A Quick Update On What I've Been Up To

I’ve been slacking here but I’ve been busy and I haven’t had much time to collect my thoughts and put them to paper…or to be honest on Microsoft Word. Anyways I have a couple of minutes so why not give an update on what I’ve been playing.

NBA 2K16: Michael Jordan Edition – Steam: I’ve been having problems with this game in that the custom stuff (team logos, jerseys) have disappeared. I’ve uninstalled the game and then reinstalled the game and it still looks like there’s none of that fun stuff. I think maybe 2K is shut down this part because the new game is coming out soon, or maybe this game isn’t playing nice with Windows. No idea. I might start a new Franchise with just a regular team and just try to play through that but if the new game is I think a couple of months away maybe I should wait for that, before starting any time consuming franchise.

Speaking of NBA 2K, I have 2K15 still on my PS4 hard drive and I really should uninstall that game and install a game I haven’t played much. Heck I really should boot my PS4 and see what have I missed. I haven’t started it in I think a month.

Batman Origins – Steam:

 

I stopped playing this game this week, just to mix in some new stuff but most likely I’d like to get back to it soon so I can finish the game and move on to Arkham Knight and see how that plays on the PC. Originally I thought I was close to finishing the game but it turns out that was the midpoint, and I have more to do. I’m not complaining.

Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit – Steam:

 

I think I bought this game on Sunday with Lego Worlds (Lego’s version of Minecraft) and I haven’t started Lego World’s because I’ve found a new racing game. Actually it’s not new, it’s a six year old game that originally I thought I didn’t have in the library, until after playing the first couple of races I remembered I own a copy on PS3 (oops) Anyways I’m sucked into the world of arcade racing NFS style. There was a bundle on Steam last weekend where you get I think four games and since I owned two of the four, the other games came out to eleven bucks. I already own the other two games so I passed unless they become really cheap than I might jump on them again.

Disney Emoji Blitz – iOS:

 

I’ve been playing this non-stop since the Ursula game was released and with I think five days left, I am in good shape to completing it. Basically you play through a regular game where you battle Ursula and you unlock Neptune’s Trident. Each level has a set amount of tridents it takes to knock off Ursula and once you complete that level you win a prize. There are three purple boxes on the board and each time you complete those levels you unlock an Ursula emoji. If you get one already in your collection it just becomes stronger. I’m really playing for that, than actual completing the game because she’s one of the Gold Box characters that cost 30,000 coins instead of the regular silver box less powerful characters at 15,000.

Other random game stuff:

I found my 3DS XL. It was hiding in a cabinet and it has a full charge. I also bought some match three games with the remaining $2 in credit on my account. I might go buy a point card today to buy Outrun and maybe Streets of Rage 2.

Today I'm going to order a replacement cable for my Vita. Apparently GameStop, being the big box game store doesn't carry them so Amazon is going to earn some business today.

My Memo Pad has taken two days to update everything including some apps I can't uninstall (thanks for the bloatware Asus) but I have been trying out some random Android games. I'll share the ones I actually like.

 

Alright people I am off. I have to get some work done, run some errands, and hopefully later on today I can catch up, read the blogs I’ve missed and I see a random spammer got loose on the board again. Anyways have a good week!

That’s all for now, more later!

You can't go wrong, right now they're cheap and lots of fun.

I have all of them now except for Arkham Knight. I've even played about 50% of Arkham Asylum. I'm following my backlog list in order of play time, so I hope they are not too deep in the list.

damn that Ursula!

You know, I've been thinking about buying (eventually) a Surface Pro 3 or 4. The idea of having Windows on a portable little tablet really interests me now. I don't know if I'll do it or not, but I am entertaining the idea.

They are solid tablets. My uncle has the top of the line model and it is basically a laptop in a tablet's body. My one gripe is that they are a little pricey but for the convience they rock.
