Blogging begins!!!

Hello,

If you've come here by mistake please read on, you never know what gems I may reveal. THis is my first N4G blog post so to get things started here's a little info about my gaming habits.

I own a PS3, a Wii, and a laptop, I'm not really a techie, so I can only tell you my laptop is nothing special in terms of gaming power.

My favourite genres are FPS, RTS and RPGs. I have virtually no retro gaming experience as far as platformers go, even though I had a NES, SNES, Mastersystem and Megadrive. I played both mega man and metroid on the Gameboy, and my memories are not exactly brilliant.

The first games I spent a real amount of time on where on the Playstation and the N64, I remember most of the classics from this era of gaming, Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Banjo Kazoe, Conkers Bad Fur Day, Metaql Gear Solid, Resident Evil 1,2, + Nemisis, FFVII, VII and IX, and Of course The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Shamefully I couldn't beat the Temple of Light, and so I have never beaten that game, nor have I beaten Emerald and Ruby Weapon in FFVII.

I'm not really a hardcore gamer,with the exception of Pro Evo, which I racked up hundreds of hours on at University, including my only official tournament. I tend to play in quantity not quality. Not that I play bad games, but more that I will play many games through the solo campaign, without picking up the extras. For instance my GTA games finish at 60-75%, and I do not obsess over getting the last secret package.

Anyway, I'll keep it short and sweet, favourite game of all time, at a push is Planescape Torment, but I might change my mind tomorrow.

Public Eye Creators Wolf Games Are Switching To AI-Generated Gaming

When Wolf Games unveiled its debut title Public Eye, the announcement felt less like a routine game launch and more like a signal flare for the future of

The irony is that it's actually humans ruining everything.

I will never purchase an AI generated game, I will not contribute to something that takes away artistic human expression and creation in gaming. I'm not one of those people who says, "I hope this fails" like so many often do about everything gaming these days but on this one I have to. AI has it's place, just not here.

That’s It, I’m Calling It, Xbox Is Dead, Time Of Death February 20

If you read Kotaku even semi-regularly, you already know that Xbox has been in a weird spot for some time now. And with today’s news that both Xbox boss Phil Spencer and President Sarah Bond are leaving and the new head of the brand will be a former Meta exec who previously lead Microsoft’s AI division, I think it’s time to call it. Xbox is dead. Time of death: February 20, 2026

God! Xbox dead again! Boring! Boring. Heard it all before.

While I normally agree... The future of xbox is on shaky ground. Well, xbox as we know it. Im not sure what they are shooting for but who they put in charge mixed with Phil retiring and bond just flat out leaving. It's not looking good.

Oh come on, Xbox has been dead for at least 10 years now. I think what’s more important right now is Playstation’s death that is very slowly but surely happening through mismanagement and greed.

Some what agree. Sony is in a better position to unf#$k themselves. Xbox isn't.

Levii_922h ago

True i agree with that, xbox's got nothing

I actually agree sooner Hust is gone the better.

He's being clowned on by the entire internet but i have been clowning on him way before he became CEO. I hate modern PS so much man. To this day i have no idea how Astro Bot happend in this terrible PS era but that was clearly a miracle.

Grilla4h ago

Delusional take, why do xbots always project Xbox’s problems onto PlayStation?

This is why the views and comments are low, with lame articles that use divide-and-conquer pretensions.
