So when I heard that EA had turned “Battlefront II” into a cash-grabbing machine, I promised myself that I would never buy the game. My PS4 is adorned with a Darth Vader decal like many other die-hard Star Wars fans, I take the handling of my beloved franchise personally. Needless to say, the launch of “Battlefront II” is regarded as one of the most disappointing in video game history, and to many, it seemed like the death of EA’s exclusive gaming bid to Star Wars content.Īs a huge fan of the EA’s first “ Star Wars: Battlefront” (2015) game, I was heartbroken by the launch in 2017. The added randomness of the loot box system was so concerning that even lawmakers got involved, alleging that the game encouraged minors to gamble. On top of the game originally costing $ 60, the only way to progress through the game was by unlocking a series of purchasable “ loot boxes,” essentially giving players an option to pay to win their matches. Despite absolutely breathtaking graphics and a huge display of new Star Wars content, the game was plagued by the obvious corporate greed from its publisher, EA. Like countless others, I was outraged when “Battlefront II” originally dropped on Nov. To be honest, I never thought I’d be defending a game that I originally hated so much. Despite its initial controversy at launch, “ Star Wars: Battlefront II ” ( 2017) is a masterpiece of a video game, and through a series of reworks and content updates, it has evolved into what I believe is one of the best action shooter games of our generation. While this may be enough to cause some people to put down the joysticks, I’m here to make the case for one more game that should be given a chance. Seeing people find joy in their individual games in ways they haven’t in years is a much-needed beam of light right now.īut on the other hand, what happens once you realize that you’re craving something new from a game? It’s a stale feeling that many other avid gamers may know - most recently, I felt it after my 14th consecutive round getting pummeled by another kid on “Fortnite” (2017). Whether you’re playing Minecraft, Animal Crossing or even whipping out Call of Duty and NBA 2K, now is the time to get back into the franchises that made you fall in love with gaming in the first place. With recent developments requiring all of us to be forced to stay inside, it’s no surprise that the past month has brought us the cultural re-emergence of tons of beloved video games. ![]() Official Windows XP SP3 installer and ISO image is now available for download from Microsoft Download Center. ![]() It’s also possible to download MSDN released Windows XP with SP3 integrated install CD.

Just as Yamcha is about to attack again, he sees Bulma. Yamcha thinks he has won after he uses his Wolf Fang Fist, but Goku is able to get up. While they walk through the desert, Yamcha and his shape shifting cat Puar ambush them. Yamcha, a dangerous bandit, is said to live in this desert. Their boat runs out of gas, so they have to walk through the desert.

To protect his identity, he reverts into his original state after he transformed and runs away from the village. When Oolong discovers this, he gets very angry. Oolong wants to marry a girl in the village, so Goku dresses up like her to trick Oolong. An old woman in this village has the Six-Star Ball, and she agrees to give it to them if they drive Oolong away from their village. They find that the village is being terrorized by a shape shifter named Oolong. The Dragon Radar leads Goku and Bulma into a remote village.

After he tells them that he gave it away, the three leave his island. When Master Roshi returns to his island, he finds Pilaf and his two henchmen searching his house for the Dragon Ball. Roshi also gives Bulma the Three-Star Ball in exchange for seeing her underwear, not knowing what the Dragon Ball is. Bulma can't ride it either, but Goku can, because he has a good heart. Master Roshi himself cannot ride the cloud, because only good and pure people can. That man is the turtle hermit: Master Roshi, and as a reward for helping his sea turtle, he gives Goku a flying cloud called the Flying Nimbus. When he comes back, a man is riding on his back. When they arrive at the shore, the turtle tells them to wait for him. Goku makes short work of him, and they continue on their way. On their way to the sea, Goku and Bulma run into a giant beast that wants to eat the turtle.

In the morning, he finds a Giant turtle who is looking for the sea. Goku saves them from wolves, and heads back. The Emperor is also looking for the Dragon Balls, and he plans to use them to achieve his dream to rule the world. The plane belongs to Mai and Shu, who are servants of Emperor Pilaf.

Before Goku's grandfather died, he gave him a Dragon Ball with four stars on it: the Four-Star Ball. The balls that Bulma is searching for, known as Dragon Balls, summon the wish granting "dragon god", Shenron.

And you don't want to get stuck watching a clichéd supernatural slasher that's no different from a million other supernatural slashers. ![]() And the thing about horror movies is that it can be hard to tell a bad one from a good one based on its Netflix tile alone. The "horror" tab on the Netflix app can be pretty overwhelming because there are dozens upon dozens of titles. The movies come from all over the world, and just about every horror subgenre you can think of is represented, from haunted house movies and slashers to sci-fi action-horror and character-driven zombie movies. In fact, it feels like the streaming service gets a new licensed or original fright flick every week. Netflix is constantly adding new horror movies. The future Sims 4 expansions better add 2 or more life states for each expansion to make up for this because this is really rubbish. I seriously hope they add a life state back in before release cause this is really making me frustrated. To make it even more worse The Sims 4's trademark line is that you can have Weird and Quirky sims and yet here they are removing lifestates from an expansion pack like what the hell. They are literally the embodiment of all things weird about the Sims series. The only reason i play the Sims series is because they add these Life States which are amazing and add so much to the game, Life States are also the only reason i heard of The Sims series. This makes me so disappointed in this expansion pack, im doubting if its even an expansion and more of a Game Pack because of the already alarmingly low content for an expansion.

On the one hand, it makes it possible to admire the wild nature, various locations, and feel like a hunter. Summing up, I would like to say that the game turned out to be ambiguous.

I can pretty much guarantee you that no libraries want to restrict their items, but are often forced to do so as a library who has a particular resource that no one else does or does a great job of having the new titles asap will find people outside of the customer base that their funding is supposed to support making wait times etc longer for their customer base.Audiobooks have become a thing for many book lovers in recent years. Libraries have to buy the titles that are in their collections, and the have to buy extra copies of the titles to have enough copies to keep the wait times on holds down. ![]() Its also not generally the subscription cost that is expensive, its the content within the subscription. Negotiating as a consortium is complicated and requires a lot of cooperation (which is not always something librarians do well!). This is all after they have negotiated for the overall pot of funding from their councils etc. Often digital collections will get allocated an amount of money to be split between their products and then the librarians have to work out how to spread it around. There is so many things competing for the funding within the library (services, technology, programs, physical collections, buildings, etc) all of them have to fight to get the funds they need. Allocation of funding within the grants provided by councils and state governments to libraries is linked to usage, eg if a product is getting more usage, a larger slice of the funding is generally allocated to it, but higher usage is unlikely to lead to a bigger overall pot of funding for the library service. |
