“This is a present from a small distant world, a token of our sounds, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts, and our feelings.

This record represents our hope and our determination, and our good will in a vast and awesome universe.”

Today, I’d like to talk about an element of video gaming that is virtually not to be found among the classics. This is something that is a thorn in the side of modern gamers, something that reeks of calculated, corporate greed.
Today, despite my railings against the modern world, I set foot into the unknown waters of next-gen console gaming.
When life gives you lemons… prepare to be massively depressed. It can only mean everything you’ve ever hoped for has inexplicably been dashed into tiny pieces, microwaved till burnt, blown up and then vaporized by the surface of the sun. Today is the day the Man of Steel cried.
