That's the Sega first party controller in the pictures. There's been some third party ones out there. My friend has one for the Xbox.

I've been trying to figure out what could fail in those things. There's no batteries, I think, so what gives. I want to fix it. I used the analog stick for all the rod movements, and that was almost as good, but it's cool to have to move the whole controller around when reeling in a fish.

Right. I was a bass player in a band and I tried my best to be accurate, and I think I was most of the time, but there's something to be said for "feel". We didn't rehearse and stop constantly and say, "oh that note didn't hit precisely on the beat, let's do it again.".

My favorite part of Rock Band and Guitar Hero was the whammy bar on the guitars. Oh when I would get to a whammy bar section I could go crazy and do whatever I wanted. Best part. They should have drum solo sections where you can let loose. I'd love that.

Oh man, you got me thinking about that iced coffee I used to drink. I used to get this cold brew iced coffee from a local shop, not Starbucks, and it reved me up like crazy. Tasted great too. I'm going to have to try what you suggested even though I kind of quit coffee a year or so ago. So good.

That book cover for the iPad is supper cool. And that app that lets you move Amazon books to any device is interesting. At some point, if Barnes & Noble folds - which seems possible but I totally don't want it to go -, I can use that with my Nook, I think.

I'd like to pick up several games I've missed this year already: Ni No Kuni II, Dragon's Crown Pro, and God of War (didn't actually miss it but didn't finish it either).

I put it on a back burner. Who knows when I'll get to it. But thanks for the info. Might be fun for an hour or so.

Ha, yea the cold air. I never did play any of the Thunder games in the arcade. Maybe by the time I noticed them I felt too old to jump on those fake snowmobiles.

Hue was neat until I had to jump all these platforms and change the color as I jumped. It was fine for three or four of them, but a whole room of them was frustrating as heck.

Oh yea, those cabinets. They are always several of them together in an arcade.

Abzu made me think of Endless Ocean for the Wii. I liked those games. No photography in Abzu though.

This was that 3DS game? I think I played the demo on 3DS a while back. I liked it. Would like it better on the big screen.

I was going to check if the demo was on XBO but I forgot. Maybe it's on PS4? I really hope the library gets a copy because I'm still broke.

That's cool. I have the drum set and played it once. I kind of liked it and kind of didn't. The game makes you play very precisely and that kind of bothers me. I wish it was a little more forgiving or had a free play area. I'd like to mess around with them.
