In Microsoft Haven there be dragons, and it's like the village in How To Train Your Dragon. Tech and dragons. Mecha dragons? I'm liking this idea.

Yes, I'm alive. Busy and burned out at work and it's not even June. More about that at the end. I've been gaming more these days, so I actually have something to blog about for a change. And yes, true to form, they are all "late to the party" games that I'm sure everyone else played ages ago.

It's so REAL!

After conquering 2018 with the hyper-realistic open-world cowboy simulator, Red Dead Redemption 2, Rockstar has certainly not been resting on its laurels. As many of you now know, the highly anticipated hyper-realistic open-world crime simulator, Grand Theft Auto 6, has been announced. Thanks to the hundreds of hits my writing for PixlBit has amassed over the past nine years and the runaway popularity of my podcast, Nerds Without Pants (tens of satisfied listeners!) I was given an exclusive look at this upcoming juggernaut. Don’t worry, I got hands-on with this sure to be life-altering video game months before the Covid-19 epidemic. Now that my embargo has been lifted, the story can be told at last!

A little backstory before I dive into today’s theme: a couple of weeks ago I was on hold with my insurance company. Usually I’m ok with this but I kept getting the run around, nobody knew what the hell was going on, and finally I talked to a nice lady who helped figure out what the solution to my issue was which opened another box of issues. Long story short, I’m no longer with them, and the proof I needed to help resolve some new issues was lost. After this annoying time (I went with a different insurance company while on hold with these people) I decided that I was going to finally get organized.

Bargain Bin Buys: Rabbids Go Home

Review
Published on September 28, 2016 10:13 AM - 9 minute read

Let me get this out of the way. When Rayman Raving Rabbids was announced for the Nintendo Wii I was excited. In it's initial development Rayman was set for a 3D romp against a crazy mutant Rabbid invasion. What was originally set as a new 3D Rayman platformer became of all things a minigame compilation. This wouldn't be the first teaser for Rayman that Ubisoft failed to deliver on. Remember the initial teaser for Rayman Legends featuring  Rabbid esque amiibo? And that moment when the kid grabbed the Ezio figure to scan it? Nowhere to be found in the final product! But I'm getting off track here. You see the main problem that I have with the Rabbids is that they became popular. And when you get popular you get sequels. And boy there are a ton of Rabbid sequels. There are 4 Rabbid mini game compilations for the Wii, far more than I have time to get into and review, but what happens when one such Rabbid game deviates from the formula? The answer is Rabbids Go Home. A game I bought for $5!

Chris Watches Sony, And Shares Some Thoughts

Good morning Pixlpeeps! Before I head off to get my day started I wanted to give some thoughts about the one presentation I always watch during E3, and that was Sony’s. The only reason why I watch Sony’s is because that’s the only console I actually care about. X-Box and Nintendo consoles I tend to buy a generation later so it really doesn’t matter to me what is the latest and greatest for them because when I buy games for other consoles they are usually older titles. Overall I liked the Sony presentation because it was (borrowing from a Sum 41 album title) All Killer, No Filler. Their presentation started strong and didn’t let up for an hour. If you follow me on Twitter (sorry for live tweeting) I shared my thoughts about the presentation. Overall there was only one game I wanted and that was the new God of War. Everything else showcased were solid but they weren’t “must haves” for me.

Pixlpeeps how are you doing on this fine Christmas week (for you folks who don’t celebrate Christmas, how are you doing on this fine week?) So on Friday I was writing up a Quick Hits blog, and got pulled into some Christmas shopping. I figured I would finish up the latest entry when I got home, but instead put it off until Sunday when I decided to just do another combo blog today. Sound cool? Call it being lazy/I want to talk about some games I’ve been playing/yeah being lazy. Sound good? Good, let’s get started!
