⚽️2⃣3⃣ Some Thought-provoking Recommendations for FIFA 23 Players ⚽️ #FIFA23

 

There are several recommendations in FIFA 23 that affect everything from shooting to dribbling. Surprisingly, unless a new agreement is struck, this will be the last FIFA game produced in partnership with EA.

The venerable football series seems to want to go out on top by including real next-gen features that should greatly improve gameplay.

It's time to adjust and start practising with FIFA 23's many new features and improvements. 

📲📱 What Are The Kids Apps That Collect The MOST and LEAST Data? 📲📱

In this day and age, it's not uncommon for kids to have access to digital devices.

And there's no arguing that there are lots of gaming apps for kids to choose from.

 

But which apps collect the most personal data?

🔥 Garena Free Fire – New Weapons, Character, & More Provided In New Update 🔥

One of the most played battle royale games right now is Garena Free Fire. It's a popular game primarily because of the short battle royale matches that it offers. Instead of the usual 100 players, only 50 players will go to a remote island and battle it out and become the last man/woman standing. The game is also not very demanding when it comes to the technical specifications, so it can smoothly run, even on low spec devices.

As one of the popularly played battle royale games, the developers continue to provide improvements and updates to keep the game interesting. The developers recently came out with a massive update that added new characters and weapons and adjusted several game modes and guns. If you want to know more about these recent updates, you will continue to read on, as we will be discussing these things in the article.

🏁 Kingdom of Carts Vs. Germany "The Battle Of Britt(ain) Faye" 🏁 #Retrogaming

Having been to Paris on several occasions (possible Faye’s favourite place in the world) and drunk deep from the well of gaming there, we decided it was time for a change and planned a trip to Cologne and Berlin over the space of a week.

Yes, the country is historically and culturally rich, almost every street corner has a story behind it and you could get lost for days, constantly learning more and more about this hub of Europe….but will I find a copy of Arx Fatalis on the Xbox for a fistful of Euros?

👾 Steve @GAMETelford Talks To Us About Dressing In Lycra, Pong Machines & Chip Buttys - Video Games Memories 👾 #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

Within the gaming community, there are certain people that really stand out as ambassadors for the video games medium and I think today we are lucky enough to have someone with us who gets the idea that video games are all about having fun. 

Our guest today runs the amazing @GAMETelford  Twitter account and manages to combine that sense of fun whilst also doing a day job at GAME in Telford.

The Twitter account is one of my favourite accounts on Twitter and is always guaranteed to raise a smile due to the amazingly talented Steve acting out skits on a weekly basis. 

The amount of effort that must go into the account is astounding and I am really looking forward to today's Video Games Memories with Steve so as we can see what makes the great man tick...

Let's get started with a few questions to provoke the nostalgia gland in Steve's video games brain...

💾 Britt Roberts: The Rambling Man "Disk 1 of Dungeon Quest is No More" 💾 #Retrogaming #C64

This festive period has been marked for me by a distinct lack of reviewing due to buying a house and having to move over the New Year. 

With no Wi-Fi, I couldn’t download the indie gold sent to me by The Mighty Games Freezer and so I found myself retreating into the Kingdom of Carts Collection in these (quite literally) dark days. 

I thought I’d just write a bit of a rambling blog discussing what I’ve been up to and some thoughts that I’ve had, just to prove I’m still kicking around if anything!

🎮 Friend’s Faves & Most Underappreciated Video Games 🎮 #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

I was recently asked to guest on a gaming podcast, in preparation I was asked for a combination of my favourite video games and also some I found to be under-appreciated. 

I’m pretty sure that it’s the same for everyone; where favourite games are always in flux depending on mood and memories but it was quite fun to think back at the games that either had the biggest emotional impact on me or that I remember having an awesome time with. 

🕹️ Miguel Rafael Talks Greedy Guns, Sushi and Portuguese Gaming Culture 🕹️ #IndieDev #GameDev

Britt: Firstly I wanted to say that Greedy Guns was my choice for co-op game of the year for Games Freezer, genuinely some of the most fun I’ve had in a two-player mode in the last year.

Miguel: Thank you so much! It means the world to us to know that people appreciate our game. Thank you x1000.

🕹️ Britt Talks To Elliot Scholes at The Bristol Gaming Market 🕹️ @TheVGMarket #Retrogaming

Britt: As far as I’m aware, this is Replay Events’ first gaming market in Bristol as events tend to usually either be in London or further up north. Are there plans for future events or perhaps even a full-on Expo in the south?

Elliot: It is our first gaming market in Bristol! We definitely have plans for another, I would say keep an eye on our Facebook page. In regards to something bigger, we did work with the folks at the Bristol Hippodrome earlier this year to run a pop-up gaming exhibition. I really do feel like there is a need for a show like our PLAY Expos in this area of the country, so who knows?!

It's my pleasure to have The Drisk in the Games Freezer for Video Games Memories.

🕹️ Kingdom Of Carts: The Paris Return 🕹️ @kingdomofcarts @BrittRecluseuk

I wrote an article on our previous retro gaming sojourn to Paris (one of Faye’s favourite places) last year and commented on the price there and the gaming culture of Paris in general, however, we didn’t really know what to expect on that occasion.

This time, we built the holiday specifically around our love of gaming and so we were able to visit more places and also plan our treks more (we ended up clocking over thirty miles of walking in three days!) than our previous trips.

🏀 Retro Review: Space Jam - PS1 "Jordan's Motivation To Return To Basketball?" 🏀 #Retrogaming #GamersUnite

This Space Jam video game is based on a movie by the same name that I am pretty sure I saw in theatres and remember very little about; partially because that was the only time I saw it, and I know very little about Michael Jordan or basketball as a whole, so it never kept my interest. 

I considered re-watching the movie for this review, but couldn’t find anyone I knew that actually owned a copy, so not sure what that says about the movie or my friends. It is a simple concept though, with the world-famous Looney Tunes meeting real-life NBA players—mostly just MJ after he decided to do baseball—and play a game of intergalactic proportions: Tune Squad vs Monstars, where the stakes are…

I honestly don’t recall, but I’m sure they’re big. The movie, however, was a hit, to the point that Hollywood is still talking about a sequel to this day, so I’m a little surprised there is only one Space Jam video game.
