OFF?BEAT? THURSDAY! Just something to do!

On 05/23/2013 at 08:15 AM by Homelessrook

Hey Pixls, Just my weekly update of what I am playing and what I have been up to. Also some music. So let's do this thing.

My oldest Birthday was a couple of weeks ago. All she wanted was Skylanders Spyro's Adventures for her Wii. So being the parents we are, we got her the game and some extra characters for the game. We also got her the Skylander Wiimote (not Shown)

Well after watching her play it and seeing she has a good grasp of it. My wife told me that they had the PS3 and 360 version at Target for 35 dollars. Well I thought about it and decided to get it. We went to Target and there it was Skylanders Giants Portal owners for 30 bucks, for me that was an easy sale. Now we have both. I am enjoying playing this game.

Today I may go back through Arkham Asylum and look for the extras.

Well now for some music!

And there you are.

I've only ever seen any heard of Skylanders, but I have no clue what it is exactly..

Is it kind of like a Pokemon themed game, only you buy the creatures instead of capturing them?
I honestly have no idea what it is.. lol

the figures are what you use to play the game with. They each have special powers.

Time for some shameless(?) self-promotion!

No shame in helping someone Nick!

If that were the case, then I would feel like a spam-bot for posting my Dark Souls videos from my BvsC account!

I miss Adam Sandler's old movies. Skylanders seems like it would be fun, but also addicting. Those little figures are everywhere!

Skylanders would put me into bankruptcy. I love collecting little do-dads, especially when they look like little monsters and little dragons. lol.

I still need to pick up Asylum sometime.

Skylanders is a neat little game for kids. I've written lots of features about it over at GamerDad.com. The newest game, out this fall, lets you mix and match parts from each figure to make new ones!

"Gatorade.....Gatorade....." talk about trauma to the poor fellow. Love that movie. That's some high quality H2O! "i'm on a mutha fuc#@* boat' is what we start singing when the Hijacked level pops up in COD:BO2 multiplayer. Big fancy yacht that looks a lot like that one in the video. MC Serch was pretty cool,liked that song. His tone reminds me of the guy from the comedy rap duo Cracked Out. Ever heard Benniganz or Fuck#* Yo Mom In Da Ass? The last one is on YouTube,pretty funny. As for Skylanders that is one brilliant concept. A stroke of genius for whoever thought of that. Toys that are linked to the game itself. Kids must go nuts for it.
