The death of Total Biscuit.

5/29/2018

After I hear the news that a great man died & it was John Bain AKA TotalBiscit. At first I was just in shock that he was a bit younger me. When he said that his cancer was back & more aggressive then before. I was hoping that it was not going to kill him & was going to be OK, but I was very wrong.

Most of the times I was in to his point of view on the gaming industry & did think that he was a bit hard on the developers that work on the games. I think the way that he supported gamer-gate & never attacked a woman in the whole gaming industry.

I just hate to see that anyone that will attack a person that just passed away & can't seem to defend their views. It's just sick action for anyone to do. I never say anything that I will hate in the long run, but I do understand that yes. People will hate a critics or commentators for saying bad things about there projects that they worked on.

Yes I know that some people can never take bad remarks from commentators that may see a small issue in the projects that they may not see. Know I can see that not everyone will say that the same game is perfect & has nothing wrong with it at all, but those types of games are not real.

There was a time that I feel that he was just being fair & balance to the gaming community. John was a bit mean to many games that don't meet all the hyped that followed the games. I mean how didn't go mad after we get all hyped up for a game & it fail gloriously in the wake.

If I never meet him I would give he a big hug & shake his hand for his great work. Knowing that I will never get to do that in my life. I think that the wave of hate is not needed for anyone that died & was a critic on your work.

The way that I see it is. You can't that the feedback that the critics & commentators are handing out to you. I think that your not in the right line of work. people will judge your work in the way that they see it & if you don't like it. Then go else where.

May he rest in peace & his work lives on in us.

Happy 25 anniversary to Super Mario Bros the movie.

Chaos in the world of Comics.

5/25/2018

For the past two weeks. There was been talks about on the way that some comic book pros have been treating others that are trying to get in the business & make a living doing it. Well for up & comer that been a critic to some of the big named pros that think there untouchable & can get away with anything that they put out to sell.

As a person that slowly getting into the world of comics thinks & a great place to be in to get away from reality. I do see that there is a place & time for everyone's point of view of the world that we live in, but not comics.

I hate to see a writer, artist or a editor's politics be forced into a story that has no right to be seen as the only truth in the world we live. It's fine that you lightly muck a politician or subject without having to tell us that we all need to think like you. I just don't care about someone's else political thinking.

The one thing that I like is we can choose the way we think about the world we live in a private matter with friends & family. Not force our views on a person that doesn't sees the world on fire like you do. This is why the comic book industry slowly is killing it's self. I bet that this is shutting down small ma & pop shops around the country.

I was hoping that the comic that this comic that was attack by Mark Waid is still coming out, but with no real word on if Diamond Comics is going to ship this comic or not is the big question that we need to know very soon.

With the publisher dropping them. Do to pressure from Mark Waid & some comic shops that are not going to carry it in their stores. This will be a massive blow to the world of comics. I think that we need to show are support to the little guy that will out sell those jerks in the comic shops. That think that their name will sell anything just because there name is on the cover.

The things that I don't like about some of these comics. that are out now Is that they have to be heavy in political correctness just to sell a good story. That is not true at all. Just tell a good story about a group of people or superheroes that are against all odds & somehow beat the villain in the end.

We don't need some meaningless crap of a story & it goes on for 100 issues that are not out selling what other companies are going with better characters & stories under there belts. If we found something that we like & want to support them. We will just do that then.

If a big name company goes under do to there lack of quality comic sells & if some little no named publisher some how beats them at the sells at the end of month. This shows that there is big shift in the current market that there not seeing.

Nobody that can create a better produce then with is already out, Needs to be shut out a industry that been open for everyone that love something. I think that we need to open doors to the world of comics & throw out anyone that think that there a gatekeeper that is not needed.

20 days till E3 2018.

Geek Con 2018 review.

5/21/2018

Another great weekend at a new convention that went to this past Saturday. You know most of the places that I'm going are very nice to go to ant time that you like, but there is a nice feeling to see that most places are getting into the convention scene now days & this one was a nice to try out.

This one was a free to enter & check out the place that where is was being held at. To be openly fair about this was being held at a library that was hosting the event & was a bit surprised that it was a very small convention area that it was being held at.

A first glance I thought it was a joke & don't think it was going to work out. As the day went on I did see that they used their meeting rooms for the panels & side events which was not that bad at all. I was hoping that the vendors area as going to have some new faces & I was right to see that there was some new faces to see there & their work.

Now the thing that I that fell a bit short was the size of the event space. Which don't hurt my overall feeling for the convention as time went on. Now I did think that the floor that it was held on was a easy to get to one part to the other in a matter of seconds.

Overall. I thing that if it comes back next year. I my take a few family & friends a long for the ride with me. Now I will think that is they don't improve on the types of panels that they are having for the next few years. Then I my just not go to next years, but only time will tell.

Rage 2 is real.

5/18/2018

It's been too long since that I talked about a that had a nice little cult following & RAGE is one of them that I have played myself. For a game that was a great game, but the ending was a bit weak & lacking of one. I still that it dose need to continue the story that we enjoyed for the most of it.

One the things that I hope to see more of is where does the story pick up at. With the way that the story ended at it didn't feel like the writers know on the right way to continue the story that they started in the first place. I do forgive the writers that they don't have to end a very high note & never lived up to that series after that.

