Anything Video Game Related Coming To You From Father Christmas..?

I've decided to treat myself to an Elite Dangerous Voice Pack. If you spend $10 on Voice Attack you can get these voice packs with loads of famous sci-fi TV and film actors and actresses doing the voices for your on-board computer.

I was very tempted to go for either Avon from Blake's 7 or Tom Baker, Data and Q from Star Trek were also very tempting but I've decided to go for the Brian Blessed one instead:

Gordon's Aliiiiiiiiiiive!!!

Apart from that I don't have any plans to buy any games because I'm trying to cut down on my spending because I'm saving up to get myself a Yaw VR motion simulator next year:





They should be shipping to Kickstarter backers soon so hopefully the reviews are going to be good, they don't look too comfortable to sit in but appearances here could be deceptive. If you can end up sitting in these things for a few hours without a problem then I'm grabbing one of these things. Elite Dangerous, driving sims and flight sims are going to be AMAZING using one of these things!!!

I got myself the Brian Blessed voice pack and it's awesome lol

Worth. Every. Penny.

I ended up spending £8.25 on the Voice Attack application and £14.99 on the Vasco Voice pack. I think I'm going to need to train the Voice recognition a bit more but I've got a cold and my nose is blocked up so better if I wait until I've gotten rid of that.

Exchanged gifts with a few of the kids' friends yesterday, and they got me RDR2. I'm one happy bunny. Wasn't expecting that at all 😎

I'm going to give it a few days before I fire it up, though. I'm currently playing AC Origins. It's okay, but definitely not a great game. I want to finish the story but if I start playing something else I doubt I'll come back to it.

I got Shadow of the Tomb Raider and Jurassic World Evolution but I bought Drawful 2 and Quiplash to play over the festive season, very fun games if you are hosting any kind of party or have a lot of family over... highly recommend

I had Brian Blessed shouting 'you'd better fasten your seat belt, this is going to be a bumpy ride!!!' when I engaged my warp drive yesterday lol

So good. This was worth every penny I paid for it

I'm tempted to get one of the others now, either Paul Darrow (Avon from Blake's 7), Brent Spiner (Data from TNG), John de Lancie (Q from Star Trek) or Tom Baker (the fourth Doctor).
