February 2013 Entry


- February is over. I really didn't do too much in some aspects and I did a lot in other. A lot of it was spent at home in the realm of video editing. I do recall trying to explain it to some people that don't know how to edit videos and I'm not sure they understood. Bottom line, it can be a long process. You'll see where all that time was spent later in this entry.

- A friend's sister (so my friend also) opened up a new crawfish eatery on the 8th. I went on opening day and they had a rough time. Opening day woes. They did have a dragon dance ceremony since it was close to the Lunar New Year. The food is great. I've been there a few times and things are better and the food was always good. So if you're in the Houston area, go visit Crawfish Cafe next to Ocean Palace on Bellaire.

- I've actually gotten back into gaming. I think the last couple years I felt I wasn't playing games as much as I used to. Now I'm seeing myself playing more than usual whether it's actual games or demos. It's probably the influence of The Game Fanatics. Ever since being involved with them, I'm just more in tune to my gaming roots. That's a good thing.

The Cave (WiiU) is a very interesting game. 4 out of 5. A simple adventure game with a great sense of humor about people trying to get of a cave. It has great replay value as you learn why each person is in the cave to begin with. I beat the game for the first time on the 5th and then completed it 100% on the 8th. I recommend this game to anyone (it's on multiple platforms).


I forgot to mention that I beat Sonic Generations (3DS) last month. Another Sonic game I beat was Sonic & The Black Knight. 2 out of 5. The sword concept was not done well and that's the main focus of the game. I would actually say it's the worst 3D Sonic game I've played. If you skipped this game, you made a good choice.


One great moment in my gaming history happened on the 22nd. The Legend of Zelda has to be my favorite game series. There are only a few games that I haven't played and beat, but I was able to knock one off that list. I beat Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (3DS VC). That was a tough challenge, but I did it and I'm proud. I will say this, if it wasn't for the restore points that the 3DS allows, I wouldn't have been able to complete it. That just leaves 3 Zelda titles to beat and 2 are being released on the Virtual Console soon.

- So other than playing games, I'm producing and editing videos about games. Yes, The Game Fanatics Show is still going strong. We filmed and uploaded the last 3 episodes of the season this month. We ended with a bang on the PS4 announcement. We're taking a short break for now before we come back with more for season 3. Trust me, you'll want to keep track of us because...yeah, big things, yo.


Unfortunately there is a little bad news in regards to The Game Fanatics. The show I created, The Super Game Fanatics, is on hiatus. We were actually going to film 2 new episodes on the 24th, but our capture device has crapped out. We tried for hours trying to get it to work and I even tried later that same day at home just in case. It's dying out and has become useless. So until we get a new one, no new episodes. Sorry. You can always go back and watch the 3 episodes we have so far.


Thinking about it, The Game Fanatics Show alone, I've produced about 10 hours of video. If you combine The Super Game Fanatics and all the other shorter videos, it's probably close to 12 hours. That's nuts. I hope you've watched some of it.

- WingedVoX Revolution is wrapping up. There were a total of 7 main ones and now I'm showing the extras. I hope people have been watching this because this was a very big thing that happened in my life that I didn't tell a lot of people (or some had forgotten about it). There are 2 more episodes left to be released in March. After that, I'll go on break and do a photo month for April before doing another WingedVoX Adventures series. Yeah, I plan stuff out way in advance, ha. So catch up on WingedVoX Revolution when you get a chance. Most of the videos are relatively short.


- And that should be all. I did do other things other than stay cooped in my room editing and uploading and playing games so don't worry. I got out when I needed to, ha. And as usual, most of the stuff I talked about here is online. It's all for the public to see minus the personal stuff.

Thank you for reading. Be healthy, be safe, be thankful, and be loved.


Take care.
