As the next generation of game consoles get ready to roll out, a good friend has opted to give me the long-term use of his PS4.
I am so totally stoked.
During a rough financial patch, a few years back, I had to sell mine in order to keep the heat on and put food on our table. I’ve missed it, ever since. Over the past couple of weeks, I got to finally finish Fallout 4 (with all of the DLC!) as well as Batman: Arkham Knight. But there’s still like, almost five years of games out there, that I’ve never had the opportunity to play. I’m betting scads of them are less expensive to purchase now, as well—Once we’re out of our sublet and back into the RV, storage will be at a premium, so I’ll likely go digital downloads only. As we’ll be living in seclusion on Vancouver Island, this fall and winter, having the console to help keep me from going insane (or at least building on the level of insanity that I’ve already achieved), is going to be such a welcome comfort.
I’ve got a copy of Red Dead Redemption III to noodle with. Any advice on what titles I should pick up? I like story-driven RPGs and open-world games. Straight ahead shooters and online games aren’t my thing.

Even after months of working from home, you’d be forgiven for thinking the whole experience still doesn’t quite feel…well, normal. In addition to all the obvious environmental changes of handling your 9 to 5 from your den or dining room table, the technological aids you didn’t realize you loved back at the office probably don’t […]

Running a small business drops a lot on to the plate of just one person. And between juggling a dozen tasks that need to get handled daily, it’s no surprise that there are a dozen more equally vital tasks that can just as easily go overlooked. While posting to social channels and making web posts […]
