I did two things today: played a heap ton of Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition, and watched Star Wars: Rogue One for the second time.

After watching an episode of Skylanders Academy on Netflix today, I got a lot of time in with Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition.

Couldn't stop thinking about the Midway Arcade Level Pack I wanted from Lego Dimensions, plus I was bored, so I went to Toys R Us hoping they still had their sale. They didn't. So I went to BestBuy around the corner. They did. I got it for $17 instead of $30. Yeah!

Played Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition all day today on XBO. I chose the Witch Doctor character because I wanted one that could conjure minions. The whole time I couldn't stop singing this old novelty song, Witch Doctor, from 1958. Check it out.

I played several turn-based strategy games today, and boy did they frustrate the heck out of me: XCOM 2 and The Banner Saga. What's the point of leveling a character just to watch him/her die in the next few battles? Mistakes are fatal in these two games.

I'm thinking of changing my approach to games. So far, my method of playing games has been largely this: play the campaign, then go for achievements. Well, I may revise that to this: decide on an attitude to take (a role to play), and play the game faithfully to that, done. No more chasing some list that dictates what is the ultimate challenge in a game.

I got back into Netflix to watch an episode of the Skylanders Academy cartoon, watched highlights from The Game Awards on youtube, and played a heck load of Doom, all on my XBO. It all worked very seemlessly without crashes, slowdowns or other issues like what was the case on Xbox 360. Online multimedia on a console has finally been fully implemented. I'm happy about that. Now, on with the details.

Pretty much played Doom all day but I stopped a few times to look at what was going on in the community section of Xbox Live. Then I played some more Darkest Dungeon.

My friend Mark just told me about this remaster of Bulletstorm coming in April. It's being published by Gearbox and will have new modes and levels. Best of all, if you preorder it, you'll get to play as Duke Nukem! They recorded all new dialog for the campaign with the voice actor John St. John, the original voice of Duke Nukem. This feature puts this in the must-play category for me and I'll be preordering it sometime closer to the release date.

Played mostly Doom today and cooled down with some Minecraft. I should've switched to PS4 and played some No Man's Sky, but I was waiting for Mark, who had to reinstall Doom, to start up again so he could try out the map I made in Snapmap mode. I was going to go back to Doom when the reinstall finished, but it never did. For some reason the last 25 GB or so slowed down to a crawl. Anywho, here's a breakdown of what I played today.
