Found some of my old games in a box. Good times. Now got to find my N64 and Snes. Thinking about playing some Final Fantasy 3 (yeah I know it’s FF6) at least.

Me playing some Skyrim earlier this week.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 - Part 1 - To Kill A Cie’th, Damn Status Effects!

Some basics tips included. For example, the reasons for my character/monster setup and why I choose the particular location for grinding in the video. Also, some first impressions and commentary on certain aspects of the game.

Disclaimer: This is not, nor will be, a full playthrough of Final Fantasy XIII-2.

Background: Ran into a nasty Cie’th for a quest in Yaschas Massif AF1X the previous time I played. Status effects are crazy! I wanted to beat him so I went searching for a Grind/Farm spot to level up my characters and monsters. You know what? I in fact discovered one.

Once I was satisfied with my character growth I try to take on the Cie’th once more.

And somehow still get to level 50 on The Old Republic. Fun… But yeah, Kingdoms of Amalur comes out next week. Can’t wait!

My first impressions of Skyward Sword after two hours. More later when I play further.

In this video I explain how to take down a Mammoth early on in Skyrim and not have to worry about those pesky Giants. Requires a bow or magic.

I am playing the game on Expert, so it may prove to be even more helpful at higher difficulty modes.

Crazy glitch I found in Skyrim where when you get off your horse it goes flying off into the distance. This game is buggy as hell. Patch it please Bethesda!

Yup! Not doing anything else this weekend.

Just waiting for activation to start making money on my videos. Just to let everyone know I do playthroughs videos and tips for select games I play. All videos have live commentary that serve as impressions and review of the game. I also discuss the game design philosophies as well the gaming industry if I find something in the game that may be relevant.

I have a rough schedule in place for videos… .

October 25 - 31 : Kirby’s Return to Dreamland (Wii)

October 25 - onward: Battlefield 3 (PC). I will be uploading select multiplayer sessions

November 1 - 10: Uncharted 3 and Sonic Generations and maybe Lord of the Rings: War of the North (PS3).

November 11 - onward - Skyrim (PC). Know way can I do a full playthrough a week. I will play select sections of the game and show off quests, character builds, and mods.

November 20 - Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. I expect to get a lot of views from this playthrough.

I still need to finish uploading my Deus Ex playthrough. Had to put it on halt because Youtube has been screwy with upload errors and such for the past month and a half. I’m almost done with the game. I just need to upload footage sitting on my harddrive plus I have a ton of parts just sitting in private until I am done. What happened was I would upload footage and it will error out, or complete and not show up. So yeah, that is the reason my Deus Ex playthrough looks incomplete.

Doing a playthrough of Deux Ex: Human Revolution with commentary. Here is the playlist link: http://www.youtube.com/user/SolidDave666#grid/user/742B508E77F44775

Wow! This is a different take on Bejeweled and Puzzle Quest. Asymmetrical lines with physics. Very fun with an original spin on an established game.

Played it 8 hours yesterday. So good and polished for being an early build of the game. Graphic are nuts on Directx 11 highest available settings.

The new price tag is $169. Which I have stated should of been around that price from the get go. Seriously it makes no sense to charge someone $250 for something they already have. But Dave it’s in 3D! Functionality wise it does nothing more than the DS I bought years ago for $140.

So why would one pay the price of PS3 to play games on a tiny ass screen, when I already have a tiny ass screen system plays games just fine? If one has $250 it makes more sense to buy a Playstation 3 to get the best home console HD gaming experience available. Same issue I have with the PSP Vita. How much sense does it make to play watered down games on a tiny screen for around the same price a real console.

If you are the type that travels or commutes a lot or you are away from home a lot, I understand then. But, it makes no sense to be sitting at home playing a portable console. I think most people when they are at home they are playing their PS3 or Xbox 360 while the portable console sits on a shelf.

And people thought I was crazy when I made this argument about the price point of 3DS and PS Vita. But I am right. Nintendo now sees their mistake.
