Been playing Dead Space

I strolled into my local Gamestop this week looking for something good but cheap, and I saw a used Dead Space for $17 and figured "what the hell why not" and I must say it's one of the better games I've picked up in a while, game play was great, and the game while initially making me a little jumpy it just becomes a grind after a while.

I liked the Armor and Weapons system to the game, only thing though if you pace it right the game basically stays at the same difficulty the entire way through, now I'm playing through on Medium which is the default, which it plays very good on, not too hard or too easy for a vet gamer.

And here's he kicker, Gamestop has this program with used games that if you don't like it after a week you can either return for a full refund or get store credit towards another game.

So I picked up Dead Space and put a pre-order down on Red Dead and I'll return Dead Space on Monday and play Red Dead on Tuesday.

I do believe this is a good thing to take advantage of fellas.

I thought it was pretty lame. I have always been a big fan of survival horror games but they have just not been goo lately. Alan Wake might be the game to change that.

You have to play Dead Space on the hardest difficulty or it just plays like an action game. I found myself constantly out of ammo and getting slaughtered time and time again. I agree that the survival horror genre hasn't been the same since RE4 turned the genre more towards action and away from puzzle solving, but damn I loved Dead Space.

As for the gamestop return policy, there has to be some limit to it. Obviously people would take advantage of it, and if you're buying and returning a game every week the staff will eventually tell you to GTFO.

Oh and the fully upgraded plasma rifle = beast.

Is that the one where everything pops out waving their arms for 5 minutes before they attack?

In the beginning yeah, towards the middle they swarm a lot more and some faster enemies appear. This game isn't to difficult if you upgrade your armor and weapons quickly and spam the hell out of the stasis.

      some of my favorite mocks i do are trading back with Indy or Miami, but not Arizona, as that lets Hotlanta pick before us.

      Who Has to Be Off the Board to Trade Back?

      Carter, Graham, and Hunter for me. Other than that I'm listening to offers. Hell, I'm listening to offers anyway. I'm not doing the Gettleman thing of submitting the pick immediately. If the phones are ringing there's no cost to listening. Maybe someone has an offer so good that I can't refuse.

      These numbers do not measure a player's prime. Do these numbers include OL pulled up from the practice squad for a game or two then cut?  Do they include players who might have been injured or cut for reasons other than they were past their primes?  The average career for an NFL lineman is 3.63 years, and that is because there is a lot of turnover--regardless of a player's prime. In fact, if only 55% of Offensive linemen drafted in the first round succeed, then the failure rates of most offensive linemen drafted and undrafted would be much lower, cause them to skew the average age of the OL.  This suggests that most players' retirement from the NFL is not based on their prime, but other factors.  They are cut, released, injured--and that is based on their level of play compared to others, not their levels of play within their personal skill range--something that peaks during your prime. In this case, I was talking about Moton, an elite offensive tackle, one that avoided the factors that shorten careers unrelated to their primes. I identify Moton as the team's best offensive lineman on an impressive OL--that distinguishes the type of player being referenced, so I did not provide a lot of qualifiers--as you didn't with your stats.   In this article below, one that evaluates established Offensive tackles, it states the following, which supports my comment:  "Most elite offensive tackles start to decline at roughly the age of 32 if they haven’t already."  So to say that Moton was at the end of his prime was not a reach or careless speculation.  If a player has the skill to be competitive and they can avoid injuries, their career expectancy is much higher than an average of all offensive lineman on a fluid roster. https://www.milehighreport.com/2017/2/27/14724674/age-wall-for-offensive-tackles-nfl
