We Rocked Springfield Like A Hurricane

Good afternoon everybody,

Last night we had the goal of finishing The Simpsons Game which we started last Saturday night, and safe to say we managed to do that, even if it took me a while to finish the various stages and the fact I had to look up the solution to beat up Ben Franklin.

Anyway, we picked up at the half way point with the Alien Invasion of Springfield and having to save Cletus from being anal probed which probably took longer than it should, but we did get a great cameo of Kelsey Grammer's Sideshow Bob. From the there the second half of the game began as The Simpsons end up in the Game Engine and need to make their way through four 'games' that are parodies of EverQuest (Marge calling herself a MILF Queen repeatedly was just awesome), Medal of Honor, Grand Theft Auto,... and whatever stereotype of Japanese games EA was trying to pull off, before going after Matt Gorening who brings in Bender and Dr Zoidberg from Futurama for help.... and then finally going to Heaven to get some answers from God.

Now it took me five and half hours to get through all that, a few deaths along the way, but it was a lot of fun. I did have a real mixed feeling about going after the collectables, and if if just ignored them I probably would have finished the entire game in one night, but it was what it was.I do admit I love the Dance Dance Revolution style battle against God with the 'wrath of God' mix of Rock You Like A Hurricane playing, it's such a silly way to take down the almighty. And of course Ralph at the end breaking the fourth wall was just classic.

Big thanks to LumiLexy for the huge raid during the stream! They were playing Luigi's Mansion over at twitch.tv/lumilexy!

Also thanks you to Largepen420 for the follow during the stream as well!

Following the stream, we sent the fun over to SheepFuzz who was playing Jackbox Party Pack 8 over at twitch.tv/sheepfuzz!

Already earned the Week One rewards for this years Overwatch's Halloween Terror Event, and picked up a couple of Plays of the Game, one as McCree and one as Tracer. We'll feature Junkenstein's Revenge alternating with Quick Play matches on Sunday night!

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 Daily Workout Session lasted 31 minutes with the following exercises: Triple Combo #2, Intemediate Combo #1 and Biceps Shape Focus Combo for an estimated calorie burn of 521 kcal. Since I work up very late today, I did not do any extra exercises.

For tonight's stream we are doing a one night play though of all three episodes of The Walking Dead: Michonne, which should easily cover the entire evening. Originally released between Season 2 and New Frontier, Michonne has no noticeable connection to the adventures of Clementine, which is probably why most people ignore it!

So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!

The Division's End Game Was Reached!

 Good morning everybody,

Last night's stream of the Division saw us finally reaching the end game, taking down Colonel Bliss and see exactly how Keener sets up all the havoc for The Division 2 (which we played last year). Big thanks to Iceman and Striker for all their help in getting to the end! The funny thing about getting to the end game was that I ended up getting downed when facing Bliss' helicopter and if Iceman didn't come to revive me I would've been KO'ed for the completion of the final mission!

But that does not mean we're done with The Division, nope there are still more collectables to find and there is quite a bit of post-game content to check into, so we'll be keeping it around for a little while to explore and just goof around. So last night was like the last 'Division' focused stream, so it'll be paired up with other things, maybe I'll pair it up with Power Rangers Battle For The Grid as I grind towards various match totals.

Of course reaching the end of the game meant there were achievements unlocked and I will now list them.

1. Medic!: Revive a team mate 20 times in co-op.
2. Last Man Standing: Eliminate the leader of the Last Man Battalion and his men in the U.N. Building.
3. The Final Curtain: Uncover the fates of Gordon Amherst and Aaron Keener.
4. Marathon: Discover ALL of the Safe Houses in Manhattan.

The rest are mostly related to collectables and messing with post-game stuff, maybe running a few missions over again but we'll see how that plays out.

And we do have some clips from last night too! Here are the direct links to a few of my favorite moments!

Twitch Clip: The brave JTF officers

Twitch Clip: Achievement: Medic!!!!

Twitch Clip: Is he losing any health from this?

Twitch Clip: Revived In Time For The Mission To Be Completed!

Of course last night's stream saw a lot of baseball talk at the end as Iceman and I got into talking about old players, what-ifs and so forth. If he didn't point out I should end the stream I would've kept it going, because we ended up diving into Mass Effect and probables for the 4th game and what would've made Mass Effect 3 better. That was a lot of fun! 

We added three games to the collection yesterday, all for the Nintendo Switch: Luigi's Mansion 3, The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and Ring Fit Adventure. Of the three, the one I probably won't stream is Ring Fit Adventure because I may not have enough room to do some exercises it may require and see the monitor clearly. 

I do not understand why people are justifying the use of Spider-Tack and other substances in Major League Baseball, when that is blatent cheating. There is an idiot named Nick Messner who is trying to justify pitchers cheating because of 'big money contracts' for those not good enough to have the talent or the skill to earn those deals out  right. Fans like that are why baseball is dying out.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout went 28 minutes, and my timing was way off to the point my Fitness Age spiked to 22... ending a pretty damn long stretch where I kept at 21. Basically it was the number of punches that came up as 'okay' which was quite a few.  The estimated calorie burn was 458 kcal. We are now up to 78 points out of 100 for the Laura's Best Friend achievement. 

Tonight's stream will star with Star Trek Online as we'll knock out the endeavor quests, then we'll switch over to New Pokemon Snap on the Switch. It should be a pretty chill stream.

ANd on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
