No... I actually don't hear of many books anymore. I'm not sure why.
I'm not counting the overpraised books like Hunger Games and Maze Runner... Never read the books or saw the movies to those btw.

That's fair. Though I don't understand why people compare LOTR to Harry Potter...Harry Potter is toilet paper in comparison to LOTR. @_@

How about The Word Reclaimed?

I'm only comparing witchcraft, it was the first thing that came to mind.
Never heard of this book but it does looks really cool. I might get it

I prefer real books, It feels better in my hands. And the smell of a new book is pretty amazing

That is correct. I often say that if I could get a candle that is scented like the library, I would buy all of them.

I recently read 3 books, all over 500 pages, within 6 days...

...excessive reading sprees?

Would you happen to have an opinion on the new steam link and controller coming out?
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

I have gone on a few. I'm still currently reading Ted Dekker's "The Lost Books", but anyway I read the first 3 in maybe 2 weeks.

I do have an opinion actually. I personally think this is better than the Steam Machine. I'd get it for myself, there's only one problem. The controller. My hands have gotten used to a PS4 controller that I wouldn't want to use the Stem Controller. I also have a problem with my hands that most things are hard for me to hold, and the PS4 controller is perfect. So I'm not sure how the controller fits in other people's hands.

I love the idea! I don't think it could go very wrong. Just keep in mind you can't use both the TV and the PC because they become one.

I have tried using controllers like that... whether its xbox or playstation I just can't get the feel of it. I grew up using a mouse and keyboard so I'm used to that.

How good are you with a PS4 controller?

It truly depends on the game. I've gotten really good at fps and other shooter games with my controller. I also find driving games easy with a controller.
I'd say I'm above average with a PS4 controller... but in the end, it's about the game.

I will definitely agree with that, I've played (more like tried and failed :lol:) a few games before with different controllers and other games did seemed easier to work with than others.

Do you use a keyboard and mouse or the PS4 controller for PC games? I've heard you can use an xbox controller with pcs so I'm assuming the same goes for playstation.

I use a keyboard and mouse. Sony controllers aren't compatible with most PCs unfortunately. SOme brands make controllers that have the same layout but are bigger than PS controllers, they also resemble PS3 controllers.

Basically every horror game XD
Even games that aren't supposed to be horror related have scared me

I'm usually terrified of any game which places me in water with some sort of monster. In Zelda the other day, I had to fight a giant eel in a fathoms deep, very dark, underwater pit...Link was very nearly not the only one with wet pants. O_o

Complicated board games, or simple board games?
