I might have gotten confused, frustrated and dead in many of them, but I enjoyed them all. Who says you got to finish stuff? It's the journey not the destination, I say.
This is my list in coordination with the all-time best OG Xbox games on Metacritic. I'm playing games in order of MC rating instead of release date this year.
A list of games I'd like to revisit in order of Metacritic score for the years 2004-2006 with some notes.
...and I'm thinking about the first decade of the 2000s, 2000-2009. Here's a list of games I want to focus on this month when I'm not chasing rewards points or some new release.
I couldn't resist a quick chat on my comics reading and console-setup. Here goes.
This was the demo disc for the March 2002 issue of The Official Xbox Magazine. It has demos, trailers, a behind-the-scenes video, tv ads, and gameplay highlights. I find it a cool trip down memory lane to watch these things again. Here are some more details..
I played a hefty amount today with some good results. Then I got resupplied with OG Xbox games from my friend and from a few online orders which appeared today.
I was thinking about blog ideas and it got me looking at my collection. I sorted through my demo discs which I've kept all these years, and it led me on a quest to revisit the Original Xbox. It will be 20 years in November since its release. That will make it like a classic car. I'm going to start with the demo discs of a particular year (the ones I have) and then play a game or two. I've even acquired a few new ones I haven't played before. Should be fun for my weekday gaming. So here's a demo disc I have from around the launch day, I believe, November 2001.
Once again there are too many games coming in and very few getting finished.
I got so long-winded last time when talking about the games in my last blog on the mini PlayStation Classic that I decided to split it into two blogs. So if you haven’t read that one yet, I encourage you to please do so. Anyway, here’s the second batch of games on the PlayStation Classic. I don’t have as much to say about most of these games, so hopefully this will go by a little faster.
Hey guys, so I had to quit my job due to health concerns. I'm using this time to study coding and thought, you know what, why not make a game!
I bought Wario Land: Shake It! today and downloaded two free Games with Gold titles: Livelock and Sega Vintage Collection: Monster World. I set up my PS3. And I started to catch up on the achievements leaderboard by playing a lot of short games downloaded from Game Pass.
Yeah, apparently that was in February of 2015. I for some reason had it in my mind I bought my PS4 in 2014, which would have been cool matching those 4s up, but oh well.
Welcome back to Nerds Without Pants! It’s been almost a full month since the Pantsless Ones got together to record, and after the heavy topic of episode 65 they decide to keep things light. So that means two hours of meandering talk about video games, comics, blasphemy, and indie pro wrestling, among other things. Enjoy!
I'm later than usual with this blog. I couldn't find a decent camera to take pictures. Oh well, it's better late than never. I did good in 2014. I didn't buy a lot of games. Got too many digital games though. There were some decent sales this year.
Finally we get to the meat of the year, the games that came out in 2014 that I actually played.
