Well with one more day of work with a 5 day weekend I do have some ideas on what I will be doing and despite the fact I have been playing Dragon Age Inquisition I have been watching and playing other games, so last Saturday I lounged it was pouring rain so I kicked back and watched Das Boot which is a all German voiced movie but a great movie about the Submarines of WW2.

And of course I like to play games after words that relate to the movie so I was playing CrashDive on my Tablet wich is a awesome ww2 Sub sim.

So then I watched a old classic ww2 movie Twelve O'clock High with Gregory Peck and although its in black & white its a awesome movie about the B17 bombers and the hell these brave men went through, and of course I played another WW2 game Historys Legends of War: Patton. 

 

Patton is a pretty good game its like Xcom but set in ww2 and is one of the games I play alot.

So this was my weekend had alot of fun and I did pick up Theme Hospital on psn classics which im actually really enjoying its got a learning curve and its nothing fancy graphic wise but none the less a very entertaining game.

Man, I like all those games and movies. I've had my eye on History Legends of War Patton for a while now, and I watched the trailer for Crash Dive and I liked that. I saw das Boot. It's funny you bring it up because I'm at a vacation spot where I watched that with my Dad years ago. I think he fell asleep during it because it's very long, but I was glued to the TV every minute. I probably saw 12 O'clock High once way back but I don't remember much about it. Need to see that again.

I have ALWAYS wanted to watch Das Boot, but have never found the time, or anybody who is interested in watching it with me.  I love submarine movies and the movies inspired by them (Star Trek 2 for instance).  

My parents and I watched the Patton movie when we were in California.  I've seen it a million times, but it's always fun.  We even went to the Patton museum in California once.  Very Cool.

You always find the most obscure console games. I like it.  I usually go to PC for stuff like this, but I should keep my eyes open when it comes to console game selection.

Love the cover for 12 O'Clock High. It's looks like he's smoking a spliff. How fitting. :)

I called my wife over and she got a laugh out of it too. I mean the title sounds like it's some after school special about kids smoking dope on their lunch break. :D

Hey Gregory Peck! He went to SDSU for a little bit, and I think ran track. Theme Hospital sounds like a perfect game for a tablet.
