I almost missed this because I wrote the wrong release date down, but a co-worker set me straight and I dashed out to see it before it was out of the theaters. I'd say I liked it mostly, but there was something that just seemed flat about the performances and story to me. It was a sight to behold though, I'll give it that. 

This is what I picked up last time I was at Classic Game Junkies. I'm also including an item I saw there but didn't buy. 

I saved the 2-page ads for this blog. There were a lot of them. 2-page ads are always super cool. I love finding them. 

I found a few of these print ads one day, and then I hit the motherload with a comic called Outlaw Nation. This comic had five or more video game ads per issue. I photographed them all to share here.

I funny thing happened on the way to my Switch. A friend I hadn't talked to in years texted me and started a conversation about Animal Crossing. Turns out he'd been playing it during the pandemic. We friended up, I visited his island, and he mine. The whole experience was really cool.

I just finished the last issue of this Witcher comic book story arc. I wasn't all that thrilled with it at first, but its ending changed my mind. 

I saw this the weekend it came out on IMAX. I enjoyed it quite a bit from story to cast to music. 

Oh, the strange stuff I find on Game Pass every week that turn out to be another obsession. This time it was indie game Loop Hero. Check it out. 

I played this on Game Pass a while ago and beat the main story, but I didn't do any major work on the collectibles and other tasks thinking they were too tedious. A challenge for Microsoft Rewards points brought me back to the game, and I found most of the side missions and collectibles not as difficult as I thought and nearly cleared everything in the game. 

I'm a big fan of the Pikmin series. My eyes are always on the lookout for games that use its minon-controlling mechanic like the Overlord games or Hotel Transylvania 3: Monsters Overboard. I even try and shoehorn that mechanic into games like Diablo II. The Necromancer character lets me command groups of skeletons and golems. So when TinyKin appeared on Game Pass one week, I had to play it.
