The Weekender 10/17/14 Edition


Posted on 10/18/2014 at 12:10 PM | Filed Under Blogs

That documentary is awesome, those cats pioneered modern skate boarding. I been watching the new season of American Horror story with my friend and I am liking it way more than I though I would. I miss having cable, love No Reservations and Bizare Foods.

 Still reading my Tao book, almost done. Then I'm going to start on The Te of Piglet, its the follow of to the Tao book.

And of course I'm neck deep in Borderland TPS, really like the new mechanics and weapon types. This game really is a must play for any fan of Borderlands. Some people were quick to call it a glorified dlc, but it really can stand on its own.

Food, nothing too fancy this week, vietnamese shrimp poboy, eating a lot of fresh vegies, trying to lose some weight and its working.

That new Borderlands is kind of weird, but it's good.

In the older games playing a mission that was a level or two above you was super hard. I have played through a couple of missions that were a level or two above me in this game and got through without too much stress. But it never hurts to knock out a few sub-quests for the exp and gear, espeacially those that give you blue grade weapons and such. I  prefer to play solo too, at least the first time through. Once i have beat it and start hunting for legendarys its fun to have some help.

I am loving the heck out of this game. But I'm also a huge Borderlands nut so I might be a bit biased. There  have been a few people who do not like the new gravity and oxygen mechanics, but I think it gives the game a unique twist so it does not just feel like Borderlands 2.5. I do feel this one Is a little easier. leveling up pretty quick and I already got a legendary grenage mod. I never got legendaries the first run in the other games. Drop rate is much better. I also think its cool that you get to see the imediate events leading up to BL2 from the side of Hansom Jack. And the new beam & laser  weapons are a blast to play with. And the sound track really is awesome. Gonna be looking for it on Amazon for sure.

Playing Destiny still although come Tuesday I wll be changing gears to Borderlands Presequel. Destiny is getting to be a bit stale. Just too damn grindy, guess that's an mmo thing. Had the same problem with FF Realms.

I watched a really funny documentary called "King of Kong; Fist Full of Quarters". Its about a guy who decides to try and beat the top score for Donky Kong that has been in place for almost 20 years.  And the guy who set the record is not going to let his score fall with out a fight. But that description really does not do the movie justice. There is so much more to it.

I am reading The Tao of Pooh by Benamin Hoff. This a very interesting book that uses the characters from Winnie the Pooh to explain and instruct the fundimentals of Taoism. 

What happend? No food this time? lol Oh well, I had Korean Short ribs for lunch, but they were nothing to write home about.

Best Games of the Decade: 2001

I was kind of disappointed with VIII too, although I enjoyed it more the second time I played it. I have not Played FFX since it came out, maybe I should give it another chance. I did have very high expectations for sure.

Sadly I'm one of those guys who feels FFX was the begining of the end for the series. I will not argue that it is still one of the most visually stunning games on the PS2. But by the time I finished it I was just pissed and annoyed with it. I did not like how they handled the weapons and skills. The plot was just repetitive and redundant, and the final boss was just lame. Then there were those damn near impossible ultimate weapon quests. No world map. FF12 kind of made of made up for it but as far as I'm concerned the core series ended with IX. Sorry, not trying to troll.lol This is a great list. I always wanted to play Conker but I never had a 64. Ico is a game I ususally have to dig out and play once a year along with Shadow of the Collosus. I picked up the HD Jak & Dax collection a few months back and it is still a lot of fun to play after all these years.

Destiny Review

I agree with you for the most part. Although I felt that the difference between classes and subclasses were very distinct. My main is a Hunter and the Gubslinger and Blade Dancer builds are like night and day. My main issue was not so much in the quality of the story but that there was so little. I just don't feel like there is $60 worth of game here. The story will continue, but you got to put another $20 into it in two months. That aside I really am enjoying the heck out of this game. I just hope Bungie and Activision don't turn this into a shameless money drain in order to keep playing.

[What are you playing now?]

I got Akiba's Trip in my Gamefly Q, craziest  idea for a game I think I have seen in years. Glad to hear its fun. I'm playing Destiny and just got Far Cry 3 but haven't had a chance to try it out. 

3 Limited 3DS XLs coming Westward

Wow, really liking the NES and Persona models. I'm not all that interested in a 3DS, if these are cheap enough I may bite. But that is still going to be a tough choice deciding which one though.

It is My Destiny...to Play Destiny Tommarrow.

Yeah, I knew there was no way I was going to get to play it last night. Plus after my experirnce with FF Realms Reborn I knew there was chance of servers crashing and such. But so far it sounds like most people are getting on pretty easy.
