As we're about to enter the last week of September, we have another somewhat slow week of new releases, that is unless you're a football fan, the kind with a round ball, not the oblong pig bladder kind. That said, if you're into trains, house building, hunting relics or ever wanted to know what it's like to jump between worlds, there might be something for you this week as well.

Sports games and EA specifically and f**k off and do one, quite frankly. These are nothing more then attempts to milk stupid users dry with the contsant B$ that is the current sports season.

Just a heads up for those looking to get the new Cyberpunk expansion. CDPoject Red is pulling shenanigans again with the release and requiring all reviewers who received early access to the game sign an NDA requiring them to only use CDProject provided B-Roll. I want the expansion to be good but it's things like this that set off huge red flags.

Ya I am not a fan of CD Projekt. If I decide to check out this DLC it'll be a high seas copy.
