Please, all of you, do not tell me you are playing X-Com 2 before Friday. This game is getting the hottest reviews I've sen, and it's unusual for any February release to be called a shoe-in for game of the year consideration, but.. yeah, we're there. I'll have a full review of it up on release.

Yeah, X-Com 2 on Friday. hold all my plans for the weekend. It may be for the best that my Patriots aren't in the super bowl. More time to play XCOM.

Darkest Dungeon.
A game about flawed heroes, a dungeon into the mouth of hell itself. And despite the heroes being flawed, spending their time they're NOT fighting the minions of darkness.. drinking and gambling, and whoring.. being even more heroic because they're so flawed. And because there's no phoenix downs, no 1ups here. They die, they're gone forever (especially because the game frequently autosaves to prevent savescumming).So, you get more invested when that character you spent hours and hours building up that came through for you time and time again dies because you thought he could pull it out one more time, and you asked for that one step over the line.It's great. I love it.And it's the first game in my Fifteen for February attempt.

A new edition of Wot I'm Playing, as my gaming group has decided they're in the mood for BIG GIANT STOMPY ROBOT gameplay, and you don't get much bigger, gianter, or.. (um.. stompier? Is that a word?) then Battletech, a game three decades strong and getting stronger!

Oh, and I've started the Fifteen for February, and will have a report on the first game in the Core Four, Darkest Dungeon later today!

Wasn't a long stream tonight, kept having connection issues to warcraft, but here's the weekend news update! https://www.an8bitmind.com/index.php/2016/01/29/weekend-news-update-129/

It's an early stream tonight! Finally breaking through WotLK, into Cataclysm dungeons. The 0-100 Tanking Challenge Continues!

I can't play one of the hottest selling games on Steam. I want to, but you know, the fact I can't read Korean or Chinese is a slight issue (and also: A Ninety buck game is one of the hottest new games on Steam? Talk about a rabid fanbase!)

Happy Hump Day! Hopefully, you're getting it, but if you're not, at least get OVER the hump with a Wednesday Night Twitch Stream! Gotta build up a schedule for the Fifteen in February! http://twitch.tv/sirfozzie

Hey Cool - I got an access code for the closed beta for The Division.
Anyone else?
I didn't.
Was hoping to do a preview for an8bitmind

There are reasons I will add non-video game stories to the blog. Like this one about a security flaw with Lenovo software (yes, again). Why? Because it allows me to sneak in a gratuitous Spaceballs reference.
-
Couple new posts up, breaking down the Atari Vault (including classic arcade games), and breaking down Game Informer's Top 50 of the year, and some of the statistics will surprise you!
(also in blog news, we will be running streams at least 6 days a week, starting around 8 PM Eastern daily)

Congrats to the Broncos. They played better. We were lucky to be in it at the end

I'm already looking at this going.. "Fifteen game challenges completed in a month? Foz, you are NUTS!" (but then again, y'all already knew that!) The main goal is the Four, the rest are bonus goals, and you'll be able to watch me all next month attempt this on Twitch.

Started playing ME1 again. So much fun, but I didn't miss the equipment system

(hums in Peyton Manning voice) Mass Effect you play so good...

What's the difference between a good tank and a bad tank in MMO's like World of Warcraft? Quite often, it's the other players. It's the difference between like "Ok here we go.." and "Oh *@$@%! what just happened"

A Late night edition of Wot I'm playing, featuring Reiner Kinizia's Age of War. https://www.an8bitmind.com/index.php/2016/01/18/wot-im-playing-reiner-knizias-age-of-war/

Had to share this. The good thing about tabletop skirmishing games (like Warhammer) is that it doesn't lead to this, generally being a 1 v 1 game, but I know say, Diplomacy has ended groups that have been running for decades.

yeah, I posted on the espn facebook feed "I may disagree with him on DeflateGate, but Screw Cancer" (especially because my mom passing away last month for it)
My computer had me looking for the mute button because there was 450 likes of that comment.

I think the post match fireworks were funny. We needed the " Anonymous Showtime Boxing General Manager" to come out and book these guys in a match/
(From the Guardian Liveblog)
Tyson Fury is in the ring. And he’s trying to wrest the mic from ring announcer Jimmy Lennon Jr. He ultimately succeeds, but Showtime has powered it off.
Amazing fireworks between Fury and Wilder in the ring after the fight. “Anytime, anyplace, anywhere,” Fury cries while getting within inches of Wilder’s face. Responds Wilder: “You can run around like a preacher, but I will baptize you!” It looks like this is a fight that could actually happen.
(Fury departed with a screw you gesture to the crowd.. then)
“We all know Fury is just a phony,” Wilder said. “This is just an act. I’m not scared of anybody. We’ll come to your backyard. This is just an act – you’re not a real fighter. I don’t play. This isn’t wrestling. This isn’t the WWE. When you do step in that ring with me I promise you I will baptize you.“I would love to fight him next, unfortunately. I have other mandatories due. Make the date Tyson, I promise you.”

Between the Pats game, and learning a new dice game with Eric and Chris (which will be covered in a Wot I'm Playing in the near future), didn't get much done today, but I did come across the best thing ever, a full choir version of Still Alive. https://www.an8bitmind.com/index.php/2016/01/16/not-much-got-done-today/

Everyone, I'm looking for more voices for my video game site. If there's anything you want me to think about publishing for an8bitmind, say, about your favorite game/genre or what have you, just shoot me a PM or an email ([email protected]) and I'll see what I can do.
