It turned out ok. I managed to blabber a little bit. Val Kilmer was there but he was behind a curtain the whole time and every time he left it I missed him because he was wearing a hoodie. Turns out, Claudia told me, he's got throat cancer that makes his face puff up a bit and he doesn't want that image to get out. Makes sense.
The world is crazy too. They put out more games than anyone can play in a lifetime. I'm constantly distracted from one game to play another. I still haven't finished Odin Sphere and now I have Neir Automata on rental, so I'll have to play that first. Will I ever finish it?
Midway Arcade Origins for Xbox 360 can be played on Xbox One. I'm going to do that tomorrow. PS4 has some arcade games in their shop I should take a look at tomorrow too. I wish I had a Switch if for nothing else those arcade games.
Never played Simpsons Road Rage that I can remember but I did hear it was basically Crazy Taxi in the SImpson's universe, which sound like a great idea. I should pick that up next time I have a chance.
Neat. Mark met Bob Camp on saturday and he went off about John K. I was afraid to say anything about John K but he volunteered his own rant about him. It's terrible that Ren & Stimpy have to be associated with that controversy. Mark and I use Ren & Stimpy quotes all the time while gaming to this day.
Strike Force looks cool. Makes me want to play the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games again.
I struggle with scheduling work and play. I rather think of it all as play though. I find I learn things better when I'm thinking creatively. I try and turn all my work stuff into some kind of creative production. Not everyone appreciates that though. I don't understand serious people. They are some strange fish to me. But maybe I'm just sick. I can't tell.
It's going to be nerve wracking for me. I'll have to meet Mark's celebrity friends I've never talked to before. Usually I just observe from a safe distance, ha ha. I'm hoping there are video games there. I didn't realize it was a comic con. I thought it was the Retro Con Mark and I went to last year.
Villain is the protag. Interesting. Somehow it seems to fit the times.
I'm trying to avoid Deadpool trailers. I like to know as little about it as possible. I like to be surprised.
Another game inside DK 64. I'll have to find it since I bought DK64 a few months ago.
Sinistar would be a cool movie. A strange spaceship that eats other spaceships. Weird. I like.
I should see if my local arcade has a Crazy Taxi machine. I played arcade mode on the XBO version but it would be interesting on a cabinet. I wonder if the controls for boosting your speed work better there?
I keep meaning to get back to Agents of Mayhem but I am totally sidetracked right now trying to rise up the achievement leaderboards. I want to collaborate with someone on the those contracts in Agents. I think you just combine each other's stats for the time the contract is active. There's no actual direct co-op gameplay. Still, I want to do it.
