Ok so I didn’t get anything posted for June. But hey, it is only the beginning of July so…
I saw an article that Sony was discontinuing production of the PS3 even in Japan so I decided it was time to trade in my PS3 and
all it’s games and finally move up to a PS4.
That worked out pretty well. I got a pre-owned one with a 500GB drive, 3 games, a pack of control freaks and the down payment on
the pre-order of Destiny 2 all for about $200. That was cool.
So the games I got… Mad Max, Uncharted 4, and Assassins Creed IV – Black Flag. And no, I haven’t played any of them yet. I know,
I know.
I’ve been watching some people on Twitch play Tekken 7 and that has looked like so much fun that I finally gave in and purchased
it. I was able to get a pre-owned of it too so I saved like $10 or $15, which is always nice. I also picked up a Pinball game
because well, I like Pinball. And I got Skyrim.
I’ve played a few of the tables in Pinball. That’s fun. And it’s a quick thing. With the way my schedule goes, I like having games
I can get in and out of quick so Pinball works well for that.
I’ve also played Tekken 7. That is as much fun as it looked like. I’m still playing against the computer but I’ve got Shaheen up to
like 1st Dan. I’m looking forward to playing a few more of the fighters and getting them up there like that. I will try playing
online against other players as well I just haven’t done it yet. I want to play a few more fighters before I do that.
Back on the Xbox One. I haven’t made any progress with anything. I thought about starting Destiny or Watch Dogs the other day but
didn’t get there. I started a new vault in Fallout Shelter. The one I had was getting frustrating. I think it grew too fast and so
I didn’t have people prepared to fight the Deathclaws or whatever they were that kept attacking. I’m going a little slower with
this vault and I’ve managed to collect some special/rare vault dwellers that have some extra stats. That’s been cool.
On the PC well, no I haven’t made any progress. Wait. That’s not exactly true. I did finish the first mission in Watch Dogs 2.
Except I’m not sure it’s the first mission. It’s more like the preview mission. You know how movies start with some event before
they show the opening credits and get into the story? Well that’s what the first mission for Watch Dogs 2 is. I was a bit pissed at
that. But I did finish it and manage to get my new phone setup and some new clothes. I heisted a motorcycle and managed to make it
to Deadsec headquarters. So I’ve made some progress there but I haven’t gotten back to it.
And finally there’s Zelda. I’ve made some progress there. I’m off the plateau as I said before. I’ve made it to the first town and
then found the old lady I was supposed to find and now I’m off to try and find the 4 groupls that control the guardians. At least I
think that’s what they control. Anyway. It’s progress. Even if it is slow.
There you go. I managed to get some game time in in between working, Taekwondo, studying for a test and taking an online
programming class. Yep, things tend to be a bit busy in my world. I’m also working on a robot project and a Raspberry Pi/Google AIY
project. So yeah, keeping up with the games, not that easy. Though right now, I think I’m going to go play a little more Tekken7.
