So a couple of weeks ago I got a Starbucks gift card and I started using it. That lead to my other blog about the “fancy” Egg McMuffin, and a drink that I started to really like, their Cascara Foam Cold Brew. It’s nothing really special, just an ice coffee with some foam, but it is served in a sippy cup and you’re supposed to get some of the foam with the coffee in each sip. I’m one of those weirdos that likes to drink coffee without sugar or cream, but I dig this. Actually I think I just like ice coffee. Anyways after I finish here I’m seriously debating on heading out to grab one…and maybe a “fancy” Egg McMuffin.

After playing the first chapter of God of War, it's going fine. The gameplay feels super standard, but it's ... ok. Just got done fighting The Stranger. I also do not have the same problems Julian does with the small boy. Sounds like a pretty good child voice actor to me so far. Then again, maybe he repeats himself more later on. We'll see. 

I finished up my week with some Dreamcast fishing games and a few short games I got off Game Pass. Here's a pic of my Dreamcast fishing games and the controller.

Well I’m excited because things like this do not happen often. I was leaving for work this morning and I saw this by the road in a box that said PS2 and Rock Band , Enjoy!

I'm still playing the Valkyria Chronicles demo. It's pretty big. I played the first mission and then a two part second mission. I'm on chapter two now, and it opens up with you at a base where you can now equip your soldiers, but also - like XCOM - you put research and development into new weapons and tank parts. Each soldier has three weapon slots and a armor slot. This is a lot different from the original game, where I don't think you could customize any of that stuff. That should be pretty fun. 

Out now in the Switch NA eShop. That is all.

I was in the mood for small games today so played a few of them.

Here's a picture of my Dreamcast. I plugged it in to go through some games I might want to trade. Then I got back to business on XBO.

Why is the music in the Persona games extremely good, I just finished off Persona 4 Golden a while go and P5 earlier this year.

I have to admit that I really haven’t been playing actual console/PC games other than NCAA Football in close to two weeks. I’ve been caught up in playing my little mobile games, helping the various teams/alliances I am in trying to unlock goodies or just trying to get whatever bonuses that are available in a game that really has no end. There’s something about these types of games that draw me in. Maybe it’s because they’re free…-ish. Maybe it’s working with a group, Maybe it’s not having to worry about getting my monies worth out of the game, heck maybe it’s the fact that they are fun and for a couple of minutes for each play I don’t have to worry about it. I mean it’s easy to jump into, a couple of taps on the phone or laptop and I am playing my game. Afterwards I go back to either reading, or listening to music on the same device. Easy peasy.
