I guess I don't have one game I'm totally obsessed with right now, so it's jumping around a lot from game to game. This will change on Nov 5 (I think) when Forza Horizon 5 drops. 

This week it's clearly Halloween-style games on Game Pass rewards. I recall now that I've played a lot of horror games chasing rewards points over the year. I realized it when I got into a conversation with a Gamestop salesman and knew every game he, a horror game fan, was talking about. I did, at times, have some trouble differentiating one from another. It's what happens when you play a dozen or so games but just an hour or two each. I would probably play very few horror games if it weren't for Game Pass rewards quests. It's not my favorite genre. 

Again I'll break it down between games played for Xbox Game Pass/MS rewards and my own choices. All Xbox One this week. Wish I could mix it up more with the other console makers, but I only have room for two systems up at once at my friend's place and right now it's Xbox One and Xbox 360. 

I guess my playing breaks down into two parts. One is stuff I play for rewards points and two is stuff I play for my own interests. So I'll group these that way. 

On Friday my friend and I took a trip to York, PA to go to Timeline Arcade. York is about 2 hours west of where I am. I only know this town because it's the hometown of the band Live who had some hit songs in the 90s like "Lightning Strikes". The arcade is right in the center of town near the courthouse. I accidently forgot to photograph the facade, but I got a lot of shots of the arcade cabinets and pinball machines I played. 

I just love chasin' MS rewards points and Game Pass rewards points for online MS bucks at the end of every month. $10 bucks worth. I usually do that before joining my friend in playing whatever he's playing, which right now it nothing but Minecraft. I also played during the Eagles football game while my friend watched it. I've totally lost my emotion for live sports. I'd rather play Undertale. 

...after a very long time. I mainly did it to play Pinball Hall of Fame: Williams Collection but I also pulled out a few others from my collection too. Luckily the Xbox app on my phone records what you played on Xbox Series X, Xbox One and Xbox 360 so I can remember what I played last weekend. I expected sign-in problems on 360 but, other than updating my network data, it was no problem. 

Let's see what recent games I played on Xbox One from the Xbox phone app, cause gosh knows, I can't remember. 

Today the flooding shut down work so I played. I caught up with my general and Game Pass rewards quests, bought a new game, and dove back into Minecraft for a bit. 

I'm really trying to play more stuff but Minecraft has my soul at the moment. Mark and I are just playing it like there was no other game in the world. What can I do? It's endlessly interesting. However, I did squeeze in one other game this weekend.
