Birthday Dinner & E3 stuff
Jun. 12th, 2017 10:29 am My mom decided to have my birthday dinner yesterday evening at Olive Garden after I'd gotten off work. We got there around 6pm, and everybody was already there mostly. It was super crowded which made a little anxious. While we waited for a table I checked twitter for E3 updates since it already started. We were seated soon after, and my niece Shelbi was unusually quiet for some reason. My sister mentioned it was because she wasn't a fan of pasta, and she didn't know what to get. We talked a bit about movies. My mom, and I had just seen Wonder Woman, and recently Get Out so we talked about those movies.
The food finally came, and we ate. My food was pretty good, but Shelbi wasn't too happy with hers because some of her food was cold. She kept trying to get the waiter's attention, but he kept forgetting her salad dressing, and extra cheese. To be fair it was really crowded so he probably had a bunch of tables to wait. My sister mentioned an activity her, and her friends had recently done in which they went to a hotel played a game that was sort of like "Clue" in which you had to guess who the killer was. It sounded super fun actually. Apparently there were actors there, and they didn't know which people were actors so it played out like a live game of Clue. We also talked about our upcoming trip to Panama that's coming up. I'm really looking forward to that. After that we paid for the dinner, and stood outside for a while and talked after my sister's boyfriend showed up to wish me a happy birthday. Since I'd been to work that day I was really exhausted. My sister gave me a $25 gift card to Target so mom, and I decided to make a trip to Target before we went home. I picked up a shirt for my dad for father's day, a cute Mario/Yoshi shirt for myself, and PS4 dual controller charger.
Now for E3 roundups. The only panel I watched so far was Microsoft's panel talking about their new system coming out (XBox One X I believeit's called.) They also talked about a bunch of exclusives for the system. These are the games that I thought were interesting so far. I think a lot of these are timed exclusives? That's what I keep hearing anyway. I'm mostly waiting for Sony's panel at 5pm today, and Nintendo's panel tomorrow. I'm super hyped for any Nintendo Switch releases. At first I wasn't too sure about all the Wii U ports being put on the Switch, but honestly more games is always a good thing. I've never owned an Xbox system so I'm not sold on the Xbox One X tbh. I've considered buying one of the older systems in the future though because of Half-Life 2, Halo, and a few other franchises that I've never played. I'm really looking forward to seeing sony's exclusive announcements like maybe The Last of Us 2 since I really loved the first game. We'll see what happens. :D
I just watched Ubisoft, and Sony's conferences, and honestly Sony's was pretty lackluster. Ubisoft actually had a lot of solid releases lined up this year. Sony on the other hand only had 1 new game release for 2017 which was really a let down. Their biggest titles down come out until 2018. Needless to say these are the games that seem really interesting so far.
