Didn't actually game at all myself, but I watched my neice and nephew do so.

Good morning Pixlpeeps and it is a chilly (43 degrees) here in sunny Southern California. I hope you good people had a wonderful weekend and are ready for the big Christmas week. I'm excited for Christmas and I already bought my gift for the gift exchange game. It's something that I like and even though the new rule of no gift cards (BOOOOOO) I'm ready and hopefully I can swipe something good. Anyways let's get started with the stuff I played.

There is what nine days left until Christmas, and sixteen days until I have to stop listening to my Christmas music. I have to say I would have listened to a lot more if not for A Very Kacey Christmas CD. That album is easily 90% of my holiday music. Good morning Pixlpeeps how are you? It is a very cloudy day here in my piece of Southern California because last night we had rain! In fact most of California had rain. On Twitter I saw that there is a hashtag “LARain” which means everyone is driving like it is the apocalypse. I wish there was more rain because I like using my beat up Nike boots in bad weather. Anyways let's get started with Quick Hits!

Good morning Pixlpeeps. The weather here in sunny Southern California has been odd. Last week it was cool, and now its going to be in the 70s today and because of all this, I'm starting to fight a cold. Yeah it sucks but what can you do? Before all of this, I did continue to play some games and I thought I'd share what I played up until last night.

Been awhile since I posted here but I figured I would share this little story from today. 

I just spent probably an hour trying to figure out why the latest Script Hook was crashing my Grand Theft Auto V. I followed everything people were writing and still the same problem. Finally it hit me (of course the huge green box in Open IV helped) that I should replace one file with the new one and boom everything works! I am a happy camper again and I can continue the solo story mode of what’s going on in Los Santos. Good morning Pixlpeeps, that is what I was doing this morning during the start of my three day weekend. After this I will probably go back and continue where I left off earlier this week. So a couple of things were brought to my attention earlier this week when checking my email:

I missed Sony's E3 press conference livestream due to work, but was able to catch the highlights.  Looks like they have a pretty great lineup:

Good morning Pixlpeeps! So the past couple of days here in sunny Southern California it has been toasty, with the temperature hitting low 90s, and last night it dropped because we are getting a lot of wind and the local news folks said today it will be in the 70s with a really good chance of rain. Oh you crazy weather. So how are you good folks? Anything big going on? Are you all caught up in the Overwatch Beta that folks on Facebook have been talking about? I downloaded it yesterday after having to download the Battle net application. Why do I need so many apps just to run games? Coming in as a console gamer I figured everything ran through Steam but it is just like consoles in the PCMR where there is Steam, GOG, Origin, and Battle net. There is probably others that I haven’t run into yet.

This year with the release of Star Wars Battlefront it is all to apparent that games THIS year are having troubles.

Well, a friend of mine let me borrrow the new Battlefront for a few days. I will load it here shortly and check it out for about 30 minutes before I pop off for my afternoon class. I will let you know what I think on the next post.

Greetings and salutations Pixlbit! I hope all of you have had a great week so far. I just started my third Marketing class this week and I just finished my assignment so now I have time to post on here. Recently I got some games to try out but might end up keeping some.

Today, it was yet more Skylanders purchases and long hours of blasting bugs and robots in EDF: Insect Armageddon. I can't seem to wrap this game up. It just keeps me there for yet more attempts to beat it on the harder difficulties. 

Yes, I'm finally playing the Gothic Horror Lovecraftian excellence that is Bloodborne!
Coming from a Souls series fan, it might seem odd that I waited so long, but I didn't own a PS4 until recently and I was also waiting for DLC which seemed appear just around the corner.

I've only had one real good weekend with game and barely made much progress, but I've been picking away at it all week, and it is defintely pulling me in and making it hard to put down. I don't have a final verdict for the game yet, but it's definitly a pretty game. There are some annoyances like the consumables farming in particluar, but I've managed to make progress regardless.

I've been playing Battlefront inbetween to break up the stressfullnes Souls games tends to put on me when I play them, so it's all good. Yes, I actually enjoye Battlefront despite what the internet says about EA's price gouging practices, but I don't play it in marathon sessions and just pick up short matches here and there, plus the game looks and sounds divine.

I'm also enjoying FREEDOM WARS, which is a weird as Japanese game that I can't really explaing in a sentence because I'm stupid. It's a squad based action game that mixes melee and gun combat where you take on missions to defeat giant ass monster enemies like in Monster Hunter. You also have this wierd bungie cord harpoon attached to your hand so you can grapple on to a giant boss and go to town on it. If you've seen Attack on Titan, then you pretty much get the idea. It's unique and I've never played anything like it. It's also free on PS+ this month as well as Gauntlet and Kings Quest.

And the Nerds Without Pants make their triumphant return! After four long months, the Pantsless Ones are back together. Come join us as Julian talks about why the show went on hiatus, Patrick's enlightening trip to Ireland, Until Dawn, Tomb Raider, Fallout 4, Star Wars Battlefront, and more!

Good morning Pixlpeeps. I just want to say I almost bought the Kre-O GI Joe Terror Drome

I really did. I was wishing for an HD style approach to the original games, which were great for solo play and had so many cool maps from the films, and although the game looks great, it plays like a MP shooter, where I was constantly being killed, and then respawning. I played it a lot and got better, but was mostly annoyed half the time. I decided I would skip the game on release, but I might give in and just buy it and suck it up and get better at it. The coin vehicle pickup was stupid. I hope to see more clone war prequel era maps too. 

So Pixl Peeps I don’t know why but the past couple of weeks I’ve been putting off the Monday entries for Tuesday entries. Why? No idea, I think it feels more comfortable to post on Tuesday’s because I have an extra day to maybe play some games, collect my thoughts, you know the usual. Over the weekend I have to say for the second weekend in a row I really wasn’t in the gaming mood, which is odd considering that was the time to play the Battlefront Beta, continue on Lego Dimensions, and any other games I have in Mount Backlog. When I have been playing stuff its usually been on the Asus Memo Pad, because it’s the new toy. I also mixed in some iPad gaming but a good 80% of my free time has been around the Memo Pad.

Good morning Pixlpeeps! So how many of you good people downloaded the Star Wars Battlefront Beta yesterday?
