I ripped through a lot of stuff this week, being impatient to get through it all, the slightest annoyance sending me to the next game in my collection. But, I had a lot of good experiences anyway. I'll break these 360 games into two categories, physical and digital only (or, Xbox Live Arcade as it used to be called).
2020. Gosh. Remember when we looked forward to it, hopefully, being a good year? We had no idea. And while there were big profile delays and disappointments in the game space, there were still a ton of fun games to play. First we'll take a look at the games I beat and bought and then we'll move onto the Golden Hippo Awards!
I wasn’t sure at first if I was going to do a ‘best games of the decade’ blog since I wasn’t clear if the decade ends at 2019 or 2020. But then I looked at the last time I wrote a ‘best games of the decade’ blog and it was at the beginning of 2010, and it went from 2000 to 2009, so I figured I’d do one now after all. I provided a link to my last ‘best games of the decade’ blog because I thought it was interesting to read something I wrote ten years ago. So we’re doing it again, although it’s pretty much the games that won my “Game of the Year” award for the past ten years.
In the first part of my 3DS tribute blog, we looked at my favorite downloadable games. Now we’re going to look at my favorite physical cartridge games. Now of course, you could download many of these games, too, but I had them in cartridge form so they’re going here. There’s a lot to cover so let’s get started!
It’s that time again. Time for more links to game reviews I’ve written lately over at GamerDad.com! Please click on as many links as you can and maybe even post a comment or like or two. I’d really appreciate it. OK, let’s begin!
I got a text from my old manager yesterday that said, "check out Exton Square Mall Round 1". I thought it might be some horrible news of a fight or other disaster. Instead it was a new entertainment center called Round 1. They have locations on both coasts. Today, I went there to check it out.
It’s that time of year again! It’s the Cary’s Best Games of 2016 Awards Show blog! Keep in mind that no outside opinions went into the making of this list. It’s just my own picks. And if a game is missing from my list, it either didn’t appeal to me as much, or I just simply haven’t played it yet. Can’t play all the games out there, you know! Plus I do apologize if this list leans toward the Nintendo side. I don’t have an Xbox One, and I just got a PS4 at the end of November, so you’ll just have to deal with it.
It was a really great year. I was able to beat more games this year than last, which was my goal. I finished a total of 27 games! Most of these were retro games, but some of them were also new ones. All of these games are worth beating, btw. Here they are in the order in which I beat them.
May was my best month so far this year for getting things done, though one of these was in the works for quite a while.
Hey Pixlbit. Sorry I've been kinda MIA. I figure everybody's got their hands full keeping up with BaD. I've also been trying to be more productive lately. By more productive I mean being a lazy bastard, watching a ton of Fist of the North Star and random movies on Netflix, and don't forget about playing some damn games.

Hey folks, I’ve got another batch of game reviews I’ve written lately over at GamerDad.com. Please click on the links and read as many as you can and maybe even post a comment or two. I’d appreciate it. Also wanted to let you all know that this coming week, you probably won’t hear much from me here because I’m going to Disney World!
Another E3 has come and gone, so I thought I’d write a blog about my favorite games and news stories from the show. But before we get to that, I have to rant a little bit. I do apologize in advance, but for the second year in a row I was denied a press pass to E3. So I have to gripe about that a second.
Happy New Year everyone! At this time of year I like to write about what games I’m looking forward to playing and reviewing in 2014. Now I know there will still be lots of games announced as the year goes on, but these are what popped into my head at the time.
Despite my love for music, I've never played very many music or rhythm games. Not that I haven't played any, of course. I dabbled in the music portion or Mario Paint. I played Rhythm Heaven on the DS (which I had a shockingly difficult time with lol) as well as Elite Beat Agents (one of the best and most original DS games) and Donkey Konga, but I've missed on plenty of good ones over the years. If I ever manage to catch up, these are the games I'd most want to play.
Thanks to a recent PixlBit contest, I now have an idea for a new blog. Although I did write something similar to this about a year and a half ago. But oh well. Anyway, here are my top ten favorite music and rhythm games!
