Happy Friday Pixlbits…and you new PS4 owners, Congrats! Oh new console time is always fun, there is going to be a ton of blog posts here about the new consoles, games, and opinions, and I can’t wait to read them…just remember no spoilers for us few who didn’t buy the consoles on launch. Again congrats and around January or February I will be joining your ranks.
There is a lot of games I enjoyed in the closing of the current generation. I was impressed with many titles but not all of them made the list. I left out a few I would go ahead and mention such as The Walking Dead, Assassin's Creed 2, Bioshock, and Bioshock Infinite. Here is my top ten...
well I havent posted much over the last few weeks because Ive been going through drama hell. I also had some money issues arise as well. Some things that happened:
On the night of the PS4 release I began thinking about what game got me to buy a PS3. It was launch day game Untold Legends: Dark Kingdom.
I stopped into Target yesterday and found myself in the videogame section. I only stopped by to see if they had PS4 games in stock. They did have the games, but I was somewhat surprised to see a demo unit for the PS4. It looks pretty sweet in person. I was not as wide or thick as I was expecting, but it is fairly deep. So deep that I am a little worried that it won't fit on my entertainment center. That is not really important because I booted up Knack and only played for a minute or so, but it felt simple but good. Also, it looked very nice.
Anyways, I read this article on GamesIndustry.biz and it got me thinking about Nintendo. These thoughts started to get me excited, and making theories based off of absolutely nothing. This is what I was thinking about...
I'm pretty excited for my PS4 on Friday and with it I'm taking a gamble with Killzone, a series I normally hate, yet is making changes to the campaign that could win me over, and Skylanders, my safe bet. Having jumped on last year when I saw a good deal on Giants, I promised myself I would not get too far down this rabbit hole. Despite a collection of 11 Skylanders, I still like to think that as I have only spent more than $5 on one of these guys. So here's my Skylanders before I get Swap Force (and inevitably more swap figures because that's way too cool a gimmick for me to only limit myself to 2).
I am very happy to be trying to kick ass in my fifth tournament.
I have been trying to figure out exactly what I wanted to say all day. I have scrapped three or four different drafts because they never felt quite right. I am really hoping that this draft sticks because I am getting a little sick of deleting my work.
All week I was playing Etrian Odyssey: Millennium Girl: 63 hours now and level 54. It’s interesting to figure out how to get monsters to drop certain items. Some have to be paralyzed first, or frozen, or fought only with smashing weapons. There’s a huge variety of approaches that will elicit certain items. Occasionally, a person in the pub will tell you how to do it, but most of the time you just have to figure it out by trial and error.
The original article for the pixel mosaics around North Texas has continued to collect sightings, and I think we'll keep putting them there as we go. I figured I'd summarize it all here in a fresh blog post for your (and my) convenience.
I still have so many current gen games to play, even with getting a PS4 Thursday night. I've put aside my playthrough of Metro: Last Light after downloading one of the free games available on PS Plus last month: Kingdoms of Amalur.
It’s that time again for more links to game reviews I’ve written lately at GamerDad.com! Please click on and read as many as you can, I’d really appreciate it! Maybe you could leave a comment, too! This batch seemed to be based on a lot of cartoon licenses, so hence the blog title.
Good morning Pixlbit! I’m actually typing this on Sunday Morning and later in the evening, because I will probably be out tomorrow enjoying the extra Weekend Day for Veterans Day (for you folks who served, a very big Thank You!) Another reason why I am typing this up today is because I am currently restoring my iPad.
According to the link here Sony's license agreement for PS4 games states that you are not allowed to sell or rent PS4 games without their permission and that you don't actually own the games even if you bought them at retail.
I'm actually surprised the site kept my profile.
Are you getting psyched about a flashy new PS4 in your home this Friday? If you are planning on getting one, post your PSN ID in the comments here and other PixlBit members can add you to their friends list. I’ll try to compile a list within the body of this post until we’ve made it through the launch window a little bit. This way, we can all enjoy the launch games we’ll be making fun of in two years together!
