Video game minute.

 Sunday, I got to play some games and I played Call Of Duty Black Ops 3. I finally finished it. So now I have two games down for the 10 games of summer. 

10 games for summer 2016
 Tomb Raider finished 4/3/16.
2 Call Of Duty Black Ops 3 4/24/16.
3 Rise Of The Tomb Raider 
4 Grand Theft Auto 3
5 Lego Jurassic Park 
6 The Last Of Us 
7 Army Of Two The Devils Cartel
8 Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
9 Heavy Rain 
10 Fry Cry Primal ❌ 
11 Grand Theft Auto Stories From Liberty City

 So I'm removing Far Cry Primal and hopefully I'm actually going to complete this list this year. After I finished Black Ops, I popped in Grand Theft Auto 3 and completed a few missions. Damn, I either really suck, or this game has gotten harder. I had to redo so many missions cause I was dying too much. Even Melissa was like damn Ben. I said no shit. It was horrible. It's not like I have never played this game or these missions before. I forgot the controls and everything so these GTAs are going to be tough to complete for the 10 games for summer, but I guess that's the point? I was kinda thinking that I should have popped in Rise Of The Tomb Raider, instead of GTA, but oh well. 

 I have been reading a lot more reviews of the Raspberry Pi 3 and it looks like people are playing PS1 games with no problems on it. That's super cool. I still need to work on my Raspberry Pi. Mine should be able to run all the ROMs I have up until stopping with SNES and Sega. I like to stay updated with Retropie and all the new improved updates all the people put out. So they are up to Retropie 3.7! Damn, that's amazing. So this morning I downloaded it. I still haven't even played around with 3.3. The RPI 3, has Bluetooth built in and wifi built in so no more extra dongles hanging off. I would love to hook up the Wii U Pro controller to it. I just need more time to do all of this stuff.  I would need to get a RPI 3 to play my PS1 and N64 games. I still need to move my ROMs and game saves over from my Nook to my Ouya then maybe I could put one of those games on the summer list. Or I could even play them on my Nook still. Either way, it would be fun. I really have to think about doing that.  It was so cool when I completed The Legend Of Zelda, Minnish Cap and all of that. Well looking back, I actually finished those games before I started the 10 games for summer list. Oh well, I'll work with what I got. 

 Not about video games, but I really want to do a Raspberry Pi media server. I want to get a external hard drive and be able to watch whatever I wanted with it always on and not use a lot a power. So I was thinking that the RPI 3 (side note, I have no clue if RPI is even acceptable as an abbreviation.) because it has more power. Well that's all my ramblings I have for now, till next time.

Weekend review for 4/23 - 24/16.

 Friday afternoon, I had to go get my third shot for work. I was not in the mood for anything so when I got home we had some dinner and Melissa went to bed early because she had her walk to do the next day. I stayed up and watched some shows. After awhile, I was tired and I went to bed. 

 Saturday morning, Melissa got up and went to her walk. Feeing like crap, I slept in a little bit. I woke up and started binging The Magicians I had saved up on the dvr. Melissa ended up doing 4.5 miles instead of 3 because of them not setting up anything to let the walkers know what was what. I told Melissa, I hope someone complains because there should have been marked places on the trail. Melissa got home and we relaxed. I kept watching some shows and Melissa played some games. We had to go over to our friends house to drop off her present then we got our dinner from Ajs and we went home. We watched some more shows then we headed upstairs. We watched some shows and went to bed. 

Sunday, we had our house stuff to do. I got some game time in and then we watched more shows. We made permasian chicken for dinner and it was amazing. After dinner, we watched some shows, headed upstairs and then we watched Fear The Walking Dead. One of the grossest parts was when he had to pull out the body gunk from the filter system! Ha ha, the hand is popping out and blood gunk, damn. Till next time.

Video game minute.

