From the Source: Square-Enix... Adventures of Mana... for Vita + About the Vita!


This brings back... memories... friends chilling out gaming until the crack of dawn... waking up around 11am... refreshing and doing it all over again. Good times. (SIGH)

Before you scroll down to the game news (that's also about the Vita... via the game you see here), I just want to say that I personally think the Vita still has a chance to please even more gamers... if +PlayStation gives it the love and attention it needs for the long haul. I'm not even talking on the lines of being a competitor to the Nintendo handheld(s).


As a matter of fact... to hell with that argument. As long as the... MEMORY CARDS are reasonably priced (the hardware is practiced attractively) and developers keep on building up to what is quite the sweet library, it could be... something worth purchasing no matter what else you have. If enough of a supportive base is there, that works... and some people love longevity instead of the constant forking out of money for the latest after just 2 years or so. Some games take 2 years to make. I'd love to play re-imagined titles of the past (from PS1 & 2) remade for the Vita. Not every single game (because some games sucked) but these yesterday systems are purchased for good reason... and something tells me it has a little something to do with the available library.

New tech is good, but I think a new Vita 2 and it's technical enhancements... would gain more praise for having less dependency on 1st party memory cards.

To piggy back off what Yang is saying... hmmm, even if Sony wants the sales of their cards to be the only ones for the system, it's not smart. No matter what card is purchased (which some would likely be too slow for what the tech requires, but for the compatible ones) they would be purchased... for the purpose of being used with the handheld. So that would be another owner of the hardware, giving developers more potential sales for games. More power to the system and any growth it gets with the growing library... as long as the gamers benefit well. Game on!

The next expansion will be reviewed soon... so stay tuned and... game on!


Showtime aka E3... everything!

Do we really need to explain what's going on this week? Not for everyone, but (but... but) we are going to say it anyway(!)... "It's time for E3 2016!". So what we plan on doing is making this the link for E3 everything, including the things around the E3 window... and slightly after. I'm going to kick back, eat some left over pizza (#NomNom) and enjoy. Join me (just scroll below). ;) 

So stay tuned, share, subscribe and game on!

Hit refresh at times because you may find that something new was posted!


Took awhile, but I took out the Elusive Target. My tip to you would be to look at the specific building and go there to shave down on time, unless they don't give a specific area within a location.
There is some lag due to some high encoding, OBS was notified.

By the way... we're in Orlando, so we couldn't exactly bring news yesterday. It was rather chaotic with the shooting, but what you may not have heard is that the mass shooting was the 4th incident that occurred this past week. Which included the situation with the singer.

When I see stuff like this, I can't help but think of the number of crazies out here who pride themselves on either being irrationally crazy to a murderous extent... or they're simply just crazy as hell and they don't realize it. There are plenty that game too and want to be included with those of us who do not deserve a finger pointed in our direction. They stand alone unless they're with an organization committed to such things. PEACE!

Now that I've gotten that off my chest... lets get back to the action.


I think this is going to be an upswing for PC gamers because low to mid range is usually the peak for the majority of PC gamers. I just might build a new AMD based system. ZhÄ“n bàng!

No expectations for E3 this year... we're just enjoying... what there is to enjoy. We were talking and that where we ended up, no expectations keeps it simple, eliminates potential disappointment... but if we see something awesome (cool)!

Yet another reason why gaming is awesome! + More!

Deus Ex this... that... etc.

In this article, you're getting SDGT's full attention. Not only by way of the coolness from the Deus Ex world, but because of something really cool that has emerged. You also have the option of being a part of it.

Seriously... for the people who think gaming is just a waste of time. Obviously you're just too close minded to give it a chance, but I can still respect the fact that you don't wish to play video games. Everyone has their preferences, but don't dump on the people that do, especially if they aren't hurting anyone and it either part of their career or not interfering with life's necessities. 

If your hobby is something else, enjoy it, but some of us happen to prefer gaming as a hobby. Before I get into a full on write up about that, the reason for this post is something awesome that is coming out of gaming (yet again) for the greater good of people (no matter if they game or not).

Check out the video, and ask yourself... seriously... if gaming is just a waste of time or if some awesome things can come of it. What you see in this video will help multiple people in my opinion.

What do you think of this cool collaboration?


To keep the Deus Ex action going, here is nearly 18 minutes of gameplay action from the City-Hub Gameplay Demo:

I can't wait to get back into the world of Deus Ex. Square-Enix has been going hard, and I commend the individual development studios for kicking butt because new entries to these franchises have been fantastic. 

I don't want to say that the old ones suck, but i'm glad to see the franchises reach the point they have reached.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is coming August 23rd, 2016!




Want more out of your Deus Ex experience?

How's about an arcade experience at no additional cost? Deus Ex: Mankind Divided... will have a mode known as "Breach"... that places you into a virtual world that deserves to be enjoyed in VR (in addition to the overall Deus Ex experience). I still don't have a full understanding of this experience, but a faster paced experience to change things up... is a plus.

We were also delivered Deus Ex: Mankind Divded - Breach




Oh... and before I wrap things up, Mobile gamers are not being left out of the awesomeness. 

Even though the action could've been longer in the trailer (Square-Enix)... Deus Ex Go, looks like it could be very interesting. What i'm curious about mostly is... how they're going to change things up to fit the Deus Ex world. I don't just want to navigate from point to point in a dull layout.

Just like in Lara Croft Go & Hitman Go, you get a different feel in art style... and I want to see how the world can be presented in this game. Having cities to play through would be cool and with what I've experienced thus far in the GO game's, I have faith that it would work out well.


+1, Share, Get your hands on some ISG apparel and... Game on!
