9 (Unconventional) First-Person Video Games You Must Play

2. No Man's Sky - PS4

Apparently, having one massive open-world in your video game today doesn't make you special. Hello Games' wildly ambitious, totally unrelated follow-up to Joe Danger, has so many open-worlds that it would take 5 billion years to see them all. At least, that's what co-founder Sean Murray says... As a wayward explorer searching for the center of the universe, every player will start on a unique planet, armed with an upgradable spacesuit, a starship and a pocket full of intergalactic dreams. Any star you see in the night sky is a real solar-system you can fly to and explore. Blasting out of a planets atmosphere and out into space is seamless, and as you enter the sky of another world, the snaking valleys, mountain ranges, and water bodies that define its surface patterns are all real. The level of scale on which all of this occurs has been demoed publicly and it is astonishing.

Real Science Magazine called James' addiction to video games "sexually attractive." He also worked really hard and got really lucky in college and earned some awards for acting, improv and stand-up, but nobody cares about that out here in LA. So... He's starting over fresh, performing when He can. His profile picture features James as Serbian, vampire comic Dorde Mehailo with His anonymous Brother and Uncle at the Nerdmelt Showroom in West Hollywood. In James' spare time, he engages in acting, writing, athletics, hydration, hours of great pondering and generally wishing you'd like him.
