Updates and Buys Vol. 1

The gaming world is staying quite busy and Im staying busy too which makes it difficult to stay up to date on everything. So far I havent fallen behind on anything too badly. I am however trying to get caught up on blogs on here along with everything else since I have the free time to do so.

PS4 wise there hasnt been much updated except the addition of a few new games to line up and a weird picture of an egg. Game wise only 2 of the newly added games have really caught my attention and those are Blacklight and Primal Carnage. Blacklight is a free to play first person shooter which seems to have some MMO type elements to it and Primal I have no damn clue what it is but the name enough has me interested. Ill post a updated chart on the games at the bottom. The other thing that recently was released from Sony that everyone seems to think is linked to the PS4 is this egg thing

 

  Some are saying its a game, its the ps4, or its something to do with a studio called Ovosonico. Im not really gonna lay any guesses in it because I more then likely will end up wrong. Anywho other then my lilttle caution Im gonna give yall about facebook thats all folks when it comes to the PS4.

This lil update Ive been excited to make for some time. Some of you may know Im a pretty big fan of Dynasty Warriors and I was bummed about DW8 not getting a NA release date. Well I guess all of the fans over here raised enough hell to get their attention. They are gonna be releaseing a english dub of DW8 overseas. Now an exact date hasnt been given yet but Im just happy to know its happening. I was afraid at first we wouldnt get it or we would get a download only verison. While download only can be okay I hate it at times because there are several ppl who use the internet at my house and its gets slowed down because of that. I did look up on an import verison and it was around $90, no thank you.

Now finally I can do my recent buys part of my blog, I cant post pics of the actual game case itself like all you cool cats because I dont have a cell at the moment but online images will work just as well!

I went on BestBuy.com yesterday and they still had Darksiders 2 for 14.99. Since it was still there after seeing it 2 days ago I knew it was a sign I needed to buy it while I could for that price. Its still $40 to $50 new/used at Gamestop. I originally had it when it first released and I loved it. The Darksiders series is practically a love child between Zelda and God of War. It mixed both game types well and I absolutly love Death. I think I like him more than I liked War!  Im excited to start playing it again, and get back to where I was.

Silent Hill has been for the most part a good franchise but it has had its ups and downs. I played my first Silent Hill game years ago on the xbox. I played SH2 and loved it. I remember one night we sat up playing it and nearly scared our parents to death because we got so scared at one part we screamed bloody murder. Ever since then I have remained in a way attached to franchise. I played both 3 and 4 and while I loved 3 for its story and characters 4 I was a bit disappointed on. I wont say though that it was the worse thing ever made though. It wasnt as bad as a game as everyone seemed to try and make it out to be at the time of its release. Atleast thats how I feel about it. Silent Hill Homecoming wasnt aweful either but it could have def used some tweaks and improvements before it was released. Anyway, after my journey with best buy I went to gamestop to see if they had anything low price that id be interested in. My aim was to buy a game I didnt originally have since I had bought Darksiders 2. At first I saw DW7 and while I really wanted to get it I had previously owned it so I kept up my search and then saw Downpour and since It was only like $17 bucks I said what the hell and bought it. I havent tryed it yet but i think tonight Ill give it a shot. If its unbearable and I cant stand it Ill take it back and get something else.  

Anywho I think thats about it, I think Ive chatted all of ya'lls ears off enough. Wait! Im forgeting, so for all my Pixlies out there, if you use facebook beware of false Sony/PS4 pages. There sprouting up like the plague on facebook. They normally are posting free stuff for the PS4 or something about testing the PS4. Ive had a few friends like their pages and nearly fall for their tricks and I just wanted to give all my peeps on here a warning of them. By the way here is the chart I promised, I hope all of ya'll are having a grand day!

I think I could enjoy Downpour based on what I've learned about it. (I've been a SH fan since the ps1 days yet I'm not so over zealous I hate all the newer SH games on principle "just because I can". lol.)

Dark-siders 2 seems promising too.

Im about to start Downpour, in a few hours we will know If im liking it or hating it. If it turns out its a game I wont be keeping in my collection, Ill trade it for another at gamestop. Darksiders 2 from what I played when I first had it was great, I just never got around to finishing it fully. The sad thing though is it might be the last one. There was originally gonna be a game for each horseman but with Virgil studios not yet sold off, the series is at a stand still.

those look like a lot of good games!  I'm pretty hyped about the PS4, it seems like Sony is taking things seriously this time.

I think Sony learned a big lesson from the PS3 launch, which is good. Id be scared if they hadnt. I however am hyped for E3 to get here, I think thats when they will announce more of the launch titles.

I really need to play Darksiders when I get a chance; it gets a lot of love on here, and God of War and Zelda sounds like a hell of a combo.

That egg thing looks like it could turn into a Portal turret!

I never played Portal but that has popped up too about it being related to Portal. Im ready to know what the hell it is.

You should play Portal if you can.  It's very fun.

I need to try the Darksiders games, hopefully I can pick up both for 30-40 bucks in total. And if it's like Zelda, then yes I'll give it a go. Maybe that egg thing is the PS4 or something close to it's design? The only games I'm interested in the PS4 is Drive Club and Carmageddon, the latter only because I'm not sure it's coming to current gen systems. But until they put out something I need to try like Uncharted 4 then I have no interest in the PS4, there's still plenty of PS3 games I've yet to try.

Just gotta look around, I bet ya can if you can find good deals. I still need to re buy the first one but I already beat it so im more focused on ones I havent yet beat or played. I thought about that at first, but Im not really sure now that it is the design.  I kind of wonder if its gonna open up and reveal the design of the PS4. There are several games for the PS4 that Im interested in, Thief, Destiny, The Witcher 3 and Watch Dogs are some of the few Im keeping up on.
