Yup, New Age of gaming dawns - Shift in Consciousness


Who would've thought? I, for that matter, had no clue until recently. The Lord works in mysterious ways. We had fun, at least some.

What about you, what are your aspirations for the new age that dawns? What will it bring apart from peace, love, unity and spirituality. The end of duality, they claim is soon to happen. I guess it is true, the aliens, their loving help and enigmatic apparition, like a mirage. We are not alone.

When I think about it, gaming is probably not the first thing that will occupy my attention when the Event comes to fruition. The experience of reality is plainly too much to be ignored. Gaming will preserve a special place in my memory, until the time comes for this past to re-emerge from the slumber our evolving ways thwart it in. This will happen eventually and retro games are cool.

The RPG of life with all the new-found knowledge, strange new fellows and worlds awaits us. Let us join to the galactic scifi adventure of all lifetime (life extension tech will multiply this significantly).

What I want from Last of Us 2 - They are making a sequel, right?

Last of Us was indubitably one of the best PS3 games, ever. The year 2013 was especially though for making obvious gaming choices - Call of Duty: Ghost, Battlefield 4, GTA V, Bioshock Infinite, the list goes on. The promise of next-generation video game consoles couldn't outshadow the best and biggest year of gaming so far, and next year bodes well for gamers, once Xbone and PS4 get their game face on, reach a global populace of players and invite the masses for a treat with plethora of different games.

Next Uncharted 4, then LoU 2

This would seem to be the order of things according to Naugthy Dog, next year's title, I presume the top title of PS4 with Metal Gear Solid, will be Uncharted 4. Whilst players are anxiously waiting the so-long-ago promised transition to the silver screen, it is more likely that Uncharted series will get its Ps4 debut before any movie. Sorry. Besides ND has still a lot to offer to Last of Us on Ps3 in form of Single player and multiplayer DLCs.

Naughty Dog could have an ace down in the sleeve

Don't know but I would like to believe there's going to be some new things still added to the current multiplayer experience. I could go for new game modes, such as Capture the flag or Domination type or perhaps a multitask playlist introducing CPU infected in survival type match, against enemy team plus creepers lured in the map by loud gunfire. As for cosmetics, I could use few new weapons as well, just to make things more interesting.

Promise of Last of US 2, sequel, prequel?

The LoU universe has lot to offer for dramatic, action packed storytelling. ND has shown it can develop top notch stories on their own, but I could introduce some scenarios that I might be interesting, added with the tech of next-gen platform's capability to generate masses of characters. If GTAV was amazing, with old generation capacity, we can easily see hordes of infected chasing hoardes civilians like we saw in the intro of Last of Us. Therefore it would be nice to see the whole story arch from the first infected through martial law to the breakdown of society.

Improved multiplayer with dynamic environment, character customization

More everything: bigger matches, prone stance, dynamic environment, more weapons, more variation. You can imagine bigger maps with more players in a dynamic, destructible, malleable environment. I'm imagining a dynamic physical confrontation, sprinting in full speed to body check an enemy from behind into a sharp wooden fence. Injured player dripping with blood leave a trail of blood while limping to cover. Dark maps where you have to resort to use your flashlight in order to see anything.

State of the industry: Reality meets imagination - Promise of next-gen

Been a long time since I wrote something on this blog. I admit I've been busy with my Finnish socio-economic blog writing much more than I should've. Nonetheless, I should post here and then videos on Youtube while I still can with all the regulations and international law / free trade deals currently in progress undermining all the avant-garde work of bloggers and citizen journalists world wide. If you have no idea what I'm referring to, two words: TPP and TTIP. First one Trans-Pacific Partnership, a free trade agreement on many things wonderous, intellectual property right aka copy right for instance. The latter same kind of treaty between US and EU. Bunch of corporate BS. Find out about it. You're not going to like it.

Next-gen go gaga

Well, not really. Maybe an euphemism. There's a rocky road ahead. I want to address some of the troubling news that lie ahead notwithstanding you care or not. Willingness to buy in to the next-gen tech of video game consoles is of course a hot topic with the raging war between Xboners and PS4evers as seen in South Park episode Black Friday. Anyhow, first thing first, the price will be an issue for many since the economy is down the gutter. Second of all, the pre-holiday season release to push half-baked technical solutions will result in hardware malfunction and glitches, much like seen with the overwhelming episode over GTAV online hardships. Never again. Given the context of things, those are some the everyday things people should find out whether they decide to commit to a certain platform. Yet again we'll have to wait and see about the launch titles as well, some of which have already been postponed, thank God, to avoid premature exposure. For the better, I'm sure.

War of the worlds

The series of issues I'm going to address are not found within the usual parameters of next-gen debate: namely privacy, connectivity, health issues and copy right. These arguments go both sides. First, I start with the least important or the most known adverse effect of gaming: loss of health. 

Health issues are grave. As more and more people are prone to work, live and stay indoors, they lead a sedentary lifestyle and that combined with poor nutrition will result in devastating health problems. 1+2=disaster. In US, the public health renovation under Obamacare will also undermine the well-being of gamers, children mostly.

Then there's the alarmingly growing EMF exposure for everyone close the electrical appliances, the console, router, wi-fi etc. This factor will grow exponentially in cities where people bathe in EMF pollution. Studies point to negative health effects. Duh.

Third alarming point I want to raise is mental health aberrations due to sum unbeknownst factors (lifestyle, food, water, drugs, narcotics, disease, TV flicker rate, EMF, graphic content etc.). No big deal, it's called a life, but still can't help wondering about brainwaves, propaganda, conditioning and manipulation. Be warned though.

