Mass Effect and Ninja Gaiden 2 Black (I salute thee, Game Pass!). In terms of physical copies, I got Call of Duty: WWII on the PS4 (about a month and a half ago). It was brilliant. Best graphics I've ever seen on a PS4 game, lots of intense action and smooth transitions between playing as infantry and driving vehicles. Frankly, I think it's one of the best games of the last generation.

Unfortunately, originality is dying. To know that a game as good as this failed to meet expectations is very depressing. Everything nowadays is a shooter or an open world game.

A quick-time event is a part of a cutscene in which a button appears on the screen and you have to quickly mash that button in order to avoid dying. Resident Evil 4 is an example of a game that uses them. I don't like them very much because I prefer to watch a cutscene. When I'm playing through a game that I've never completed before, I always hold on to my controller during a cutscene, because a QTE could happen at any moment.

What about you guys? do you like quick-time events?

I'm guessing a 7.5 -- it's a poor man's Elder Scrolls. Still will be a solid game though, and I am looking forward to playing it.

Definitely Devil May Cry, except the third one, which was too hard for me; I never made it past the second level. I'm somewhat of a wimp. DMC 4 & 5 were excellent though. I especially liked using V in DMC5.

I'll be busy with Ninja Gaiden II Black. I'm enjoying the Lunar staff a lot more than I did when I played the Xbox 360 version of Ninja Gaiden II (back in the day.) It plows through enemies like a hot knife through butter.

I'm surprised by that. But anyhow, I'm glad that the cows will get to enjoy it. I'm happy for them.

In Tony Hawk's Underground, you get to drive a car in the first level (New Jersey, I believe.) The controls are some of the worst I've ever experienced. It's not a racing game, so I suppose I can forgive them, but still, it's remarkably bad.

@DEVILinIRON: Comic books work too :)

I only read books about religion/sprituality. I have several Bibles, Qur'ans, Bhagavad Gitas and Books of Mormon. Right now I'm reading the Book of Isaiah, which is in the Bible, as well as 'Lectures To My Students' by Charles Spurgeon. Spurgeon was a 19th-century english pastor who's teachings are still widely revered among christians.

Religious books are very much classic literature :)

On the topic of the bible. Have you read any of the Apocrypha?

I've read the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox apocrypha. I bought an NRSV [New Revised Standard Version] for that very purpose. However, I haven't read the Ethiopian Orthodox apocrypha. They have a bunch of books that aren't in other Bibles, like 1 Enoch.
