Couple of new things I've been playing

Nintendo Switch
The big N's new console the portable and home console that totally isn't a 3ds replacement and won't lead to that thing getting no more games.

Dead Rising 4

People who have played DR1 and 2 will remember a fun but incredibly hard game that tried to have loads of zombies on screen at once (somewhat hampered by the hardware of the day such that all the areas had to have loading splits) it's everything's a weapon game style, somewhat troubling photography mechanic that credited "erotic" shots, and punishingly tight timed rescue missions where you had to save a survivor then escort them to safety that at higher levels clashed so it was impossible to complete everything, the super tough mini boss battles.

Some more games I've played recently

Fairly standard upgrades faster a dedicated fpv camera and then micro 4/3rd 4k sensor with interchangeable lens mounts for primary cameras and it will shoot in raw mode and record direct to an onboard pcie ssd (probably m.2 by the looks of it)

It has the phantom 4 obstacle avoidance systems and now an upward looking sensor to avoid obstructions above it

better battery life faster speeds

Some games I have been playing recently and thoughts

Looks like the world is going to hell in a handbasket.

It's bloody typical that I just get my green card only to have this country slip off the deep end by electing human embodiment of the colour orange and generally terrible human being DJ Drumph as their president

So I've never really got on with skyrim it seems fun and so on but I always feel a bit disconnected from the world it doesn't pull me in for some reason. On it's close cousin Fallout I've spent loads of time and on the recent fallout 4 I've done multiple play throughs in different characters and gone back to it several time as more things have come along but with skyrim I start off do some bits and then something else comes along and I abandon it.

So shadow warrior was a remake of an earlier duke 3d based game that was swords and guns and piles of gore.

Shadow warrior 2 is more of the same but adds in a load of weapons and a gem's system to augment and change the abilities and damage of the weapons.

So I had a preorder in for PSVR since before I got my holiday cash out that allowed me to buy the vive and I was wavering back and forth between getting the thing as well or canceling it.

Some of the prerelease reviews eventually convinced me to go with it and get one and it turned up today and these are my first impressions having played some of the demos that come with it.
