well that is pretty simple. Heroes of the Storm is a game that a lot of my favourite franchises are all apart of. There also is tons of characters who are not yet part of the game, who I would love to see in it. With that in mind here are a list of characters I would love to see be added to Heroes of the Storm

5. Rory Swann


If playing him in Co-Op in Legacy didn't make up your mind for this it definitely should have. Incorporate his Mech play into the game and I think you are set with a pretty amazing specialist

4. Deckard Cain


Every year I hope and I will keep hoping until it happens. I have no idea what his kit would be or anything like that I just want to stay awhile and listen.

3. Winston


So Tracer has already been announced and would need some more Overwatch characters added to the game. I think adding Winston with the exact kit he has in Overwatch would be the perfect addition to the game. Make it happen!

2. Fenix


So he has already been announced he was going to be added, but delayed. What I want to make sure is that he is not added in Talandar form. That is my only request.

1. Cairne Bloodhoof


I'll say it again. He is my favourite Lore character from Warcraft and maybe even my favourite Lore character across all their games. Besides that he is a badass warrior, and that's what everyone wants to see is a Tauren owning everything.

There you have it my top 5 Heroes I want to see make an appearance this year in Heroes of the Storm. I am sure all of you want to see different or maybe some of the same, as always let me know.

You Fail At Patch 2.4 If...


Fail Day! Here we go once again to the excitement of everyone around you. The day where you can embrace the fail of yourself or others for the enjoyment of yourself or others. Isn't it a wonderful concept? This week since it has been a week since the start of patch 2.4 figured I would make it the theme of my post because everyone loves a good patch!

You Fail At Patch 2.4 If...

  • You don't know what game I am referring to
  • You have yet to try it
  • You cannot say Grey Hollow Island
  • You haven't checked out the new expanded zones
  • You don't already have a full stash again
  • You haven't started working on a set to enter a set dungeon
  • You deleted multiple characters instead of using the new season rebirth feature
  • You haven't taken advantage of the action combat feature being added to the PC
  • You were not aware that cosmetic pets now pickup gold for you
  • You haven't looked at the new designs for specific sets
  • You picked a new seasonal character class before looking at the buffs and nerfs
  • You did not know they removed seasonal only legendaries
  • You are excited to pick a specific class set for your season journey

and finally

  • You are still part of the crowd that hates of Diablo III because you think it is the cool thing to do

There you have it this week's edition of fail. Hope you all enjoyed it at the expense of others or yourself! Make the rest of your day worth while!

WoWCraft Illdone

Happy Monday all! So as most of you know I am a big fan of Carbot Animations. Just has a way of making even the simpliest things that much more entertaining. One thing which I don't think is appreciated enough is his way of taking an opening cinematic and making it his own. At Blizzcon we saw him do this to the new Legacy of the Void Cinematic, but that is not the only time he has done this. With Legion on its way to us eventually he has redone the iconic Illidan Speech from the Burning Crusade opening cinematic and it really is something spectacular. Have a watch and see for yourself.



I know, I know.

Ask Gauss

Sunday! Here we are the first week back and now it is time to do my first Ask Gauss of the year. Now you all can stop complaining that everything I say is about first, because well they are now all over with. So for those of you who are new to the blog this is where I answer questions sent to me throughout the week in a variety of ways all of which can be seen on the upper right side of the blog or you can go ahead and just email me at gaussafication@gmail.com. So why don't we get right to it!

How would you rate 2015 as a year for gaming?

We saw many great titles come out in 2015. Not nearly as much as people would like, but to say it was a disappointment that would be discounting some of the great games, which we all got to play. Now as I was talking about on Thursday there will be much more selection this year so the number of people who will be happy will be much more significant. Overall though if giving a 1-10 arbitrary score for the year I would give 2015 a score of 7. There were some great games just not a large amount and there was some waiting in between especially for those who have specific tastes.

Do you feel Starcraft needs to do more about balance for Legacy of the Void?

