So, that Acer Aspire laptop I blogged about last time? Screen doesn't come on. I've got to get this repaired (and hope that it doesn't cost too much) so until then, I'm using my trusty, won't-die Samsung Chromebook that I got back in 2017.
I just finished the last issue of this Witcher comic book story arc. I wasn't all that thrilled with it at first, but its ending changed my mind.
Alright I have around 30 minutes to write, edit pictures, and upload before I have to go pick up a rental car, so let’s see how well I do. Good morning Pixlpeeps! It’s a warm day here in Sunny Southern California and I’ve been MIA for the week but that’s because I’ve been tinkering with Madden as well as searching for a particular toy. Let’s start with Madden
'02 was fair for me. Nothing special happened for me that year, just more pizza delivery and jam sessions, two great tastes that taste great together.
Well, I finished Shenmue after playing it for pretty much the whole day yesterday, and ... I have very mixed feelings. Very mixed feelings. Most of them regard not being able to get the Gacha Gacha III achievement with my completed game save file. What the hell?! Warn me! I was almost to 50 capsule toys, now I'll have to spend another who knows how many hours and in-game yen on doing this over and over:
I just got ME: Andromeda in the mail from GameFly, and am trying to think how I want to divide time bewteen it and Horizon: Zero Dawn. Not sure how Gamefly's system works, but I had Andromeda as my #1 in Q and it's been highly available for at least a month or so, and it took four or five other games being sent and returned to get here. They weren't all my #2 picks either. And in some cases, that doesn't seem to have been due to low availability of my higher picks. Odd.
We’re two men down this time, but luckily we have a very special guest in the form of one Mike Fallek. He is the host of 30 Podcasts I’m Not Doing, along with a bunch of other projects, and he’s a super funny and passionate dude. So even though it’s only a two-man show, Julian and Mike end up talking for a very long time about a lot of interesting things. Let’s get to it!
Welcome to what is easily the craziest episode of Nerds Without Pants of ALL TIME. That’s because we have Tyler and Bob from the TnB Podcast on this week, and Patrick is running the Stage Select segment. Seriously, you don’t stand a chance against this episode. Just surrender now. All your attention is belong to us.
So Uncharted 4 came out today. I can't afford it since I have like 12 bucks in my bank account until next week (yay car registration) so I'll have to wait a bit.
Pixlpeeps, what is up? Friday is here and this is going to be a two-part blog. Let me explain. I’m currently writing this blog in the morning getting most of my thoughts typed before I head out to pick up my sneakers from the UPS facility, and continuing this entry once I get home. Ok so its two-part for me, one long blog for you folks. So the weekend; Are you excited? I think I am going out of town again this weekend but I don’t know if its going to be camera worthy or just snapping pictures with the phone. We shall see. I need to use the Mii’s I collected last week so I have free space for more Mii’s. Seriously why do we only get 10? I think we should collect as many Mii’s as possible. Anyways let’s get this Quick Hits started!
Welcome, welcome, to the 75th episode of Nerds Without Pants! It's a monumental occasion, as we are also celebrating our third year anniversary. We celebrate in bombastic fashion, with an epic episode full of surprises and hilarity. If you can make it to the end of this three and a half hour monster we love you.
Swag can come in many palette pleasing forms. This one is music flavored. Enjoy.
Good morning, Pixlbit Nation! How is everyone on this fine day? We're on day two of howling winds and cold temps, but I don't care. My great-nephew Gabriel was born this morning at 6:58, and I can't wait to meet the little guy! I'm hoping to make the trip down this weekend. There will be much spoiling of this child on my part, I have a feeling.
God, I haven't done one of these in a while. However, since I've had an influx of great music recently, I thought I'd share some highlights. That and I wanted a break from playing and reviewing Dark Souls 2. So enjoy!
....well I left 1up in May...came here in May...then disappeared again...oops I did it again...I didn't mean to do it though..I really didn't..I just rediscovered this page thanks to 1up and I was like what's Pixlbit..then BOOM..I'm here again. Logged in and saw I had over 300 message..mind blown. I did just put my mind back together though.
It certainly has been awhile! I am not going to be posting a huge speel right now but there has been a lot to update about game wise and other random stuff, so I am trying to condence it.
So here it is again. Another week of random ads from the pages of bargain bin comic books. These come from several Marvel TeamUp issues all written by the now famous Robert Kirkman. Remember him accepting the award for The Walking Dead game with the Telltale Games guys at the Spike TV Video Game Awards Show? Kirkman is a class act he is. He's also a great writer and even though I have little interest in a Marvel TeamUp comic series (unless it has Doctor Strange), I found these really fun. As a bonus I got six video game ads from 2006. So, by the hoary hosts of Hoggoth, here they are.
Last week we looked at the first disc of OCRemix's tribute album to Final Fantasy VI, Balance and Ruin. This week we'll look at the second disc. There's some great stuff on here, so strap your ears on and let's go!
Cover songs can be awesome, or they can be terrible pieces of shit, depending on the band covering the song. What I think makes a truly great cover is a band that takes a song and makes it their own, while still capturing the essence of the original. With that in mind, here are some awesome cover songs!
Hello Pixlbit! Summer is here and it is hitting hard! A couple of days ago it hit 122 degrees in my little piece of SoCal, which means Mr. AC is my best friend, but anyways for this week I’ve decided to share with you, the good readers, my other hobby: my music library. I decided to split this up in parts because I want to talk a little about certain albums (nothing crazy) and it will take a while so I decided to start on my CD Library.
