Gaming Updates!

           As you know I've gotten a ton of video games lately and I mean a ton of video games! Here are some of the updates:

Inzoi- This sim like game is so much fun and the fact you can literally control the sim's movement with your keys, makes this game a lot more fun.  Things are progressing well, I only seem to play with Larry but I may pop up more but really enjoying it and it seems more lifelike of a game.  

Storage Hunter: I really enjoyed TMartn2 playthrough and Larry and I finally got to play it despite the tech issues with the code and having to buy another set of codes cause of problems with Game Stop. Anyways we successfully did our first storage auction and going to start grinding on this game on my extra time especially days off. 

Schedule1: I started to play it a tad bit and I got a little too goofy and ended up punching people randomly to the point they called the cops on me in the game but still need to learn the different recipes in the game to make the products.

Office Simulator: Another game I just stumbled upon through YouTube, forget what channel but it looked so fun so I tried it out and I want to do so much more with the game and get off being an intern so I am excited to continue.

           So that is where I am at with the gaming world, I know this community isn't really driven to gaming anymore but I wanted to do a bit of a review and update on each of the game and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

24 Hours of Fun w/ Larry!

          It will be a crazy 24 hours with Larry! Today we will be making history as we attempt to record 7 episodes of The CBOTW Show and we will be trying to keep it at 20 minutes each which will be 140 minutes of podcasting which is like over 2 hours of show coverage and will be ready for when I am away on holidays. I am having a bit of an idea and by the later half of the week as I will be talking a lot of events this weekend from the Bowmanville Maple Fest to the Doors Open Oshawa.  Anyways off topic. 

           Between our recording sessions, we will be watching a ton of TV, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Power Rangers Zeo, Turbo and in Space but not just that but playing a bit of Sims 2, Inzoi, I am going to let Larry try it out, I think I got him hooked on the game, the last time we played here in the studio. I am sure there will be a lot of snow talk as usual for the two of us but it will be fun and as I promised on the update video there will be a vlog of our afternoon and evening. I'm sure it will be a long vlog of some sort. Anyways that is the blog for today and as always I will speak to you on Monday, have a great weekend!

Inzoi Video Game (First Impressions)

              Inzoi is like a different version of The Sims video game series. Larry and I played it for the first time last week and we will have his perspective next week, a week from this Sunday so stay tuned to that as I will not be on camera just him on his own which is exciting for him to do his own video. I want to see if he can do it on his own. It's a test to see how far he's come but anyways. Back to my review the game struck me watching TMartn2 on YouTube which a lot of these sims games came from his channel that inspired me to try out and so far about 90% I have been happy. 

              It is exactly like The Sims and I am not trying to compare the two but you can get into a relationship, get engaged, get married and also try for a baby, getting a job as well. Exactly like that but I don't think there are cheats on this which means you have to do the work. Also you have to make sure you get your Zoi's needs every time. Also you can literally make your Zoi on your own too which is really cool! If I was to rate the game out of 10, I would give it a 20 but we've not yet scratched the surface with the game yet. If you like The Sims, I would highly recommend and try it out. Anyways that is my review and be on the lookout for Larry's review on YouTube down the road and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Starting To Figure out Super Market Simulator!

             After such a atrocious run at Super Market Simulator, I think I figured out the issue I am having  which is I am taking too many loans out all at once. That was the biggest issues I had was spending too much on the game and not able to pay for groceries and the bills and eventually upgrading the store to make it larger then it is. I think I need to take smaller steps when building in the store. I need to slow down a bit. I think I want to expand way too fast and I've become a little clumsy. 

           However if I need to get a loan, just get one not two because it is very confusing when it comes to the loans and it is my own fault honestly. As usual I rush through things and I need to slow down and think and I've done an episode of the podcast about this topic a long time ago on Entertainment Man Podcast. Maybe I should take my own advice and slow down and think things through before I do them on the video game huh? Anyways that is today's blog post and as always, I will talk to you guys tomorrow for another blog post.

Chris

Trying out The Sims and The Sims 2 Tomorrow!

                I went ahead and bought The Sims and The Sims 2 to round out all the games as I already own 3 and 4 already. So Larry and I probably will be playing it in the afternoon after our recording sessions. I will have a double review next Monday for you guys what I thought of it and if it was worth getting. yes we are talking back in the late 90's and early 2000's when these two games released.

              I have peaked at it a tiny bit but not too much as I want Larry to show me the ropes in the game. I am not sure how to navigate in the game so I am excited for him and I to play and see the difference between 1, 2, 3 and 4 and how it's evolved over the years. So that is the post for today, little shorter then normal but I just wanted to put it out there that I got the two games and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Video Game Updates!

                Now are games I want to go back to and work on and of course some I don't want to return to.. cough... cough Grocery Store Simulator. lol. Here is my list:

Super Market Simulator: I have been playing off the streams and been trying to build up the money behind the scenes and it has been hard to really build it up. Paying for the products constantly doesn't help plus cashier plus security doing all of those it's hard and I need to get the money up on the game so I can honestly feel the stress with it. 

Fortnite: Been playing Lego forever and ready for the next adventure and beyond. Ready to go into the Winter Biomes and see what I can actually find. Luckily I have heat and cold off and I know it's a bit of cheating. Anyways.

Minecraft: I haven't really played Minecraft much. Haven't been in that creative mood to work on the office towers but it is on my priority list of things to get finished and soon and with me being able to be at my computer at longer length of times, I plan to stream a little bit more.

           There are a couple of the gaming updates and where I am at with things gaming wise and I will talk to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

Supermarket Simulator New Updates

               So far, I am enjoying the updates. However I am not too far in as I just re-started the game but I got to play around with it even with the old file with security guard and the theft alarm. To watch the security guard beat the crap out of thief is quite hilarious actually! I want to keep streaming this game just haven't had time to actually stream. This weekend I do plan on streaming on Twitch. I just need to reactivate the account again in order to do this move.

              But I like the updates and another one is the cleanliness of the store.  Always having to clean and my motto is a clean store is a happy store. I want to see how deep into the game I want to and there is several things I want to do to grow the store. I took the name I had from Grocery Store Sim which is now not being played thanks to the staff doing whatever they darn well please placing items in the wrong shelving units. However back to Supermarket Simulator, the first impressions were positive and look forward to playing it more on Twitch moving forward. That is the post for today, have a great weekend and talk to you all on Monday.

Games I Want To Play!

                 Games I want to play in the way of newer releases I have about 2 to 3 on my list. A lot of them are simulators and other are something different. Here is my list:

Indiana Jones: I've seen the game play and really amazed by the quality of the Graphics and it is literally Harrison Ford's voice in the game. 

Storage Hunters: Seen this game on some gaming YouTube channels and really love it and looks so simple to do too so I want to give it a shot on my Twitch Streams. 

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024: Still have my stick for flying and has been on the shelf over the years and played the 2010 version way back 15 years ago and suddenly lost the disk so definitely want to try it out on this updated version. Looks really cool and TMart2 has done an amazing job on his YouTube Channel.

                 Anyways those are the games I want to play and there will be reviews coming soon so stay tuned for it and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Do I Ever Do Gaming With Chris?

             Do I ever do gaming with Chris? Yes of Course. Sometimes I will pop up on Fortnite to help him with the Lego world. However now the game crashes on us both and our drivers are always up to date on my computer and his in the studio. So we haven't played for a while till we figure out the issue at hand. 

         I have been playing a ton of Minecraft with him and helping him with the towers and completing floor after floor so we can move onto other bigger projects as he wants to build an university with dorms and the buildings for classes which is a really, really cool idea and we've been talking about the build and how we want to do it too. So yes I do play games with him and enjoy doing so especially on our days off on a Sunday when he's not even planned on streaming. Will chat with you tomorrow for the end of the year in review blog.

Sara, CEO of ChrisBOnTheWeb Media.

Gotten Involved With CBOTW Minecraft Server!

                  Between the work and us getting through all the site work, I have had the time and privilege to work on the Minecraft server and been working on the towers so we can move on to other projects on  the server. The towers have been dark for many, many months almost an entire year now so he is due to  finish all of this as Chris wants to extend subway lines in two different spots on at the Winter biome and the other being in the desert biome as well. 

               So usually in the evenings I am actually on the server working away on things. Don't worry I still do the CEO role first but I have learned so much about Minecraft with the lighting and circuitry especially with the office towers. I hope when his Twitch ban is up he will stream Minecraft and yoiu might see me in the server working. Just wanted to let you know I've been helping him with the projects on the game and I will chat tomorrow.

Finished The Subway Up to the Jungle!

               I have officially made it to the jungle with the subway system we have built on our community server. It has taken us months to build it and we are not even remotely done yet. There is the line all the way to the snowy mountains where my snowy condo on the hill is. After that, it will be the end of the line for subways for now. I don't think I have any plans for expansion minus maybe the sandy biome there is one last above line that exists but that may be a long way from now with us trying to finish that line out but I think it is better as it is with it above ground. All I really need to do is just shorten the station a tad bit that's all.

             The last part that needs a lot of attention is the three office towers that is awaiting to be completed too and once these two projects are finished, we can explore a bit more then normal and do other projects that i want to do and get done and there isn't a lot more i would like to do and you never know what will come up. However that is the blog post for today and as always i will talk to you all tomorrow.

Minecraft Updates! [08-22-2024]

               So as you know I haven't been streaming Minecraft minus yesterday we were fooling around with the main hub area with a double track which can be very helpful plus an area for extra minecarts which is great and I think today if I do stream again which I think I'm going to for about an hour, I will continue to work on the subway track down that one area for sure! It looks really, really good! I am quite impressed with my skills on this. 

              Because if I was to actually continue on the line with two then it would take forever to build it around the existing tracks so this is better. The second track also serves the other line that goes to the villagers and that tall, tall tower. Also I have been actually cleared out all the trees and looks better bare now this way we can build stuff around what we have on the property line. Anyways those are the updates, I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates.

Shopping Cart Simulator or Grocery Store Simulator?

