My friend Mark was getting the adventure packs for the first game today. There are four of them and they each unlock a new area in the game that gives you a soul gem which gives one of your figures a new power. It's like DLC but through a physical product.
Seems neato. I'd like to go on a NES binge sometime.
I'm resolved, no resigned, to not finishing any game I play. There just isn't time for it. I'd rather at least play some of the many games I want to play than to just play one to completion.
You can totally beat the main story with just the three starter pack figures. Heck, you can do it with just one figure. I might actually try that just for fun. But if you want to see everything in the game, you have to have one of each element and probably some of the action packs for their unique levels. At sale prices, this is doable. At what they originally sold for, forget it. You need Rich Uncle Pennybags to get them for you.
It's stupid long for a game title. What were they thinking? If I say Dragon Quest Heroes, you might ask which one because there was also Rocket Slime. So now I gotta repeat that long subtitle every time? At least it rhymes; makes it easier to remember.
That PS4 controller is pretty cool. It's heavier and has that touch pad. I'm liking it.
I've been meaning to make some friend requests on PS4, but I have to keep my ipod (where I have the list) away from my friend's TV or it tries to connect to it's speakers. I'll write them down tomorrow and add 'em in.
Just looked into that Gamestop sale. They're doing a lot of sales on Superchargers and starter kits. I like that buy 2 get 3 free on all figures sale they had before Xmas. I'm watching out for that one again.
Interesting about Disney Infinity. Kinda sucks all the figures can't play in each other's worlds. That sucks.
I want to try Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure for 3DS. I saw a starter pack at my retro store. Maybe I have some trade-ins to get that now. I'll think on it.
That Black Manta figure is pretty cool.
2015 was the year I wanted to at least try and complete every game I played. 2016 is going to be totally different. I'm going with time limits on games. When a new one comes out that I want, I'm letting go of the old one, finished or no. So I probably won't be finishing hardly anything anymore, but who cares. It's the experience that counts not gamer score or whether I "beat" the game or not. Games are so darn long these days. Who can finish them?
I loved Gat Out of Hell. I played it on Xbox 360 with online co-op, and I think it crashed maybe once. Otherwise it seemed to run fine. I'm worried about Saints Row IV now though. Maybe I'll get the PS4 version when I get to it.
I played some Grim Fandango on my Vita. I missed a clue on the computer in the main characters's boss's office because I couldn't see the screen clearly enough. I want to play it again on PS4 so I can see everything.
I got Uncharted Collection. I think I'll play Uncharted 3 there. Also Rare Replay which I haven't touched yet.