I will replay RAGE & hopefully that it can get me hyped for this long awaited sequel that that some of the ones that bought the original RAGE. Will buy RAGE 2 on day one? maybe not, because the game has just dropped only two teasers trailers & things my change my views on the game later on down the road.

Do I think that you all should play the first game? If you like to get the whole story on the world that we all going to play in. Then YES you could play the first game & see the madness that is waiting for you when you start your journey into the world of RAGE.

I'm hoping that we do at least get a time frame that the game will come out. I'm guessing that a 2019 release date at the latest. Now I can see if there is a delay or two & get pushed back into 2020. Now I will not have a too high of expectations that where very low for a sequel that I will never ever think of will come out till now.

I wish that this game do have the best of luck & success that it needs to make it a it with all the gamers that loved that original that loved it.

RIP Margot Kidder.

E3 2018 thoughts & predictions.

5/13/2018

E3 is a little over 4 weeks away & there been seem big leaks on some games that we may see there & hopefully I think that with the leaks shows that most things are not that secretive in today's technology. I still think that most of the leaked games are a questionable, but will see if the games are real or not.

I'm still hyped to see on what new games that we know nothing about & when some of that are coming out to the world that we are waiting. Now I will love to see that there are a few games that I have not of heard of to surprise me. With so many games that look good, but are so bad when you play it.

Now I get it. We all do have high hopes for that few games that we all see at these big named events & when the time for them to come out. Then seem to disappointed that a game that I had on my "Game that I have to buy" list. I have been disappointed by a few games that I have seen at E3 & I learned that we can't judge a game by it's trailer.

What do I like to see at this year's E3? That is simple. Great games that everyone is going to play that don't sucks. I know that Bethesda maybe to announced Rage 2 & Doom 2 at there press event. As for anything else that I'm not aware of. I don't know. I can't look in to all the rumors that been coming out.

The biggest thing that I hope to here about is the next generation of game consoles. With so many rumors that I think are a bit off or not true. I hope that we can get a name, specks or some truth to the rumors that some people are saying.

I think that we can wait to see on what we getting our hands on for the next generation for the next line of these game consoles that we will playing on. Now I do have a lot of concern about a the lifespan of the consoles that we been that we have been getting out of them.

Then been getting a mid cycle refresh that been a nice idea if your all hit the max out the graphic by all most right out the gates. I was a bit confused on why has is there a refresh of a console that is doing well.

One thing that I hope is that E3 is going to stay around for years to come. If there was a way to end these leaks that are hurting the secret nature of a true surprised that we love to get from these companies. I will just have to wait to see on what is going to be their.

IS Resident Evil 2 remake dead?

5/7/2018

When the Resident Evil 2 remake was announced many fans where happy to hear that one of the best games in the series is getting an remake. Now with E3 just about a month away & very little from any updates. Many gamers are getting a bit concern that we got very little to go on.

The most resent update that we all got was a picture that included two members of the development team & two people from Sony. does this mean that at Sony's press conference is the one that everyone is going to watch & see if we may get are first look of Resident Evil 2 remake.

Now I ready hate to say this, but if we don't get to see a trailer at E3. I will start to think that there is a problem with the game. Now I do put a lot of trust in the hands of the development team. I do a lot of problems that a corporate suite is trying to leave their hand prints of the game & that is a issue that is the thing we all fear.

I know that there is a small amount of there fan base that is getting so toxic that they are ranting to there followers that "This game is dead to them." I think that there wrong to say that they "Speak the truth." "They know what is going on in CapCom." & other stupid things.

We know that most fan of this series is hyped for this game, but without knowing a whole lot is the main reason that some gamers like me are just hoping that we hear something that will sky rocketed the hype up more. I think that if we get a nibble of the character design, level layout, screenshot of game play or a pre E3 trailer.

How much longer do we need to what for something that has been in development for about 3 years? Well an info on Cyberpunk 2077 has been quiet for 5 years & we got something in January. So I do think that if we wait a bit longer. I think that we can see if the wait was worth it in the end.

I just hope that we don't have are trust shattered by a bad distention that is good to kill off the fan base help it became the franchise that it is today. I just wish that some of these die hard fans see it the way that I do.

Happy Star Wars Day 2018

Now on YouTube.

5/2/2018

It's now official. After some hard thinking about doing this idea. I'm going to try to somethings on YouTube & see if I can do both a blog like this & some projects on YouTube.

Now I will not skip out on this totally & forget this site that started. I will try to fine a balance that is not going to favor one project over another. This may help me out on a few things that I been trying to do, but with a little push like I'm taking right out. Is go to pay off in time.

The things that I will be going like Interviews, reviews, chats with friends & many other things that I think that will go nice to the channel. I do have a few segments that I will be nice to try out that is in the works.

I will need some time to get things all worked out & lined up a few things that is still being thought up as I typed this out to out. I'm going to say all the projects that planned for the channel are in stone yet, but I do plan on getting a things that know that may work are going to be mixed bag at the start.

With that said I will soon start filming a few things that is easy to be & dose take up too much time to post on the channel & see if it fly or not. I do hope that you all can enjoy the work that I put into the project & support me to continue this into a hobby.
