Warning, New Challenger Approaching!

It's friday once again and like last week let's move away from first impressions and cover a staple of Youtube: Gaming channels!

Ya know it's kinda funny reviewing this game. I had Ready 2 Rumble on the PS2 and I loved it. You got to even unlock secret boxers such as the king of pop himself Michael Jackson and Michael Buffer the ever famous in ring announcer who made '' Let's get ready to rumble'' ring out to thousands in attendance and millions watching at home. So without further ado...I present an unholy revolution.

As I mentioned yesterday I took today off and I get to lounge around the house doing a whole lot of nothing except reading, playing games and writing my daily BaD blog.

Pixlbiticans how have you been since we last spoke all of 24 hours ago. In a couple of hours from now I will be dining on authentic Fair food for lunch. Yes crazy items that are either stuck on a stick, deep-fried, and maybe both will be enjoyed. Because of this last night I decided to go back to the Gym before I did my walk. I’d like to blame my return to the gym on being sucked into the Arrow TV Universe where the women are pretty and the men apparently work out 12 hours a day. Oh yeah crazy body shaming (I type this while eating leftover popcorn from last night. Breakfast of Champions.) Currently the arms are hurting and today will be leg day. It is Quick Hits day, Friday the 13^th, and the day before Valentine’s Day so Happy Pre Love/Friday the 13^th Day! Let’s get started with another Quick Hits!

One of the unequivical facts of gaming today is that there are not enough new Mega Man games. Heck, there are no new Mega Man games! So when I came across a game on the App Store that is an obviously love letter to the blue bomber, I really want to love it. Steam Punks wears its inspiration pretty blatantly. Sure, it has a...wait for it...steampunk setting instead of some time in the near-ish future but it's totally Mega Man. You can choose what order to play the levels in, the bosses have funny names, and you get their weapons when you beat them. The main character even jumps the same way as Mega Man, lifting his front leg. You know what I'm talking about 

More riffing on Dragon Magazine #94, February, 1985.  In this month and year Frank Herbert published his last Dune novel, Chapterhouse: Dune. I read the first trilogy of Dune books but I didn’t read all of the second. I lost steam after reading Children of Dune. Chapterhouse: Dune was the sixth book. There have been a lot of games of all types based on the Dune novels. The one I’ve been looking for is Dune: The Battle for Arrakis for the Genesis. It hasn’t been in any collections or been downloadable anywhere. You can only play it on the Genesis. Publisher Virgin Interactive is no more and developer Westwood Studios was bought by EA and then closed. So maybe EA has the rights to Dune: The Battle for Arrakis? Who knows.

Today alot of people are gonna be happy in the next few minutes. The midnight release of Monster Hunter 4, Majora's Mask and the New 3DS is tonight. I'm however waiting till Monday at the latest for my Monster hunter themed New 3DS and zelda game. I'm pretty excited to play both titles and anyone wants to hunt monsters online together just let me know. I'll give you my friend code for it. I think I've decided to not transfer my games from my 2DS. I'm pretty content with them staying on it. I still like my 2DS so I wanna keep it. It works perfectly fine and having a back up in emergency cases isn't a bad idea.
