So.....

A bunch of stuff.

First victim claimed by Windows 10 - Trails in the Sky. This game starts in double vision and screwed up colours then if you are lucky it will play the opening bit before returning to the messed up double screens again.

I also updated to Win 10 build 10041 which wanted an activation key. After some googling I found the one you need to use. I also updated my Galaxy Note 4 to Lollipop 5.01 and my iPad Mini 3 to iOS 8.3. Long day.

I'm sure there'll be a patch for Trails when Windows 10 releases but as of now completely unplayable.

Shadowrun Returns seems to play fine, so does Lily Looking Through but that's all I've tested so far.

Valiant Wars on iOS is not free. Just the first "episode". On PSN it didn't come in episodes just a single whole game. It looks nice on the iPad Mini 3 though.

I found out that the app store does the same thing for Final Fantasy Dimensions. I liked it when they just called these things demos.

Tomorrow is Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS day and I'll be picking mine up after work.

Been doing anything interesting lately Pixlbitallion.

Indeed, I just finished up Bloodborne a couple minutes ago. Not sure if I'm gonna hit the Chalice Dungeons though.

I suppose we shall see.

Hey, where you bin? Good to hear from you. Hope things are well.

Just been working and gaming, Peter. I need to get my ass back in gear with Pixlbit.

I'm well and the family is well, though I could do with a job that actually provides a solid 40 hours a week.

Ugh, restaurants.

Square is one of the biggest bastards when it comes to "free to play" price gouging shit on mobile devices.

When does 10 come out? Im curious. It seems like Trails in the SKy was not a high tested port even for 8.

04/09/2015 at 06:34 PM

The one thing I'll tell you is that the support for Trails on PC has been great. They respond quickly and seem to care about their customers.

10 should be out this summer.

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna download Xenoblade tonight.

04/09/2015 at 07:38 PM

As long as you have 8 GB free.

04/09/2015 at 07:39 PM

really? goddammit!

04/09/2015 at 07:41 PM

Yep it's the biggest game yet so your puny 4 GB card ain't gonna cut it,

I spent the day playing Jim Fowler to my boss' Marlon Perkins. He was doing a presentation for a conference and our intern was supposed to assist, but she was without transportation so I went instead. Of the four presentations at the conference, I think ours was the best. We got the most people coming up and asking how to go aout getting us to come to their school/library and do a program for them after the presentations were done. But then again, we wowed them with how to make a plaster cast of an animal track, showed them stuffed mounts of a bobcat, bear, and fisher, and showed them a bunch of other cool stuff like a moose antler and a deer antler.

Excellent Tami. Sounds like you really got through to them

04/09/2015 at 08:06 PM

I was just there to make sure Andy had what he needed when he needed it. We had ten minutes to do the whole presentation. It was a group of about 150 people, and I don't speak in front of groups that big. It was a long way to travel (about an hour each way) for such a short amount of time, so I'm glad Andy knocked it out of the ballpark on this one.

I'm watching Birdman after running was cancelled. Watching Insterstellar after. Bout it.

04/10/2015 at 08:32 AM

I'd like to see both of those but I have a problem sitting and watching when I could be doing. Never used to.

04/10/2015 at 12:17 PM

Honestly? Same here. I can't lie, I had my laptop open for pretty much all of Birdman and the latter half of Interstellar. And it sucks because I'm sure I missed some things that would have made me like those movies more. I do fine in a theater, but at home I just can't sit still and only watch for that long, unless I go to sleep during the movie.

I've been busy reviewing quite a bit of games lately, which is weird since April is usually a slow time. Right now I'm playing 3DS games like Story of Seasons and Box Boy so I can review them later.

04/10/2015 at 08:31 AM

I'm keen to see your review of Story of Seasons Cary.

04/10/2015 at 07:18 PM

The review will be up at the end of the month. Who will marry Farmer Man Cary?

04/10/2015 at 07:42 PM

I think Farmer Man Cary is pretty much a polygamist by now. How many times have you been married in games Cary? They should have a TV show about it. :)

04/11/2015 at 07:45 AM

Ha ha! You make me sound horrible. :) There can be more than one Farmer Man Cary, ya know! :)

In Story of Seasons, Farmer Man Cary is leaning towards Iris the novelist. But there are lots of other interesting characters to interact with and marry, like a TV weatherlady, a ranger, etc.

In the last Rune Factory game, Farmer Man Cary married the knight lady because she was tough and strong and you could take her into dungeons to fight monsters and it counted as a 'date.'

In the last Harvest Moon game, Farmer Man Cary married the blacksmith lady but I forget why. I don't remember any other games before that.

I think my favorite was when Mii Cary married Mii Princess Zelda in Tomodatchi Life and they had a baby. I named him Zelda Jr.

I bought Persona Q today. Couldn't resist after learning these mashups with Etrian Odyssey look so good.

Five F'in Stars. I'm on the sixth floor of the final dungeon now but I may have to put it aside now that Xenoblade's back in town.

Shweeet!

Ivery been in hell enjoying a latte with the devil. I'm finally getting some freedom it seems to get on here and what not. I wanna get Xenoblade on 3DS but Mortal Kombat and The Witcher 3 are big buys until summer so I might be waiting till July for it. Unless Dan gets a copy for his birthday, which I'm praying for which is probably why there is a special seat for me in hell.

LOL.
