With Deus Ex: Mankind Divided offered to PS4 Plus members, my library is packed with full of half-eaten titles. For the most part FallOut, 4 is my main diet with StarWars Battlefront II getting some occasional screen time.
Over the holidays I had to really steal gaming time (30-40 mins a day) and it was barely quality as I sat in the kitchen trying to rank up and complete missions. It was a great time though but now it’s back to work, work and play.
Star Wars Spoiler alert: Almost a year after real actor Carrie Fisher died, I treated myself to a solo cinema run to see The Last Jedi. This production was a real salute to the original and it’s poignant to think that all the main heroes are now all gone, Leia, Luke and Solo.
I love the little touches that feature Leia original distress hologram and Han Solo’s dice.
I left the movie with a wonderful glowing feeling that went back to my childhood but knowing that I must move on. Nostalgia is great but it can tie you down, a theme that was repeated again and again in the movie.
So, 2018 will be my year of not looking back and like Yoda says “The greatest teacher failure is.”
Working or gaming. What difference does it make? Well, in most people’s heads, work is honourable and Gaming is not. This attitude maintains the digital divide between gaming professionals and everybody else.
Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice is a beautiful mind game. The screen warning only appears for 2 seconds and it’s clear from the outset that this game could mess with your mind.
The game’s opening credits feature a mental health advisor and it’s interesting that not many people are streaming it right now. Anyhow, this looks like a tasty treat for me to tackle this month.

I took a chance, called PlayStation Support in LA about my failed DLC install and actually got through to a human being who quickly proceeded an unexpected refund.
Total result.
Now I’m a happy gamer again…it was only $14.99 but the principle was everything. Anyhow, looks like I won’t be wondering the Horizon Dawn landscape for now unless I complete the game in my UK profile then purchase the DLC for the UK market.
