The time draw near (that and I am on vacation) to finish the epic tail of eight survivors from Left 4 Dead 1 and 2. So in the coming days we should finally find out if the survivors have made it, or if they died a horrrible death. (Or maybe some of both.) Bear with me as the end draws near. Old Dude1
So last year I achieved Gold status and since none of the games interested me I gave someone a gift. So this year I'll do the same. I achieved gold status yet again, and once more the prizes don't very much interest me. I thought maybe Wario Ware or Superstar Saga, but I already have those. So here is a break down.
I swapped out Persona Q for Xenoblade last Friday to check it out for a bit, fully intending to go back after a few hours.
Here’s another batch of games I’ve been reviewing lately over at GamerDad.com. I promise this group of reviews is more interesting this time around, so please click on the links and read as many reviews as you can, and maybe even post a comment or two. I’d really appreciate it. Thanks! OK let’s begin.
So recently since Gamestop started printing codes on their recipts I've been getting double codes. Well I have a extra code for Goro. If you buy the game and don't have a code for him and would like one I'll gladly give it to you. It is for PS4.
When all through the house. Not an avatar was stiring, not even a Mii. My 3DS was closed by my laptop with care, with no hope that Reggie would soon be there. . . Then I started this blog.
Good Morning Pixlbit! Currently it is a cool 73 degrees here in my little piece of Southern California and I am running on a headache so if things don’t make sense in my latest blog you know why. Anyways how are you good people doing? I hope everything is well and GAME OF THRONES is back! Yesterday I caught the East Coast showing which is 6pm here just in case I wanted to watch it again during our regular airing. I dug it and I can’t wait to see what this season has in store (I kind of have an idea.) Anyways enough TV talk, that is Friday’s topic, so let’s get started with today’s update
So I apologize for my MIA time. Things got really crazy, like I suspected with work and the apartment. Things are finally calming down. I've got to game here and there but not alot. Alot of youtube in that area since I fall asleep easier to sound. At the sametime insomnia has been also making a visit here and there as well as depression. I figured all this would happen. New place, new adjustments, and new realizations of just how lonely I am out here. Only 1 friend lives close by and there going thru hard times themselves with finding work. The others are scattered and now apparently aren't talking to me. Oh well. Again sorry for my lack of response, when I'm being a Debbie downer I tend to become super less active. Still trying to work on that.
I replaced my original Xbox with my PS3 today at my friend's place. Between my 360 and PS3, there are a lot of games I can play. Just having access to both online stores lends itself to even more games through download. I think this is the best arrangement of consoles for me at my friend's place. I'd add my Wii as well if there was room, but there isn't. It's ok though. I got a TV at home now and I'm going to try and find some after-work time to play those.
Had 5K mud run this morning. Finished it in about 50 minutes to an hour, which is roughly double my usual 5K time. I knew there would be mud, but somehow underestimated how much it would slow me down and also did not realize there would be Ultimate Ninja Warrior shit like rock climbing walls, climbing ropes, hopping over things, sliding down barrels, jumping from angled square to angled square (hit first 3/4, then barely missed bottom of #4), crawling under ropes through mud, etc. etc. A couple guys I know who are ex-military said they don't like doing stuff like this because it reminds them too much of the military. My friend Ryan is ex-Army and said crap like this is the part he actually enjoyed though, so I dunno. All I know is that mud smells like actual shit and my brand new shoes seem ruined. Fantastic. At least they had free beer at the end, which seems ... ironic.
I did a game hunt today. I went to a mall outside my neighborhood to access the other Jay Street Video Games store in my area. This retro store has really grown over the last few years and now it's stocked to the gills with retro goodness. I have a short list of stuff I want to add to the permanent collection.; some I've played, others I haven't but want to. The results are pictured below.
This week I'm focusing on progressive, avant-garde, and jazz-fusion albums released in 1970. I first looked at what I had on my hard drive and then what I had but were vinyl album rips needing to be broken into tracks. Then I took the remaining list and did a library search, and today, I went to pick them all up. See the results below.
Pixlbit Nation, Happy Friday! This week was a bit slow but it picked up around Wednesday (doesn’t it always?) So how are you good people? Any fun plans for the weekend? I’m probably going to do my usual, but I will also throw in some things like go to the park, take some pictures, and maybe catch up on some video games I haven’t played in a bit. Anyways let’s get started with this week’s Quick Hits so I can go enjoy the outside weather!
So... I got my computer fixed. My Hard drive and Graphics card took inspiration from Robin Williams and killed themselves and the world wept. That cost $415. Brilliant. And it's got no games on it and I have no internet. FML. PS4 it is for me I guess. At least they recovered most of my music. It would literally take 24 hours to put all of my cds back on...
I caught the sickness that happens whenever I'm exposed to elements of the Etrian Odyssey games. I played one dungeon of Etrian Mystery Dungeon, noticed the dramatic similarity to the Etrian Odyssey Untold remake, and had to run out the next day and track down the other Etrian Odyssey influenced game, Persona Q.
got the secret ending too....killed Gehrman and the Moon Presence also.
