Yesterday – Forgot to mention I saw Godzilla in IMAX 3D. That enormous IMAX screen really does envelop you in the movie. I found myself looking around within the screen like I was at a real place. The movie was fine. I was hoping for more of a wacky Pacific Rim style, but it was pretty true to the formula of those old Japanese monster movies. I enjoyed it.
it's almost 3 a.m. PST. I've been having a hell of a time trying to keep a regular sleep schedule lately; mostly since I've been injured and healing I've been up all night and sleep well into the afternoon. I'm going to go with it a couple more nights and then try to stay up the necessary hours to get myself back to rights.
I haven't even had time to upload another Picture Mountain or do my class journals, so instead I just now made a bulletted list of all the crap we've done so far including celebrity sightings, which I'll upload pictures of and go into detail about later.
Been a while... I haven't been gaming much lately. Between catching up on work, sleep, and dealing with a mystery illness (possibly the start of an ear infection) that was causing balance and vertigo issues, I just haven't been terribly motivated to either game or blog. Anyhoo, here's what I've been up to:
Well Good Morning good people of the Pixlbit Community! Hope the weekend was good and filled with tons of gaming, and you might have knocked a couple of games from your backlog/pile of shame. So here we are on a breezy Monday morning (it’s an odd 81 degrees, and quite breezy here in Sunny SoCal). I’d like to say I tried out a bunch of games but let’s be honest I’ve been playing a ton of MLB The Show with Video Game Chris is near the end of his first full season in the majors chasing the triple crown. It’s getting tough because every pitcher on the planet is throwing low pitches and the slider is eating me alive. I saw this last week and I thought I would share it with you good people
It’s Monday morning and there’s not enough coffee in this office to fill my need.
this past Friday I watched a video over at the Game Informer site that documents the sorry attempt of Dan Ryckert to get into a game of League of Legends. He'd completed the tutorials and knew what the basic ideas were in the game, and he even lucked out to the extreme with the people he was partnered up with as teammates during matchmaking. Ryckert more or less throws the match due to his disinterest in changing tactics during the game...if you watched the video, you'd see that he just does the same things over and over regardless of how they affect his team.
2:00 pm – I set up the PS2 and Taito Legends 2, a large collection of arcade games made by Taito.
Well, well, well...I have seemingly vanished like someone who seems to be very busy in real life.And you would be correct. Life has taken me for a real ride, but I have good news that I am in fact alive and kickin'. I even bought more games for my Wii U! And even better is Mario Kart 8 is coming soon! I know I'm excited.So now my Wii U games list includes Batman Arkham City: Armored Edition, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge, Rayman Legends, Resident Evil Revelations, Super Mario 3D World, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Black List, and Warriors Orochi 3.
....that the Pixies song Gigantic they use in their commercial is about some guys penis?
Happy Friday good people of Pixlbit! My latest edition of Quick Hits is a little late because I had some things to do in the morning, watched Aztec Softball at lunch (they were playing that team in Ann Arbor at Arizona State), and since I have some time now, in the very warm SoCal…it’s 107 freakin’ degrees! 107! I thought about going thrift store hoppin’ but since it’s hot, I’m spending time with Mr. Air Conditioning. Ok so this week’s Quick Hits with Chris is a little bit of everything. Stuff from gaming to pickups to television. Sound like fun? Well good, let’s get this party started!
Just a quick rundown of stuff that's been happening recently, for anyone who's interested.
This has to be the funniest video that involves gaming that I have watched in a long time.
I haven't posted any blogs in a while because my PC died and it needed a few upgrades. This recent super heat wave in Southern California killed my cooling systems! But everything is fixed now and all systems are go!
The Victoria Day long weekend is almost upon us. The weekend that Canadian's celebrate Queen Victoria's Birthday which is May 24th. Most Canadians refer to this weekend as the May Two Four Weekend.
Here's an email I got this morning explaining the changes to Live coming in June.
