 So I won a haunted mansion...

I used to post this at 1up every year but not that many people here know my Halloween Tradition. I meant to post this yesterday but I was too into the game I play every year. This is the game in question:

                           

I play Luigi's Mansion every year since 2003 as a Halloween tradtion and I try to see if I can beat it in one night. I do beat it in one night, usually in less than 2-3 hours since I know where everything is and memorized the whole game. I also know how to suck up painting ghosts without breaking the vaccum stream so it reduces the time.

It took me a bit more time to beat it this year since my Gamecube controller seems like it's on it's last legs, I had to wrestle a bit with it to get it to work. I would use the R button to suck up the ghost, but it would continue to do so after I had stopped pressing the button for some reason, the same goes for the L button. It was a bit of a pain because you have to stun the ghosts before you can capture them. I hope this doesn't interfere with my yearly playthrough of Twilight Princess that I do every year since that one is coming up this month. I may play the Wii version instead.

And like I do also every year on Luigi's Mansion, I try to beat my previous score and it seems like I did, or the money count doesn't go any higher than 120,100,000G, I'll have a photo of my previous score next to this years on a later blog. I also found this interesting tidbit about Luigi's Mansion that I found strange yet funny:

           

If they call that scary, imagine the original version they had planned. I would have loved to play the original version to see how it was.

Boolicious Treats:

I remember I said that I wouldn't update my PS3 to the latest firmware because the fear of it bricking. I took that chance and updated it, so far no problems. It would have been scary if it bricked. I did update and now I'm back on PSN after a month of being absent. I did it so I can enjoy my new game that after trying to resist Cary managed to convince me of trying. I'm having a blast and been a while since I got a new PS3 game since Injustice this year.

Being away from the internet was actually doing me a favor because that means I got to play Pokemon Y alot. I love it, if I had a GOTY list, Pokemon X and Y  would be it. If it isn't GOTY then something is truly wrong in this world. Infact, the only time I put the game down is when my 3DS needs to recharge, and everytime I'm not playing Pokemon Y is time wasted.

So today Nov 1 is Dia de los Muertos or Day of the Dead. It's a day when in Mexico and some other countries honor the dead and celebrate and remember those that are no longer with us. I think it's something like that. It's also a reason I didn't blog yesterday, since it's sort of Halloween related anyway.

So what have you been up to? Did you have an awesome Halloween? Thanks for reading and later.
