Super Crimboman Crimbo Type

I'm working on the new Crimbo content right now. Figure I'd give the answers to the giant robot fight, which I have to say has some pretty amazing writing. If you'd rather figure out the solution yourself though, that's fine too. This just helps for those of you who haven't finished collecting all the plastic ingots and electrical thingamabobs so you don't have to waste any adventures trying to figure out what to do.

Holiday Backlog - Pre-2013

Merry Christmas!

It's the holiday season again, and although I haven't been able to cover all the holiday events that's been going on in several online games I play, I hope everyone is able to get what they want to achieve in them. Considering it's been a while since I've last done a Backlog, with new games to add to the list once again, I decided I should sort out this list to make it easier to see what games I need to work on, what I have available, and what I've finished that I haven't reviewed yet.

Not the most interesting post for my readers probably, but it helps me out a lot to do this. I'm sorry I couldn't do something bigger for Christmas though. >_> Plans have been falling through an awful lot when it came down to relying on others to helping me. Hopefully I can get the help I want when the time comes, or that I get plenty of time and inspiration to work on what I want done by myself.

Merry Christmas!

Christmas is such a fun time. Getting together with family and friends and opening presents, and hang out with all our new stuff. o_o Cause that's what I totally did on Christmas. And of course, I thought it was appropriate for me to list all the new stuff I got this year, starting with things that weren't on my wishlist, followed by things that were on my wishlist, and... some more lists on the way on my blog after this post.

Steam - The Great Gift Pile

I... wanted to talk about Steam's big Holiday sale event that I was looking forward to, now that it's finally here, but, as I type this up, seems like the amount of traffic that they were getting crashed the server or something.

Anyway, it's a similar event like the Summer Camp event we had during the summer this year, and the other event like that last year, which I don't quite remember in detail now, but had lots of fun buying games at great discounts and getting custom achievements for this event that unlocks more content for you and such. I think it was the Great Treasure Hunt or something, and I managed to get the Treasure Hat on Team Fortress 2.

Not sure if there's any DLC or hats this time around with this event, but the grand prize for the Great Gift Pile seems to be ALL THE GAMES ON STEAM. >_>;;; No one's ever going to be able to play through all of the games that Steam has to offer... LoL. Other winners will win games in their wishlist, or the Valve Complete Pack it seems. Whichever the case, why say no to free games? You may even find a game you want at the best discount prices you'll see on Steam for a good, long time too, most likely. We're talking lots of 50%, 75%, and 90% off discount prices. Mostly 75% off, from what I'm seeing. You should just check it out if you're interested in some PC games... if the site will work for you. x_o;

More Holiday Activities, Finally!

Halfway into the month, and we finally get other games starting their holiday events. This time, Team Fortress 2 has an update with new items for Pyro and Engineer, as well as having Double Drop Rate week as well! Guild Wars is also starting their Wintersday event today as well. And Terraria's version 1.1.1 update is live as well, with some bug fixes from the huge 1.1 update and yet another new biome, Snow. =O

I don't have too many details myself on any of these events at the moment, other than what is already given on the pages provided above. I'll be sure to post about anything in detail when I get to the events myself.

Blog Revelation

It sure is hard to keep up with blogging when you're too busy spending time doing.. well, other things. So far, it's only Kingdom of Loathing and Terraria too. Surprised I haven't heard much from the other games for a holiday event, although maybe I'm just missing the news somehow. Anyway, I just thought I should talk a little bit about the blog today. How it's changed a lot from what I have originally thought of, and what sort of things end up getting on the blog... as well as a bit of stuff from KoL and Terraria too, while I'm at it.

Holiday Activities Unleashed

Well, it's December 1st now, and things are starting to look festive with events going on at many places. Starting with Kingdom of Loathing with a new location to adventure in, Lollipop Forest, found in your Advent Calendar, somehow. Also, Terraria's biggest update yet, version 1.1 was just released. On top of that, the game is on a "legitimate" 75% off discount for the first time, for $2.50 a copy on Steam, only for today. If you haven't read my Review for Terraria yet, I'd highly recommend you to. If you have, well, here's a list of all the updates in version 1.1 as well, so you know what more the game has to offer now. Also, poll results!
