In TheLimoMaker’s garden in the shade!
Hello my little beetles, FakePlasticTree here! We are well into the new year already and I miss having a functioning PS3, and have yet to require a proper replacement. So, while I wait and look for a new one, I’ve been spending time playing more Yakuza Ishin. I really love it; it might be one of the best Yakuza titles, even beating most of the main ones. It’s a really engaging game.

EA filed a patent in 2016 to tinker with online matchmaking for better player engagement
FakePlasticTree: CotW is not always fun and games; sometimes there is truth. As the gaming community proved to Microsoft a few years ago, having your console be always online is very anti-consumer, especially when taking those people who don’t have high-speed, functioning internet into consideration. Single player games have never been stronger, and Gravity Rush 2 shows that you can do neat things with online components – but they shouldn’t be the seed and entire frickin’ apple tree of the product. And that’s enough rambling, onward!

FakePlasticTree: First world problems.
And that wraps it up for that week, and by that week I mean last week as this one got up a tad bit late. Blame internet problems, which only brings me back to the point I made earlier about why “always online” is still not the ideal way to go for gaming yet. But enough about me, look forward to the next issue which I imagine should be up not too long after this one! It’s gonna be delivered to us by our very own dependable LimoMaker!
Stay Safe!
