Hey, remember old stuff? Sure, ya do! Well head over to our forums and read threads and post in threads and start threads about your retro game topic du jour.
I'll have to do some kind of make-up blog where I play like a bunch of vidyer games, but for now, here's what I've been up to and what I have planned for my birthday today.
I need to make this quick because I really don't want to type a novel on the iPad.
This is just a friendly reminder that we have forums now and therein can be found some free things that I and others are giving away. Sure, I could post a direct link, but howzabout you click the "Forums" link in the menu bar and check the whole thing out.
I pulled out the Wii the other day to play some Data East Arcade Classics, having temporarily burned out on 100 plus hours of Borderlands 2 (my buddy is still playing it though). This is a no frills collection of 15 games, some of which are given their Japanese names like: Sly Spy is Secret Agent, Two Crude Dudes is Crude Buster, and Bump ‘N Jump is Burnin’ Rubber. The UI is very basic and also unintuitive as I had to fiddle around to find the menu describing the controls for each game. Majesco did a pretty uninspired and bare bones job on this collection. There is cabinet art and music in the extras, but no interviews or history. You have to unlock these by playing the games, but I played every one and only a few unlocked. What unlocks them? Who knows. Thanks Majesco (dripping with sarcasm).
So i moved all my systems and games to my bedroom so my kids and there freinds dont mess with my games plus I have a 3 year old who gets into everything and im worried he will pull down my systems so the wife let me move everything to the beroom and although its a smaller tv it still does great see.......
Happy Friday Pixlbit Nation, how are you good people doing? I am finally over this bug, well the majority of it anyways, which feels good because after spending a lot of time sleeping this past week I can finally get back to normal. So what has Chris been doing during this time? I know you want to know so let get this week’s Quick Hits started!

Today, I'm 45. The age my grandparents were when I was born. For some reason, 40 didn't bother me, but 45 sounds old. Whatever. I don't feel much different than I did when I was in my 20s, so Im just going to shrug this silly feeling off.
I know I said that things would be back to normal, well I apologize, Im currently going through the stage were my body is sore a lot, Im tired as hell so I go to bed early for once stage of my dieting. Normally when ur close to losing your first 10 to 15 pounds this stage happens. Which is good, it means ur making progress to change your body and the habits that follow it. I also have barely drank anything with caffine recently. I only drink soda at my bfs since I normally have my splurge day with him and I havent drank a lot tea recently. I surprisingly have been drinking water, just plain water straight. Why is it surprising? I normally cant do it for long periods of time. The taste gets boring for me and I go back to other things. Anywho, thats why Im slow to respond right now. Im gonna do my best to catch up but it will take a bit for me. I can not wait for this to even out!
Hello Pixlbit. I hope everyone is having a great week so far. Earlier this week I bought the Ear Force XO Four Headsets. As I mentioned on my last post, I wanted to return the Xbox One Stereo Headset to try these out. You can really tell the major difference between the headsets. Since I talked a lot about debating between headsets on my last blog post, I'll only explain the pros and cons about the XO Four's.
Because I've been so shitty at keeping up with my Media a Day idea for this month, due to Spring Break vacationing with family, my body completely passing out at 5pm during Spring Break for some reason, and the sudden workload that hit after not doing a damn thing but having fun with family and relaxing during Spring Break, I decided to go to a random video game generator site to find games to talk about.
I've been sold on getting a PS4 for quite some time now, and after waiting and waiting....and waiting, I've finally managed to find and secure a Playstation 4 at my job. While I won't be able to fully afford it until tomorrow, it's pretty much mine. I can't wait!
When Ben asked the community here if anyone wanted to write some music for his RPG, Gutterdelve, I was tied up finishing the last song for Pirate Code. But I sent him a message once I was done with that, asking if he still needed music. He said it'd be great to have some boss music. It took me a couple weeks to work on it (life was busy), but then he didn't answer his messages because he was so consumed with finishing the game...and never got the song.
Here’s another batch of games I’ve been reviewing lately. As always, please click on and read as many as you can, and maybe even post a comment or two if you’d like. I’d appreciate it. Thanks a bunch. OK, on to the reviews!
This is a rich treasure trove of Okami imagery (which I wish I could center on the page. The library computer I sometimes use doesn't let me do this). There's concept art, character designs, lots of art done for the Okami website, art done for various magazines, E3 2006 banner art, postcard art, some of the first drawings done as the game was just beginning, and even a short manga that was circulated internally at Clover Studios.
