E3 Reviews & Thoughts are Coming

by dimensionaltales

So, really quick!! In response to E3 aka Gamer’s Heaven, I will be doing reviews on the eight press conferences, or showcases, as they appear on YouTube. I will be talking about my opinions and viewpoints on each one before grading them. YouTube has released the timeslots as followed:

  • Saturday, June 9, 2018, 1:30 pm EA Press Conference
  • Sunday, June 10, 2018, 3:30 pm XBOX Press Conference
  • Sunday, June 10, 2018, 9 pm Bethesda Press Conference
  • Monday, June 11, 2018, 12:30 pm Square Enix Press Conference
  • Monday, June 11, 2018, 4 pm Ubisoft Press Conference
  • Monday, June 11, 2018, 6 pm PC Gaming Show
  • Monday, June 11, 2018, 9 pm Sony Press Conference
  • Tuesday, June 12, 2018, 12 pm Nintendo Treehouse

One sidenote, I will not be reviewing the PC Gaming Show because I’m not a PC Gamer so I won’t be able to understand and appreciate the information being presented to me. Wednesday and Thursday will have me talking about the games that I heard about and excited for. I hope you all like what I said and enjoy my thoughts on 2018 E3.

Cyber Ninja on my PS4…yes, please

by dimensionaltales

Name: Strider

Platform: Varies (Played it on the PlayStation 4)

Style: Metroidvania

Publisher(s): Capcom

Developer(s): Double Helix Games & Capcom Osaka Studio

Release Date: February 18, 2014

Date of Completion: May 7, 2018

I’ve never played a Strider game, before. I know. I know. BUT! Better late than never, right? At least, I played him in the Marvel vs Capcom series. Haha! Well, at least, I managed to get this game through my PlayStation Plus account for soooo cheap. So cheap in fact that I ended up getting another game; I think I bought like three games for twenty dollars. But, enough of that, let me praise this game.

Old School JRPG meet the 21st Century

by dimensionaltales

Name: Asdivine Hearts

Platform: Varies (Played it on the PlayStation 4)

Style: RPG

Publisher(s): KEMCO

Developer(s): Exe Create Inc.

Release Date: February 1, 2016

Date of Completion: April 3, 2018

I don’t know about you but I sometimes miss the old school JRPGs (Japanese RPG). Don’t get me wrong, I love Skyrim, Dragon Age and the many MANY Western RPGs on my completed list but JRPGs are my true pleasures in the RPG genre. A character-driven storyline that removes all the smoke and mirror from the gameplay. That’s why I love Asdivine Hearts so much.

Uncommon Treasure in Cyberpunk Games

by dimensionaltales

Name: Watch Dogs

Platform: Varies (Played it on the PlayStation 4)

Style: Action/Adventure

Publisher(s): Ubisoft Montreal

Developer(s): Ubisoft

Release Date: May 27, 2014

Date of Completion: March 20, 2018

When the cyberpunk genre of science fiction is intertwined in the realm of video games, the product usually comes out great. Deus EX, Fear Effect, and Final Fantasy VII are the examples of the perfect balance between the two completely different realms. Now, we can add another game to that list: Watch Dogs.

Platform Game That Plays “Black Betty”

Platform: Varies (Played it on the PlayStation 4)

Style: Platform

Publisher(s): Ubisoft

Developer(s): Ubisoft Montpellier

Release Date: February 18, 2014

Date of Completion: May 23, 2018

Platformers are a genre that can grow stall in my mind if I’m encountering the same atmosphere in each game of that area. Rayman Legends is NOT one of those games. This is another game I got for free with my Playstation Plus membership, but I would have happily paid full price because it was absolutely marvelous game. What makes it so marvelous? Well, …let’s start with the level design.

Learn About The Deadly Game Everybody Is Playing

by dimensionaltales

Game of Thrones Psychology: The Mind is Dark and Full of Terrors by Travis Langley

2013 was a year I will never forget anytime soon. I got to go to Chicago to help out at Wizard World. That, alone, was fantastic but a convention is just another convention and doesn’t interest me. People. That’s why I go to these events. I like meeting with people that are not celebrities. Get to know them. Understand them. Harmonize with them. And that’s where I met the coolest psychologist ever.

A New Skill Requires Guidance

by dimensionaltales

Screenwriting for Dummies by Laura Schellhardt & John Logan

For the time being, I’ll go back to Chad Lane and his Frat Gay For You series for a bit because a project required me to acquire a new skill: Screenwriting. And since I have learned from the ground up, I was going to need a crash course of this valuable skill to further my career as a writer/author. With that in mind, what better book to start off then one of the For Dummies series.

What Do You Do With A Problem…

by dimensionaltales

Grammar for Dummies: 1,001 Practice Problems by Geraldine Woods

Do you want to know the irony of being a writer? Terrible grammar. That’s right. We have terrible grammar. And when it comes down to me, I have abysmal grammar. I move so fast that I tend to forget my English lessons from grade school. But, that’s okay because that’s what editors are for, right? Right…but not really. What happens when what you are writing for can’t get to an editor in time? That’s why I got this book.

Style: Action/Adventure

Publisher(s): Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment

Developer(s): TT Fusion

Release Date: February 7, 2014

Date of Completion: February 18, 2018

The Lego franchise has always been adorable and quirky in appearance. It can take a serious series like Harry Potter and make it so cute and special. And this game has got to be the cutest of them all…at least, from what I’ve played so far.

A Rising Star To Keep An Eye On

by dimensionaltales

Frat Rush (Frat Gay For You, #1) by Chad Lane

Okay, Chad Lane is starting to become a favorite writer of mine. Yep! That’s right, ladies and gents, I’m starting to add a romance author to my list of favorite authors. Funny enough, he’s going to be the second author on my list that’s gay; Michael Zummo, the author of the ingenious D’mok series, is another one of mines. But, seriously, this author is really a delight.
