Hello everyone of Pixlbit!

It's a little late but I felt like doing this anyway. I don't really have a numbered top 10 because I don't feel that strongly about the games that would be at the bottom of the list. I also don't have an order for most of these. I have a clear #1 and a top 5 but that's about it. I'm just going to jump right into my #1 game of 2013.

2013 was a great year for video games in my opinion. There was a pretty wide range of enjoyable titles throughout the year for all platforms, and it's been a joy trying to get my hands on them all. I'd rather not rank them, but rather recognize them for their qualities. Here's my list!

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I visited my family (about 30+ of us) in a Thanksgiving dinner. It was calm and I watched some football and took it easy. In the past, I have gone to Black Friday sales, not this year though. 100% of my Black Friday purchases were online, no fighting in stores for me. So picked up some great games:
 

Even after playing, and enjoying games with heavy stealth influences like the Batman: Arkham series and The Last of Us, I wouldn’t say that I prefer stealth games.  So, going into Splinter Cell: Blacklist, I was hesitant.  My past experience with the series is terribly limited, having spent the most time with 2010’s Splinter Cell: Conviction. Though I initially worried that I wouldn’t find my footing, I quickly found that Blacklist had a lot to offer and by the time the credits rolled, I was more than happy to have experienced it.

The gaming season is about to heat up. It hasd been a pretty decent month for gaming. There wasn't much I am interested on the 360. I used to get all my third party titles on the 360 but I decided to change that since my PS3 is getting more attention by its many exclusive titles that are coming out over the last year.

August is gonna be a crazy month for game releases. Its like lets end summer with a bang in video games!!!! Well even though there are several Id like to pick up Im sadly gonna have to make scarficies. While I dont have to save up the entire ammount for the PS4 in August I need to start saving up for it and atleast have 200 something saved up by the end of the month so that the last bit which will prolly be around 245 can be saved up between September and October. I preordered it off Amazon so I cant put money down on it like someone who preordered at Gamestop. I get paid 3 times in August so that will be achieveable since I can separete bills in 3 ways and save any spare cash up. The games I am for sure getting in August are Dragons Crown and Final Fantasy 14: Realm Reborn. I wanted to get Tales of Xillia, Killer is Dead, The Bureau: Xcom Declassified, and Saints Row 4. I most likely will have to wait though until I know its okay to spend spare cash on them. What are your current buys for August or are you staying away from buying any new games?

I was reading an article on Game Rant about 3 titles that have been kind of in limbo for a while that might make an apperance at E3. How they came to this info is quite interesting because I went to the site they talked about and it shows whos attending E3 and some show their products when you click on the link for them. Im gonna post a few with their products under their name. The 3 games by the way are Warriors Lair, Beyond Good and Evil 2, and The Last Guardian.

Tomorrow is the big announcement from Microsoft regarding their next generation console. I expect this to be very similar to the Sony press conference from February, where they will unveil some facts but keep some other stuff under wraps until E3. Regardless, I expect this PC to feature much of the same propaganda that people such as Aaron Greenberg and Larry "Major Nelson" Hyrb have been using for the last 8 years. I don't happen to know who will be on stage tomorrow but I expect the pro-Microsoft video game media and their so-called "journalists" (who are really nothing but weak-minded, greedy hardcore gamers who got in good with somebody) to eat up these announcements like the people Joseph Goebbels brought in for his Sportpalast Speech in 1943.

I finished up Gacaumelee. That was an awesome game and a great fit to play on the Vita. Games like that will easily have me play my Vita more. I first started on the PS3 and then went to the Vita and like how it easily transitioned and played great on both. I would like an easily transition from the PS3 to PS4 as well as the next Xbox but what I mean by this is simply having a lot of the multiplatform games planned for the PS3/360 available on the next gen systems. It would be nice to have the best version, already grow the next gen library faster, and move on quickly. What are those games? A lot of them are obvious choices that I would assume most would want.
