DQ VIII on Switch. Now that would be cool. That game needs a big screen. I'm not excited about the 3DS version. 

Yea, but they are so bulky. Plus, Mark and I broke out those systems years ago and gave them a good play. I think I can part with them. Now, when I start thinking about the next generation of systems like NES, I really can't bare to part with that. 

5 laps seems like an incredible endurance race, but it's probably not all that long in terms of minutes. What makes it seem long is you have to focus 100% the whole way. Just one moment of inattention can result in a spin out. I've got these two races that I can't beat because I mess up right at the very end every darn time. 

I realize now that it would've been good for me to stick to the holiday characters. That would be a list of only a couple dozen - nice and easy and no risk to the bank acccount. 

I never have time to finish any of them. I get 10 or 15 hours in and then it's like next year or something. 

Man, those bundles. Lots of gaming there. 

Sequels are usually better in video games. The developers get to fix and improve on the system they created for the first game. By the third game though, they probably are moving into a new engine or thinking about changing it up so much that it becomes a first game again. Gears 3 is an exception to that, though. That series hit it's peak with 3, in my opinion. 

That's what started me on Skylanders, those vehicles. I was just looking at Thrillipede's Buzz Wing and noticed you could push a button and the wings fold out. Neat! I'm going to post those soon with the DK figure in the Life element catagory. 

Portalcharacters.com says there are 350 total. 

I was thinking the same. It'd be neat if the figures actually fit in the vehicles. Those vehicles would be pretty big, or the figures would have to be pretty small. The are the right relative size in the game though. 

Stealth infuriates me. I couldn't finish the second half of that brilliant Batman Arkham Asylum because the stealth parts slowed the gameplay down so much.
