So, that EA deal closed and let's just say I'm not too thrilled/happy about it. While it's bigger than me, it doesn't mean I don't have anything to say about it, and you know me. I love fighting the good fight. www.theouterhaven.net/eas-55-billi...

Say it with me. Beast of Reincarnation IS NOT A SOULSLIKE. My god. Are you just so dead set on calling any 3D action RPG a Soulslike, even if it doesn't fit the mold? Seriously, this is pissing me off. Just stop.

Finally, I can talk Beast of Reincarnation, which I enjoyed. Yes, it has some jank and yes the music is repetitive at times. But I enjoyed the combat, traversal, cooking and exploration. Not the best, but still fun and I enjoyed it. See what I thought: www.theouterhaven.net/beast-of-rei...

After seeing what Neowiz/Round8 was able to accomplish with Lies of P on the Switch 2, I'm really interested in seeing what Fromsoft does for Elden Ring. That said, I played that twice before it disappeared and the performance wasn't there. Hopefully it runs just as well, or better.

I will NEVER EVER use Elgato's studio for recording any gameplay footage again. It either randomly crashes or stops recording and I've lost so much gameplay footage because of it. I'm done. It's OBS 1000000% for now on.

Played the Mortal Shell II beta on the PS5 Pro. Here's my take aways, -Performance mode plays really well -Quality mode looks to be 30FPS? Hurts my eyes -Definitely buggy, but still recommend that people give it a try -Was already set on getting MS2 on PC, not so sure now.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day was amazing, a bit slow in some parts, but amazing, nonetheless. Definitely going back to see it again. Tom Holland did a fantastic job portraying the Peter we see in the comics; down on his luck, beat up, and lonely. Hell, the entire cast was great.

I drive past my childhood house usually once week and even though I tell myself it doesn't bother me that it isn't in the family, it really upsets me. If it wasn't because of siblings, we could have worked out something and kept a fully paid off house. But no, they wanted money. Asses.

Well, PC Gaming had a good run. This is why AMD needed to offer something comparative and Intel needed to be in a better place, to make Nvidia even reconsider what it's doing. So much for anything being affordable from the Nvidia camp. But hey..... Nvidia GeForce Now is here.

RIP "According to Taiwan's Economic Daily, the company has increased the price by between 20 and 30 percent... This is the third price hike the company has implemented so far this year. At the same time, Samsung is also expected to increase the price of its DRAM by around 20 percent."

With Wuchang: Fallen Feathers getting a sequel (HELL YES), I figured why not share my original review of the game. I enjoyed Wuchang, outside of a few concerns, and feel that it's one of the BEST soulslike that you can get your hands one. www.theouterhaven.net/wuchang-fall...

With all the BS happening in the gaming world, it's good to wake up to some good news. Wuchang is coming back! And the original lead, Xia Siyuan, will be heading up the game. Fantastic news! www.theouterhaven.net/xia-siyuan-r...

Can someone please tell me why Motorola thought it was a good idea to force people to use HDR on the Moto Razr Fold? I didn't even pay attention to it, because it was never a thing, until I started exported my images and it had HDR attached to them. I would have never gotten the phone had I know.
