Remember when micro-transactions were said to be the works of the video game devils and that no one in their right mind would support such a business structure? Welcome to 2015 where micro-transactions are the norm in gaming and just about every mobile game that releases, uses this as their means to make ends meet. The problem is that we as gamers have settled for this instead of demanding more for our money. Because so many of us have $100 for 90,000 gold bricks for a mobile game. While you could slow play it, who has that kind of time. When it comes to console games, they have began creeping their way into the landscape with games like Assassins Creed Unity and Mortal Kombat X adapting to the change in times. If mobile games can do it, why cant console games you might ask.
"Destiny: The Taken King has released to much fanfare from press and gaming public alike. Were putting some serious time and though into the full review, but you can read our initial impressions of the expansion and its vast content offering. Meanwhile, guardians are out there fighting the new threat that Oryx has brought in his wake: The Taken. These enemies are twisted versions of enemies that we already know, taken from our realm (hence the name), and then spit back with new dimensional looks, abilities, and a renewed drive to extinguish the light." - PSLS
COG writes - Back to Bed features a visually appealing art style, great gameplay mechanics and some solid puzzles. Sadly, it feels as if the developers cut the experience short by not capitalizing on a ton of their amazing ideas.

The free add-on to Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain is set to release on consoles on October 6th, with a PC release next year, and its unusual and intriguing gameplay loop offers something many competitive online shooters lack meaningful gameplay choice."

Christopher Livingston:
"With 15 hours spent on Metal Gear Solid: The Phantom Pain, I'm sitting at a whopping 6% complete, which tells me I'd need a Fulton balloon the size of the Hindenburg to lift all the content out of this game. Naturally, I'm forced to ask the obvious question: besides a couple hundred hours of stealth, combat, base management, and story beats I can't even begin to understand, what else is there to do?"
