In 1991, Origin Systems gave Game Boy owners a taste of the Ultima series with a unique entry, Ultima: Runes of Virtue. Unlike many Ultima spinoffs, this was actually developed in-house at Origin Systems, by many longtime Origin staff who had most recently worked on Ultima VI: The False Prophet. As a result, the art style in this games resembles Ultima VI.

What it is: Stuff I played close to the year of release or at least during console generation 7, listed in order of Metacritic ranking for 2008. 

I'm getting closer to the end of my 360 games now, but it may be a few more weeks still before I move on to PS3 or Wii. I really can't wait to start those. 

One of my brothers got married a couple of weeks ago, hence the title of this blog.  So congrats to him!  And I also got married as well.  Sort of.  You’ll just have to read on to find out!  Yeah, sorry to use clickbait on you all, but it’s fun when it’s fun.  Anyway after all this wedding stuff are more reviews I’ve recently written over at GamerDad.com.  Please click on the links and read as many as you can and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  OK let’s begin!

The first thing that comes to mind is changing my Xbox gamertag. I got one in 2004 when Xbox Live Arcade dropped but a mini-game on an Official Xbox Magazine demo disc was giving me trouble in '07, and I thought a new gamertag would solve it. Well, it did solve it, but I lost touch with my old gamertag over time, and now it's probably been deactivated along with the few games I bought under it. It'll be 20 years on my current gamertag next year. It could've been 23 years if I'd stuck with my original one.

I ripped through a lot of stuff this week, being impatient to get through it all, the slightest annoyance sending me to the next game in my collection. But, I had a lot of good experiences anyway. I'll break these 360 games into two categories, physical and digital only (or, Xbox Live Arcade as it used to be called). 

Games Beaten

'cause it feels so good. Stuff I played a lot in the 7th generation of consoles, 2005-2013ish. 

I got through a lot combining the end of last week's and all of this week's gaming. I'm clearly not going for complete runs. I just play to revisit and go as far as I stay interested. Here's the lot on Xbox 360:

It’s always nice to get to review a game I really wanted to play.  It happens less and less nowadays.  So as a big Bluey fan and genuinely interested in good games for kids, I’m glad I got to review this first game on my review blog list.  So please click on as many GamerDad game reviews as you can and maybe post a ‘like’ or comment or two.  I’d appreciate it.  OK let’s do this!
