I remember whatever that title was being a fun, R-rated time. 

12 BaD days remain.

Recently I got The King of Fighters XIV for PS4.  A lot of times when I get a fighting game, I like to talk about the characters in it.  But there are SO many characters in this one that there’s NO WAY I’m going to do that!  So we’ll just look at my favorites, OK?  And none of these are in any particular order.

So I'm fairly sure I didn't play anything IN this year, but I've cheated a bit to include the games I played at least pretty close to 2011. This was another one of those "transition" years where nothing happened. 

Nintendo is no stranger to making risky decisions that could have resulted in utter failure. After all, they released the Famicom\NES during a time when the consumer market shunned video games. Then there was that time in 2004 when most of us thought they were crazy when they announced the dual screen handheld DS. And many were skeptical when motion controls were introduced on the Wii console. Nonetheless, their decisions proved to be a significant success. Such was the case with the early Metroid series.

So this is the usual morning routine: I wake up an hour before my alarm goes off. I have that extra hour in case I wake up late, which has happened, and I am not rushing to get things done so I can get going with my day. During this hour of just laying in bed, I have the local news playing, and I am on the iPad reading Twitter, checking Facebook, and maybe looking through Slickdeals. Over the past 24 hours I have had to use the “Hide All” feature on a couple of friends and this is why. Over the past year or so I have called people “Political Bandwagoners” because all of a sudden they have become so into politics this is all (most) that they post. Just like sports bandwagon guy, political bandwagon guy is just as annoying, and is only around for the ride until something else comes along.

So today Darksiders 3 got announced. Im really freaking excited and happy that its happening. When THQ closed its doors I pretty much had accepted that D3 wasnt gonna happen. 

First, I don't want anyone knowing how much I make, but I'm quite proud of my budget for March, which I just got done with a 50/30/20 Google Docs Worksheet. Not sure I trust Google with this information, but I am an American. I trust nefarious strangers in exchange for convenience. What are you gonna do? 

Happy Valentine's Day everybody!

Well after a well rested weekend I'm back for more bloggin' Enjoys today's batch of games!

Good morning Pixlpeeps and Happy Friday! So earlier this morning in my little piece of Southern California we had an earthquake that was felt from San Diego to LA, and my little desert town was close to the epicenter so it was a bigger deal than normal. I have this weird knack for waking up right before earthquakes and I woke up looked for my phone to see the time and shaking

Happy Earth Day Pixlpeeps! Friday is back and again I am going to avoid roaming around the surrounding area because its week 2 of Coachella and all the crazy kids are back. I was buying some groceries yesterday and all stacks of alcohol at the grocery store and Target were back and so were the kids whose carts were filled with all those items as well as frozen foods. Instead of going out and searching for new CDs to add to the library this weekend I decided to stay home, play some games, and maybe catch up on some Netflix.

Good morning Pixlpeeps! It is a nice cool and a little damp Southern California, but that isn’t a bad thing for a place that is hurting for more water. I made the most of the weekend by staying under the back porch while it rained for a bit. I took my laptops (the mini one day and the full size the other day) and enjoyed the cool weather, and maybe took a nap. Anyways on Sunday I decided to do this but instead of watching Netflix on the mini laptop, I decided to try and play some games. My plan worked for about an hour before the sun peeked through some clouds and it was tough to see what I was playing. It was fun while it lasted. Anyways here are some games I’ve been playing.

By the time the Super Nintendo was introduced, games that combined multiple genres were nothing new. Games like The Legend of Zelda, Crystalis, and The Guardian Legend were outstanding pioneers of the action/adventure variety. But developer Quintet partnered with Enix to publish ActRaiser in 1991 on the Super NES. Released just 3 months after the new home console, it was one of the earliest post-launch SNES games. Particularly outstanding is that it combines side-scrolling action with building simulation gameplay elements. Usually, building simulations send me running for the hills because I'm terrible at them. But after spending a little time with the game, I was able to put my fears aside.
