Nope, it's not a prank.
I tried to get farther in Rage 1 again. I got a little farther but not very much. I really like graphics and post apocalyptic setting, but I ultimately don't like the controls.
So I’ve been away for a couple of days and away from the laptop. Sure having the phone is nice but there’s nothing like having a full on laptop to type away, and just have the screen real estate to watch videos, read, and maybe play some games. I did however have my phone, which don’t get me wrong is still one heck of a media device, and my Switch so during down times I did play some games. Funny thing about this is that at times I forgot today is Tuesday. I kept thinking it was Monday.
A few weeks ago, while I was randomly looking for things in my library's catalog during work - something I do frequently when things aren't hectic - I came across Skylanders comics collections. I didn't even know there were comics for this game series. Well, I had to start reading them, didn't I, and I have at about 1 per week since then.
Well good morning Pixlpeeps! It is a breezy Friday here in what is normally sunny Southern California. I should be eating a regular breakfast but yesterday while buying some groceries I saw that the local Winco carries Tim Tam’s, and I think from a random YouTube video I saw someone mention it and how great they are. It’s there, I figure what the hell, and I bought a pack. Hey Australia, it’s not that bad. Currently I have a couple on a plate and that’s what I am chewing on while typing.
You would think by this point I would have stopped playing free-to-play games on the Switch but here we are again and I am about to talk about more freebie games that I’ve been playing. Yup, F2P, not the games I used actual money on…well I might sprinkle in one game, but the majority of my game play has been nothing but free-2-play.
I have been playing through Sekiro since it launched back in March. In a normal year, i probably would have finished it by now, but life keeps getting in the way. Over the weekend things started to click and now all I want to do is play more Sekiro and talk about Sekiro ad naseum.
I’m going to save the day with more game reviews I’ve recently written at GamerDad.com! Please click on the links and read as many as you can, and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two. I’d appreciate it. OK, let’s go!
I've stated on here repeatedly that I don't listen to Podcasts, but I'm trying - I've been subscribing to literature and a few classical music ones on my Apple app. I keep telling myself to listen to them, but I haven't yet. What will probably happen though is once I do, I'll get into the routine of it.
So yesterday I had maybe two paragraphs typed up before I got sidetracked with enjoying the breezy/rainy weather here in normally sunny Southern California. I ended up spending the day with the windows open listening to random finds on Spotify and enjoying the beginning of my weekend. Saturday morning rolls around and here I am, hoping to actually update you good people on the ramblings of my week. Let’s get started.
So here I am sitting here enjoying my leftover pizza and listening to Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons and it hits me that I never uploaded my latest entry on Monday. Instead of doing so I figured I would just rewrite it adding new typos and sentences that are probably repetitive, random, make no sense, and would be omitted if I would just take the extra five minutes to reread the post, but then it wouldn’t be my ramblings. Anyways let’s get started
I got so long-winded last time when talking about the games in my last blog on the mini PlayStation Classic that I decided to split it into two blogs. So if you haven’t read that one yet, I encourage you to please do so. Anyway, here’s the second batch of games on the PlayStation Classic. I don’t have as much to say about most of these games, so hopefully this will go by a little faster.
So yesterday I was sitting in the hospital lobby (no worries my family member was getting a checkup in the doctor’s office that is next door, and I don’t like sitting in that waiting room) and I swear I spent two hours playing that Gem War game on the Switch. Yes I spent $225 on a console so I could play a freebie game. I swear. The time did go by fast and I hit the orb lottery by getting 5,000 as a reward so I maxed out my four characters and I will most likely do the same with the other characters I have so I can actually start mixing and matching lineups.
With my new system that simplifies how I decide what weapons to equip, I had some brain space available to figure out strategies that combine the effects of all the different item types my character has in Borderlands.
