Definitely have a new Game of The Year contender in Jedi Fallen Order. I am absolutely loving it. With this and The Mandalorian it's nice having some excellent Star Wars content.

I'm sure I will be waiting a bit to get this from Gamefly. Totally forgot it was dropping or I would have tried to time the system right. lol It's at the top of my que though!

So I decided to go out and rent Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order from Redbox to give it a whirl for a night. Wow! @The Ominous is correct about this game. It is fantastic so far. Absolutely gorgeous looking game as well. I highly recommend. I like Star Wars, but I wouldn't say I'm a mega fan, but I am loving this game. Can't wait to get my hands on this game for a longer period of time. May be worth purchasing actually.

Man, haven’t played a video game in ages. Used to be pretty into them back in the day though.

I currently have an Xbox One hooked up in the basement living room, but literally use it for surfing the Internet on TV, Netflix, YouTube, and streaming.

Favorites from back in the day-
all of the Madden football games
GTA series (Vice City, San Andreas)
all of the Splinter Cell games
Perfect Dark
Mario 64 of course
Street Fighter 2, and Sonic back in the Sega days
Back on the 1st Nintendo used to play the crap out of the “Mega Man” games, double dragon, Mario games. I remember this weird game called “little nemo” or something where you’d feed animals bubble gum and then you could assume their “power”.

*Redbox sales their rental movies direct from the kiosk dispenser, I'd assume games as well & I know they can only charge your bank card a maximum of $25 bucks in late fees/ non return of movies( I had to reposition something like 250+ lpg cylinder exchange cages when that Redbox outfit first blew into town one summer,smoked out a hammer drill in doing so,too),,, the "trick" I've heard to scam redbox was to use a pre paid card, go around hitting,,,er,,, renting movies from a dozen different dispensers in a single day and well,,, abscram with their absconded flicks forevero_O

* I only posted this cuz I knew you'd prolly groove to it ,Slammed 0

Veteran MMORPG developer Brad McQuaid has passed away.

https://www.mmorpg.com/pantheon-ris...pantheon-developer-has-passed-away-1000054473

Brad McQuaid, a legendary game designer who worked on EverQuest, Vanguard: Saga of Heroes and most recently Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen, has passed away according to a tweet on the official Pantheon Twitter.

Largely associated with his time as a developer on the EverQuest, though his influence has touched many games. Founding Sigil Games, McQuaid worked on Vanguard before moving on to found Visionary Realms. There he has been actively working on Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen.

News of his death was announced both on Twitter, as well as through a forum post on the Pantheon forums.

"It is with deep regret and profound sadness that we share that Brad McQuaid, Chief Creative Officer of Visionary Realms passed away in his home last night.

Brad was a visionary, a mentor, an artist, a trailblazer, a friend, a husband, a father. He touched thousands of lives with his dreams and concepts. He changed the landscape of video games forever. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered in life and in Pantheon.

Thank you, Brad, for bringing us together through your worlds. Rest in peace, Aradune.

All of us at Visionary Realms offer our deepest condolences to Brad’s family and during this most difficult time, we kindly ask that you respect the privacy of Brad's family.
