The future had finally arrived: Internet was booming, even I bought a computer, cars were flying, and we had rocket shoes and teleporters. Replicators had replaced the need for making products resulting in a complete restructuring of society. No one had to work (except for those guys, like Homer Simpson, who had to watch for nuclear plant malfunctions. Boy, that probably sucked). We all just laughed and played all day long. But you could work in the game's industry if you wanted to entertain folks; creative work was still available, if you had the itch - totally voluntary though. And everthing was run by two computers, an IBM and an Apple. They were at war with each other though, but we watched their robot wars on the TV. So fun!
Well I've been playing Super Mario Maker endlessly. I'm totally hooked. Still Super Mario Maker doesn't include everything a Mario fan could hope for. In fact there are a few things that seem to be missing. So with that in mind is there a possibility Nintendo could pump some DLC out for it? They certainly can! With that said here are the top 5 things I would like to see added to this great game!
Managed to get through last week and now I’m working through this week. Wednesdays have been insane for me since for the last couple of weeks there were 10 hour shifts I was scheduled for. It doesn’t help that we get more business now since the other store was torn down for remodeling. While we did get a few of the employees from the other store it still feels like we’re getting our asses kicked.
Guess what? Today (September 15) is my birthday! So you’re all invited to my pretend birthday party right here on my blog! We’ll do what I always do every year. Please give me a pretend birthday present in the comments section. It can be anything you want! It’s the thought that counts…literally! I could use some pretend birthday presents because I’m turning 39 this year so I could use some cheering up! Ha ha! And if you give me a pretend birthday present, you get a piece of pretend birthday cake! And since it’s pretend birthday cake, if you eat it, you’ll get super strength and fire breath! And speaking of presents, I have some gifts for you! Game reviews recently posted at GamerDad.com! Yay! Please read as many as you can and maybe even post a comment or two. I’d appreciate it. Thanks!
Happy Tuesday Pixlpeeps! Since today is the big release day I’m assuming most of you folks are roaming around the Destiny Universe (not my cup of tea), but I hope you enjoy your game. I didn’t play much this past week, other than maybe a couple of word searches and crossword puzzles on the 3DS. I did however build my Millennium Falcon and I thought I’d do a comparison between the 2015 set (75105) and the 2004 set (4504). If you’re not interested no hard feelings, I’ll add some video game content next week.
I've got Super Mario Maker, and made an airship stage I think works fairly well. Check it out here:
Hello everyone. I figured I'd share some exciting news!
Almost a month ago, I did a half-arsed small update. I predicted that I would be unactive once again and in a case that could make Nostradamus jealous, I was right. The only difference being that I went through over 70 blogs, although I actually paid attention to most of them this time. University still made me busy and though there were plenty of chances to check the blogs, I was indeed lazy. However, I did say I would make an update. Yeah, it's a month later, but I never said it would have a fixed date. So here's it is, all killer no filler, what i've been doing since BaD ended.
Hello my nipple pinching hobgoblins, I have returned from my holiday bearing gifts! And those gifts are my words. And those words are about to be spoken, and they will be digested by you.
Both are on sale on PS4 until 9/14 for Playstation's 20th anniversary.
So, September 9th happens to be the anniversaries of the US launches of two of my favorite consoles ever.
I started a blog entry a couple of weeks ago and didn't get far, I copied it and I'll paste it in, just so I don't have to try to dredge up what was going on out of the cobwebbed recesses of my brain:
Yes it's year 2000 this week in my little game of revisiting the years. So what happened? Armageddon of course. Y2K fears became a reality and civilization as we know it collapsed. Mayhem ensued and only a few survived in special bunkers created by various governments of the world. Luckily, I was able to use my prodigious survival skills to discover the location of one and get in. Now I write these blogs across the sole remaining network that links to the other bunkers, but you all know that part.
When it comes to reviews or retrospectives on media like games, music, art etc. there is nothing I hate more than someone declaring what all our tastes should be.
As I thought, I finished up the last two achievements in Lost: Via Domus today in a couple hours. I won the challenge because Mark finished his about an hour later. Then I went back to Borderlands: The Presequel to attempt some other achievemetns.
Since backing off on Fantasy Life I've managed to put 11 hours into Grandia II on Steam. I have 10 of 36 achievements or whatever the heck they're called and I'm still enjoying the game. Two things that are pissing me off are the crappy looking SD cutscenes and the lack of a map for the dungeons.
