Pixlbit nation, it is only a couple of days until a fat dude in red hands out gifts. Isn’t it an exciting time? I do love the Christmas season. The cool weather, people decorating their homes, the music, and buzz at malls. Ok the last one is kind of funky but I do dig it. Anyways since this is my ultra rare Quick Hits, Christmas Special Tin Case Day One Edition With Pre-Order Bonus, anything you good people are hoping to get? As an adult I still like to look under the tree to find boxes with my name on it, so I’m hoping for presents. I don’t care if it is clothes, toys, video games, just as long as I get something to open! Anyways let’s get this special combo blog started shall we?
I started the day by going to Hope’s Cookies for cookies and John’s Village Mart for hoagies. That stuff was darn good!
As the holidays approach, everyone seems to be in a joyful mood. Well, usually. This year, however, I see nothing but gamers yelling at each other and trying to prove each other hypocrites. And I know I do not just speak for myself when I say I am sick of it. So I decided to help steer us in the right direction. And there is only one way to do so: Festivus.
Hi there folks. I know its been awhile but before I say hello, I though I would alert you all about some few unfortunate digital game delistings happening soon. The first is Marvel Vs. Capcom Origins, the digital combo pack of Capcom's Marvel Super Heroes and Marvel Vs. Capcom. Yes, regretablity MVCO is following Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 and Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 and is being pulled from both Xbox 360 and PS3. You have until tomarrow to get the game on PS3 and till the 31st on 360. Origins is a really great game, not the best work done by Iron Galaxy and their Capcom fighter ports, but still really awesome, and with stellar netcode to boot. No clearence sales for the games though but if you have any feint hunger for old Capcom fighters, I'd suggest you pick it up now. Its $15.
Humble has this huge Dynamite comics bundle going right now and each day they give away 1 comic. They are in PDF format only (The purchased ones can be downloaded in various formats) but they are free.
Started the day with a little virtual fireplace. It's an Indie game on Xbox Live called simply Fireplace and you can set it up anyway you want and watch it burn. Toasty. I roasted my chestnuts too.
Which one is better? I'm eyeing and will probably buy Origins before the sale is up on Jan. 2, but which one do you think is better? May hold out to see if Legends goes on sale and get it instead if so.
I've been playing Dragon Age Inquisition for about a solid month now. Thus far, I'm over 40 hours in, and have just romanced the sensual Orlesian diplomat Josephine Montilvyet.
Took a quick trip to the mall at Plymouth Meeting to take the photo below at my local retro store, Jay St. Video Games. The traffic was horrendous and I got in and out of there as fast as I could.
After today, not only can the Green Bay Packers clinch a playoff berth with a win over the Tampa Bay Bucaneers, but the Dallas Cowboys can clinch a division title with a win over the Colts tomorrow. My prediction is both will be hard fought games (the former despite low public expectations for the Bucs, the latter despite low expectations of the Cowboys), but both my teams will win. We'll know in a few hours.
Who gee! What did I play this year. So many games! I'll stick to what just came out this year and split this up into three parts: Regrets, Bought but Forgot, and Played. It'll all wind up with the last entry being my Game of the Year, or Goaty as I like to say it (yes I know it's actually GOTY).
Again, it has been while since I last wrote. I was actually keying up to write about some of the new anime shows I have been watching on WordPress but I just read today that there’s malware in some peoples blogs. I am going to refrain from using it until I know it has been solved; I have no idea if I am one of the people whose blog got affected, so I figure better safe than sorry. Plus I wouldn’t want to have you guys get infected with malware by clicking on my link.
As I type this, I've downloaded the Ultra update for Super Street Fighter IV (360). I've cleared some space on my hard drive to accomdate for reinstalling the game (from disc). I can't fucking believe it but I'm actually giving this one another shot. Yes, it has to do with the big news about SFV coming to PS4 in the future. That Ultra SFIV will be on the way didn't inspire me to wait for that release. While I didn't stay committed to truly remaining good, I've always admired SFIV. I always thought I could pop it in and play for a little while. I didn't count on the many distractions that life threw my way. Despite that, I felt the need to support the game: upgrading to Super, then Arcade Edition and now finally to Ultra.
People watch and listen to the news daily because they want to be updated. The news consists of information about events and happenings in the country and around the world. Those who are huge fans of the gaming industry often want to hear and read about the latest updates. These people who enjoy playing and wish to improve their level of skill always want to be updated. Even those who are only mildly interested will learn a lot from reviews as well. If the news is unavailable, they will not be able to learn anything new about the industry and this will be a huge disadvantage for him.
i am taking requests for this so, if you want me to give info on a certain prehistoric animal, let me know.
Well Happy Friday you crazy Pixlbiticans! Currently in my little piece of what is usually Sunny Southern California it is 48 degrees and cool enough for hockey jersey weather! Yes what is usually my favorite time of the year because I get to wear my favorite jerseys but the jersey that I always wear first is this one
It's certainly close to that time of the year, when the Steam Christmas sales have just begun, people now wait for a fat man to go down a chimney (or if you live in Colombia and some other Latin American countries, baby Jesus somehow being able to give gifts) and many media websites are just making, just made or are about to make their end of the year lists and video game media is no exception.
Kind of disappointing, so far it's pretty much a movie. You just watch the story unfold instead of picking a character and fighting thru matches. I'm really getting sick of fighting games doing this. While alot people might like fighting games for competition I've never been an online fighter type, there are too many assholes online and I know I'm not good at them. I do my best to learn the characters but for the most part I've just never been good with connecting moves, learning guard breaks, or special moves that require u to do a tap dance number across the screen. I play them for the story mode/arcade mode mostly. Soul Calibur ruined its story mode with SC5. It was short and overall disappointing since there was a huge lack of characters in it and u were cut down to 3 people that u played as during it. Not to mention, u didn't get a choice who u played as. I'll update more as I go in the coming days but I hope there is more to this. I love Guilty Gear, I love it's characters, music, and style. However I do love it's story too and it's sad to see it get wasted lIke this. I was really excited to fight thru the story
Here's the final half of the blog, and the remaining eight songs. Once this two parter is out of the way I can focus on the real update. I'm surprised at how long it took me to put this music thing together. Actually, putting it together has been a breeze, but making the list about which songs to include took me two days! What?! What am I even doing with my life?!
