So over on NeoGAF and various other forums I visit, there was a huge row over a revelation in Eurogamer that the PS4 will only grant about 5.5GB of RAM out of the 8GB in the device, with a big portion of it walled off for the OS. You even had people talking about cancelling their pre-orders over this. Never mind that A) all those great demos we saw at E3 and other places were built around the assumption of just 4GB, or that B) it's likely that the OS will be pared down over time the same way the PS3's was.
I've been creeping my way through Darkroot Garden stabbing and poking plant-men and dodging and evading sword slams from stone giants before entering The Depths. The interesting thing is that I've gotten to the point in the game where the seemingly large and dangerous overworld that I slowly crept through in the beginning has now become smaller and less hazardous as I double back through old territories, which is good. However, after entering The Depths and falling through a floor trap of some kind I was unpleasantly cursed by a slimy frog of some sort. If you don't know what this does, then allow me to explain. Carrying a curse status cuts your total health bar in half! So where you had a nice advantage in a full health bar before, now you have to either go out of your way to farm for souls to buy special item to remove the effect, or keep on moving forward half the man you used to be making the game a hell of a lot more tedious. So I decided to take a break from the game for a while. It's so interesting how you can effectively master a game but then suddently get thrown a curve ball making you question your skills with one pitch. Am I bad ass enough to venture forward somewhat disabled, or do I tediously run around farming and buying items to fully recover? I'll decide whenever I start the game again, but not tonite.
Who the hell decided it would be a good idea to put a kitchen in the sewers? No wonder I was immediately infected. This butchers work space does not look sanitary.
Well, we have the family gathered for Sunday and my parents are watching PBS. This show called Endeavour is on via something called Masterpiece Mystery!, and my mom thought this one singer sounded like Adele. Dad and I said no, and she got upset, cause last time I told her she was wrong about something like this, I was wrong, and in both instances dad sided with me, cause I'm seen as the "media expert" in the household I guess, what with my Radio/TV degree and the fact I was reading movie reviews at age three.
Hello everyone! Long time, no see. I'm sorry for my lack in posting lately...I seem to be the poster child for Murphy's Law recently. My alternator went out, my power steering fluid is leaking, it's finals week at school, I haven't been able to ingest any solid food...so I'm also dying of hunger and exhaustion. Not to mention other things as well.
Here, have a video! This video is a touch more humerous than my last couple. It's also a touch more offensive. I was in a weird mood, don't judge me! So if you're offended by holocaust jokes, casual racism, casual sexism, and using body parts to paint walls, maybe don't watch this. If you're fine with it, watch this video! Subscribe and like if you like it!
Hey! Just wanted to remind everyone that Dandichu created a forum for pixlbit users here: http://pixlbit.freeforums.net/
Hey guys, I made an original song which you should check out. I'm reworking it and I'm going to use a portion of the song as the intro to my non music related videos. Hope you enjoy!
Hi there folks. I hope all is going well. I can't say the same for myself though. Been a rough last few weeks working and with family. Took a lot out of me. Anyway, there's something I've been meaning to ask people for opinions about and that's about critiques. I've been thinking about the stuff I've wrote recently, I really don't like the quality of what I've written. I want to improve what I write and definitely minimize the bad stuff. I was wondering what are the best ways to get critiques or feedback? I ask that question because I do ask for critiques periodically in my blogs but I don't get much of it. Its weird that I'm taking writing so seriously, even when I don't really have much interest going professional, but I just love writing and getting better at it. Its kind of like how I am towards fighting games. I enjoy the challenge and getting better at it. Its weird.
Sorry for the lack of updates here and for not replying to my last blog, PixlBit wasn't working for me. But that was an issue with my pc I think, the site works fine for me but not sure how much it'll last. I said I went to my doc a while back and everything is fine for now, but I'm going back this monday at 10 am (I live in the pacific area) to get a test done, please pray, hope, wish me good luck that the test comes out alright. I'll try to have something up about games and whatnot after monday or so. That's all for now and thanks.
Hello Pixlbit! Yesterday with the help of Twitter, I found out that Best Buy decided to laugh off the release date of the new Nexus 7, and started selling them (It would be nice if Best Buy did this with games, and consoles too). Now I’m perfectly happy with my current Nexus 7, but I really like this new version, and I decided to give my mom my current Nexus 7 (she’s been curious about tablets, and I knew it would go to a good home especially since the only internet stuff she visits is Facebook).
So this is besides GTA5 my most anticipated game of the year, and i have not seen this gameplay vid so i thought i would share it with y'all.
The Nightjar is an iOS audio adventure. That's right, it has no graphics whatsoever other than the interface pictured below (more on that in a minute). The story goes that you've been left behind on a failing space ship that is slowly falling into a collapsing star, though that's the least of your worries before the game is over. Your most immediate problem is the dark, of course. All you have to guide you to safety is the voice of a man you don't know (voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch of Sherlock fame). Will you trust him?
In the wake of the latest 3D boom fizzling out like the others, electronics companies like Sony, Samsung and others have hitched their wagon to 4K Ultra HD resolution. Offering the equivalent of four 1080p screens at once, 4K is being pushed as the next big thing in the same vein as HD was a few years back.
If for one minute Disney thinks bringing in John Williams to score episode VII, will lure me and those like me back to Satr Wars, they are sadly mistaken.
China is a massive country with lots of potential but its government holds its creativity back from what they can express and always been negative toward video games in various ways. It doesn’t help though that many cafes that host game sessions often result in violent clashes. It has on many occasions made the government step in to close gaming cafes and they put restriction on teens gameplay time. They are on the brink of making consoles legal to be sold there although they are sold already in public for years. This is could be considered a good jester but it also has economic incentives for the reasoning.
Well, I've been putting it off for awhile, but I've finally almost finished Final Fantasy V. The operative word, however, is "almost"...
