Watched a movie, visited a few Xbox One games, watched my friend play Battlefield 1, played a PS4 game, and watched another movie while played my PS4 game. Further details follow. 

I watched Avengers Age of Ultron today and played Banner Saga and Dragon's Crown Pro. 

I finished my Halo book and starting another one. I decided my favorite car in Forza Horizon 4 isn't the BMW X5 suv but the Porche Cayenne suv. And I attempted to replay all of Banner Saga 1. 

It looks like an arcade cabinet but it's just cardboard. 

I did the weekly challenge in Forza Horizon 4. There are also daily challenges, but I largely ignore those since I don't play every day. For the weekly, you are tasked with four challenges using the car they ask you to drive. For doing it, you win credits you can spend on special Horizon Edition cars, clothing or wheel spins (random rewards). The rewards are in a special store and use the currency you can only get through these challenges and periodically occuring Forzathons, which are multiplayer challenges that take place at different locations on the map. It's fun. I'll do it every Thursday when they drop, I think. 

Atari Flashback Classics Vol. 3 is MIA at Gamestop and everywhere else at the moment, so I'm still waiting. I played Banner Saga 1 for a while and then saw my friend Mark playing Victor Vran (a Games with Gold freebee recently) and saw a Diablo III look-a-like. How could I resist that? I switched, and we both played it the rest of the time. 

I'm down to four achievements I can't make any headway on, so I'm quitting until December's DLC drops. 

So, I'm playing Banner Saga 3, and I get cheated out of a win, yet again, by this game. Twice during a battle I'm not allowed to make the attack I want because of some technicality I wasn't aware of. Do I have to read a book to figure this game out? Well, I'm out. I quit. 

I knocked off a few more achievements today. It looks like I'm nearly done for the time being until the big DLC drops in December. Here's a breakdown. 

I preordered Atari Flashback Classics Volume 3 today at Gamestop. It comes out on Friday. Weird how they don't announce anything in advance for this game. But I'm thrilled to get it so soon. I also picked up Culdcept Revolt for 3DS again because it dipped below $20. I've played it before, but I wanted it in my collection. The game's AI frustrates the heck out of me, but I love the basic gameplay of the game so much, I'll play it again anyway. Here's a pic.
