Saints Row 4: The game that should have been a DLC

August 5, 2018August 3, 2018 Medic 0 Comments Saints Row, saints row 4

I’m trying to hard to like Saints Row 4. I really am. I recently picked it up again to play with a friend of mine after struggling for an insane amount of time to even download the game. This sounds insanely weird considering that I’m a huge fan of Saints Row 3 and Saints Row 2 is an amazing game when it decides it wants to work. I even thoroughly enjoyed Gat out of Hell, even though it was an incredibly short game, especially once I’d upgraded flying. I actually asked for Saints Row 4 as a Christmas present, getting… [Continue Reading]

Growlithe, my third Pokemon after the default Charmander and my Ekans, was at that gym for 5 hours alongside sister's Growlithe and a stranger's Charizard.

“Ya wanna see mah pokemons?” – Medic Finally Tries Pokemon GO!

August 4, 2018August 12, 2018 Medic 0 Comments pokemon, pokemon go

Once again, Medic is late to the bandwagon, to the point that most people have already gotten off the bandwagon. Luckily, Pokemon GO ties an incredibly popular franchise to something insanely simple and easy, to the point that it’d be hard for this silly mobile game to ever fall completely out of favour. Especially when there are a billion copycat games desperate to take its place. So yes, I finally tried Pokemon GO out properly. Technically, this is my first official Pokemon game, now I think about it. But yeah, how can you not like something that’s so simple? You… [Continue Reading]

Brother’s Ballard

August 3, 2018July 31, 2018 Medic 0 Comments brother

It was April 2017 when I got my brother into Warframe. It had been one of my few birthday wishes, that my siblings play video games with me (because I’m a boring, indecisive person) for a few hours. Out of the two of them, I expected neither of them to continue playing at all. Warframe, as far as I was concerned, was much more niche. More like asking someone to play Dota 2 over playing Overwatch. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea. Well it turns out it totally was brother’s cup of tea. To the point that he has nearly… [Continue Reading]

TWO THOUSAND FUCKING ARTICLES! Oh and there’s prizes and stuff.

August 2, 2018August 3, 2018 Medic 0 Comments 2000th article, yes I wrote this in advance

What’s that? 2000 articles? Is this real? Is it a fantasy? No, it’s definitely real. It’s 100% real. We’ve hit 2000 articles! But first off, let’s spend a moment thinking just how awesome we are, having published over 2000 articles on the Daily SPUF, one a day since our inception. And on top of that, some of these articles were written by people like you, dear reader! In fact, you could become a person who writes articles, as laid out on this page. So yeah, that’s awesome. And you’re awesome. We’re all awesome. You’re here for the contest though. Because… [Continue Reading]

2000 Hours of Warframe

August 1, 2018July 26, 2018 Medic 0 Comments 2000 hours, ramble, warframe

It’s finally happened. I’ve played a game for more hours than Team Fortress 2 and for more than 2000 hours. Congratulations, Warframe, you have won my undying honour and respect. Give yourselves a pat on the back. Anyway, over the course of those 2000 hours, there are a lot of things I have learned. And some things I haven’t really learned but am basically still guessing about. I can actually remember a lot of little things, like Davjo helping me sell a Tigris Prime part so I could buy my first colour palette, the broken bow aabicus had when I… [Continue Reading]

On Macaroni and Cheese

July 31, 2018July 26, 2018 Medic 0 Comments food, macaroni cheese, nom, SPUFood

I love a good old pasta dish, filled with pasta and cheese and some sort of sauce. My favourite pasta dish is my own homemade macaroni cheese, made with whatever pasta I have in my cupboard, a bechamel sauce with an egg yolk in it, mustard and plenty of cheese. The cheese in question varies depending on what day of the week it is and how many sandwiches my cheese-loving sister has eaten, but still, it’s always good. The recipe itself is simple. You boil your pasta for as long as it needs, adding salt and a splash of oil… [Continue Reading]

“What the Fuck even IS a Warframe?”

July 30, 2018July 26, 2018 Medic 0 Comments lore, warframe

“What the fuck even IS a Warframe?” someone once asked me. It might have been my mum, because that’s the sort of thing she asked. At the time I gave a pretty vague answer, something like “biomechanical suits controlled telepathically by kids”, which isn’t really a good answer. It’s true, but it’s still a shitty answer. Even today, “what is a Warframe?” is still a stupidly annoying question to answer. But we’re going to try anyway. So before the Second Dream, it was assumed that Warframes were people. The majority of characters look like they are suits, containing humans inside… [Continue Reading]

Another Look at Ash – No Longer a Power Point Presentation

July 29, 2018July 24, 2018 Medic 0 Comments ash, ninja, warframe

Sometimes, just sometimes, you can’t use the same Warframe for everything. Sometimes you gotta try new things. Sometimes you really, really want something dead. Sometimes, you actually want to be a stealthy ninja, going around sneakily murdering things. Well Ash is really good at that. Ash Prime is even better than that, and there’s a ton of them running around right now because nearly everyone got an Ash Prime if they had linked up their Warframe and Twitch accounts and were active the 7 days before Tennocon. Since there’s a load of newbie Ashes wandering around, really it was the… [Continue Reading]

Play As A Dragon – That feeling when a mod you thought would never get updated suddenly gets updated…

July 28, 2018July 26, 2018 Medic 0 Comments burning skies, dragon, legendary edition, mod, Skyrim

It’s funny how things go. Throughout most of July, I’d kinda given up on playing Skyrim. There weren’t any new mods I fancied, I wasn’t in the mood to try anything insanely experimental and I’d pretty much given up hope that I’d see a mod come out that worked with or even replaced Burning Skies, a Playable Dragon Mod I’ve talked about a few times on here. But lo and behold, I stumbled across Play As A Dragon almost by random, sitting in the Most Recent section of Nexus Mods, a couple of pages in. Made by the same guy… [Continue Reading]

‘Zilla

July 27, 2018July 24, 2018 Medic 0 Comments godzilla, king of the monsters, monster, movie, ramble, rant

Everyone I have spoken to apart from my mum seems to hate the 1998 Godzilla movie. Not one of the Japanese ones, but a Hollywood re-imagining of the King of the Monsters. Not so much a revamp but Hollywood doing their own thing. They all say that the 2014 movie was more faithful. But faithful does not mean better. I’ve watched the 2014 Godzilla movie a few times. But frankly I don’t enjoy it. It’s slow, plodding, tiresome and does not have NEARLY ENOUGH Godzilla in it. What pissed me off the most was the human characters I didn’t care… [Continue Reading]
