I played a lot of games on my 2013-2015 list this Labor Day. I also picked up some games from Just Press Play this week.
Well, I finished Gears of War 3 and played several others partially. I'm happy with my new plan which seems to push me to finish some games. I managed to finish the Mass Effect Trilogy finally.
I'm looking ahead to September. My playlist will cover 2013-2015, chosen from the greastest of all time lists on Metacritic. But first, some purchases.
Playtime included finishing Mass Effect 3 and getting hooked on replaying Gears of War 3. I touched on a bunch of others though.
Welcome to a creative edition of Nerds Without Pants! Patrick is out battling Thanos this week, but Julian and new third chair Justin get together and think up a concept for Final Fantasy XVI, along with our lovely listeners. The result is…a pretty cool game, actually! Also, Mortal Kombat 11 gets a Brutality, and Bloodborne takes on The Witcher 3 in Video Game Cage Match. Enjoy!
Welcome to an epic episode of Nerds Without Pants that’s sure to hit you square in the feels. Seriously, this one gets heavy, but thankfully there is plenty of fantastic music to see us through thanks to you, our lovely listeners!
With hundreds of new indie games spilling onto the scene each month, it's easy to overlook some of the more deserving but obscure titles. Thus, this blog.
Hiya everyone! The reason that I haven't written anything in a while was because I wanted to save a blog for this one, and make it extra long. Why is this blog special, you ask? Well that's because to this date, it's been a year since I began blogging! My first blog was on New year's eve last year, and to be honest, the only reason I made an account and wrote something was because I was bored and I was waiting for guests to come to my families new years party. I had no idea about the rabbit hole I was about to fall into! Here, read the juvenille ramblings of me a year in the past:
So I am just going to ramble about some random stuff I have been doing lately. I got a new laptop that is able to play the few PC games I own so I will have some fun pc gaming again. I grew up with PC games so I am quite excited to play so of my older games. Some of my best memories and the most time I have ever put into one game came from a little known game called Diablo 2.
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).
It looks like the final entry in the Crystallis saga will allow Lightning to move around enemies in battle and utilize a clothes swap mid battle system like that of Final Fantasy X-2 dresspheres. I also noticed a tail being sliced off of one of the enemies after staggering similar to the Valkyrie Profile or Resonance of Fate Tri-Ace games battle systems. Not too surprising since they did work on FFXII-2. This new games looks like FF13-2 plus FF 10-2 dresspheres.
I've also noticed a lot of negativity around this game and it's existance. Just reading comments on a youtube channel or forum. If not interested in this game, why go and vent hatred for something you don't care about anyway? I feel like I'm alone in anticipation for this game. I'm curious to know what Pixlbits feelings are regarding Lightning Returns. I for one enjoyed the series and find the new direction refreshing. Am I crazy?
One area of concern is if you are only playing as Lightning the whole game, minus party of characters or pokemons, it might get a bit repetative.
How’s it going Pixlbit! I don’t know about your weather but Southern California has been going crazy with really windy weather. It was tough to drive around yesterday with all the blowing sand and being in SoCal, it makes people go nuts, and the whatever is left of the Rules of the Road are thrown out the window (I had a guy blow a stop sign as I was entering the intersection, and didn’t give a rat’s arse as he blew by sudden stopped Chris). We have to look out for each other because some just don’t care.
The Elders Scrolls series has always been known for their lively modding community, and Skyrim is no different. Now a few weeks after the release of the creation kit we’re starting to see some amazing mods that add new challenges, content, and a few laughs.