 So over the weekend, I got to play some Rise Of The Tomb Raider and I was only 34%. What the hell, I've been playing forever. I am trying to focus a couple hours each time I play to complete the 10 games for summer. I also played some Far Cry Primal. It did some update and said that my save game might not save correctly and I would have to start over. I am 7% and kicking ass. (Sarcasm doesn't type right.) I really didn't want to start over so I played and it seemed like
It doing okay. Also my Xbox One did this weird thing where it froze, the controller wouldn't connect, I couldn't reconnect it and the screen went blank. What the fuck. I looked it up real quick and it said to restart your Xbox and it should work. Well it did, but what the fuck. 

 So on the 10 games for summer list, I had Far Cry Primal, but after seeing I was only 7%, there's no way I can finish it. So I will be removing it from the list. So the list so far:

10 games for summer 2016
 Tomb Raider finished 4/3/16.
2 Call Of Duty Black Ops 3  
3 Rise Of The Tomb Raider 
4 Grand Theft Auto 3
5 Lego Jurassic Park 
6 The Last Of Us 
7 Army Of Two The Devils Cartel
8 Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
9 Heavy Rain 
10 Fry Cry Primal
11 Grand Theft Auto Stories From Liberty City

 I might come up with more later depending on how finishing a couple games go. So I saw on PSN this morning that they were having a GTA sale again and this time it was 60% off. I checked it out and I'm glad I got my digital games when I did. These were going for $11 plus and $6 plus. I got mine for like $3 a piece. And I think I talked about it before, but I got both my physical copies of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas for the PS3 and Xbox 360. I would buy Vice City, Grand Theft Auto 3, Liberty City Stories and all that on disc if I could. It's weird how people, myself included, want to collect all of this stuff. How does the whole collection of Zelda or GTA do anything for anyone? So that means you have a collection, but then what? Like Melissa and I have talked about how cool it would be to collect our old consoles and just our favorite games for them. Nothing spectacular, but like she likes some NES game I love some of them and SNES too, but where are we going to put all these consoles and all the cartridges? The Raspberry Pi helps a lot with that, but the legality of the ROMs or emulators for like my Ouya, but is it the same? Also it's hard enough to find time to play a game, let alone play one together, but then be like, let me go get this console box and cartridge. That was just something I was thinking about. That's what I got for now, till next time.

Weekend review for 4/16 - 17/16.

 Friday night, Melissa brought home Taco Bell for dinner. We ate dinner and watched some shows.

 Saturday, we had to wake up a little earlier than normal because we had an eye appointment to go to. We got ready and we took off. We got to the eye appointment and the air poof and the pictures fucked me up. The picture made my eye so blurry and they had to do it twice for the left eye. Then they're like okay read this. I said my eye is still blurry from the picture. They let me re-read the line and who has two thumbs up and has 20/20!? This guy right here! After the eye appointment, we headed down to Frost for some over priced delicious donuts.



 We stopped by one of my sites and brought one of the receptionists a donut because they were supposed to be by themselves, but there was a trainee there. After that we went to Fred Meyers for some work boots. We headed to Mod for some lunch.



 I made a delicious meat trio with a Hawaiian twist. Pepperoni, Canadian bacon, sausage, olives and pineapple. It was so damn good. After lunch, we hit Walmart and then finally home. I had to mow the lawn and all that. I should have charged the mower the night before, but I didn't and it died. So I had to plug it in for a little bit and I power edged and weed whacked then I finished the back yard. Later on I found out I forgot to the strip near the sidewalk and street, whatever. I got to play some Tomb Raider and then we watched some shows. Saturday night, we had some dinner and then we streamed some shows. 

 Sunday, we slept in a little bit and we did some chores. I had to fix that strip of grass I forgot and then I got to play some Far Cry Primal. I'm only like 8% complete   Damn. That's not very good. We watched some more shows and then we made breakfast burritos for dinner. We had egg, sausage and peppers. We watched Fear The Walking Dead and we went to bed. I really like this show, but it's kinda slow. I'm hoping it picks up, it does show a lot of zombies and that's the bottom line. That was a reference and I hope you got it. Ha ha, till next time.

Video game minute.

