Weekly Update 6-30-13

Current News:
So I just recently uploaded my first video of GameDev Tycoon on the PC. I will most likely redo it with a different program that will allow me to do 20-30min episodes also I shouldnt be hacking up so much snot. I have also decided to not do DC Universe as a video play through but to instead to Roller Coaster Tycoon 3+Expansions. I would do a Skyrim but I am playing that on the Xbox I do not want to get burned out by it.

Flea Market: 
I did not set up yesterday due to just not feeling good due to the lack of sleep. So I just slowly cleaned the house and got set up for my Halo 2 LAN. Which went off fairly well considering I have never hosted a true LAN before in the house I am currently living in. Today I went to the flea market rather late due to poor sales last week in the early morning so I got their around 10am and there was hardly anyone there shopping or set up. They have 1 row of sheltered booths and 2 rows of un-sheltered spots, the sheltered was full as normal but the first row of spots were not even filled. So I decided to walk around for a little bit until a storm popped up dropped a ton of rain on me then went away. So I decided to just cut my losses at $2 instead of risking paying $19 and getting rained out or just not enough foot traffic.

Future News: 
Tonight and later this week ill be posting more videos from GameDev Tycoon and Roller Coaster Tycoon. Hopefully this new screen recording software is better than FRAPS and youtube wont take 9hrs to download a 10min video.

So thanks for reading/following/sharing/commenting ill see ya next time.

Tablet blogging

So this is my first blog from the tablet. If I have lots of errors Im sorry.

Treasure Aisles Update: Saturday so were slow but made a profitt, possibly getting a connection into vintage star wars figures. No sales for Sunday, had a birthday party to go to.

Righ Now: I recently found a new guy on youtube to watch playthoughs of games. It started with SimCity and now I'm watching his GameDev Tycoon and Skyrim. You can check him out at yogacastsips. He also does live plays of games like Terraria. He is funny and canadian, he does css but is funny about it. He loves to roleplay and will do it for anything. Playing simcity he when turning off buildings he would say that it was pencil dick from ghostbusters.

This Week: I'll be starting playthroughs of DC Universe Online as well as GameDev Tycoon so be on the look out for them also.

E3 Game Recap

So this year's E3 had a ton of games that looked awesome!! Here will be my rundown on the games that caught my eye.

I will try and keep the lists short and the videos short so you are not sitting and watching videos all day.



XBOXONE

First Ill start off with the biggest reveal trailer of E3 of any game:

The game I wanted to play most: Project Spark

If the single player is more than 6hrs then this game will be good.

So there is 3 XboxOne Exclusive titles that made an impact on me at this years E3.




PLAYSTATION 4


I have never been able to play these games before but I am looking forward to it.

This game is suppose to place over a 15 year time span so hopefully they dont skip ahead too much and the single player is a good size.

So there was two Playstation 4 exclusives that I am looking forward to playing. Yes I know there is a few other games that are out their but I have no interest in playing them.

Now for the cross platforms games!!! Im going to limit them to the 4 best games I want to play. I created a list to help me narrow them down and its at 9 but im only going to do 4 games.


Love these games and cant wait to play them online.

Hopefully this game will finally get made. Also the funniest trailer from E3

The most anticipated game!!

This will most likely the only game Ill need for awhile.

Well there you have it, my choice of games from this years E3 that I am looking forward to. 

. 

XboxOne v. PS4 (On going updates)

Recently this years E3 has wrapped up and ive had time for it to all soak in and this what I think of it.

Got home from work and ignored the wife to watch the on demand of the Microsoft press conference and I was super excited and I was like YES!! Im so getting the new xbox. Woke up and watched the Sony press conference and was like yeaaaa not getting the Xbox now.

So instead of just raging into a massive rant I will just list my pros and cons and you can make your own opinion but my list will be my reasons. I also may not be right on everything so feel free to correct me.

Xbox One (Really? You already have an Xbox One it was big bulky and awesome!!)
Pros:
- Halo
- Ill finally get a Kinect (Force to not only use it but rearrange our living room so there is a enough room to play it)
- Sharing games with your friends through the cloud. Not sure how this will be effected with Microsoft's new policies. 

Cons:
- Price of $499 ( I have to pay for my next system with my own money.)
- Daily check in: NO LONGER REQUIRED
- Used Games: NEW POLICY. They switched back to not having restrictions. 


Playstation 4 
Pros:
- Price of $399
- Playstation+ is required now but $10 cheaper than live and provides a lot of the same apps.
- MLB The Show (I finally get to play a good baseball game again)
- Free games like DC Universe Online

Cons:
- Halo (Can just go to a friends house if I really want to play it)
- Um....cant really think of anymore.


Best quote from E3 regarding the new systems is:
If you dont have internet we have a console, its called the 360. Well now its the XboxOne 1.5

Yea ill be getting my 2 free games from XBL, cancelling our subscription in December, move the xbox downstairs and the roku box upstairs until we get a PS4

Best Console Video of E3

So there is my system recap. Look for my gaming update later today or tonight, the wife left me a list of things to do before work today.

Getting my sorry butt back to work.

So I have been gone for sometime, not because I was busy but just because I have been super lazy. Starting Wednesday I will be bringing you all updates about everything gaming and entertainment going on in my life. E3 just came and went so a blog will be posted with trailers of all the things im looking forward to. I have started my own booth at my local flea market selling dvd's, games, toys, and anything else related to awesome things. I will be also getting back into doing Lets Play and trying to make them not suck this time around. I will start with DC Universe online first and possibly SimCity as well. I have decided not do as many game reviews but broaden my scope of entertainment coverage including my two cents on the new Superman movie "Man of Steel". I hope more and more people start to follow me and get helpful advice from the things I have to say. Thanks for reading and hope to see your comments on Wednesday night.
