IM PLAYIN's KailIos discusses the woes of not having an internet connection, and how that affected his gaming habits.
"I love gaming, something that isn’t exactly a surprise considering you’re reading a piece from a gaming driven website. So when I moved to my new place, I guessed it would have a delay on having access to certain privileges. Although I wasn’t anticipating missing out on the most important thing to basically most people now a days. You guessed it, the internet. Little did I know that the new place would mean not having internet for a whole 21 days. Not knowing might have actually helped because I had no time to actually prepare. I’ll admit, I did have internet at work, so I could at least keep up to date on the goings on from a computer, but not having it in the shelter of your own home is something else. Especially on those days where all you want to do is come back and kick some person’s ass online."
Release date and expected launch time for when the Fallout 4 next-gen update will come out along with how to download.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "A Difficult Game About Climbing is obviously frustrating, and I don’t exactly think it’s a fun pasttime, but it’s exponentially more enjoyable than the horrendous Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy. It’s actually beatable with enough trial and error. Its mechanics, whilst not exactly polished to the brim, work as intended, with no intentional input lag. It’s still clearly meant for Let’s Play youtubers to film themselves losing their minds over it, but it can still be a passable challenge if you’re up for the task."
WTMG's Leo Faria: "I loved that New Star GP ended up being nothing like what I was expecting from it. I thought I was going to get a simple and straightforward love letter to Virtua Racing, only for it to be something more akin to the best F1 racing games from the mid to late 90s, with a perfect blend of accessible physics and simulation elements. New Star GP is adorably retro in its visuals and vibes, but it’s got some surprising amount of depth and an interesting career mode. A little hidden gem in the racing scene, without a doubt."
When i had to move to the new house , i didnt have the internet for a month and i had dark souls , all i heard it was harddddd :) but what made it classic to me was after i defeated the gargoyle before the bell and then rang the bell , i didnt know what to do next , i kept going back and forth everywhere until i knew where should i go , it was an awesome feeling , i felt i was playing a good old school game . Now everything is on the internet and you never get stuck :( ...
At least it wasn't...28 days later...
Ok I admit that was bad, but I couldn't resist...
I preferred the days of gaming where......
You went into a shop and you looked around. You saw a game you were interested in, you looked at the cover and the back cover, you bought it and you went home and played it. You discovered things on your own. Of course there were magazines around but for the most part you didn't let the internet decide what you liked and disliked.
Those were simpler times, for me atleast, during the ps2/Xbox/Gamecube era. I would even go back to the PS/N64 Era. Things are just in a sad state now. I like the internet for the news, but EVERYTHING IS CONSIDERED NEWS NOW, even someones feelings and why they sold console Y and went to console X.
The internet is the most powerful information medium we have, that is why governments want to control it so badly (propaganda is strong) but it has really put a damper on my used to be favorite past time.
I haven't had internet for months, but my neighbors have wifi. Not strong enough signal for me to game with, but good enough to check up on N4G everyday (:
Offline gaming since May /:
Feeling like this now :( unfortunately had to send my ps4 in for repair and they received my console yesterday and turn around time is between 7-10 days FML
