Like Cher once said: "If I could turn back time!" Well, most of us did this morning or maybe last night or maybe a combination of the two. You know who didn't? Our pets. The dog was like it's 5:30 and then the cat got into the act. I told them both to chill their buts and tried to go back to sleep. Made it to 6am...or so I thought. I forgot to turn the alarm clock in our room back. In truth i didn't turn any clocks back last night so I got up at 6am, let the dogs out and played some Destiny 2. It wasn't until about 7:30 when Mrs-Soup came downstairs that I looked at my watch which was now in conflict with the microwave by an hour. Sonofabitch! An extra hour to play games then? Maybe...maybe not. I still had stuff to do...like write this article!
Football Manager 2022
Platforms: Android, iOS, Mac, PC, Switch, Xbox One, Xbox XSX/S
Release Date: November 9th, 2021
Unleash your inner Ted Lasso (or Coach Beard, or be a traitor like Nate) on on every platform except, oddly enough, Playstation. I have heard that Sega and Xbox have been going out partying, hanging out, having dinner, etcc a lot lately sooooo...maybe thats why?!?! Either way, if you think you have what it takes to avoid relegation...well in the immortal words of Roy Kent "Fuck it! Just buy it you little twat!"
Jurassic World Evolution 2
Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox XSX/S
Release Date: November 9th, 2021
There was a time when I remembered what the old guys name was in the original Jurassic Park Movie. If you said it i would likely know it. Yes I could look it up. Google knows all but that would just make me look..well...like an ass. Anyway, apparently it is Sim Week (like Shark week but...I was gonna say "less bitey", but chances are someone is going to get eaten by a Velociraptor or T-rex...so probably not) so if football (soccer) is not your thing, maybe dino's are?
Forza Horizon 5
Platforms: PC, Xbox One, Xbox XSX/S
Release Date: November 9th, 2021
If you noped out on Footy and did the same with Dino's..maybe cars are up your alley? Street racing in Mexico? Come on! Seriously!?!? How can this not be fun?!?! Have you seen the commercial? To tie this all back - "Forza is Liiiiiiiiffffe!"
PUBG: New State
Platforms: Android, iOS
Release Date: November 11th, 2021
I tried this on my phone, I tried fortnite on my phone. I tried Homeworld on my phone. All with the same result. Phone gets burning hot, battery drains fast, I'm old and apparently have fat digits which cover half the action. Basically it's a no go for me. Yes I have used an Xbox controller for these but then that just drains the battery even faster! if PUBG is your thing and your thing is on Mobile then all the power to you!
