My hunter is ready for House of Wolves!  If you play on ps4 add me, jinxy03.

     I was bored tonight when I got off work, so I finally went to read some of the grimoire cards on bungie,net.  Trying to prepare for House of Wolves next week, so I've been playing Destiny again for the first time in ages,  I was surprised to see there is somewhat of a story in the cards.  It's a little disjointed because I don't have them all unlocked, but it's there.  Destiny would've been a much better game if they have had just put the story in the actual game.  But we all know that, and its late, so I'll just say I'm way more excited for Witcher 3 than House of Wolves at this point.  I was lucky enough to snag a collector's edition for the ps4, so I'm very excited.  Only three more days to go!

     So I picked up Assassins Creed Rogue recently.  I used to love the AC series, but I have mixed feelings about Rogue and Unity both.  The storylines don't have the depth they used to, at least to me.  And yet I keep getting suckered into buying them in the hopes they'll improve.  My biggest complaint is they've gone almost nowhere with the modern storyline for what, 3 games now?  The historical settings are interesting, but without the cohesive modern day story to tie it all together they just feel lacking.  Unless they actually plan to write a decent conclusion to the templar vs assassin storyline, they should've wrapped up the whole thing at the end of 3.  But then Ubisoft wouldn't have their cash cow, and I'd have nothing to complain about!  Don't get me wrong, I'll still pick up the new games.  I'll just wait until they're in the bargain bin from now on.  I did watch the reveal trailer for Syndicate a few hours ago.  I'll admit, they got me hooked for a few minutes.  The new assassin looks pretty cool.  Until my brain kicked in and I remembered what the game is actually going to look and play like.  Same old combat and mechanics, I'm assuming.  If they'd just change it up a bit.  Something along the lines of the combat in Shadow of Mordor.  That would be amazing in an AC game!  I'll keep my fingers crossed.  So what do you guys think?  Is the series milked to death, or do you still have hope its actually going somewhere?

   

Birth of a gaming blog

     I was inspired to start a gaming blog awhile ago, mostly because I thought it might look good on a resume.  My goal is to be a gaming journalist, but we'll see how that goes.  My other reason for doing a blog is I love talking about games and the news that goes with them.  I moved recently from a college town to a non-college town, so there's not too many people to do that with anymore.  I realized  how much I missed my gaming friends and coworkers. and so this blog was born.  My hope is to get at least a few followers that like to talk gaming as much as I do.   I'll be writing at least a short post every day, nothing worse than a blog that never gets updated! There's some awesome games coming out shortly that I'm excited to talk about, so I'll be posting about those soon.  I don't plan on talking just about games, there's plenty of good TV shows and movies to discuss too.  If you think you'll like my blog, feel free to share it on Twitter or Facebook or anywhere else if you'd like. I'll be grateful for the help in spreading the word!
