Are you still playing Destiny?

No I'm not trying to be an asshole here, I'm seriously asking if you still play Destiny. Just like a year ago I got tired of Destiny the Taken King after a month, because I kind of got everything I could get on my own and then there was a whole lot of nothing. Oh sure there's always the same old crap but that gets old real fast. But now Destiny has Sparrow racing and more things are coming to Destiny so the question is are you still playing destiny or would you return to Destiny now?


Sparrow racing?


A sparrow is a type of speeder bike that allows you to move quickly when you're exploring, some sparrows are faster and more agile then others but usually you should be able to control them at top speed. So people asked about sparrow races since the first Destiny and now they're finally here, sparrow races and it looks actually quite interesting. You race against five other players and you get rewards at the end of the race as if you completed a mission or strike. The rewards could be shaders, emblems, sparrows and gear (there's probably more but that's what I saw so far). So it's worth giving it a try to unlock some unique items! I would like to add that the commentary during the race is quite annoying, Amanda Holiday and your ghost are commenting everytime when you get to first place or when someone takes first place from you. Imagine hearing that ten times during one race, yeah you get tired of that real fast!


There's more coming to Destiny?


Well if we have to believe Bungie we get more stuff coming to Destiny, in 2016 we'll get another event (something like festival of the lost) and there are also plans for big updates that compare to the Taken King. What that all means right now is still a mystery but at least you could say that Destiny is still alive, eventhough a lot of players have moved on to other games and I can't really blame them. I guess some people just don't want to spend too much time on one game when there are so many more awesome games out there.


What does Destiny need?


I would love to see some more love for the single players in Destiny, because all this time Bungie talks about you being a legend (your character in the game) or at least you become one but all I see is me needing other people to take down certain enemies. I don't know about you but I don't feel like I'm a legend if I can't beat enemies on my own. So how about forging a single player story where you can do some awesome things and actually feel like your character is a legend, where he or she can do some insane things and have to face overwhelming numbers. I guess the majority prefers to play with other players and that's fine, but as long as that is the way to play I'll just play other games.

Button bashing

It seems that more and more games want you to smash on the buttons of the controller, which seems like fun but knowing that this weak piece of plastic can´t handle much it´s not the smartest way to handle your controller. In the good old arcade days I could smash on buttons, ok nothing too crazy but at least those machines had a lot more resilience than these weak controllers we have now. You have to pay a small fortune for one of them and they fall apart with the slightest bit of force you use. After smashing a couple of controllers out of frustration I learned to be careful with them, but when games force you to be an agressive button basher it doesn´t really help. Button bashing is nothing new but I do seem to see it in more and more games, even games that could easily do without this abusive way of treating your controller. Instead of button bashing people came up with the idea to press a certain series of buttons in a sequence, I first saw this in God of War which was fun. But s...

Movie Monday: Mr & Mrs Smith

There are movie that might not look good at first, when you hear about it, but once you see the movie then you know that it's a fantastic movie. What really made Mr & Mrs Smith so good was the acting of the two main stars in the movie, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. They had so much fun making this movie that it's an absolute joy to watch the movie. Which is good news for people that are looking for a fun movie to watch! Married to a spy? The story of Mr & Mrs Smith is pretty simple, a man is a spy and marries to a woman not knowing that she's a spy too. Apparently both of them are unaware of eachothers activities until their paths cross in their spy life, which leads to a lot of fighting and explosions. It's really not the action that makes this movie so much fun to watch but it's the humour. Mr & Mrs Smith is the type of movie that shows that a movie can be ten times better when the actors are actually enjoying themselves making this movie, instead ...

Sinful Sunday: Why are you so serious?

When I play a game I don't want to be serious, I just want to have fun and relax. Honestly real life is serious enough and I don't need that in games. Who cares who wins or who loses, just have fun and that already makes it great! Unfortunately there are gamers that take certain games way too serious, so serious that they literally forget to have fun which is quite frustrating to deal with. These kind of players are so serious that they probably left the fun behind when they started the game. Sigh... Serious gamers are lame gamers? There is nothing wrong about being serious, but I think there is a time and a place for everything. When I play a game with my friends then I'm not being serious nor am I serious when I start up some random multiplayer match. Sure it's nice to win but it's not everything! Things become more serious when there is something at stake, for example in ranked matches or during a tournament. I understand that things are more serious there an...
