That's the Black Ops 6 campaign complete. I liked how they tried different gameplay mechanics in each level. From heist to a sort of open world driving bit. The only bit that was dire was the zombie one.

Trying out that Black Ops 6 trial. Partway through the campaign and I just hit the worst level in the entire series. Zombies has never been a good concept for the series. Ever. And now they've poisoned the campaign with it. Awful.

First experience of a Call of Duty multiplayer in about five years (probably more). Predator, Squid Game and American Dad spotted. This is what the big multiplayer games are now, huh?

It's been a hell of a week. But weekend is for gaming. Time to get stuck into Silent Hill 2.

Bitmap Books absolutely shitting themselves this morning. Then the author goes on the Nazi site to shout "WE BEAT CANCEL CULTURE". Oof.

Callisto Protocol ending on a bum note when I realise the final chapter of the game is paid for story DLC. Haha. Fuck that. I thought that sort of scummy behaviour was left behind on the Xbox 360.

Looking at how much Guitar Hero 2 guitars cost. Somebody needs to stop me from making a stupid decision.

I've always thought my brother, who has despised Pete Davison for years, was being overly harsh.

Then I read this quote and think, nope, he was right all along.

"i’ve been getting a little bit of flak just because my dad died in 9/11” is an awesome line

Just catching up on the FGC news. So on top of Saudi buying Evo, the Capcom Cup is now going on PPV for the finals.

In short, support your local tournaments because the main stage is fucked.

Jimmy Carr would do a comedy show for the EDL if the money was good.

AdamG @adamg86.bsky.social · 15d

Sean Penn's performance in One Battle After Another was certainly something. And I mean that as a positive.

AdamG @adamg86.bsky.social · 18d

Joker, Ichiban and soon Mega Man will all be added to that Sonic Racing game. The holy trinity of my faves.

My utter anger at the cluster fuck that is the Your Party membership stuff has now turned into laughter. Corbyns side now asking for membership money. What about the ones that already gave to Sultanas group?

An absolute train wreck of epic proportions. Even Change UK weren't this bad. Fucking hell.

Credits rolled on Doki Doki Literature Club. That was an insane experience and I'm glad I somehow knew little about it before I played it.

That Mando trailer really feels like a transparent attempt to get people to stop cancelling D+.

Bethesda posted a clip from the new Indiana Jones DLC of Indy petting a cat and saying “you don’t care much about fascists do you?” And they are all pearl clutching saying this was a direct attack on Charlie Kirk. That’s where we are.

Indiana Jones, known fascist killer, is triggering them.

Your film might be receiving critical acclaim, but if I see a runtime of close to 3 hours then it's a no thanks.

AdamG @adamg86.bsky.social · 28d

You may have heard me say this on the discord, but yes, it's worse than 2. Though I think my disappointment was mainly that they had Robert Patrick as the villain and he was wasted. But season 3 is the best.

Playing through Atari 50. The Jaguar really was a horrific console.

I just reached that point. Had to re-read it multiple times. Truly cursed.

On the plus side, I just watched The Long Walk and it was excellent.
