My Time Away

How are you all? There has been a lot I want to blog about but the time I have I usually use to play games. I have been working six days a week with Sundays off and its a regular thing. It sucks not having full weekends off but its paying the bills. I have gone through some major arguments were it seemed like we were actually getting a divorce. It is almost been to the point of me not caring anymore. Things are ok now though.

I haven't had a phone in a long time and contemplating getting the iphone 6. I have to save a bit of money and or wait for my severance pay that I STILL haven't got yet. It is annoying me that I haven't yet received the money yet. As for phones, I contemplated getting the LG G3. It has impressive reviews from everyone and seems to edge even the Galaxy S5. I am not sure. While I am a hater of mobile games, I am willing to dabble in it a bit if I get a phone again.

Also for expenses which might make me hold back on getting a phone, I plan on getting the new Turtlebeach headset that are noise cancelling. That is 299.99 right there. They are the Elite 800. The reason being, my wife through an argument threw my headset and broke them. That headset when I originally bought them cost me 249.99. Not cheap either.

As for gaming, I had been playing Rogue Legacy before work and during lunch on my Vita. I played some of Velocity 2X but haven't gone back to it for awhile. I am enjoying Destiny a lot. I think the game is better than what most scores give it but think it definitely didn't live up to the hype but enjoy it a lot more than Titanfall. I am more excited for Advanced Warfare because I feel its fast paced multiplayer makes me feel like it will be more similar to Destiny than Titanfall. That might seem odd but there is more depth and abilities in Destiny with that speed than what Titanfall offers.

Lastly, there is a lot of games I am excited about for this year. I have ten pre-ordered paid in full but unlike any time in the past, I have to skip over some titles. I am afraid I can't get Alien Isolation when its first released or Smash Bros on the 3DS. I do have Far Cry 4, Sunset Overdrive, and Dragon Age Inquistion pre-ordered for the rest of the year. I still want Assassin's Creed Unity, The Crew, Freedom Wars, and others. I though have been preparing more for 2015 since its a year of ridiculous amount of major titles. This year is pale in comparison to what next year is bringing.

Well that is all from me for now. I been excited for not just those AAA titles but many indie titles as well. The thing is those titles have very sketchy release dates but sometimes its announced release date pops up with a short wait which always is a nice surprise. I have money waiting in my PSN Wallet and XBL account for those titles to hit. That is all from me for now. I will try my best to be around more but at this moment, its time for some Destiny.

"Time Away" sounds like it wasn't time away at all for you. Glad you've maintained your cash flow, relationship, and ... sanity?

Nice to hear from you again. I figured with all the new games releasing this fall, you'd come back to post about new games. I'm glad to hear someone liked Destiny. Wave that banner mate! Sucks about your headphones. Happy wife, happy life! That's what John Cena said or something?

You got me thinking about preorders now. I've got to look at the upcoming games list. I know there's a 3DS strategy game coming early 2015 that I want. . . Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. that's it.

hey sorry things have been crazy.  sounds like they're settling down now though.  I guess life can be like that sometimes.  

I want to buy new surround headphones myself, but might wait a while.  I love playing games with headphones on, much better than with speakers IMO.

I'm trying to get my boss to get me a G3 for "evaluation" purposes. :)

My work phone is a Galaxy S4 at the moment and I love it.

Sad to hear you went through some rough times.  Marriage is work.  It's a lot of communication and sacrifices.  Keeping everything balanced in that sweet spot is the trick.  If you can't, then marriage is stressful.  When you get to the point where you think you can't do it anymore..., try again.

Sorry about the money problems,bro. Doubly sorry you and your wife have gotten into some serious fights. I really hope things improve soon. At the very least you seem to have a varied and full palette of gaming to choose from in your not so distance future!Wink
