While I haven't actually played it myself yet, I have to go with PUBG. It's been a lot of fun to watch other people play it and I'm really eager to pick it up myself and give it a shot, it looks like a ton of fun. They've done a really good job of marketing it thus far and making it one of the...

It can also kind of create an entirely new game, almost. Depending on the types of mods you download you could have a completely different experience in playing it through with the mods than you had while playing the first time in the regular vanilla.

I ended up picking up Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes during the summer sale this year, which is admittedly a lot less than I'd normally pick up during other sales, but I think staring at the backlog of games I haven't played from the last few sales served as a welcome reminder that I shouldn't...

Whenever I see someone who's a huge flamer in a game, I usually mute them and let my teammates know that I'm muting them so that if they say anything important for once I won't see it (and they'll have to communicate the strategy to me instead). If I'm with friends, I'll often leave them unmuted...

For some reason those games actually caused me to lose interest in the series. . .granted the other half of Gen IV with the remakes (Heart Gold and Soul Silver) were my absolute favorite Pokemon games of all time. I just loved what they did with the Pokelympics or whatever they called it, and...

That game sounds really amusing, now you're making we want to check out Chicken Invaders haha. I'm sure it's an amusing and interesting way to pass time. . .plus if it's any good I can have my parents give it a shot and see if they get into it at all!

How often do you tend to upgrade? And where do you start with upgrades? I built my own PC about 4 years ago, and haven't upgraded anything since because I really don't know where to start. There's just so many individual components that could use an update to make the computer better on the whole.

Could always try getting a larger monitor, or even a TV with an HDMI input that you use for gaming. The second option is what I do - I have an HDMI cord always hooked up to my TV and only plug in my PC when I want to play a game like Rocket League with a controller on a larger screen, it works...

Oh man. That right there is why I can't play Civilization if I have anything to do haha. I still haven't beaten the AI in Civ, either. . .I can only ever beat my friends. It's probably a sign that we're all terrible at the game, but I like to think the AI is just overpowered haha.

I tried playing support-style champions for a while, but I would end up getting caught out in stupid situations because I was terrible with positioning (which is a problem no matter what my role, but it's so much worse when you're just straight up unable to fight back).

Similarly, I feel like Super Mario Run was a good effort to integrate the whole race style of game that is so popular in the mobile genre with the classic Super Mario Bros. we all know and love. I wish it wasn't so expensive, as that's what holds me back from actually purchasing it rather than...

Personally I put together a $450 PC back 4 years ago, and it's performed well for me ever since as a gaming machine. I have a few older consoles as well that I put time into, but when it comes down to it my PC is definitely my preferred source for gaming on a regular basis (although when I'm on...

I can tell you what not to show them - the Portal series. I loved those two games and I was so excited to share the experience with my parents to see if they could finally understand why I enjoyed video games so much. . .and they just couldn't understand what was going on. The controls were way...

Wow, apparently I'd need 3,325 continuous hours to complete my game library which is 138 days, 13 hours, and 3 minutes. It says I could drive coast to coast in the US 62 times instead of completing my steam library...challenge accepted? In all seriousness though, I'm never finishing that...

Pokemon games age really well as far as resale value goes, which is definitely pretty amazing to see. I do agree that the newer games don't really look as Pokemonish as the old ones. . .I feel like that's in part because we're so used to seeing the world from the top down, and now suddenly we're...

I've been really loving Fairway Solitaire lately. It's basically a golf-themed version of solitaire where the cards are arranged in different shapes on the screen rather than the normal setup and you're trying to clear the board. You're scored best on how far above or below par you are the end...

I think it kind of depends on what you're doing with it. If you just go in, play one of the game modes and that's all you ever experience from it, I'd probably give it like a 4 or 5 ranking. If you're willing to go out and download adventure maps and try out servers and things like this, I'd say...

Good marketing is definitely a big part of it. They've done a great job of getting their name out there and becoming a big part of the gaming world. They're also helped by the fact that they allow the freedom to build whatever your mind can think of - it's the same reason things like Legos and...

Plus then there's your teammates who yell at you the whole time no matter how good or bad things are going for them because everything is all your fault. . .MOBAs really eat away slowly at your patience until you hit that "controller out the window" moment lol.

Oh yeah totally. Have you ever seen the race courses Gelocity? There's three of them, they should all come up just by searching that. There's also a single player "time trial" track that you can play. . .they're all really fun, although the third one is definitely the best. You can actually...
