Hey folks. Before I go to PAX West in Seattle this coming weekend, I thought I’d post some more reviews I’ve written lately over at GamerDad.com. Plus update you all on some things in my life. Anyway, please click on and read as many reviews as you can, and maybe even post a comment or two. I’d really appreciate it.
Wow, My characters are all in the 50's and no battle has been anything less than easy and then I hit this one boss battle where the boss regens after 2 turns and then wipes me out on the 3rd.
I now have a 2 Terabyte Uncharted 4 PS4. It was dead simple to do. The backup took about 3 hours for close to 400 Gigabytes and the restore took about the same.
Holy crap! I can't believe it's been a whole month since I popped in here last! Actually, I can. I had to have Bandit put to sleep on August 7th. Poor old guy wasn't doing so good there towards the end - completely blind, losing control over his hind quarters, and then he started having trouble with the front legs, too. I miss him, the house is very quiet, and I miss not having him there to greet me whenever I came home. The cat misses him, too. She started sleeping on top of me and being extra clingy. And did I mention the house is too quiet? I don't miss him tripping over my controller cables, though.
I just wanted to say hi to you all. Hope you are all doing well. I wonder how many of you are here/still here. Things sure have changed since 1up.
Hey there boys and girls. Santa Moth has presents for everyone. I bought the Humble Playstation bundle and really there was only one game in there I wanted which was RE 0 for PS4. I have the following keys to give away
As I’m trying to get back on a normal schedule I really wanted to not do a Quick Hits today so I can get some other random tasks done like finish my Ultimate Playlist and start on the shorter version of the list for my phone but since I’ve been slacking a bit the last couple of weeks it was better for me to just get things going. Sound like a plan? Good let’s get started!
The code is for the PlayStation Store. Let me know if you want it and I'll PM it to you.
I’ve been slacking here but I’ve been busy and I haven’t had much time to collect my thoughts and put them to paper…or to be honest on Microsoft Word. Anyways I have a couple of minutes so why not give an update on what I’ve been playing.
Lots of stress for me this week with a change in management at my work. The unknown, waiting for the new boss to show, is worse than anything. I think I went through several levels of depression and anxiety this week and it's not over yet, not until Tuesday and I go back to work and see what's what. So I've been having trouble completely enjoying the games I've been playing, but I played them nonetheless: a short session on Saturday playing Peggle and Defense Grid 2, and then a whole day of it on Sunday with Skylanders Superchargers. Breakdown ensues (although not my mental breakdown. That's incomplete and hopfully stays that way).
A bunch of random shit. First still playing I am Setsuna and 7th Dragon and loving both of them.
Well, summer’s almost over, so you know what that means. It’s time for me to talk about the movies I saw this summer (and some in the spring, too), as well as movies I wanted to see but didn’t get a chance to. I’ll try to keep things spoiler-free, but there may be a few that slip out, so just be warned. So let’s do this thing!
Gamestop's having their 3-for-2 sale on Wii games this week, so I bought a bunch. Here's a pic:
I put off gaming for a week and just spent my free time reading and watching tv for a change. I live in Southern California and we're in the middle of Summer and heat waves make it miserable to play games indoors, especially PC games, since I don't have AC, preferably, and I spend more time outdoors anyway during the summer anyway.
Xenoblade Chronicles X
I've put about 50 hours into the game and forced myself to take a break. I can't remember the last time a game kept me immersed and unable to quit since maybe Witcher 3. I would not compare the two in any way aside from the time sink they both require. I don't even think some of the bad reviews for X were wrong. It is definitely built around old school level grinding, but it is oh so perty though. I feel like I've barely scratched the surface and I still need to understand the depth of combat and weapons options. I also want to play more of it, but a good break never hurt any game. I think taking a hiatus from a good game makes it feel fresh and new again when you pick it up again.
As you know, I recently purchased a new computer, which is decently powerful and runs games well enough for my liking. Since I got a decent CPU this time, an Intel one, and not a shitty AMD one that can’t do shit, I decided to give the Dolphin Emulator a go, and boy am I glad I did.
Fucking Seriously. All I want to do is buy the fucking Mass Effect Trilogy with all the fuckinh DLC. Is that too much to fucking ask? None of the fucking editions of any of the fucking games come fucking bundled with any of the fucking dlc on PC fucking, and fucking that's fucking ludicrous fucking fucking given how fucking vital they are to the fucking story of the fucking games.
I know I said I wouldn't do it, but I did anyway. I thought about how some rpgs on Nintendo systems tend to go scarce out here in the wild soon after release, so I thought I'd better lock this one up.
Good morning Pixlpeeps! Today I thought I would do a combo blog of sorts seeing how I skipped Quick Hits last week, and I didn’t play much this week. Sound good? Cool let’s get started because it is hot and sticky here in Southern California and I need to run some errands before it gets really bad, and I don’t want to be outside when it does.
Monday was a day of e-sport, a day of whimsy. Lots of time spent in front of a TV with a controller in hand. It's what we do, we gamers. Halo, Peggle, Skylanders. It's genres all over the place, but that's how I like it. On to the details.
...Right so I'm alive..(Sort of..) just got busy...Being busy and some other stuff..Yeh, gotta see about posting some stuff later possibly but..Been meaning to get some practice time with the tablet and..Generally try to get to sketching more..Sorta took an almost-break-away from it for a bit..But anyhow..Did wallpapers..Only really got to uploading these..
Okay, so I'm stealing this from a few people on here, but I think it's a good format. I mainly just want to be more frequent on here and engage in some community discussion in a much more simple and direct format without having to write 500+ words.
On Friday and Saturday I finished up with The Order 1886 and Crystal Defenders. Next on my backlog list was Halo: C.E. so Mark and I played it within The Master Chief Collection on XBO part of Saturday and all day Sunday. Here's a breakdown.
