Still playing through Peggle 2, I’m about 40 optional objectives away from completion. And it’s started, the I’ve played this level five times and can’t quite get this objective. Which is what I didn’t want to happen because the headaches started. So, I will probably be using the bug to get through the rest of them fairly soon. As mentioned previously, I did the 360 version 100% clean and hated myself for it. 2020 has been a messed up year and I really don’t care how I finish certain games and Peggle 2 is certainly one of them.
2020 has been such a messed up year that last night I finally decided to start Skyrim on Xbox One due to game pass. Now keep in mind, I actually own the Xbox 360 Legendary Edition, the Xbox One version w/steelbook, the giant three hardback set of the “Histories”, two different hardback guides, the hardback art book, the signed by the composer 4-cd soundtrack set, and I even have a freaking Skyrim blanket that I got on Gamestop clearance a while back (which my son has claimed and uses to turn his figures into “Venomized” versions of their former selves, I’m not making this up). So you would think I play the game all the time. Well I did for roughly about 3 years off and on from 2012 to 2015 on the 360.
However, I had never played the Xbox One special edition. I knew it would be a time suck, I very well knew it could be the only game I could touch for the next 6 months without batting an eye. But I did it anyway. Playing it on the Xbox One came so naturally, even after not touching it for 5 years, I could still pick locks with little to no effort. I played a Dark Elf (cause I almost always play Elves given the opportunity) and had fun getting through the first quest. And true to form, I even pick-pocketed the guy that was guiding me (hey I needed arrows!). Like I didn’t miss a step. I need to work on my sword play, but then I always stuck to stealth and arrows when I played the 360 game too.
Anyway, I could go on for days about Skyrim. You want sales, we got sales.
Actually, I already participated in the sales. Got Life is Strange complete edition and then went over to NewEgg and got codes for Sleeping Dogs, Life is Strange: Before the Storm (deluxe) and Shadow of the Tomb Raider (deluxe) since they were about 50 to 60 cents cheaper than Xbox store counterparts. Much like Skyrim, I know I’ll play Sleeping Dogs again. Life is Stranges were bought because I have the limited editions and don’t really feel like opening them up if you catch my drift. Shadow of the Tomb Raider looked fun from the gameplay video I saw. There really isn’t much from a 360 point of view as all of the titles have been on sale before which is unfortunate considering that a large portion of the BC catalog doesn’t go on sale, ever. However, be sure to take a look and hope you find something that you are wanting. Have a great Christmas Week/Happy Holidays. Enjoy.
