Gears of War 4, get the ultimate edition or not?

Tomorrow the ultimate edition for Gears of War 4 comes out and I think a lot of people are interested in getting that. Not just for some nice extras but probably also for the four days early acces. But is that really worth the extra money you have to pay for the game?


Ultimate or standard edition?


For me it's simple, I want to play Gears of War 4 but I can wait four more days to play it so I don't get the ultimate edition, because who cares that some players will have early acces to the game? It's not that this means you need to get it early as well, because in multiplayer a lot of things are settled with the gnasher shotgun or with power weapons so getting early acces probably gives you some map knowledge advantages for the first couple of days but I don't see how this makes me want to spend extra money on a game I can get for a normal price several days later. Sure the ultimate edition also has some extra goodies but you also get the season pass which is actually quite interesting. But I prefer not to buy the season pass for a game I haven't played yet. Ok I played the game in beta but I would first like to play the full game before I buy the season pass, that usually prevents disappointments. So if you want to get early acces to the game, want to get the season pass and other goodies then feel free to get the ultimate edition but if you're patient and first want to play the game before you decide you want to buy the season pass then I'll advice you to wait and get the standard edition.


Does it really matter?


I guess it doesn't really matter what you pick, I mean you get the game with both editions and if you got extra money to burn then feel free to get the ultimate edition but with all the other interesting games coming out this month I would definitely advice you to keep some money in reserve if you decide to buy one of those other games. Why put all your money on one game when you can get two or three? Well that's how I see it, maybe you see it different. In the end it doesn't really matter what you do, we all get the game with both editions and there is no real advantage to getting the ultimate edition so wether you want to spend extra money or not it doesn't really change that much. The most important thing is having fun and I think that Gears of War 4 will be a lot of fun to play!

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...
