Games for Gold: Saints Row the Third

So, I've never actually tried any of the games offered for free for Xbox Live Gold members before, mostly because they were games I didn't care about or that I already had. But the current one is Saints Row the Third which is a game I had wanted to buy when it came out but never got around to it. But, with getting it for free, I don't have to worry about that anymore. And this game is really freaking fun. It's got a small bit more freedom than GTA V does but it also offers more things to do around the map. There are still things I like better in GTA V but still this game is still a lot of fun and I'm glad I got it. I'll definitely have to keep my eyes open for when other games become free.

Titanfall

This game is SO MUCH FUN!!! I've been playing all morning since I woke up and the servers actually let me join. I had thought that it might take a bit to get used to since I'm so used to Halo and Battlefield but this game is so easy to learn and get into. It's not at all difficult to figure out the controls and the short tutorial at the beginning teaches you anything you'd want to know. And piloting a Titan is freaking awesome. I'm having so much fun with this game.

The Elder Scrolls Online

So, I finally was able to jump onto the TESO beta this past weekend. I've missed all the others since I kept forgeting they were going on. I must say that hearing things about the game was both exciting and a bit worrisome. I was excited about a lot of things including the typical Elder Scrolls gameplay (hack-and-slash, first person) and the ability to play with other people. I was a bit worried about how the game was going to do a hotbar for abilities or spells.

I jumped onto it and immediately fell in love. This game is amazing! It's everything I would have wanted from an Elder Scrolls MMO. The graphics are great. The gameplay is exactly as I expected. And they di th hotbar in a way that isn't a typical MMO style and works perfectly for the Elder Scrolls.

There were some bugs I encountered with some conversations and quests but the game is still in beta and I can't wait to play it next month.

Xbox One

I got an Xbox One about three weeks ago and I must say, I'm really loving it. I connected my cable box up to it and it's so much easier to do things with instead of having to constantly switch from the cable to the Blu-Ray player when I want to watch movies. Now it's just, "Xbox, watch TV" and "Xbox watch Blu-Ray." It's great.

I only have two games for it right now, Forza Motorsport 5 and Battlefield 4 but I've only played Forza so far. The only Forza game I've ever had was Forza 2 for 360 and I must say, there are things I like and don't like about this new version. There's definitely a learning curve when it comes to the handling in Forza 5. Forza 2 was simple with the control and turns were really easy going fast. Now, it's much more realistic (which is a good thing) and you have to really slow down to go into a turn. Also, Forza 5 has my favorite car, the Dodge Challenger.

I haven't been able to play Battlefield yet since it had to update a lot but I'm hoping to be able to play soon. I loved Battlefield 3 so I'm excited to play this new one.

I also preordered Titanfall and Destiny. I missed the Titanfall beta by one day so I wasn't able to play it but I'm really excited to jump in after I pick up the game. And I've been looking forward to Destiny for over a year so I'm expecting that to be great.

All in all though, I love the Xbox One (I refuse to call it the Xbone) and I do recommend it if you're looking for an all in one entertainment system.

Inactivity

So, I haven't posted anything on this in forever since I've been on my other tumblr account but I'm going to try harder to post on this one. A lot has happened since my last post so there's a lot to fill in.

Sharing a hobby is a great way to bond. And nothing wrong starting them early.

I really wish I had someone to play GTA Online with.

Okay, if I had one of these I would seriously not leave the house without my Xbox. And since I have my phone as a wireless hotspot, I would totally go anywhere and still play online.

Jerks on Hoth

So, the other night I was playing Star Wars: The Old Republic and I was just doing some questing on Hoth for my Sith Inquisitor character. I usually don't pay attention to the chat in that game unless I need to for groups. But apparently there were quite a few girls on Hoth at the time. So, as I was questing, one jerk (I can't remember his name) decided to start bothering the girls. He was saying the usual things about making sandwiches and other degrading things. The comments were mostly directed at someone named Aphrodite and she decided to retort. She was saying things about having him work for her and have to take orders from her and basically just shut down the jerk. I just thought it was awesome how she totally shut him down.

Not going to lie, this armor looks awesome.

I just realized, I haven't played Battlefield 3 in a very long time. I should probably put it in and start it up. Then again, I'm too lazy to. I'm so game negligent.
