Skylanders Frenzy: Day Three


Posted on 12/17/2015 at 11:14 AM | Filed Under Blogs

That's odd about the list of figures. Are there any other lists that fans put together? I'm glad you're finding the ones you need because it always bugs me with games like this when you get to a certain section and realize you need a specific character to unlock something you need. *shakes fist at Disney Infinity

Yeah I use the Facebook App, and when you get a message it shows that you have a message on the app, but when you click on the text icon, it sends you to the Facebook App which is stupid. It worked fine in the original app, but the folks at Facebook felt I needed a separate app. Its like how Facebook used to have a photo app to "help" you take pictures to post on Facebook. 

Funny thing about Cable, when I didn't have it I'd complain about not having any choices for television, and I've had FiOS for a couple of years, I stick to maybe 10 channels. I haven't watch much of the Bulls or Clippers this season (I hate the new Clippers uniforms), I'll get into it once football season is done, and then I'll shift to Basketball and Hockey

Yeah it doesn't get cold enough here to get snow, even though I'm literally a half hour away from the stuff. At some point I'll make the trip to check out the hype.

I'm ok with a game if its shallow, as long as I find it fun, I'm good. Yeah it sounds like in Madden you need to tinker with the sliders. Slow down the CPU rush a bit until you get used to the speed and then slowly raise it, or just keep it at that setting. 

Thanks, and the streak continues of six straight bowl games. If our basketball team can continue to make it to the dance, and the baseball team making the post season, the longest streak of having all three go to the post season lives on for another year. The NCAA has too much politics within it between the Power 5 conferences and the rest of the FBS conferences. It'll be interesting to see how everything plays out in the coming years when conferences start adding teams to position themselves for better TV Deals.

GTA always seems to have solid universes for each series. I really should finish that game on PS4, so I can use that space for another game on the hard drive. 

The iPhone 6s has a really good camera but the depth-of-field goes to the swanky lenses I bought a couple of weeks ago. I wish I had a little more control but overall I do like how well they work.

Thanks man, I appreciate the kind words. That picture was one of my favorites when I was taking random shots of the table centerpiece.

Can't complain for $2 bucks right? I should check out my store to see what other 360 goodies are starting to hit bargain prices. 

2014: Life Tries to Kill Me

Damn your car was really trying to kill you. What is a day-one CD? Are there special tracks, packaging, numbered? Flea Market finds are awesome. Shame that the local one does not have any vendors that sell music I'm interested in...and I like a lot of different genres.

I haven't played a Civ game in years. I think the last one was the first one on the original Playstation.

Cosmos was hit and miss for me. I don't know why, the Science Channel had a marathon of the old episodes right before the premier of the new one, and I just couldn't get into the new one, despite enjoying the older one. 

Props to you for getting healthy! That's more energy for EDF and Skylander figure hunting! Tongue Out

I'm one of the odd folks who has never seen snow in person. The local tram that goes to the top of the mountain has snow already but the next question is do I want to drive to the tram. We shall see.

One bold section a day sounds good, except for Friday is another Quick Hits with many more bold sections. I should have a bold section within a bold section.

I remember looking through the Batman trophies and that one sticks out as a tough one. I guess you can probably have an easier time if you can find and corner an enemy. Good luck on getting that final trophy. It's odd that NFS's Platinum has a 6% completion, considering you can earn more than half of the trophies by just finishing the game. Forza can be tweaked so it plays almost like an arcade racer. I'm not into the point where the game becomes a pure simulation. I just want to race, win some races, and maybe spin out a car or two. I think the new Crew with the offroad DLC might be $40. Still a little pricey especially with everything in the game is so spread out. 

Knack is worth a try. It's not the deepest game, but for $10-15 bucks you can't go wrong. 

I didn't know The Order had poor reviews. I know its a game that I can't sit back and listen to podcasts while playing, so it will be a weekend game for me. 

If you buy an older sports game, check out Operation Sports for user made roster updates. They also have threads about slider settings, which are a good starting point in customizing the game to what you like. I tweaked the current Madden to play a bit like NCAA but I still need to get used to the faster DLine. I'm getting sacked like crazy in the game.

Tapped Out is free, but there are certain things that cost real money. You can have a fun experience if you just play through the game, collect donuts (the in game premium currency) and take part in the various events.

Dang that is a good way to not try and buy every figure, save some cash, and position yourself on getting al the achievements, good stuff! Also you can't go wrong when you can get double the amount of figures for the same price. Are these figures smaller than "normal" size figures or part of those 3 figure sets?

I added it to my Google Play library. I don't know what happened to my physical copy of the CD (I bought it when it was first released). I think its time to buy another copy on CD

That is such a good bundle especially if you are into the Neo Geo fighting games, especially for at least $10. I won't click on the PS Store icon on the PS4 because I don't want to spend more money on games (which hasn't stopped me when it comes to physical games)...but it is so tempting to check. I'll probably look around on the app when I eat lunch.

I think with your Facebook issue you can have two sites: one for family and friends where you can do/say whatever is on your mind, and another that is more professional and doesn't all the crazy stuff. A couple of local news reporters have this setup and I think its a good way to keep personal and professional life separate. If Pixlbit ever decided to have an instant messaging option I hope it won't be like Facebook where one app sends you to another app instead of having everything in one tidy place. I guess the next best thing would be to Direct Message on Twitter. 

I'm probably going to stay off of Reddit for a week or so because of folks wanting to spoil Star Wars. I think the people I follow on Twitter will be ok, and the worse things I will see on there will probably be how good/bad the film will be. 

Nice, there is going to be a new podcast to add to the rotation. It'll be a nice change of pace to mix in with the sports podcasts I've been listening to.
