I saw the new Star Wars movie with my family today.  Here is my take on the new Star Wars. Spoiler free, of course. The movie was fun with lots of action. Some parts were hokey, but that's what Star Wars has always been. I liked that they put a bit of humor in places, too. It's a good thing I didn't see this movie as a kid, because all the new spaceships and critters would've made cool toys that I would've wanted like when I was little. And many of the scenes in the movie would make for a good LEGO Star Wars game, which I'm sure they're working on right now.  Also, Kyro Ren ate his spinach.

You know, there are a lot of Mario Christmas ornaments, and Hallmark even has a Minecraft ornament this year.  But you don't see too many Pac-Man ornaments for some reason.  Only one I can think of was a few years ago, Hallmark made a ornament that looked like the Pac-Man arcade cabinet, and it had sound effects, too.  The next year they followed it up with Galaga.  I don't know why they didn't do more, they could do a whole series of them!  Also don't know why they wouldn't make more Pac-Man ornaments in the first place.  They'd be easy to do!

YOUR pretend Christmas present is an iPad so you can play Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp with me!  You should play that game if you have a mobile device that can run it.  I'm sure you'd want to play a game that's about what you do at your ranger job in real life, huh? :)

Thanks for reading my reviews!

Back before YouTube, my friends and I landed a bootleg videotape recording of the Star Wars Christmas Special, back when it was just a talked about rumor.  We couldn't make it all the way through it, it was so bad!  I think our favorite part was the old commercials also recorded on the tape.

Yeah the Incredibles world kind of reminded me of a GTA city you could tromp around in, and save the day and stuff.  No figure of the baby, huh?  Are you ready for the Incredibles sequel that's coming out next summer?

I'll have my Game of the Year Awards blog up later on in January.

LEGO City: Undercover is one of the better LEGO games out there.

What other video games could you play in 1978 besides pinball?

You know what else first came out in 1978?  The Garfield comic strip!

I have the Sully figure since it came with the original game I reviewed.  Monsters University is one of my least favorite Pixar films, though.

I'll have to download it in a minute.  Although I already played the game at a private meeting with Square-Enix at PAX West.  I played it and Secret of Mana and didn't want to stop playing when they wanted me to! :)

If they ditched the free-to-play stuff, I think the new Puzzle Fighter game would be great on consoles.

Supposedly, Capcom is going to do another Mega Man X collection next year, too.

Not everything on mobile is free-to-play.  Good examples are Super Mario Run, Arkanoid vs. Space Invaders, and Bust-A-Move Journey.  But even with free-to-play games, there's a right way to do it and a wrong way.  Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp is the right way to do it.  Puzzle Fighter is the wrong way.  I wish the new Puzzle Fighter was a console game instead, now that I've played it on mobile.
