Why waste valuable typing time describing stuff that sucks?
I'm only promoting stuff that is bringing their A Game....Well maybe a B+ Game too.
Uncharted 4 - This series has got to be my favorite franchise ever. This game is amazing. it's beautiful to look at , has movie level writing, great action, & great drama.
It may have the best ending(s) I have ever played.
The way it paces itself through the action and the story just hooks me. Imo, the gameplay itself is slightly less than Uncharted 3, but the overall experience is better than all of them.
My favorite non-gaming part is Nathan being in a market. It is full of people and they are all doing individual stuff and I spent a lot of time just watching them. I followed this guy carrying a ladder. He takes the ladder, places it next to the wall, climbs it, & then starts painting the wall blue. Who does this level of detail for a person you are supposed to just walk by?
It;s great. If anyone loves action adventure games as opposed to FPS, it doesn't get much better than this.
Big Little Lies - This show seems like a typical story about rich white people, but it's way better than that. I can't even explain it without it sounding like it's a typical show about rich white women and their angst. So just watch it.
The acting is on another level and especially between Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman. Nicole Kidman is getting an Emmy. A great thing about a lot of HBO shows is their use of music and the music and cutscenes play pivotal roles in setting the mood of the show. It also blends in the lives of the men and the kids. It's a great show.
The Leftovers - Season 3 started last night and it's as trippy as last season. Pound for pound, last season was probably my favorite show of that year with International Assassin just barely being beat out by Game of Thrones episode 9.
It once again spin off in a different direction while holding to the same themes. The opening prologue is beautiful and sad in the same way last season's was.
No one is going to watch it, but it is so good it's sad so many miss it's greatness. Kudos for HBO giving it a final season.
