Far Cry 5

With all the new Far Cry games coming out I thought that I would try my hand at one of them. Seeing as the newer ones were more expensive, and I didn't have much money, I decided to try and start at Far Cry 5. Already I am having the time of my life playing this game. It is an extraordinary adventure.

At first my hopes weren't very high for this game. I played Far Cry games on the Xbox 360, and yeah it was fun, but I didn't think it really was all that.

Hope County is an area ran and controlled by the Peggies. The Peggies are solders of the Eden's Gate cult. Eden's Gate is a cult run by a leader named Joseph, or "The Father." He is a mad man ruling people under the belief that they are all the chosen one's of God.

This is a twisted way to take something that is good and control people with it, turning them against everyone that does not agree. I'm sure Christian's are not violent people running around with guns killing anyone that apposes them. Eden's Gate is a cult that uses brainwashing techniques to control people's minds and bend them to their will. Forcing them to conform or die. They also use certain techniques to control wolfs and other animals. One of the missions is to destroy the Wolf Beacon towers to stop the wolves from attacking.

Missions are based in three different regions of the county. Each region is run by 3 followers one step bellow Joseph. You must take control of the areas by freeing prisoners of the cult and taking over areas of the map.

I would suggest this game to anyone that loves open worlds. The weapons wheel expands to an second crafting wheel with different consumables for enhancing your experience and giving you an added benefit towards defeating the enemy of the cult. Enjoy yourself as there is allot to do in this game.

Just by walking around or driving you will can find yourself in trouble. Many opportunities are available to take down the cult of Eden's Gate. Destroy vehicles and free prisoners from transport van's as you drive around.

Hunting is an extra bonus to this game. You can unlock new areas for hunting by adventuring or finding maps located randomly through out the game. Fishing is another great part to this game. You will find many spots to fish different types of game. Fish and animal's skins can be sold for a fair price at any shop. There are Gun Shops, Boat Shops, Helicopter Shops, and shop shops. lol

I hope this gives you a little insight into the great adventure of this game, and maybe next time your looking for something to play you can pick up this challenge. It can be an ongoing game with extra DLC's. Play Co-Op on missions with your friends.

Welcome

This blog is being put together for gamers that want the best games for an affordable price still with amazing graphics. Who want's a PS4 or XBox One game with crappy graphics?

For the longest time I struggled financially, in fact I was completely broke, my life was a mess and I was homeless. Coming from a background in computers and gaming systems it was a nightmare for me. Now 2 years later I’m living in Florida with a PS4, a new computer and 3 flat screen TVs. 

It was, Christmas, 1985 when my parents gave me the best present a kid could ever have; an original Nintendo gaming system. I loved that Nintendo SOO much I would play games like Mario Bros and Legend of Zelda over and over again. The classic’s many my age would agree. Having been very young at the time I wasn't very good at games. I struggled to complete Mario Bros and when I did I played it all over again. Zelda, I still to this day, have not yet finished. Zelda what a great game that was! One of the first and greatest RPG video games I had ever played and I loved it! From that day on my most favorite style games where: RPG(role-playing games), ARPG(action role-playing games) and MMORPG(massively multiplayer) online role-playing games. Although I don’t really get in to much of the MMORPG, I tend to like a solo single player campaign mode. At the time I had no idea that these games were based off of a known earlier tabletop RPG called D&D(Dungeons and Dragons). D&D was first introduced by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson in 1974.

My second gaming system was a GameCube. Being a skater-boy in my past, naturally I loved the Tony Hawk gaming series. I was addicted to the gap finding and completing the challenges. This gave me an early love for today's video games like Destiny, Horizon Zero Dawn, Fallout, Assassin’s Creed, Darksiders, and Tomb Raider. 

My next system was an Xbox 360 which was affordable to me at the time, although I had longed for a PS3. God Of War was a series I had heard of, but never played since I hadn’t ever owned a PlayStation. That was the sole reason for me getting a PlayStation 4 latter on.

When I finally got some extra cash to spend on a new gaming system I looked around for a PS4 that I could afford. Time after time I fell into the same loop that I had fallen into before with the Xbox 360. I could afford an Xbox One but couldn’t afford a PS4. So I told myself, maybe Xbox One isn’t so bad. The next day I was on my way to the pawn shop to pick up an Xbox One that was in my price range. All my friends where PS4 lovers and I too wanted to join the elite club of PS4 owners, but I figured I was going to have to settle pm an Xbox One. But it didn't have God Of War, oh well maybe next time. “NO,” a voice in my head screamed. I had one other place I could check. Bingo! That was it! The next pawn shop I arrived at had a PS4 for the same price as the Xbox One at the other pawn shop. I couldn’t believe. I had exactly enough to get it but not enough to buy God Of War. So of course it had to be the first PS4 game I rented. It seemed I was more excited about finally joining the PS4 Sony  club. Not only was it a PlayStation but it was a PlayStation 4! I felt like I finally stepped into the future and joined my fellow comrades in the PS4 generation. The graphics and game play where more than a hundred times better than any Xbox 360 game I had played in the past. So I never finished God Of War for the fact that I wanted to see what else was out there. Also because I had outstanding late fees and I still wanted to use that video store. Ooops! 

This blog is my best video game blog. You will find reviews of games I’ve seen and played that I feel are worthy of posting. It is always best to check out different reviews of any video games before you make your finally decision. $60 for a brand new game can be costly, and if you’re like me and have late charges from places like Red Box, lol, you might need to look around before making a finally decision on your next purchase. I myself use gamefly.com to rent the games I can’t afford. I use PlayStation Store with a PlayStation Plus membership to buy games I can afford. Gamefly.com offers rentals of any video game or movie, to keep as long as you like starting at $15 a month, first month free. SOO much more affordable than paying $60 for a game you may or may not even like. For example; I loved the Fallout games. So I decided to just go ahead and buy Fallout 76 when it first came out. I was sure I would play that game forever, but that was before it kind a fell apart. It’s been months now since I last played Fallout 76. In fact I’ve actually deleted it from my PS4 system to free up more room for other games. Hmmm. Seems like try it before you buy it makes sense now doesn’t it? I will try my hardest to post the best deals and times for affordable worth it video games. If I find any game cheaper anywhere else I will follow it up with a review and post it. Make sure to check out my top 10 video games for each month also.
