Why Is Half-Life 1 A Masterpiece?!
I've been working on this for a little while and it's coming together nicely. Got Elzie editing the first couple of sections. This will go live hopefully on Sunday as I've got a sponsorship to give me a tight deadline.
I tried to get 3 videos out last month for 'Valve Month' but I ran into many issues and it just didn't come together. But this should be a cap on Valve-related videos for a little while at least. Hope you're all excited to revisit an ALL-TIME CLASSIC!
Resident Evil 8: Village Review - PATREON SHOUTOUTS AT THE END OF THIS
I just beat Resident Evil 8 a couple days ago and I absolutely loved the gameplay! I've been playing the Mercenaries mode and started a 2nd playthrough on Hardcore difficulty. I probably won't play all the way through a 2nd time before I work on the review, it's more to get a taste of the new Difficulty.
I definitely had some issues with the dialogue, characters and story so I'm not sure if it'll be a "SO AWESOME & SO BAD" review or just "SO AWESOME" because it's definitely not mediocre. But the story really did bother me in a lot of ways.
Revisiting Halo 5 or Halo: MCC
I wanted to do another Halo video cuz I haven't done one in a while. Kind of a bummer there hasn't been much to talk about. Until Halo Infinite releases some tangible gameplay to dissect, all the forum posts, screenshots and text can only tell us so much about the actual game.
But I thought it'd be fun to talk about the Journey of Master Chief Collection and how it's been almost 7 years since it came out, WHICH IS WILD! I'd probably go in-depth on the journey 343i has taken, notable patches and updates and kind of compare the state of the game now to at launch.
Revisiting Halo 5 is something I've wanted to do for a while but haven't taken the time. Thought it'd be funny to check out the campaign again and maybe take a dump on it one last time, or offer ideas on how it should've played out. Maybe this would be a sort of 'revision' to my old Halo 5 review series.
I could also check out the multiplayer and maybe find some positive things to say about it overall. If I did revisit Halo 5, I'd probably check out each mode for a little bit.
50 Cent: Bulletproof
I still want to (kind of) review this game, as it's hilariously bad and yet still entertaining. A very curious game from the past. I've had a lot of ideas for skits and all that. Maybe I'll start working on this near the end of May.
Meme Review - Act Man TV
I still want to get this video out as I promised to give out some games, people seem to have forgotten it but I feel bad about not following through. We will see about this one.
I'm still brainstorming some ideas and new video series for Act Man TV so be patient with that. But I was thinking about doing another
Battlefront 2 EA video because I was recently playing that and watching the Clone Wars TV series. There's a WHOLE lot of potential in the Battlefront series and I'd hate to see it go to waste or not be used. I'd probably highlight some funny moments and have some smaller commentary on what an ideal Battlefront 3 would be like to me.
So yeah, those are my current plans and ideas, thank you for reading! And stay tuned for more AWESOME CONTENT!

Why was "Fran Bow" so Awesome?

Like the other folks here, I'd be thrilled to see a revisiting of Halo 5 and the MCC in their current, much improved state from launch. Assuming Infinite comes out relatively soon in the Fall, this would be a good time to get something out before 5 and MCC are overshadowed by news of the new game.
Really Good Gaming
If you do revisit Halo 5, check out βfirefightβ again. Itβs gotten a bit better but still inferior to other real firefight modes. To me, Halo 5 firefight has more in common with Spartan Ops than Firefight from Reach/ODST
Eren Sevintuna
I think Halo 5 would be interesting, especially since there are some people who say that it had the best campaign gameplay in the series. (Halo 3 is King).
EpilepticGoth
I think it'd be nice to go over Halo MCC and the many updates 343 has done to improve multiplayer and customization. (Mainly for 2 Anniversary and 3.) Eldewrito is the source of alot of the improvements. 343 just doesn't pay the creators like Rockstar and Valve does.
