Upgrading And Other Gaming Activities
Upgrading And Other Gaming Activities I’ve been rather focused on Star Wars Battlefront for the last couple months, but it isn’t the only thing I’ve done lately. One big thing is computer upgrades.

GTA V Online: News And Thoughts At Rank 120
I’ve surpassed the Rank 120 milestone, and unlocked the last rank-restricted weapon: The Minigun.
