I got my PS4, guys! Shit's hype as ***NO PROFANE LANGUAGE PLEASE***!

I got Lego Marvel for it (probably the best Lego game as of now) and I platinumed it. Then I grabbed the plat on the PS3 version because I knew where everything was. I've also been playing a lot of AC4 and I tried Resogun, both impressive. I usually go right into a Party regardless of what console I go on though, gotta love the cross game chat, right?! The mic is ass though.

I'm looking forward to playing the “Definitive” edition of Tomb Raider because I really enjoyed the singleplayer part. So in preparation, I've been grinding the multiplayer part of the trophy list on the PS3 version. I JUST finished grinding all the XP and salvage, which only took 2 days actually, and now I have to look for boosting partners because the online is DEAD. I managed to get a couple of the trophies legit but there was only a max of 3 people in a mode meant for 16 and I couldn't even find a single lobby for the last 2 ranked modes so…

Do any of you happen to have a copy of TR and want to help me out? I'd get you all the trophies but no xp boosting. I'd prefer to do this with people I trust but it looks like I'm not going to get much of a choice… It'd probably take a maximum of 4 hours, probably'll take much less. Consider it, dudes!

Been pretty busy recently. I've taken to hitting the gym everyday after school now Tuesday-Sunday, with the sessions that last up to two hours with my best friend so it's actually pretty enjoyable. I want results though, and I'm getting them for sure. I want to be able to break Ricky-oh in half by the end of it essentially.

But when I get time to game, I've been getting serious about going for the GTAV platinum. I started my singleplayer save over because I didn't wait to do the assassination missions on my first run and I missed out on some serious dough. I ended up funneling the end game $30 million on all three characters into the stock market that you fix in your favor for the assassination missions and I ended up with a return of $120 million for all three. In addition to the $30 mill. Damn. So after I did that, I purchased almost all the properties (including DAT GOLF COURSE) and now I make a million weekly, it's insane. I just wanted to hold off on the last properties though cos I want Michael to have all the theaters cos he loves movies so much  I have 85% regained too, I didn't mind doing it over because all the heists have two approaches each and the game's honestly fun and immersive as hell in my opinion. I plan on getting the ufo parts back tomorrow and a couple of the misc. friend activities and whatnot out of the way.

The VGAs or VGX for dumb gross “Xtreme” Dew&doritos xboxone titanfall spectacular edition will be on tomorrow. I'd tune in solely because there could be some pretty hype announcements and every now and then they get a joke or two that I honestly appreciate. Most are bad though. And it is kinda the official GOTY award kinda, it'll be what the general public sees as it anyways so vote if you care at all lol. I needed to make sure Troy Baker gets the credit he deserves but apparently the voice category is the Troy Baker award so pick his best role I guess!

I'd say the safe bet is Germany but I want Portugal to win because Ronaldo.

Finished off B:TS pretty quickly (by my standards anyway) so gonna load up Wolf Amongst Us. Reckon I can get that and the Burial At Sea DLC knocked out pretty sharpish too.

Ahhh! How did you like The Wolf Among Us? I thought it was. So. Fcuking. Awesome. The art style and noir like everything it's just so amazing. When's episode 2? I need it in my life!! I didn't know what to expect, I just trusted telltale and MAN was that a smart idea.

So for the most part, I've been busy with this girl but ah whatever, I'm done with that bullshit for now. To let you guys know how long I actually lasted, I believe the date on my last platinum was when I asked her out so yeah… Again, whatever lol. When was the last time I posted? There's no way I can include everything I skimmed over in these last couple months. But I'll try seeing as how this site's still as small and adminless as ever

GTA5 lived up to my lofty expectations. Man the GOTY awards are going to be interesting this year. This year was so good with all these amazing ass titles AND the PS4. Such a step up from last year which had what? Far Cry 3, TWD, Sleeping Dogs and RE6? Eh. These games are coming out faster than I can even finish them where last year there would be like three consecutive months without buying a new game. It'll probably boil down to TLOU vs. GTA5 but it doesn't matter. I think this entire year has just been radical, and with the PS4, I'm still optimistic for 2014.

