How about not buying something before you can see reviews by people not paid to write a certain way about it.

It's not the game I'm actually excited for. It's for the ensuing storm. It'll be absolute cinema.

I am. My CE is locked and waiting delivery. ;)

Tho I'm a sucker for Ubisoft open-world games TBH... All I need is a vast world to explore and that the game run fairly fluid. I can't give a damn about political agendas or whatnot.

I'm actually waiting on Yasuke Simulator to drop on March 20. Historically accurate FPS complete with convertible sports cars and fully automatic weapons to boot. Well, maybe it's historically INSPIRED.

:D