 So over the weekend, I played some Rise Of The Tomb Raider. I figured out the 10 games for summer and I figured that I need to focus the time I do get to play games to one game at a time, instead of trying to fit in like five games. So that's my plan so maybe like this weekend I'll play Far Cry Primal. So we went and ran a few errands and I got some new World Of Nintendo figures and I finally took a picture. So without further ado:



 I still want to get a shy guy and I want to get some more Attack On Titan, but they're $5 or so a piece and it's a mystery pack. You don't know what you're going to get. I just want a colossal Titan then I can be done. I think that's about it for now, till next time.

Weekend review for 4/9 - 10/16.

 Friday night, Melissa got some Chinese for dinner and we watched some shows. 

 Saturday, we woke up and we ran a couple errands. We went to jc penny's, Toys R Us, Hobby Lobby and to pick up my car. We went to the mall and Melissa saw this we buy your stuff store. I went in to check it out and everything seemed like legit stolen and dirty as shit. I saw some slim PS3s and they were so full of junk it was disgusting. We had a Jimmy Johns date and it was amazing. After lunch, we went to Hobby Lobby and then got my car. After sitting in traffic for a while, we got home and we got to relax. I played some Rise Of The Tomb Raider while Melissa played the ds. Saturday night, I made some pizzas for dinner and we watched some shows and went to bed. 

 Sunday, we got up and we started doing some house chores. Our neice came over for the day and we headed out to McDonald's for lunch date. We headed back to the house and we tried to watch Horton Hears A Who and played for a little bit. We watched some shows and then we had dinner. We watched a little bit of the Mtv movie awards and then we headed upstairs to watch Fear The Walking Dead and went to bed. I hope you had a good weekend, till next time.

Video game minute.

 It's time for the video game update. So Friday night, I got to play some video games. I popped in Tomb Raider so I could pass a section I was stuck on. Sunday, we got more game time and I have officially finished Tomb Raider. I got 70% complete, cause they want you to go back and replay all the levels. After finishing Tomb Raider I popped in Call Of Duty Black Ops. I had t played in a long time. I knew I was close to finishing, but I couldn't. There was just so much I had to replay. There's still a lot of glitches. I normally run and gun, but this time, I was like no I'm gonna do this like normal. I kept repeating itself until I just ran past a section. I did that like at least 10 times ha ha, whatever. 

 The 10 games for summer list in working on is going to include Tomb Raider even though I finished it. So I'm thinking:
1 Tomb Raider finished 4/3/16.
2 Call Of Duty Black Ops 
3 Rise Of The Tomb Raider 
4 Grand Theft Auto 3
5 Lego Jurassic Park 
6 The Last Of Us 
7 Army Of Two The Devils Cartel
8 Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
9 Heavy Rain 
10 Fry Cry Primal
11 Grand Theft Auto Stories From Liberty City

 I added a couple extra in there cause Far Cry is long and might not be able to be finished by the end of summer. Well that's what ingot for now, till next time.

Weekend review for 4/2 - 3/16.

 Friday night, Melissa got the new deep dish stuff crust pizza from Little Ceasars. I made some garlic cheese sticks and dinner was on. It was actually pretty good. We got some game time in, Melissa played some ds and I played some Tomb Raider. After gaming, we headed upstairs and we went to sleep. 

 Saturday, we got up and got ready to go. Melissa had bought our tickets for Superman V Batman Dawn Of Justice. We got to the theater and I got a Starbucks coffee, cinnamon bites and a soda. We scanned our tickets and the anticipation was growing. They showed an expanded trailer for X-Men Apocalypse, oh my god does it look even better. While I almost shed a tear, I came to the realization that, I just need to watch these movies and stop worrying about who's playing who and just watch my favorite characters on the big screen. Would I never want to see Apocalypse, or just let it be? I'll let it be and watch Apocalypse. So the movie was really good, but I didn't absolutely love it. It harder a darker tone to it. Everyone seemed to be broken and not very happy. Given the situation, I did understand why people were gloomy. But overall I think it was a really good movie. After the movie we both were starving so we went to lunch at McDonald's. After lunch, we headed home and relaxed for a little bit. I mowed the lawn then we watched some shows, had leftovers for dinner and then we went to bed. 

 Sunday, we had our normal house stuff to do. I got to play some games for quite a few hours. We made stuffed peppers for dinner and we watched some shows. I hoped you had a good weekend, till next time.
