These are the two figures I have for the Lone Ranger playset.
In the second part of my look at the characters in Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, we’ll go over the fighters on the Capcom side. I’m way more into video games (obviously, since I review them) than I am comic books, so hopefully I’ll sound a bit more knowledgeable here. So let’s dive right in. Oh yeah, some slight Story Mode spoilers here and there may happen, so you’ve been warned.
I am now digging into my Disney Infinity figures. I'm starting with the first game, the first wave of characters, and then by each major movie franchise. The first Disney Infinity featured six main movie tie-ins that had their own areas in the game and then one or two characters from other films just for fun. This first picture is of the Pirates of the Caribbean characters I have.
I ended up with these when a Gamestop didn't have enough Skylanders to fill out the 5-for-2 sale. I'd like to try that Chibi-Robo game sometime.
A long session in Minecraft today ended in a lot of frustration and exhaustion. Yes, I did several more achievements, but the effort was more than I wanted. I think I'm done with the game for a while.
Three more achievements aquired. I was well satisfied with myself that I got the two I set out to do and another one in the bargain.
So I went on a bit of a spree and bought a bunch a games for my Nintendo Switch since with black friday and what not Nintendo was having a sale so I bought the following digital titles:
Both Mark and I are still chasing achievements in the Bedrock edition of Minecraft on Xbox One. I got the Map Room one, among others, and spent a lot of time on the On a Rail one.
This is the first half of my amiibo collection. I don't have many but these are my favorites so far.
I got these Overlord figures at a convention last year. I only wish they had the overlord himself as well, but I don't think one exists.
I just saw a tweet from Cheap Ass Gamer for pre-ordering Kingdom Hearts III. I remember when that was announced, and how it helped sell me on the PS4. I wonder if this game is ever going to come out, my interest has waned significantly in the 4 years since it was officially announced.
You know Monday is usually tough but after a four day break, it’s really rough to get everything going. I think I’ll get the hang of it come Wednesday. During that holiday break I was going to make some last minute progress in some games right before my Chris Goes All Awards Show blog but instead I played a ton of one game and that game is Injustice 2.
Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite is a fighting game featuring characters from Marvel comic and Capcom game universes. Usually when I play a fighting game that has a lot of interesting characters in it, I’ll write a blog about them, so that’s what we’re going to do here. We’ll start with the Marvel cast. Keep in mind that I’m not a big comic book fan, so most of my knowledge of Marvel characters comes from the movies, Marvel vs. Capcom games, and the LEGO games. So when I go over these characters, if you ARE a Marvel fan, please feel free to correct me on anything or provide any information or insight that you might like to share.
I got to chasing achievements again in Minecraft, this time in the Bedrock Edition recently added to Xbox One.
I played the Ever Oasis demo on 3DS. It's short, like 30 minutes or so but it gives you the idea of the game. You're the oasis chief and are tasked with growing and improving the oasis before a dark force can come and destroy it. New people appear in the Oasis and ask you to do things to help them. If you do, they will join the Oasis and start a shop that grows from a plant. This draws in more potential citizens.
I had some time to kill before a family get together so I dropped by Round 1 and played a few arcade games.
Yes He has all the moons you can get plus a challenge that opens up at the end.
Pixlpeeps, Happy Friday! This is my favorite time of year because this is the one day I can justify eating a steak and a slice of pumpkin pie covered in whipped cream for breakfast and people think its normal. This is good times and after I finish writing an update here I will go back to eating something crazy. Anyways last night my cousin and I decided to venture out an hour after stores that opened because we wanted to avoid the crazy folks who go nuts over deals over TVs, computers, and other high ticket items. Instead of those items I wanted some small stuff and I knew there would be mountains of this stuff so we could take our time, avoid the rush, find some cool stuff, and calmly stroll out of the store without any issue. So this is my kinda recap of what I call Dark Gray Thursday Night!
I played three games today: Minecraft, Horizon Zero Dawn and Crimson Skies.
I saw Mark in Minecraft today, so I had to jump in there and drive him totally nuts. It was like a sitcom. New guy enters the house and messes things up while the other guy is down in the mine. He returns and goes nuts.
I have been wanting to talk videogames for the past week. I have not spent enough time with Breath of the Wild to talk about that game. I also have not had the proper inspiration to talk about anything else. All that has changed, and hopefully I will be able to use my newfound ideas before I lose them.
