On my last blog post, I posted about the return of my podcast, The Past and The Pending and posted a link. However, I switched hosting sites and forgot to update that url link so one or more of you encountered a 404 screen. The good news is that I have the new url here and a new episode was posted last week. If you're a fan of the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, you may enjoy this one.
Gaming wise, I've spent quite a bit of time on Red Dead Redemption 2 on Xbox One. I've made progress on the story (but still messing about in chapter 2) but I finally tried out the online mode last week. It helped that I had some friends to show me the ropes. Lots of shenanigans ensued.
I bought a used copy of Overwatch so I could play on Xbox as well (i'm still waiting for an opportunity to reacquire a PS4; it'll depend on when I finish off paying for other things but I suspect I'll have another one in less than 2 months). I'm level 14 and I'm still very much support class oriented (Zenyatta, Brigitte) and when there's a healer or two already, I'll switch to tank (Reinhardt or D.Va).
I also finished the story campaign for Batman Arkham Asylum remastered (part of Xbox Game Pass). It was fun to play through again but I still prefer Arkham City.
I still play Gears of War 4 Horde mode with some friends and sometimes randos.
As far as E3 announcements go, I'm most excited for Gears 5, Doom Eternal, Phantasy Star Online 2 and FF7 Remake. When I finally get a Switch, I'll be more enthusiastic about the games on that system in general.
Anyway, keeping it short and sweet. I hope life has been good for everyone here. I'll try to blog again soon.
