To be honest, I started Xbox 360 sometime in May. So it took around four months to go through everything in my physical and digital collection and play a few new ones too. Here's the list of stuff I ended with. Note that I've been playing in order of Metacritic rating, and so these are the lowest rated games I have (doesn't mean they're are actually that bad though).
Here's my "waiting for a car repair" blog about the 2011 games that I played relatively close to release date in order of Metacritic rating for that year. Also, I'm just noting the system I played the game on, not all available systems.
Hey guys, I know PixlBit 3.0 has been something I've talked about for a very long time. It's been something I've made plans for, thought about for countless hours, but never could find the time or energy to really tackle the project. But lately, that's changed - I jumped in full force and I've been making some great progress. To help keep me accountable I figured it'd be great to share some screenshots with you guys and answer questions on stuff you may be curious about.
The 3DS was released this year. Minecraft came out of beta. The highest rated games were Batman: Arkham City, Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, and Portal 2. Here's a list of what I put the most time into that year followed by stuff I played later and then a wish list.
Duke Nukem 3D: Played three episodes and got tired of it. Tried to play Duke Nukem Forever but found out it’s not backwards compatible on XBO. I could have sworn it was. It’s just as well, I don’t really want to play it again. Thus ends my retro revisits. Onto games of relevancy.
Alright I guess I should start on my Quick Hits blog considering I stopped playing games. So how are you good people? I got sidetracked this morning when I was preparing for this entry and then I got caught up in creating another team in NBA 2K16, playing a half with them and realizing that I need to tone down the color of the road uniform (I was calling the color neon aqua) when it should have been a light blue. After that fun I had some lunch and then took a nap because after all this is the start of my weekend but now it’s time to get things done because I want to put my CDs in some kind of order in their genre books (I’ve been putting this off for a bit). Anyways let’s get started with Quick Hits!
I've never used these guys before but I signed up because it was named after Casey. :D
I played Tomb Raider a couple of days ago, and even with my laptop having only the minimum 512MB graphics card requirement, it still looks amazing. I've not quite made it to the radio tower yet, but I do have a better grasp on the game than I did before.
God Fucking Dammit, I missed a day. To make up for it, here are four entries instead of the usual two.
So I got a PS4 and have been playing what little free time I have this weekend playing the hell out of it. Right now, I'm really enjoying the new hardware. The interface is a huge leap above the PS3's, giving the speed when transferring from games to menus that I get from my 360. It feels really nice to pause the game, go to the actual main menu, and go back right to where I was in the game.
Lately this has been the only day I can play games with a friend of mine. We play from 3pm to 10pm, not really enough time to make a whole lot of progress in a full console game, but ok for smaller games like those on XBL.
Hey guys, so I'm back to the world of the sober, and I don't like that. So I'm escaping soberland to videogame land. And it is glorious. So what have I been playing?
So I guess EA has made another wonderful splash in the world of the Gaming Industry again.
This is a blog series I wrote last year. I’m bringing it to PixlBit in preparation for the next episode of PixlTalk, wherein the Tri-Force crew talks about the future of video games.
You may or may not be aware, but before the middle of december, I did live playbits, which is kind of like live "Let's Play," just about once a week here on PixlBIt, often on Monday nights. From the middle of the month of December, I've been busy and away from home, so I haven't been able to complete my Super Mario Bros. 3 playbit quite yet.
