Gaming Systems FAQ

People have been asking me quite often certain gaming console questions and I am writing this entry to hopefully answer those questions.

Which Console(s) / Handheld(s) do you play on?

I own a lot of older systems to the current ones growing up, things aren't free anymore unlike when I was a child. So I have to be careful on what I spend on. And years pass by, more systems appear so I have to be picky. I do not own a Xbox 360 but I have nothing against the 360. People all have their preferences in videogames and for me Playstation always has the selection in my preference. (Bigger choices in imports too.) As of recent Wii U came out but I don't plan on owning it any time soon. (unless a new Harvest Moon appears... or Xenoblade then yes. Must find deal lol. )

So current systems I do play on are. (Not counting older systems that I still own.)
Playstation 3
Nintendo 3DS
Playstation Vita

Do you play online? 

I play a lot of games in my lifetime bu, I'm actually not big on online play. Co-ops sound fun when I can do it. I just don't have that much time to play games sometimes, so when I weigh out what to do, I usually play through games than doing online. It could be how shy I am personally too. And for playing against others, my non competitive soul is the same for this lol. I just don't see the point if I'm not that aggressive against others. To the computer, it's a different story rar.

Do you plan on getting PS4 or Xbox One?

As mentioned above, when I have to choose one.... I will choose PS4, but I probably won't be getting it right away. I am awaiting for a few game releases. When those come out, then ok, let's go! (Gives me enough time to save money too!) 

Do you play on PC?

I have a steam account, but I have 0 real games on it because I usually don't use my computer to play games. I've been use to using my computer for production than gaming. Not that I mind if I had games on there to play, I'd totally do it if I did. I might get into one day but for now the only games I do play on my computer would be MMOs which are very lightly played too just due to being busy.

I guess I also have a thing where I like to own a physical copy of the game.. haha. Virtual copies still don't come in my favor.

Final Thoughts

As I always list LE/CE things I collect. I am not a big spender and I spend smart or wait for deals. If there is a way around saving money I end up doing that. I do that with a lot of things and not just gaming haha. I really love gaming and I never see myself stopping, ever. I hope this answered a few things people always had questions of, it's just my nature to split time to play videogames. I just can't spend all the time on it sadly. Even though collectively I do spend a lot of time on it haha. It just doesn't work in favor sometimes with playing with others so I apologize. If I figure out Co-ops and time to do that, I would totally be down for it.

I try to share and talk about what I like when I can. So thank you everyone for always sticking with my short talks. <3

[Open Box] Saints Row IV : Super Dangerous Wub Wub Edition


I got my hands on my Saints Row IV edition on the release day!! There was a delay uploading this because I couldn't help it but play A LOT... (and time passes by...) Anyways, this box is HUGE. It's 14'' tall, 10.5'' wide and 4'' deep. 

Within this edition, there's the Dub step gun (battery included) which is about 12'' long. 8'' tall Johnny Gat Memorial Statue Figure and 3'' tall Dub step Doomsday Button with a Saints Key to unlock it. This edition also includes special DLCs.

The sound playback on the Button is a bit too loud imo if you don't have it placed on a table. The key switch and all the details on it though are neat.

The Dub Step gun has a great playback with sound. I LOVE IT and can't stop messing with it. The lasers and lights are fun and it's a very nicely made piece. I am going to take this with me now when I cosplay Saints Row at the upcoming conventions! <3 

Johnny Gat Statue has a big of weight in it at the base, so it feels legit. The craftsmanship on it is pretty outstanding and you can hardly tell the seams of the casting for the statue. I'm enjoying this piece as well in my display case! 

All of this for $100? Yeah, THIS IS WORTH IT. The game itself is around $50-60 and all of this included, I felt that I have gotten quite the deal. If collectorss items aren't your thing, you could just get the game because that itself right now is worth it's base price. 

My first impression so far for Saints Row IV is so much loltastic things but also a much more impressive game play overall. I really love ALL the trolling they have done so far too, I won't spoil too much but it is a must buy for all those who are fans of certain "create your own character" "space" story. 


































Thank you for viewing! Please do check out Saints Row IV! 
I bought my copy at GameStop, but you can check around for your own copy!

[Otome] MOTEMOTE Mobile Dating Game for Girls Review


This game is free to play on Android and can be downloaded through google play. I have to say, I've only completed one route because I can't really stand the other two characters (I'm not attracted to perfect student meganes and the childhood friend is too aggressive for me). I would recommended it if you are interested in trying a free Otome game. (Doesn't have the annoying wait times or paid chapters.)

But if you are picky for correct grammar throughout or a very deep story. This isn't for you, because the english translation is pretty poor in spelling and grammar at times haha. It's pretty short and sweet other than that. I had fun even though the characters are mostly not my types. I still enjoyed Syo's route. The ending was really cute.

Characters
 
 He's your typical perfection student who is nice but also smart. He is President of the class while you are Vice President. He is very calm except when someone comes into the picture with you, namely Santa.
 He's the typical childhood friend with anger management issues. He gets over protective and gets really upset very fast either at you or someone who is getting too close to you. But he's always been around for you since you grew up so you deal with it.
 Syo is the boy who randomly you bump into on the street and falls in love with you right off. Coincidentally the next day he attends the same school as you do as a transfer student. He plays off as your friend and hints off even more because once he set his eyes on you, he wasn't going to look anywhere else. He's playful, a little selfish but a pure teasing flirt in the end who trolls the other two.
 
Story
Basically the story goes as two guys in your school life are nuts over you in their own way. They both want you to be their girlfriend and can't stand each others presence. You either calm them down or get mad at the both of them because they are your friends. As the story goes, you end up meeting someone who gets added to this equation, the only thing is that he doesn't only like you right off the bat, he pisses off the two of them more than anything else.

When it comes down to it, you are suppose to sway to your favorite's side and choose your boyfriend in the end. (There is a lot of arguing and fights in this game with the characters. It got annoying after a little but due to it being short, it wasn't that bad. Syo's route was pretty fun though. I really didn't enjoy being in the triangle that was Santa and Yusuke.)  

Syo's Scenario Highlight

Thank you for reading everyone! 

All experiences are my own opinion for every game I play. Not everyone is like me so please do not take my opinions as an offense but as a point of view.

[Open Box] Tales of Xilla Collector's Edition

Excited! Picked this up on the release day from GameStop! It's a big 10.5' tall box. The front flap opens displaying information and art about the game. I mostly took photos of the items inside haha. 

I would say that the figure is a high quality prize figure. It won't compare to the quality of the Alter figure but it's still a pretty catch.

Artbook and CD are always lovely + the DLC outfit extras. In all this costs $100.

I would say if you are aren't a picky figure person, especially knowing the Alter one is almost 80-100 alone so you shouldn't compare that. It's a pretty good buy. I'm satisfied!