Now we just had a patch and sure there were not any major changes and I agree with it at the moment. People are still getting used to the new units and finding ways to deal with them. Do I think some things need to be adjusted? Yes, of course, I do, but it is the how which is more important to me. I much prefer changes that end up happening once rather than changes that have to keep getting tweaked over and over again. Leaving players to adapt and adapt. I like the open concept feedback that they are having with Legacy and I hope they stick to it.

Why did you feel the need to take a long vacation?

Well sometimes the world gives you too many Bagellords.

There you have it this week's questions all answered. Thank you to everyone who sent something in, and thank you to all those who have been extremely patient waiting for me to get back to them with the backlog that I have. This really wouldn't be possible without all of you so know I will get to yours eventually.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Pillars Of Creation


So here we are my first Friday back from vacation which means we have the first Reader Post of the new year. So what topic did I decide to go with? Well an interesting one because Warcraft Titan stuff always is interesting to me because of all of the theories that come from it. This one specifically has to do with the Pillars of Creation and there locations. So sit back and read up on Redfenix's theories.

So far we have 5 out of the 7 Pillars of Creation that are confirmed. Here are their names and their locations within the Broken Isles:

Aegis of Aggramar - Stormheim
Tidestone of Golganeth - Azsuna
Hammer of Khaz'goroth - Highmountain
Eye of Aman'thul - Suramar Palace
Tears of Elune -Val'sharah

I'm assuming that the other 2 relics will represent the remaining members of the Pantheon: Norgannon and Eonar

Where they are located I would probably guess would relate to the magical theme of the respective Titan. For Norgannon, I'd say it would be from the Suramar zone (being largely related to arcane magic use of the Nightborne). It might be some Scroll, Book, or even Disc (keeping with the theme, right?)! For Eonar, I'd say her Pillar of Creation relic would be in the Emerald Nightmare (perhaps Xavius is trying to use it or corrupt it). That relic might be a staff of some kind, if I were to guess.

As for Elune, I think it's curious that she is a part of list of the Titan relics that represent the Pillars of Creation. Elune as a deity has largely remained mysterious in origin, but a huge part of Night Elf culture (and mentioned in Tauren myth as M'usha alongside An'she as the "eyes" of the Greatmother). Maybe she was a Titan servant of Eonar (whom I'm assuming is the mythical Greatmother the Tauren speak of) and she represented the power of Astral Moon-Light magic through the manipulation of the Arcane (like all Titans) as opposed being wielded through purely "divine" magical means such as Paladins and Priests do. Perhaps An'she was her counterpart/partner that represented the power of Astral Star-Light magic.

Maybe Elune's power on Azeroth was the Well of Eternity and subsequently the satellite moonwells that spawned from it. Maybe Elune IS the Well of Eternity. Those waters could be Titan's blood for all we know. Her life force might be forever bound to the planet of Azeroth, with the magical waters constantly being replenished by the light of the moon/sun. Think about how the Dark Trolls that settled along the waters of the Well of Eternity became the Night Elves, with softer humanoid facial features and upright posture similar to the Dwarves, Humans, and Gnomes. The same can be said of the Zandalari Trolls. Zandalar is the closest Troll settlement to the Well of Eternity and the in-game Zandalari look closer to their Night Elf cousins than any other Troll tribe on Azeroth. Coincidence? I think not.

I think Elune represents the Titan's effort of trying to find a balance between their metal and stone constructs and the pure organic flesh beings created by the Old God's Curse of Flesh. The result? Night Elves, Humans, Dwarves, Gnomes, Zandalari Trolls, Pygmies, Goblins, and all the anthropomorphic humanoid children of the respective animal Ancients/Loa of Azeroth.

So there you have it the first Reader Post and it makes you think. Thanks to everyone who sent something in as this would not be possible if you all did not contribute. Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Year Of The Gamer


So I have been receiving a lot of feedback with the normal year end and year beginning sort of crap that you always get. Not to say what you all have been writing is crap, but that is using crap as just a lot. Now I am going off on something that is making less and less sense. Basically a lot of the mail I have been getting lately has to do with will 2016 be a good year for us gamers. The short answer to this, well yes.

