EPTReally though, just pay the 4$ for the bundle you guys. It's the cost of a cheeseburger and the games are so worth it.

I got it in the pack but never really played it lol eh. it's this really basic puzzle platformer where you can rotate the level around, and everything is 2d. there's no depth perception so a platform might be far away in one view and right next to you if you tap rotate. Actually I just described literally everything you do in the game, you just rotate until you find a platform is now next to you and then jump to it, repeat. It's very pretty, but the levels are all connected in this open world setup which makes navigation a nightmare, and there's really nothing to it once the novelty wears off. I recommend playing like 30-40 minutes of it if you get it free and then firing something else up. | ||

Past month me and my cousins working on a deck for my rich uncle in preparation for his first daughter's wedding (my generation's first to get married from my mother's side). Basically been spending more or less 12-16 hours a weekend digging giant holes in rock-infested ground, cementing, carrying loads of bricks/logs/cement/posts, and other random shit. I can only imagine what large-scale landscaping must be like. I've been pretty active in the gym working my back area for a few months now, but shit this is a different pain/burn you don't get at the gym. | ||

As someone who worked as an Oil Field Fitter, its being smart with how you work. If something is potentially over your comfort lifting on your own, then you bet 2 guys will be doing it. Also, you get training on how to lift properly without straining your back. Other thing: Cranes. Also, Cranes. Yeah, Cranes. | ||

Can you explain what you liked about the Last of Us? I finally played it like a week ago after spending the last two months listening to people tell me it's the best game they've ever played (without explaining why because "OMG I DON'T WANT TO SPOIL IT FOR YOU") and I found it very...meh. Maybe I just went into it expecting too much but it's hard to get a straight answer out of a lot of my friends lol. | ||

Maybe I just went into it expecting too much but it's hard to get a straight answer out of a lot of my friends lol. Well, if you go into it with a lot of hype nothing usually lives up to it. That said, it's an incredibly well made story-based and environmental game. It's not a revelation of gameplay, Naughty Dog hasn't done that since Crash. However, what they do make is interactive movies with stunning visuals, relatable and interesting characters, and action sequences that manage to be the right blend of cinematic and challenging. From the standpoint of a piece of "art" or "interactive medium", it's one of the best things ever made. But, like I said, if you're just in it for gameplay and don't care about story or environment/atmosphere, it will probably underwhelm you. Once you meet Bill and get about halfway through his portion, the story really takes off, I can see it being a bit slow beforehand. On the other hand, if the opening sequence didn't get to you, you probably have no soul. Sorry. | ||

As far as gameplay goes, the melee was very satisfying. I probably used my fists more than I used any of weapons. Beating on people was just too much fun. Sneaking up on people Metal Gear Solid style was also very fun. Also the nail grenades. THE NAIL GRENADES. GOOD GRAVY WERE THEY AWESOME. | ||
