Maybe I'll play Gauntlet with my gf. Other than that, meh.

I'd be ok with King's Quest if it wasn't the first episode only. But I agree with Tyler about getting pretty sick of the adventure games for PS4.
 
I wish I was a secret agent working for the resistance, and Kate beckinsale had to chase me down. Also, that we were married for a few weeks before I got my memory back, and we had sex every day.
 
Didn't realize King's Quest was straight up an adventure game. I know the series's heritage but thought this one was more actiony or something (maybe due to the art style?). Maybe I'll check it out at some point....but f....so many games currently.

Stop buying random games for a few weeks and your good to go. You cant possibly get through your backlog anyway!

Oh and beer, stop drinking beer. But I dont really think you should do that so stick with the no games buying.

 
Anyone using Nintendo Badge Arcade? It's actually sort of Nifty. I like getting the badges to use as folder icons on my 3DS. Look at me not bashing Nintendo. :)

 
Wingamestore has some sale going on including the Hyperdimension Neptunia PC ports at pretty good prices.

Re;Birth 1 - 5.99

Re;Birth 2 - 8.99

Re;Birth 3 - 11.99

Might get an additional 5% off with codes pcgames5off or macgames5off.

Lowest prices for these games according to isthereanydeal.com

Amnesia:Memories is 2.99, 90% off as well.

Seriously, $220 can't possibly even make a dent in the kind of bills you're talking about.

It makes a dent in the week to week shit that we're barely doing.

But yeah. I'm gonna refrain from cheap random game buying for a good long while. Only bought Jeopardy yesterday because I had some spacebucks left over.

Munky also points out that Gauntlet and Magicka are quite similar games. Basically this month's and last month's PS4 offerings are the exact same genres. 

Not personally bothered by that one because Magicka and Gauntlet are both games I would have bought at the right price.

Pretty happy with the PS4 offerings, definitely would have gotten gauntlet at some point, and I wouldn't mind trying king's quest. Freedom Wars was bound to happen eventually tho, maybe I'll try playing again. The beginning was pretty boring though.

Yeah, we're scheduled to close two hours early today, so it's kind of a waste that I took today off. That and I've already had to do a little work, of course. But at least I'm in my PJs playing games instead of sitting in my office.

I made the mistake this weekend of telling some friends that I'm considering retiring in 10 years. They asked the question everyone always asks: "What would you do all day?" My answer was the same as always: "Whatever the fuck I want!"

This guy...this guy gets it.

 
It's not a bad plus month for me.

There's nothing I haven't played or already own. I'll probably only get around to the Vita ones.

Still mired in the debate to stick with the ps3 or cut my losses and move to the ps4 and try remote play.

I didn't think so, but yea, more than you'd think. Just browsing through the recently released PS3 games list there's Marvel Puzzle Quest, Goosebumps, Jackbox Party Pack, Extreme Exorcism, Pumped BMX, Book of Unwritten Tales, Nova 111, Space Hulk, Back to Bed, Helldivers, The Bridge, Goat Simulator, The Swindle, QUBE, Monster Jam Battleground, Quiplash, Syberia, Sparkle Unleashed, Badland, Ultratron, Cosmophony, and Risk since May.

Not saying those games are great or even likely to appear on Plus, but I'd prefer one of those over 4 year old retail titles. But like I said, that's just me. After a game gets 3 years old, it starts showing up for $5 or less on PSN and used game stores. Pretty sure SSX has been as low as $3 before, so for someone like me with a ride range of tastes and paying attention to weekly deals, ancient retail games are actually a lot less valuable than mid-tier but newer indies.

Do you realize how many in that list are adventure titles? :)

Man you guys deserve it dealing with crazy bitches.

Not like you are spending 10x that on TV or something.

Seriously though I get being concerned about splurging but sometimes you have to say WTF (says the guy who 'needs' a TV for the man cave but probably isn't going to get one).

I work with people who are still in their 70s. When I started this job at 30 I was the youngest person there. (Not anymore thankfully)

As far as retierment? I think I'm "vested" and some of my paycheck is going into a 401k every month. I never set anything up though.

Eh, work till I'm dead. Or die.

I don't really drink anymore but if I was going through what you and Zimm and others are I would certainly take it up again.

The secret is to start it before you ever get to that point instead of after. Might want to get back on (or I guess off in this case) the wagon :)

FWIW Jackbox Party pack is a year old. Came out November last year. I have it on PS4 but never seem to play it. Probably because YDKJ doesn't support 3 DS4 controllers I have.

It is like riding a bike. I am sure I would pick it up quickly. Too bad there aren't trophies or achievements. I bet I would be a lot further up the leader board even though I haven't done much drinking in years.

Anyone have one of those Fire 7" tablets that are $50 right now?

Thoughts? Opinions? Haven't used it but still have things to say about it like you have used it (this one for Therm only)?
Click to expand...
We've had Kindles for a few years. Have two of those $50 tablets in the garage for Christmas presents.

They're mainly just used by the kids, but they work just fine. The only issue is that they're tied into Amazon. We have Amazon Prime so the kids use it to watch Prime video and play apps we've got from the app store.

Never had any issue with them. (we've replaced them several times but that's usually due to kid wear and tear on them. just buy the squaretrade warranty with it)

 
at the lower difficulty super mega baseball is even more like nes rbi baseball than I thought!

Since we are on the topic of drinking, tonight is even more of a night not to drink and drive (not that you should ever of course). It is widely believed to be the busiest bar day (even over NYE) for a number of reasons.

This is one of the reasons I don't miss drinking. I would have to take a cab or sleep over somewhere to drink like I used to. Not many good bars (probably none actually) around where I live. Too far to drive down to where I used to hang out. A few of my buddies still go out Friday and Saturday night in our old stomping grounds but most of us have moved a bit a way and either got married and had childern or live with our SO. Lucky I never got arrested (friends have was in the car once as a passenger) or into a bad accident.

I was rearended once after a night of drinking but I wasn't even moving and wasn't that drunk anyway. Still lots and lots of stupid nights.

At least in your league the two bottom dwellers didn't gobble up the newly promoted RB1s; Allen and Rawls. I've been getting by the last couple of weeks because my opponents have done shitty. I know in Week 10 I would have lost just about any other matchup, and last week SJD just had a bad week.

I've been hurting at RB after losing Bell and Lewis in back-to-back weeks. I have Dougie Fresh and then a bunch of guys on teams that do RB by committee. It would have been nice to pick up a RB1. fuck Crazy and MWN!

I had a lab border collie mix, so watch yourself as it gets older as border collie's are problem solving smart. It will help that the terrier should keep his size down. The lab portion kept mine pretty big. Border collie's are also herders so they will have the tendency to chase and nip at your legs / heels if they get excited.

Nintendo Badge Arcade 5 free plays to start 1 or more a day by doing the practice plays after that. Don't say Nintendo didn't ever give you anything even if it's just worthless badges and folder icons. I like it though.
