Lot of game playing

First, I found this while looking up some episodes for Family Guy. If the link doesn't work (direct linking seems to have problems), then just type in the site's search bar, "Family Guy vs American Dad." It's a pretty crappy game of, you guessed it, Family Guy vs American Dad. It takes on a street fighter spoof, except bad programming and slow computers ruin the game. I was able to defeat people by just holding down a button (except if you play as Chris Griffin, but he's a specialty type character). Also, the final battle is against Ryu of street fighter. I didn't get to battle him because for some reason he never showed up on the screen, so I was forced to quit every time I made it to the final stage.  It could have been just my computer though, as I played on my old tower computer since this laptop overheated when I tried to play. I played as Meg first since... *gasp* I actually like Meg on the show.

If Meg was real, she'd probably look like that, though slightly less heavy.

Meg's character was simple, just use her hailstorm attack and stay back. Only Chris gave her some trouble because he only has one attack which really really hurts! Everything else he does is self-inflicting or just leaves him open. It was sort of fun, but got really boring really fast. When you beat peter, he does the leg holding thing where he groans for about a minute which feels like forever. Some victory poses also take forever too. Besides that, the game is interesting enough to try for a little. I'd only play it if bored... which I was.

Speaking of bored, I've been playing Neopets's games out of boredom. Yes, the site itself is stupid, but the games can be sort of fun. I like to build up about 20k neopoints  in normal flash games then blow it on the chance games, like the slots. Like mentioned in my vacation post, the slots are one of my favorite ways to gamble, and since neopoints don't really cost me anything, it's a way to harmlessly get my gambling itch out. Plus, I once got a trophy for hitting the jackpot in one of the games, which was pretty cool. Right now I been playing the neopets version of minesweeper, Negg Sweeper. I like logic puzzles and using process of elimination, which makes it perfect for me. I know I could just play my computer version of minesweeper, but it feels more accomplishing when you get something for winning.

Speaking of logic puzzles, another form of game I been playing have been this online website, Puzzles.com (Logic section). It feels good to exercise my noggin since I'm not in school anymore and... not really doing much while waiting for calls back from jobs I applied to, and looking for others to apply for. Some of them got really annoying for me, however, as after you get so far, you have to really try to interpret the wording a certain way... which I am not always able to do, so I just make a guess. Annoying, but still feels nice to do every now and then. Completed about 5 of the logic puzzles so far.

I stumbled upon the site when searching for logic problems, as n the subject where they have symbols and special formulas to follow to find if somethign is true or not. I took a Logic class in college and really fell in love with it. Haven't done any of those sort of problems in awhile, however, so wanted to try to find something like it. No luck so far, but I got plenty of distractions, heh.

Hope the link dumping provides some entertainment to the bored here!

  1. LOL, I remember Neopets. I used to play that all the time, just because the games were fun. I even played for a while last year. My favorite one was the Snakes knock-off...Meerca Chase or something like that.
