Good. Our first catch of the day.

I was going to stay in bed today when Mom asked if I wanted to sleep in or go to the local GoodWill, but then I changed my mind, and I’m glad I did. I actually got a good haul from the store. Starting with a rare find among a crapton of shirts I found this piece of clothing:

Skyward Sword shirt

Granted it was about Skyward Sword (one of the Zelda games I haven’t played because I don’t have a motion plus wiimote and I prefer the overhead style games) but I got it anyway. Next two items are games. Starting with this neat find:

Dark Forces 2

So now I have three of the Jedi Knight games. I was going to say I also have two Dark Force games but I seem to have traded that in. I couldn’t stand the non-analog gamepad controls: Your shots did hit like it was Doom but there was aiming. But I think I’ll add the first Dark Force title to my wishlists. With the next game I had to ask one of the guys that works there to let me see the basket it was in. I bring this up because he looked like that James guy from Extra Credits if he was Kylo Ren. He mentioned that there were mostly kids games in there but I also bring up that sometimes the staff there also put some GBA games in the mix. So we had a little talk about the trail game mix I found out that this game exists:

Diddy Kong Racing case

And I got it. It would have been three games but there were a couple of problems. The first problem was that the game, which was Doom 3, only had three of the four discs in the case. The second being that even if I got it the serial key wouldn’t work with Steam since it was an early code. But I’m glad with my find.

This Saturday is my birthday… and I have to work. I’m hoping my request off for the next day goes through so I can spend Saturday night playing some multiplayer. Next week is also when Final Fantasy Explorers comes out but I may get that on Payday next week since it’s a few days after my loan payment…

Till next time.

Edit: And I have a review on the way being published.

Ha ha great quote!

Great shirt too!  I tried playing skyward sword but just couldn't handle the motion controls.

One of the reasons why I prefer to play the ones with the traditional overhead gameplay.

I love finding things out there in the wilds. I like the mix of exploration and racing in Diddy Kong Racing. Wish more games had that kind of thing.

Kind of sad that I can't use WiFi with it but it has single card multiplayer. I just need to "gather" some player.

I am just about to start Dark Forces II. Always wanted to play the Jedi Knight games.

I've tried a bit of Jedi Outcast but I that first level is a bit complex.

Good pickups from Goodwill. The local store used to be full of good stuff but now its hit and miss. Always check the CDs too. Disc based games are sometimes placed with the audio CDs.

I know, that's where I found Doom 3, which I thought had a missing disc. I think I might be wrong, though. I'm going to mention it in the next blog.
