  1. Joined IVG almost a decade ago.(time flies!!) Was just lurking around for the first few years and not much active again now after having a kid. But IVG is my main source of gaming info. My go to place to share my impressions of the (age-old)games I am playing and have lost count of the great deals I was able to grab because of the online deals thread. Other than the occasional discussions, dint have much interaction with IVGians as I am not into online MP games and havnt met any IVGian personally. But one incident related to this forum will remain forever with me. In Dec 2016, I faced a medical condition which was vision threatening. It was just a normal day, I was sitting in the office and then within a couple of minutes, I lost vision in my right eye because of it. Visited hospital next day and was told that the same can happen to left eye anytime which would have made me blind, at-least temporarily till I undergo a surgery(which wasn't a guaranteed solution too). Obviously, feeling very low, depressed and scared about the uncertain future, I came back home. Few hours later received this from my Secret Santa. This brought a smile to my face and I can't express in words what it meant for me on that dark day. Its a reminder that what can happen if I ignore my health and also a symbol of hope that no matter how bad it looks, that phase will pass. And most importantly, it taught me a life lesson, that even though you might not realise it, a simplest of gesture can mean a lot to a person in certain circumstances. This card is like a treasure to me and I am going to keep it safe with me as long as I can @Mr.Copyright©
  2. A colleague in office had fever 3 weeks back and was taking general medicines at home. Was admitted 2 days back because of difficulty in breathing and passed away as the lung infection has spread. He was just 26 I was already anxious for the last 2 days and after hearing this I panicked and went to a hospital. The doctor there first scolded me hard for few mins for coming out of quarantine, but then ran few tests and thankfully all looked good. Either I am unlucky to have 2/2 false +ives or very very lucky to have brushed the virus(even after taking all the precautions) and things dint get worse. Talking to her was such a relief. She was so kind, soft spoken and re-assuring. Felt a strong urge to cry while talking to her as I was really really scared yesterday. Respect for doctors and medical staff increased ten folds. This is getting out of hands Stay safe everyone and stay strong. Best wishes to you and your family.
  3. Hey man, unfortunately my RT-PCR report came out to be +ive. So, let me not send the game for a while for your safety.(PS: Have no symptoms at all.)
  4. So, I was planning to travel back home from Punjab and my RT-PCR report came out to be +ive. Have no symptoms at all...dont remember even sneezing twice in a row in the last week or so. For the 2nd time this happened. Had no symptoms earlier too. Whats funny is my wife's report is -ive and just a few days back we were sharing a kulfi Have isolated myself again because of a small kid and old people in the house, but its damn frustrating. Not sure why its happening again and again with me. Any suggestions if I should get some other checks done? After two weeks planning to get scans done to check if there is any lung infection.

    Returnal

    ^^This looks so amazing!!
  6. I prefer this kind of scary games anyday. Dont like those games at all that rely too much on jump scares like Until Dawn.
  7. Any suggestions/recommendations for a good Oxymeter guys. Pardon me, if this is already discussed in the thread. Also a friend suggested to get this instead of plain oxymeter as it provides continuous monitoring via phone - https://www.oneplus.in/product/oneplus-band Thoughts on this?
  8. You liking them? Personally, I found them quite boring once the novelty of traversal mechanism wore off.
  9. Like Returnal? But that's day time robbery. Better to whine when Returnal 2 is cancelled.
  10. I'll be back home by 25th Apr and can ship then...assuming there is no lockdown/some other s*it. Dont remember though whether the dlc was on disc or there was some code to download.
  11. Will add it to the wish list. Japan Studio ? Seems like most ppl dint play their games last gen.
  12. I hope this comes to PSVR2

    Death Stranding

    Wow, had no clue. Have the game with me for months now...will start it as soon as I am back home. And I guess, I dont need to be a PS+ subscriber in order to have access to these online features?
  14. Horror and VR - a match made in heaven. I am going to miss this series. XlZ9aB7Oy6U
  15. Thanks all. Received a mail from sony as soon as I put the games on download... thanking me for the"purchase". So, I guess this should be equivalent to claiming the games from the app.
  16. Damn, missed it Any idea if I just start the download and then pause it..can I still get it for free later? Have to leave for airport soon and won't have the PS4 with me for nxt 2 months.
  17. Take care man. Here is to hoping that everything will turn out for the best and wish your mom a speedy recovery.

    Bloodborne

    And went back to it again. Cleared upper cathedral area too. In 2015, I was like this game looks so cool, but From Soft games arent for me...2016, bought it on 80% off sale....2018, finally started it and gave up against Father G...and in 2021...maybe I can get my first ever platinum!!
  19. Awesome. I am really looking forward to some Nintendo love in my life, but holding on because of all the rumours going around of a Pro version.
  20. I still play the collection and Sly 4(which I think was also great) once in a while on PS3.
  21. Sly 3 was the first Sucker Punch game I had played and became a huge fan of them. My favourite studio that gen as I liked this franchise way more than ND's J&D and Insomniac's R&C.
