I've been home for about 3 hours and I feel like I'm still licking wounds from a punishing work day. It didn't start out that way. There was plenty to do and it went from manageable and risk-free and then halfway my boss shows up to assist in stripping wax off of a hallway for 7th graders and it turned nasty. I'll accept the blame that not all of the procedures of cleaning the doorways (when we stripped the classroom floors weeks ago) were followed, which complicated and prolonged the hallway stripping. My boss was just laying into me and a co-worker, all while we're feverishly trying to finish the hallway. While he was right, I just wish he'd fucking stopped earlier than he did. One of those days...
There is one title called Liege on Kickstarter that I read a bit about through an article on Gematsu. The game caught my interest since it was trying to get funding and was approved for a PS4/Vita port. I knew of course about Kickstarter for some other well-known developers who have gone to it and how it had become a huge thing for Indies. I didn’t pay much mind in checking it out and seeing how it’s structured. I am very intrigued and impressed more with it than Greenlight by the perks you can get for help funding it if it comes to fruition as well the goals that its set up to add things if it reaches a certain peak in funding. I plan on supporting a couple of games with some big money; well I wouldn’t say big money, but somewhere around 60 bucks to get something which could be considered special and more notably compared to collector’s editions that are sold by the thousands for AAA titles. This will be intimate and more personal to help out an Indie studio. It’s cool how the pledge gifts are set up and seem to get pretty crazy. It is impressive how someone would spend over a grand to help fund one game and people do and spent more.
Hey guys. I had a really, really shitty night last night, and you guys are the ones I'm going to vent on. Don't you just feel so priveledged? No? Didn't think so. Fuck it.
Those of you that know me from 1UP know that I love collection pics. So here are a few pics of my 3DS, Wii U, and Vita collections. Now these collections aren't exactly complete as I own numerous digital games on all the systems. This is especially true for my Vita which I currently have a pathetic phyisical collection for. Im also aware my Wii U collection is kinda small, but keep in mind I just got it last week. I don't have too much digital for that at the moment so that part of my collection consist of a few apps, Nintendo Land (came via digital voucher with my system) and Yoshi, and Donkey Kong which set me back a whole 30 cents each on sale.
Last week we looked at six great boss themes from video games. This week we're going to look at six final boss themes, y'know, the epic last boss battle at the end of the game! The moment you've been anticipating and dreading during the whole game! Final boss themes should be exciting and epic. Now let me point out that I'm skipping the really famous ones that everyone knows (such as FF6's Dancing Mad, FF7's One Winged Angel, and Super Mario 64's Ultimate Bowser). These are fantastic final boss themes, but I'm going to give you six of my favorites, perhaps some of which you have never heard. I hope you like them, and please let us all know what your favorite final boss themes are too
Hello Pixlbit world! I am kinda alive...kinda. So what's been going on? Well I shall tell you!
Even though Namco Bandai is my favorite video game company, of the three game makers featured in Project X-Zone, I’m probably more familiar with the Capcom roster in this 3DS action strategy RPG featuring heroes and villains from Namco Bandai, Capcom, and SEGA’s games. Since last time we looked at the Namco Bandai characters found in Project X-Zone, this time we’ll look at the Capcom ones.
Wassup niggas (It's funny because they aren't really people!) I made a list of the worst games ever.
This has easily been one the most interesting Summers for gaming that I've ever witnessed. The big ones obviously being what happened at, and after E3. But what's surprised me the most is this persistent narrative of "well, if one company is screwing us, then surely the other one is". Leading up to the E3 press conferences, the press seemed hell-bent on pushing Sony into the fire with Microsoft over the DRM and connectivity issues, despite any actual evidence to back this up. The idea seemed to be that there was no way a company so large would make such huge mistakes without being sure that the competition was going in the same direction.
I guess I'm gonna start copy/pasting my blogs that I write on 1up over here. Incoming........
And September will be a expensive game month for me with Xcom , GTA 5 and F1 2013 releasing real close to one another F1 2013 will have two versions this year the standard game for $49.99 or the classic eddition for $59.99 and the classic eddition has everything the standard does including the 1980 drivers and cars but the classic has the 90s cars and drivers plus two classic f1 tracks.
So "sharky," or known around these parts as asrealasitgets, created a Steam Group for all of us here on Pixlbit, and I think it's a fantastic idea - it lets us all see what games everyone has, share some games that are worth playing and might have flown under the radar, and of course, play some coop/multiplayer games together!
I'll be picking up my game after work today. Hopefully I can juggle it and Animal Crossing at the same time.
Hello Pixlbit! I thought I’d have a quick check-in on what games I have been playing.
So our A/C decided to throw in the towel last night in the midst of a heatwave hitting the ‘burgh. Oh how pleasant. To make the situation better, it just so happens that we’re moving this coming weekend so it couldn’t have happened at a better time, yay! Lots of packing to do and it’s too damn hot to sleep so I’m a just go full zombie this week.
