Any gamers here? I've been playing a ton of Spider-Man: Miles Morales on the PS4 as of late. I've been hoping to get my hands on a PS5 soon, but you know how that's been with the scalpers out there making it tougher to get it. I've also been trying to get back into Fortnite, but eh, idk if I will stick with it for much longer.

Anyway, name off some of the games you're enjoying currently.

    Man I’ve been playing FANTASIAN pretty heavily on my iPad, it’s made by the creator of Final Fantasy and plays just like one. I’ve been needing to get into the Last of Us 2 but I just haven’t made the time for it. The older I get the harder it is for me to dedicate myself to a video game. I want a PS5 but I’m not really too interested in $70 games…how do you like Spiderman? I felt like the first one was a generic sandbox game.

    Been playing Madden NFL 21 some more before the new one drops. Isn't it dropping on the 20th? I sure hope it's an improvement over the last Madden, because that was a huge letdown. Even though I'm playing it, I still feel let down about a lot of the stuff they did with this game.

    Other than that, I've been trying to get through Bloodborne, but it's been a slow process.

    Never heard of it, but I am into Final Fantasy so may look into it a bit more. :)

    Ratchet & Clank is awesome. Haven't played the new game yet, but I've heard nothing but great things. How does it compare to the last game in the series?

    Madden has been hot trash for awhile now...they release the same thing over and over again. I wish the NFL would open the license up so that we could have the 2K games again.

    I've been in and out of different games. The last game I really got into was Fallout 76 but some of the updates made me stop playing it. That, and the glitches and bugs that were never fixed lol

    Bethesda has been determined to bury the Fallout IP in the dirt. Fallout 4 was trash and then they make it worse with a dumb ass live service POS.

    PS4: Skyrim mainly lately
    PS3: AC: Rogue - trying to platinum it
    PS2: GTA: Vice City - that soundtrack mmm mmm mmmmmmmm

    PS1: Final Fantasy 8 - came down with a case of gamer nostalgia.

    Planning to get a PS5 either next Fall/Winter or sometime in 2023 which is when I'm thinking they drop GTA 6

    How is AC Rogue, was it one of the ones that released after the reboot with Egypt or is it the mobile one?

    Rogue was released after AC 3 and 4 in tandem with AC unity. Rogue is like the final chapter from 3 on PS3 and Unity was like the follow up to 4 on PS4. All predate the games you're referring to. Which I think you're referring to Odyssey(maybe? Not sure). I havent beaten an AC title since 4. So I'm super behind in the series gaming-wise.

    Thanks for the info. I was talking about Origins. They switched the gameplay up a bit but it’s lipstick on a pig.

    Origins ok yeah i always forget about that one. But then I thought that was the one a lot of AC fans felt that Ubisoft left a lot of plays on the field and wasted opportunites to make that one the classic it could have been, wasn't it?

    That’s odyssey which was in Greece. People like the pivot they made with Origins but felt they let their foot off the gas with Odyssey and were really disappointed with Valhalla.
