Been a minute since I last updated here, likely due to summer being a bit busy, but have still been doing my share of gaming here and there.
VR is still in the mix, but I must admit, a large portion of my summer thus far has been engrossed with Minecraft, thanks to PewDiePie resparking the passion for the game. There have been a lot of cool updates since I last played too, so it's been fun discovering and exploring.
The VR games that have occupied my time have been a lot of Beat Saber, which I use as the occasional exercise machine. Also have been playing a large amount of VR Chat, which is great fun because you never know what you're going to get. There's been a couple others which I have tried/jumped into including (but not limited to) Virtual Virtual Reality, Spider-Man: Far From Home (demo), No Man's Sky, and a couple others.
I have been garnering interest in going back to some games of a forgotten era, and have been dusting off my consoles lately as well.
I jumped back into Super Mario Maker for the Wii-U after watching so many people on-line posting video of Super Mario Maker 2 for the Switch... has been fun playing this again, and kind of makes me want to get a Switch now... damnit... debating this currently!
Also, jumped back into some GTA games, which I always seem to do every now and then. But just like usual, I feel they don't hold up... tried to start up at GTA 3... i played it out, and the controls are too elementary, same with Vice City. San Andreas has caught my attention a bit more and I could see myself playing through it, but more than likely I'll tire of those controls as well. GTA 4 was able to keep me more enthralled, but even playing through that made me just want to play more of GTA V, so that's where I currently am, playing through one of my various save games on GTA V. Perhaps I'll give GTA Online another go, since they just recently added the Casino DLC... I really really really just wish they would've released a Story-Only DLC, but doesn't look like it, that boat has probably sailed.
Speaking of GTA... the rumor mill has started turning for GTA VI. Tentatively titled, GTA Americas, it is supposed to take place in Vice City as well as Central America in the 70s and 80s. Sounds interesting, but it's still so early, I don't think a lot of the rumors hold weight. Guess we will see, and it will still probably be a while, speculation has it released in 2021 at the earliest... ugh.
Other than gaming, have been having a fun summer doing fun summer stuff with the kids. Life is grand.