On the bright side, all of these can be defeated with proper lifestyle choices. Now that health is dealt with, let's continue to analyse privacy and connectivity. These too are important for the well-being of an individual. You've probably heard by now about the global scale mass surveillance and control grid that's out of East German style dystopian sci-fi flick. Nonetheless, we have it. We didn't know for sure that it existed. Movie references of surveillance tech were, we thought, most likely some film writer's fantasy. However, things are even worse in reality. No, we don't have GIs fighting Cobras in a worldwide scale, that's a fantasy. Instead we have enormous global corporate government that spies people that might some day become a threat to their existence. So gov't hand in hand with corporate interests, because the corps pay more than us, have decided to rape us over privacy and control us and make us pay for it. Long story short, my BIG issue lies with big corporations such as Microsoft that spies, collects information and shares it with their surveillance agency masters: buying a Xbox will surely contribute to their crime and gives them direct access to your living room with Kinect there watching you constantly, waiting you to make your move, say something that later might and will be used against you. They got you by the balls and so you buy in and play ball and contribute once again to the tyrants.

Now that I've got that off my chest, be sure look for yourself information about Kinect's spy capability. Plus the radiation. I guess the corporations would lie to us, again. The gov't can force a back door to any system, and probably already has, and gag companies.


Third major side note of this post refers to free trade agreements (TPP and TTIP) that will destroy the internet as we know it, will put ordinary folks in jail for copy right infringement and on top of that will destroy the remains of democracy (not that that hasn't already happened in many places, but still big RAPE).

How the apocalypse is going to affect your gaming

There is no easy way to put this. It might soon be a time to get serious, whether you want it or not, because a global financial collapse is lurking around the corner. This dramatic scenario might also have tremendous consequences to our favourite past time notwithstanding our whole well-being in many corners of the earth.

Life turns into a giant survival game

When the fire starts to burn, getting your daily sustenance may suddenly become your top priority. If already in poor health, your stamina and nervous system are to be bombarded to the point of breaking. In case of an outbreak, your chances of survival are weak unless you've stockpiled food and water and garrisoned your abode to keep intruders at bay. 

The loss electricity, internet and all the comforts of living in a civilised post-modern, almost nano-age society might break your will even before any of the real hardships begin. Surviving the shock is one thing, surviving the chaos derived from limited resources in your neighbourhood is another problem. Having good trust with your neighbours can save your community, however, those who are unprepared can come to you begging help and sustenance knowing all well that there's not enough for all in the long run. Don't expect the gov't to intervene, they've dug underground well in advance. They probably drink champagne to our poor health in tax paid secretly build super-bunkers with all the high-tech state-of-art sci-fi gizmos we only see in video games. Nonetheless, here we are in the cross-roads. I'll let this Iron Maiden song explain:


Track: Fate's Warning Album: No Prayer For the Dying

LA in six months looks like GTAOnline

If unrest should soon arrive in the US, we have a good glimpse of things to come thanks to our video game providers unwarranted attention to violence, doomsday and future scenarios.

I guess it doesn't matter in the end, if you read this or no. Live anywhere in the world. Understand English. Whatever. Fate probably has decided the course of things in advance (to our prior knowledge). This deterministic view is not needed to discourage people from taking matters in their own hands. Sh*t, it's for the best for us step away from the constant distraction that entertainment provides, because ignorance has allowed things to come this far. It's time to default, mankind. Demand those that are responsible to be brought to justice. We still have to acknowledge that all this is our own undoing, we've allowed ourselves to be lulled into slumber, to be manipulated and twisted into believing lies and accepting them as truth. It's payback time, says Karma.

Now that all doom and gloom is behind us. We can get acceptance, let go of our guilt, once it has been acknowledged and dealt with.

IN SHORT, the global financial turmoil will sink the game industry. If struggling even to buy necessities, people don't have spare money to spend in games.


Tis not the end of the world...

GTA V and Illuminati - Part 2: The All Seeing Eye

Yeah, it is all about this:


The all seeing eye is generally what this one is called. Let's have other examples:

The dollar bill: Annuit coeptis - Novus ordo seclorum. Freely translated - Announcing the birth of new world order. The eye on top the pyramid. Imagery of freemasonry. There are a ton of hidden things in the dollar bill that should be explained in the three films I posted with my last post, including cobwebs, owls and horned demons.

Popular interpretations

1) Satanic occult references

This so called Eye of Sauron as in The Lord of the Rings can be interpreted as the eye of satan or antichrist. For instance, in the Holy Qu'ran (Muslim's holy book), the one eyed false prophet (Masih al-Dajjal) is the Antichrist. According to wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masih_ad-Dajjal): 
  • Muhammad is reported to have said:
... Allah is not one eyed while the false Messiah, Ad-Dajjal is blind in the right eye and his eye looks like a bulging out grape
The satanic side can also be discovered through the roots of occult mystery religions of the ancient world and have been justly or unjustly discredited. For instance, in ancient Egypt, the eye can be deciphered as the Eye of Horus or the Eye of Ra. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_of_Horus

And in modern popular culture, the demonic occult tradition of satanic sacrifice, sigh:

Look any popular music long enough, you'll find blood, sex, sacrifice, the ram (baphomet), owls, pyramids, eyes, skeletons, skulls, cages, horns, demons, possession, reptiles and whatever.

Watch with skeptical eyes:
