Metal Gear: Survive is DISGUSTING TRASH!!!

Metal Gear: Survive is an abomination to God. This is not only the single WORST Metal Gear Solid game ever made but the single WORST game that Konami has EVER released! Words simply cannot do justice to my seething hatred of Konami right now. First of all, they fired Hideo Kojima. That's an automatic 0/10 for this game right away! But we are FAR from finished talking about this games failure on every conceivable level that spits directly in the face of every Metal Gear fan so resolutely, that it is absolutely insulting! Imagine Resident Evil mechanics made worse, then all Metal Gear solid elements removed, in a game desperately trying to copy Call of Duty, and you get Metal Gear Survive.

Where to even begin? How about the fact that Konami is using predatory tactics to suck you out of your cash, BY DELIBERATELY RESTRICTING YOUR SAVE SLOTS, FORCING YOU TO PAY AN EXTRA $10 ******* DOLLARS JUST TO SAVE YOUR GAME?! The oh...my mistake everyone ITS EVEN WORSE THAN THAT!!!

• 100 SV coins - $0.99
• 550 SV coins - $4.99
• 1150 SV coins - $9.99
• 3500 SV coins - $29.99
• 6000 SV coins - $49.99

Even worse, SV coins cannot become earned in game, despite being in-game currency, so you are forced to pay Konami for the "privilege" of having extra game slots. Oh, thank you, Konami after firing one of the greatest gaming developers of all time for your endless generosity! Metal Gear Survive is ALWAYS ONLINE, so if your connection doesn't work, GOOD LUCK PLAYING THE ******* GAME AT ALL!!!! Absolutely shameful and disgusting...

If only this game's problems ended there but it's not even close. This game removes Solid Snake, Raiden and very interesting character in the series to focus on a meaningless custom avatars battle with hordes of zombies. Because who cares about stealth in a METAL GEAR SOLID GAME WHEN WE HAVE FACELESS ZOMBIES TO SHOOT?!?!? The game now resembles every generic shooter in existence, all stealth and Metal Gear elements are gone. Shoot waves after waves of the same enemies, rinse and repeat for eternity. Boring Tower Defense survival multiplayer which has been repeated to death in other, better games!

The objectives are absolutely pointless and tedious. The story has ZERO connection to any of the Metal Gear characters or lore! Copy pasted environments from MGSV, zero originality present! Is there anything good to say here about Metal Gear Survive? Yes, there is. Buy Hideo Kojima's Death Stranding, AND STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THIS PIECE OF TOTAL TRASH!!!

Final Verdict:

Graphics: 5/10

Gameplay: 0/10

Sound: 0/10

Replay Value: AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH -1000/10

Video Games & School Shootings

The Kentucky Governer's misguided blaming of video games for the recent Florida school shootings is nothing short of totally asinine. In fact, a Rolling Stone article cites that people who do not play violent video games are three times more likely to perpetrate violence against their peers than those who do. 

At the point when researchers have inspected true brutality – school shootings, murder, and amassed strike – any modest connections between computer games and ordinary demonstrations of animosity totally vanishes. Research done by the US Secret Service and our labs have both discovered that under 20 percent of school shooters played fierce computer games with any measure of normality. Not exclusively is enthusiasm for savage computer games uncommon among school shooters, these culprits express significantly less enthusiasm for this fierce medium than most different people. 

If you somehow happened to enter any school in America you would locate that around 70 percent of the male understudies constantly play violent computer games. On the off chance that there is any connection between violent computer games and school shootings it is the other way communicated by lawmakers and specialists looking at chafing boisterous clamor introduction – the individuals who execute demonstrations of violence and brutality in schools are more than three times more averse to play vicious computer games than a normal secondary school understudy. 

Steady with this examination it has likewise been discovered that nations that devour more computer games have brought down levels of vicious wrongdoing than those without this media. Months, when individuals are playing violent computer games, have a tendency to be more secure than months individuals are not home playing computer games. Notwithstanding when savage computer games like Call of Duty or Grand Theft Auto are first discharged there has a tendency to be an abatement in murders. Such discoveries have been imitated by clinicians, business analysts, and humanist at different colleges while considering various potential different factors. 

At the display, we realize that the dominant part of researchers who think about computer games are wary of connections with violence and murder in the public eye. Just around 10 to 15 percent of researchers have confidence in such connections, showing this is unmistakably the minority feeling. Is additionally fascinating that age is a solid indicator of states of mind among researchers. More seasoned researchers and the individuals who don't care for kids will probably accept fierce diversions are terrible. In 2013 a gathering of more than 230 researchers kept in touch with the American Psychological Association communicating worry that the APA should never again discharge proclamations inferring joins between rough amusements and societal hostility. Furthermore, in 2017 the APA's own Media Psychology division discharged a strategy proclamation asking for those legislators like Bevin cease from making these sorts of cases. 

For what reason do legislators like Bevin make such false claims at that point? Speculation postulates this is a protective response to occupy society from considering weapon control. We take note of what the NRA has, before, looked to move banters from firearm control to computer games, which we view as a skeptical and shameless strategy. Lamentably, a vocal minority of researchers, including proficient organizations like the American Academy of Pediatrics have offered ammo to these general public hurting endeavors. 

By stirring up societal dread, these researchers have offered a tolerance policy towards legislators and others to occupy us from the all the more pressing legislative and psychological reasons for school shootings. By advancing a media circus frenzy, these researchers have accomplished more damage than contributing any value towards safeguarding the security of our children from acts of brutality or violence. 

Through neglecting to sincerely edify and educate the general population about violent computer game research and the disparities in the logic between violent video games and real acts of terror, these investigators have ensured that the relapse to Florida will be a similar reaction we saw following Sandy Hook, Virginia Tech, and Columbine. Society will accuse computer games and nothing will be resolved about the true evils of gun violence and lack of proper gun regulations in the United States.

BAYONETTA + BAYONETTA 2 for Nintendo Switch

Bayonetta 1 & 2 return on the Nintendo Switch and the results are astounding! Bayonetta was one of the greatest action adventure games made in the last ten years, and now thanks to the Nintendo Switch, you can slash through demons with HD graphics on the go! What's not to love?

Bayonetta's story is an absolute journey into insanity, notwithstanding endeavoring to clarify it will make you seem like an insane individual. All you truly need to know is that the preposterousness of the story takes you through four measurements: Paradiso (Heaven), Inferno (Hell), Purgatorio (the space between the measurements where holy messengers, devils and people can connect) and the human world. Its madness, comingled with brilliance, as there is simply no other gaming experience like Bayonetta on the market, years after its initial multiplatform release!

Did I neglect to specify Bayonetta's hair not just serves as her suit, she additionally utilizes it to summon Infernal Demons from Hell. That is additionally a thing. All through the recreations, you'll get the opportunity to fight coasting seraph heavenly attendants and evil presences, goodness, and at one point you battle God in space. Truly, that God, the maker of everybody and everything.One of the things that make the Bayonetta arrangement so incredible is that it completes an awesome activity of inviting new players without annoying activity diversion veterans. Try not to misunderstand me, both Bayonetta amusements are troublesome, yet they are troublesome in a way where every demise feels like you botched up rather than the diversion being out of line. 

The center ability of Bayonetta that all players are compelled to utilize during combat is Witch Time. This game mechanic is highly intuitive, as it rewards players for accomplishing something they should do: maintaining a strategic distance from enemy assaults and playing defensively. By evading assaults at the right time, Bayonetta backs off the progression of time, enabling her to strike a few times in a matter of seconds. Make no mistake, Bayonetta is not a mindless hack and slash, true combat strategy remains necessary to prevail! Witch Time is utilized both all through battle. The most clear utilization of this workman is to slaughter foes, in any case, it's additionally utilized as a part of various riddles.

The touch controls should ease newcomers to the quickly paced activity of Bayonetta, however, I don't discover them extremely valuable. Bayonetta 1 and 2 both component Easy mode and touch controls. In the event that this is your first time playing either amusement, simply stick to Easy and figure out how to play appropriately utilizing the customary controls. It might appear to be harder than utilizing the oversimplified touch controls yet you will love it over the long haul when you inevitably proceed onward to the higher troubles. Bayonetta 2's unbelievable pacing has you continually investigating new situations and warding off odd animals. 

At no time do you ever feel a particular segment is delaying on the grounds that the engineers never give you an opportunity to get exhausted? You are demonstrated such a significant number of new things in a short measure of time that it can be to some degree overpowering at focuses, however, that is the excellence of Bayonetta. These diversions are made to be replayed no less than a few times keeping in mind the end goal to ace the battle framework as you battle your way through the harder challenges. 

Playing through Bayonetta 1 initially influenced me to welcome the outline of Bayonetta 2 out of a way that I didn't back when it propelled on the Wii U. I exceptionally suggest players handle the diversions all together, regardless of whether you've effectively played Bayonetta 1 and haven't played the continuation. Not exclusively will it fill in as a pleasant instructional meeting however it'll demonstrate you exactly how extraordinary the second diversion genuinely is. 

The Switch variant of Bayonetta 1 and 2 additionally includes a couple of Nintendo-just treats that did not show up in the first forms. Bayonetta now has outfits where she can take on the appearance of Link from the Legend of Zelda, Samus from Metroid, Peach, and Daisy from the Super Mario arrangement and Fox from Star Fox. 

Overall, Bayonetta is a perfect example of how to release a remake, its an incredibly satisfying experience which no Nintendo Switch owner can afford to miss!

Celeste for Nintendo Switch

Celeste for the Nintendo Switch is an absolute delight to experience! Classic retro platforming, upgraded for the 21st century!Celeste is one of the most challenging platformers yet released, requiring precise jumps and timing in order to win. Yet often you will find yourself swept away in Celeste's brilliant art direction, adaptive soundtracks and phenomenal pacing!

Celeste's appearance as a typical 2D platformer is marred by its constant suprises. Madeline controls so flawlessly onscreen that you wonder if Super Mario might be getting a true competitor for the first time since the 1990's SEGA decade. Even more remarkable is Celeste's unique and complex story, which flawlessly interweaves modern dilemas within a fantasy world about the trials and tribulations of modern life.

The story isn't a background feature, or overlapping the action sequences. Instead the story seemlessly integrates into the level designs themselves. Your actions in this game have real-world consequences and the game remembers your mistakes as easily as it remembers your victories. Subtle themologies and overt conversations interlude so effortlessly, you notice yourself getting drawn into Celeste's world with no counscious awareness on your end!

Celeste's charm is undeniable. The gameplay raises the bar for the platforming genre. Combat is silky smooth, and every level requires precise timing and precision in order to complete. This is platforming perfected down to a science, a true masterwork of gaming design, and one of the best 2018 releases so early into the year. Celeste is an absolute gem, and a must own for all Nintendo Switch owners!