Batman Arkham Origins was really fun when I did my first playthrough, but oh my GOD did I realize how disapointing it really is the second time through. The Dark Knight challenge system completely screwed up and sucked out all the fun I originally had with it. The Worst Nightmare track strips you of all your freedom, because there is only ONE room where you can get Rank 6, and it's in the story. So if you're like me, or most Batman fun-loving people in the world, you just wanted to beat the story and get whatever side content you could on the way, paying NO attention to the DK challenges. Because why would you ever assume they would put missable challenges in an open world game where there are constantly enemies walking around on rooftops and the streets that count in the experience system as fcuking predator encounters not count as predator encounters for the DK system? UGHH. It's hard to explain unless you actually are aware of the Worst Nightmare track. But hey, props to Troy Baker, who did a really competent Joker surprisingly. He's been killing it, he's Booker DeWitt, Joel, the Joker, and Hawkeye and Loki in Lego Marvel in this year alone.

Lego Marvel though… I really need to try Lego LOTR because otherwise I'd say this was the best Lego game since Batman 2. The story was nice and the open world has a lot that's just fun to get lost in. Unfortunately, I wasn't a fan of any of the jokes this time, especially that god awful schawarma gag  A lot of the characters feel really good, the most realistic that you can get to play as some of these dudes sadly enough. Like Iron Man feels exactly like how you'd think he'd actually play if that makes sense? It's hard to put into words, it's a feel haha. And the way Loki fights and dances around his sceptar and Hulk's run and Cap's shield throw, it just all feels exactly like how I always wanted, and that's worth the price of admission alone if you ever wanted to play a good game with the Avengers. It's absolutely baffling to me that the Lego team can nail the feel of playing as Iron Man more than the actual Iron Man 2 game. But I guess it shouldn't be since they're actually halfway competent. Try it out if you haven't already, people. I'd definitely say it's a good “first lego game” too if that's what's holding you back. Get it to play as your favorite Avenger, everyone loves them, they probably nailed exactly how you imagined their likeness would be.

I have 46 golden bricks and 50 character tokens to go. Just unlocked Stan Lee and Deadpool. Those two put a huge smile on my face

But that's mostly it. Remember life's most important lesson, people: Bros before hos!

Thor: The Dark World

Enjoyed this despite the occasional dull bits. Quite humorous throughout and was surprised how much of it was set in London! My only gripe is the villain. Bland, bland, bland but that might just be due to my dislike of Christopher Ecclestone.

Totally agree with you. Man, I loved how Loki stole the show and how much better it was compared to the snooze-fest that was the first Thor. Can't wait for Winter Soldier dude.

The medbay cannot revive dead people.

Except that it literally does…  And this isn't bitching. This is discussion and pointing out plot holes and inconsistencies.

Ah Denzel, give me some credit here. I know both Neil Bloomkamp and Sharlto are from South Africa. That's where District 9 takes place and I had to see if that was a coincidence after all. I don't think that's Sharlto's real accent though. I'm pretty sure Wikus's accent is his, it sounds more realistic. That bounty hunter from Elysium's voice is just that with a higher pitch, it sounds like he's manipulating his voice more in that. I'm glad to see you didn't defend the grenade scene. Up until that point, I was giving the movie a chance. When I stopped, it would've given me a bunch of problems to overlook even if I still desperately wanted to enjoy it anyway.

I realize that the love interest wouldn't revive Jodie Foster but what's stopping someone else from saving her? After all, they saved the antagonist hours after his head blew up and at that point, nobody knew she was conspiring to take over. And for the data surge, I realize that fried his brain but it's still intact. If a grenade can blow a man's flesh off all the way down to the skeleton then a surge that puts him to sleep makes the latter unrevivable? The key rule apparently, based off what the merc said when he revived the antagonist is that the brain must be intact. Matt's brain's intact, it's just empty. What's stopping him from being revived with no memories until somebody tells him who he is or something? I wouldn't even be nitpicking at this shit if they didn't put that stupidass rule in. They could've killed off Sharlto and had Jodie Foster be the bad guy for the final act but they just had to put that shit in.

So apparently what I'm getting out of this is that Elysium is much more of a good film if you approach it figuratively and symbolically, rather than literally like I did. Apparently if you don't have your hopes too high and you're willing to look past a few gaping flaws, you can still have a good time with a flawed movie, sort of like I did with Man of Steel. Or maybe, most importantly, what I gained out of this is that we both are intolerant to laziness, but in different situations. I dunno, maybe you're right and I'm wrong or I'm right and you're wrong but the fact that we're disputing it proves that it wasn't universally clear.

But yeah, see Elysium again and look out for that black cock pacifier. I'm 99% sure that it was never mentioned beforehand and if you're looking at it figuratively it says that Matt Damon has a deep throat.
