PixlBit

Good morning Pixlpeeps! It is a breezy Monday here in Southern California and I finished breakfast and I am ready to update you good people on the things I played or at least tried to this past week. I played a handful of stuff some new and some are my usual so let’s get started.

 

Chris Played

Madden 20 - PC (Steam): After the first season with the Niners, which saw our squad lose at home in our first playoff game, the next season saw the Niners sign a really expensive RB and since then the squad raced through the season losing only one game, and leaned on the really expensive RB to a Super Bowl. Niners beat the Ravens on the performance of a 20 carry 172 yard day. The next season I traded my starting QB and our 1^st round pick to the Jacksonville Jaguars for their number 1 overall pick and their first pick in the second round. I then traded that number 1 pick to the Dolphins who had number 2 overall for their number 2 overall, and their first second round pick. Tampa sitting at 3 wanted too much so I went to Minnesota and I grabbed their number 4 pick and their first pick in the second round for my number 2 overall. I then traded the three second round picks I aquired to the Raiders for their number 5 overall pick. I wanted a QB but couldn’t find one at that spot so instead I got a LT, and a DT, and ended up grabbing a starting QB in the third round that I renamed Bo Callahan (oh you Draft Day fans…)

The Niners are currently 1-0.

 

Battlefield IV - PC (Origin): So I started this game up, played through the first level and I have no idea how to do certain things in the game because it wants me to use a mouse. I’m currently using a controller. I played part of the second mission but apparently it didn’t save and I really don’t want to sit through that long cutscene on the aircraft carrier again so I’m waiting a little bit.

 

Street Fighter V - PC (Steam): I started this game earlier this morning before breakfast and I have to say the game itself is freaking beautiful with the art style and how fluid everything looks. What isn’t beautiful is my button mashing tactics, looking for other characters to use other than Ryu, and what are those annoying commercial screens? You pay $7 for a game you’d think you’re getting a complete game. Anyways there’s a lot to soak in, and my question will probably be answered with more playtime.

 

Word Search+ - iOS: My new morning routine and I finished the Medium puzzles and moved to the Hard Puzzles. The average time jumped from 3-4 minutes for medium, to 5-6 minutes for hard. There’s more letters on the board and a lot of the words are backwards. It’s still a word search so it isn’t bad.

 

Retro Bowl - iOS: Instead of playing two puzzles on Word Search + I mixed in a game of Retro Bowl where I’m using the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers were down 14-0 to the Philadelphia Eagles and I managed to get the score down to something like 17-10 before I couldn’t convert on 4^th. The Eagles made the score 24-20 and on the last play of the game I threw a bomb to my speedy WR and he raced into the end zone as time expired and the Chargers won the game. 8bit, current graphics, it doesn’t matter, the thrill of winning last second is still the same.

 

I have a bit of free time this week so I might go back to my trying out random Steam games and seeing if it’s worth it to keep some of them installed. Anyways have a good week

 

That’s all for now, more later!
