We Are No Longer In The Negative Zone (Gaming Thread)

I was told that I shouldn't have an opinion nor should I say anything negative in these weekly gaming threads.

Not being negative is something I tried this week but having no opinion on the other hand was just something I couldn't do. I'm sorry

• Microsoft isn't going to this year's TGS. I said I wouldn't do anything negative so......

• Can't say I expected Ubisoft to do a licensed Gravity Falls on the 3DS

• PC sales continues to think happy thoughts. And this last quarter, they really really need to think with all their brain power.

• Eh, people are confusing the 2 year probation that the Lizard Squad member got last week. That sentence is from massive credit card fraud that happened before he got implicated with the DDOS stuff him and his mates did. Sentencing for the DDOS, bomb threats and other stuff should happen later this year. Finland continues to be a bastion of the jail system that Paulians want.

• So in a short few days we've gone from "Nintendo is washing it's hands with the idea of releasing Devil's Third in US" to people complaining because the release schedule is bare to Nintendo downplaying the rumors and that they are in fact bringing it to the States.

• Square with the Minecraft homage in Dragon Quest Builders.

• This Star Wars Battle Pod unboxing by ArcadeHeroes is real sexy

• So Activision finally showed off the zombie mode for the upcoming Black Ops III. It's actually a nice change of pace from the last two.

• They also showed off the Black Ops III $200 Collector's Edition. At first, I giggled but getting a small mini fridge for an extra $100 is actually a pretty good deal.

A week filled with 2 remasters, Godzilla and a ruptured ankle.

God of War III (PS4) - Well, no negativity so I can say it's a nice looking "remaster" of the best game in a series staring an emo dude (that wasn't negative).

Deception IV (PS4) - The fourth entry in the classic Rube Goldberg building base defense series is getting a "remaster" for the PS4.

Rory McIlroy PGA Tour (PS4 & XBO) - I've been playing this on EA Access and if you thought The Game Club was too in your face with it's presentation, this will treat you well. And if you thought that there was too many courses in the last Tiger Woods games, they're doing you a solid by dropping that number down to 12 real courses including liberating you from playing on Augusta because they know that you played that course so much in the last games. The game comes packed with features like making the game harder by changing up the button timing in 3 click and by adding realism in removing camera angles with the new Tour setting.

Godzilla (PS3 & PS4) - It looks okay-ish and the roster of kaiju are an interesting mix. Ah hell, like Dragonball, we're never getting a good Godzilla branded game. The sooner you grasp that, the easier it is to bury the faults in the games. The fact that Ultraman and Kamen Rider actually have had decent games (not many but a few) while Godzilla languishes (say that while have NECA's Godzilla figure based on the NES game pre-ordered) is disappointing but it's the sad truth. If you want an actual good kaiju game, go play King of The Monsters.

I was doing good on not being negative until the end. My bad
