This will be a continuing theme for quite a while. You see I own 250 or so wii games (I've lost track by now), and will probably get more and more. Why? Well I can't pass up a cheap game for $5 and bargain bin buys bring out the crazy game collector in me. As such with 250 games and being expanded upon in the future I haven't played em all. But here is the start of a descent into collecting Wii games madness that I embarked upon!
Another short blog coming in late in the evening. Closing shifts at the market throw my timing off, and guess what? I pretty much only have closing shifts! At least I get to do stuff with the pup before I go to work.
Hello Pixlbit. I've been off the radar for awhile because I was playing the MSX port of Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake for the PS3.
So I finally completed this beast of a game. I know I have bitched about it with my last few blogs, but please know I do like this game. It has flaws but I did enjoy my time with it and I especially loved the characters and story. I'm typically not huge on games that are pretty religiously themed. Im not religious myself. However this game was really excellent and the theme for sure didnt bother me.
Whoops! I was doing a bunch of YouTube research for tonight’s episode of Nerds Without Pants and almost forgot about BaD! We’re talking about our three favorite game intros for the Stage Select segment and I was watching our listener picks. Anyways…
I love classic arcade collections, but you don’t see them as much anymore. Nowadays, game companies opt to sell you each game separately to download, rather than put a bunch on one disc. So when I found out that there were two games on the PS4 that were collections of Atari arcade and 2600 titles, I nabbed them right away when I got my PS4. And since I like writing about them, I also wrote four blogs about each of the games in these collections over at GamerDad.com. Please click on the links if you want to read about them in more detail.
Ever since I read daftman's blog about Castlevania coming to Netflix, I've just been listening to this YouTube video with all the different versions of "Bloody Tears" throughout the series.
I'm going through my collection now and trading in anything I don't have strong feelings about and saving the credit to help pay for a Switch, when I can get my hands on one. I tore through my XBO/PS4 games yesterday; and today, I hit the first shelf of Xbox 360 games. I saved some. Here's some of the stuff I saved.
The first thing I bought when my paycheck arrived this morning was the season pass for The Division (which is on sale on PSN for $28). Ever since I started playing it again a few weeks ago, I can't shake off how much a better game it is now. The whole game should open up for me now. It's not like the game had a lack of things to do but now it just expanded like crazy. And there's a third and final expansion on the way in 2 weeks. I'm looking forward to digging into it this weekend.
Netflix announced yesterday that an animated Castlevania series will be coming to the streaming service this year. It will apparently be a very violent, adult-aimed series based Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse and written by Warren Ellis. I am certainly intrigued. We haven't had anything Castlevania for several years now. Maybe Konami will leave the doldrums of pachinko behind and come back to making awesome games! But I'd settle for them licensing out their many great properties for other to work on at least. And hey, we're getting a Bomberman game on the Switch. I never thought he'd be getting a new game.
So I guess I'm screwing the pooch on BaD this year. Feeling kinda hollow right now. Hopefully something good will happen to pull me out of this black hole.
I meant to post this, but I fell asleep. So here's yesterday's blog today technically. It's that time again. Today I show the big box games/Special Edition games I've bought. So without further ado enjoy a synopsis of the games and what comes with them!
Im putting the date for the title, I have no idea what to even call this. So Im still playing Dragon Quest 7, Im close to the end. Im gonna try to grind and attempt to beat it tonight. I guess tomorrow you will know if I was successful or not.
This is a quick and not quite under the wire blog. In my defense, I was trapped under a cute, snuggly, sleeping cat who couldn't be disturbed. So I entertained myself by watching High Noon while trapped. Great movie, by the way, if you haven't seen it.
Hey Pixlbit friends, I haven't been around much, as I've been trying to do more artwork, and I find that I only have so much time for other things (I have even less time to play games now). I have gotten a taste (basically played a half hour to a few hours) of Final Fantasy XV, Resident Evil 7, Gravity Rush 2, and Last Guardian, and all are great games in my opinion. I also got an Xbox One right before Christmas, but haven't really played much on it (Recore is sitting on the shelf tempting me).
I already forgot to do a BaD. Actually I've been quite busy, but I'm reading and commenting when I can.
Today one of my clients came to me and asked me if I wanted to see all of his Yu-Gi-Oh! cards. The answer I gave was the only acceptable answer: heck yes I do. Way back when I worked at Toys-R-Us and Yu-Gi-Oh! had just became popular, they asked me if I wanted to host card tournaments for kids on Saturdays. I agreed, and I soon built a pretty good deck of my own. I sort of had to, these kids were good! It was a Light based deck. They were sort of impressed with me.
