Played 1600+ hours of Skyrim between the PS3 and PS4 editions. This says a lot considering I spent 600 in the Witcher 3 and 700 on Dragon Warrior IX on the DS. Loved playing as a Khajiit, Argonian and an Orc. With mods, Skyrim has near unlimited replayability.
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order smokes Death Stranding like a blunt on the topic of game of the month. Saying Death Stranding is a masterpiece is akin to saying Hooters Road Trip is the best racing game on the PS1. After playing 20 hours of Death Stranding, I can easily attest it is nothing but a glorified walking simulator with one of the dumbest stories for a AAA title. Even IGN scored Death Stranding less than a 7.
I frequently use Push Square's game review to help determine whether to purchase a game at full price or wait several months for a major discount. Not this time. I'm not sure what game the reviewer was playing, but Death Stranding should have been titled Fetch Quest Simulator: Walking Dread. Death Stranding is no better than a 7 out of 10.
It's one thing to censor a game featuring characters who look like pre-teens posing in less than flattering poses (unless you are a pedo), but to censor an adult game featuring adult characters on a console that has a history of being associated with an older audience... is pushing me to trash my PS4 and switch consoles. Sadly, Sony has not learned from the arrogance they exuded during the onset of the PS3's lifespan.
Restarted Skyrim 6 times on 2 different consoles while logging in 1400+ hours, played through Witcher 3 on three occacsions for 700+ hours, clocked 700+ hours on Dragon Quest IX for 3DS, and have no problems playing Odyssey for another 160 hours.
@Ralizah "Moral puritans smell blood in the water now, and they'll start pressuring Sony to have all sorts of stuff censored."
I am not a Puritan. This is not censorship because it basically boils down to child pornography.
In the past few years, I have played games where Geralt was played by two beautiful women, Hitler assassinating Ronald Reagan on Venus in alternative reality, witnessed the trials and tribulations in a zombie apocalypse of Clementine, relived the arcade days by playing a game with the most murders per seconds in video game history (Smash TV), perform fatalities for the sake of performing fatalities while grossing my friends out, going around Skyrim and murdering every inhabitant possible, etc. I have watched extremely violent films and even get mad when violent scenes are cut out. I've listened to horrorcore rap and Norwegian black metal.
I am not attacking anyone, but THIS IS NOT CENSORSHIP! This game involves pedophilia and child pornography. You have characters who look like they are 12 or 13 who are provocatively dressed. Point blank this is child pornography... and this is coming from someone who has played tons of games with adult themes over the past 40 years...
@JJ2 If this game involved live participants it would considered child pornography. It takes a sick human being to create an intimacy mode with characters who look under 13 in any form of media or entertainment.
Thanks for recommending Super Destronaut DX. It is an excellent game if you have 5 to 15 minutes to kill. My only real problems are the game play gets repetitive and the ensuing slow motion after scoring a power-up. Far from perfect, but definitely great for satisfying an itch for twitch arcade game play.
Worked part time in retail and grocery store apart from full time job: it deals with identity theft and stolen debit/credit cards. It is not unusual for someone to have a debit/credit card stolen and find numerous small charges from it. When my credit card was stolen some years ago, there were tons of purchases for less than $2.

Re: Deal: Sony Paints a New Price on Concrete Genie for Black Friday
This was a no-brainer at $20 and definitely worth the purchase!
Re: Deal: PS Plus Members Can Get Three Months of Official PlayStation Magazine UK for a Quid
OPM has to be imported like my Nintendo Switch Player magazine to physically read. Definitely worth the $$$.