Now why am I saying that? Well it is pretty simple really. Games which are solely for computer don't really have a set cycle. They are good and they are bad depending on the developers. This is the way it always will be because they deal with the technology at hand. For console games it always takes time for games to first off be released for the next generation console and then for the developers to actually get used to developing for the consoles. This is why I have always favoured a long console cycle.

Just think about it 2014 saw hardly any games released for the current generation. The media was plagued with why were they released when no games worth buying were even coming out. We even saw previous generation games coming out when the new generation had arrived. 2015 saw improvements in game selection but the "great" releases were still few and far between. 

Now in 2016 I had trouble making my list for my top 5 because there are so many great games on the horizon and I am beyond excited to get my hands on. I know a lot of you are just as excited, but are cautious with the series of delays that have been happening in recent years. I believe we are finally to the point where we can be excited. We will be getting at least 1 title if not more every month, which will keep us busy and our wallets struggling.

2016 to me is going to be looked back on as one of the best years in the gaming industry for years to come. I hope you are all just as excited about it as I am.

I'll Be There, Sifting Through The Wreckage

Here we are in the middle of the week getting ready to make a list. This being the first list of the new year how could I do anything, but the games I am most excited to play come 2016. Now I must say there are a lot of great games. Some of them my taste and some of them not. So I assume there may be some disagreement with this, but then it is my list and not yours.

5. No Man's Sky


So this really is the biggest game ever. That is the world that you will be playing in. You are exploring a universe seeing things for the first time in your travels. This game even has one of the most amazing features ever that if you are the first to discover something you get to name it.

4. Dark Souls III


So the series which lives by "Do you like dying?" is at it again. With some new ways to customize your characters. Now there will be less places to visit in the 3rd installment, but to compensate for that the makers might each place much larger.

3. Final Fantasy XV


So this is a game that has taken awhile to get here. I figured I would be playing this last year, but it wasn't meant to be. We have seen a playable demo so it looks like 2016 is finally the year. As always I am excited for anything Final Fantasy

2. The Last Guardian


So with the way I feel about Final Fantasy it is weird to see something above it. The Last Guardian though is something special. Something that just feels like one of those games which is an experience in itself.

1. Uncharted 4 A Thief's End


So I am an Uncharted fanboy I know it. I love the Nathan Drake character and I cannot wait to get my hands on this game, which I have been waiting to get my hands on since the initial teaser trailer was released. We finally have a release date and I am ready to get the show on the road.

There it is. The games I am looking forward most to play in 2016. I am sure your lists might be different, but there is no arguing with mine.

You Fail At Being Ready For 2016 If...


Fail Day! Here we go another year and even more ways to fail. If there is one thing that is consistent it is that people always find a way to amuse me in the ways that they fail. So 2016 is going to be no different, but to start the year why no go into how people are not even ready to be failing in 2016 yet.

You Fail At Being Ready For 2016 If...

  • You are not aware of the any of the games coming out
  • You don't think there are any good games coming out
  • You think there is just a focus on sequel games this year
  • Your wallet is not prepared
  • You have not been binge watching trailers
  • You have yet to pre-order anything
  • You still don't have a next gen console
  • You think an xbox one counts as a next gen console
  • You still have yet to play some of the must play titles from 2015
  • You cannot wait to play the Final Fantasy 7 Remake this year
  • You think you will continue with a normal social life if you get all the must plays this year

and finally

  • You are still working on 2015

There you have it this week's edition of Fail. Hope you all enjoyed it and will be ready for this great year in the world of gaming.

Life Of An Assassin

So I'm back my holiday was pretty good as I hope yours was as well. Truthfully I am still in the recovery stages but I am pretty sure that is the way with everyone. 2016 is a big year for gaming so many great things are on the horizon let's hope the blog can keep up with it all. As always you are all the ones that make this possible. It is your passion, your ideas, and your critism which pulls everything together so don't forget that.

Now to get on with why you are probably actually here is to see if the blog was back and what is being showcased. Well Assassin's Creed Universe strikes again with this tribute to a life as an Assassin. Enjoy!



And years to many more posts to come in 2016
