The Initiative's Perfect Dark Should Be The Best Game On Xbox Series X.

The third year of the Xbox Series X/S console generation is almost over. On November 10th, 2023, most media outlets will be writing their thoughts about how they feel about Xbox series consoles. Basically, we will be getting a three-year report card from IGN, Kotaku (definitely don't read their report), GameSpot, Forbes Gaming, and so on. I will also write a report of my own for the Xbox Series X console as I own it and have been playing on it since November 12th, 2020. The upcoming AAA game, Starfield will have a major impact on the report card for the Xbox Series X/S consoles. If Starfield is great, Xbox Series X/S consoles might get a B+ or A-. If Starfield flops, the average could go down all the way to C or C- (Kotaku will definitely give an F or D+ at best).       I'm looking forward to playing Starfield day one and see what it has to offer to us gamers. However, even if Starfield is a masterpiece, my grade for the Series X console won't change. I'll explain wh...

My Steam Deck Review.

     It has been two full years now since Steam Deck was revealed by Valve, a prominent digital distribution company that founded the Steam platform. When I saw Steam Deck for the first time and found out that I could play all Steam games and Xbox games on it, I instantly wanted to order one. Ever since I started gaming, I always wanted to have a portable gaming device that I could carry with me wherever I go, including school and college. I had a PlayStation Portable (PSP) from 2007-2009 and I really enjoyed playing games on it until it just stopped working due to some technical issue. Nintendo consoles were just not for me as I was never into any of the Mario games (except for the recent Super Smash Bros) or Zelda games. I wanted to play games with amazing graphics and gameplay, and I wanted the protagonist in the game to be stylish and/or badass (sorry Mario & Link fans).      I was very excited to get my hands on Steam Deck as I wanted to experience...

What Exactly Led Me to Get a PS5 in 2021?

     I've been an Xbox guy since the summer of 2008 and went twelve straight years just playing games on Xbox consoles. It was in January 2020 when I was gifted a PS4 slim along with three games by my former boss. I couldn't believe it and was thrilled to receive a gaming console with games as a gift as it showed that my boss was very proud of the work I was doing for him and the company. Besides feeling good about myself for being acknowledged, I was also very happy that I was going to play some amazing games that I had missed out on between 2013 to 2019, along with the new games that were coming out in 2020 exclusively on PlayStation 4.      In 2020, I played and enjoyed many games on my Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 consoles. Being able to experience God of War, The Last of Us 1 & Part 2, Marvel's Spider-Man, Uncharted 4, Days Gone, and Ghost of Tsushima all in the same year was just special. I wish I could go back to 2020 and experience those games a...

AEW: Fight Forever Review

    Reviewed on Xbox Series X and Xbox One X.      Before I give my feedback on AEW: Fight Forever, I would like to talk about AEW wrestling in general. In 2019, when AEW (All Elite Wrestling) debuted its very first episode on TNT, I was very happy as a wrestling fan. I had lost my interest in WWE in 2014 when Vince McMahon decided to end the Undertaker's historic WrestleMania 21-0 streak. I and many of the wrestling fans didn't want to see that streak to end but WWE wanted to shock the world, which they did, but that was it for me. Streak was ended by Brock Lesnar, who was pretty much a part-time wrestler at that time (and still is apparently). After WrestleMania 30 in 2014, I did watch some segments and matches from WWE, but it wasn't fun anymore.      The announcement of a brand new promotion, AEW, really caught my eye. Major WWE superstars joined AEW from the very first day, including Chris Jericho, Jake Hagger (aka Jack Swagger), and Jon Moxl...