            Well now that I have actually played both Shopping Cart Simulator and Grocery Store Simulator I have found myself loving Grocery Store Simulator more then Supermarket Simulator. I dunno why but I've actually moved a lot further then Super Market Simulator but I am not knocking it because I will be back and stronger then ever. I think Grocery Store Simulator has taught me a lot when it comes to running a store. I have learned so much and I can definitely utilize that if I choose to come back to the game. 

            I may have given up on Shopping Cart Simulator but doesn't mean I'd go back to it down the road. However, I just feel like Grocery Store Simulator is better in my opinion but you guys know me, I will not give up that easily plus i cannot get my money back on this game whatsoever so it is on the long list of games I want to play on the streams during the week. Stay tuned for more updates on this. I do have one more Minecraft post but that will be tomorrow but I will talk to you all at 1 pm EST.

Finding Brotato Video Game Tough!

               I know I've done a review but after playing it for a while, it's not as easy as I think it is. I find myself stuck in the corner of the room with these things or creatures come at me and fast and the further you go the harder it is to actually beat and I do not know how many heats there is in this game but it seems like an endless amount of heats right now but the furthest I've gone is 13 heats that is where I ended the run by dying. But that is a great start for me in the game. 

              I have to just keep working at it and eventually I can beat this but I have actually unlocked some of the other characters with this game so that is most definitely good but slowly but surely. I need to get to play it on stream soon enough. I haven't had the time to do that as I have been fooling around with a house remodel on House Flipper 2. However I do find it tougher and a bit more complicated but I enjoy the game and reminds me a bit like The Binding of Isaac games. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

Brotato Video Game First Thoughts!

                   I recently been watching Dan's YouTube Channel and he was playing a game called Brotato which is a game similar to The Binding of Isaac. However there is a lot more of a selection of weapons and also armor as well. So I'd say it's a step up from Isaac but a lot different.  I like the fact that there is a bunch of different items and it is a bit of a chaotic game but I really do enjoy the game. I have gotten to 13 waves as the game goes into waves and I do not know how many waves it is till you beat the level that I am not sure on right now. 

            However this game is so much fun! Once I get into a run then the run ends I find myself wanting to do another run. You can unlock other Brotato characters as you go along and it isn't hard to unlock those actually. I would definitely give this a 10 out of 10 I recommend it if you like a game like this. Anyways shorter blog today as I have a ton of things to do today with editing the podcasts but have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday.

My Future with Minecraft?

             Well once the buildings are completed, the final subway line, the west line is finished, then I will be done with Minecraft for the foreseeable future. I'll be focusing on other games down the road. I feel like I've done everything that I have humanly can with Minecraft all together and been playing on this server for years on end. It is time to change things up with video games and the game won't be uninstalled nor the server will be deleted but I will be saving the file for the world so it is backed up in case I want to revisit it at any point.

             So once these projects are done I will be moving on from the game for a while and playing other games. There is so much you can really do on Minecraft. I've been playing this since 2012 - 2013 well over 10 years. I guess you guys can say that I am semi retired to permanently retired from the video game as I've played it too much. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all on Monday as Kelsie will be doing the usual end of the week updates.

House Flipper 2 Update!

        As you guys know I have been streaming House Flipper 2 quite a lot lately as I've been obsessed with the game lately. I have been going between renovating and cleaning houses to renovating my characters own house and the downstairs is now pretty much complete minus that darn post I need to remove but not yet unlocked the sledge hammer yet so that is currently work in progress.

         However I have been working on the next floor and removed the things I want to replace. I do have ideas for that and will be on my next gaming stream that I do and perhaps maybe this weekend in the afternoon I may pop up again for another stream. We'll see how things are in my workload, so expect the unexpected with the stream but let me know in the comments below what you think of my reno work on House Flipper 2. I think it looks good and very modern look to the house, I wish I took a picture before cause it was quite ugly looking with the birds and zebra wallpaper lol... Not kidding you neither. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Moving Minecraft World To another Server...

         I will be moving my Minecraft server so other people can join but there will be rules such as: 

1) No destroying or modifying the buildings 

2) No asking for OP's 

3) No being disrespectful in the server. 

4) Will have to be a subscriber of the server for a bit so I can trust you. (Reason behind that rule is because my base was destroyed a few times.)

          That is basically the rules and eventually I will put a gaming server once I continue to grow the channel but that will be later on but this won't be for a while and I plan on gaming streams from time to time but it will be an unscheduled stream... So basically I will have my weekly streams on Facebook and YouTube on Saturdays and times vary due to my busy, busy schedule. Anyways that is the post for today, I will as always speak to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

Gaming Updates [01-09-2024]

              I know there was a Minecraft update and I am completely finished with the game. Will not login to the server whatsoever unless I find something else to build and if I actually choose to build the underground subway westbound on the line but right now no plans. Anyways I have been playing two games the most with the occasional login on GTA 5 from time to time. But most part I am playing a bit of Estate Agent which is a real estate agent and right now I have a farm that I own at the moment and over 1 million dollars earned. However the wife doesn't want kids still so I do not know why but still working away on it and the next goal for the farm is the cows to add on top of the chickens and sheep that I have.

            The other big game I have played is Gym Simulator 24 which is buggy as heck. However I have opened the second floor as it is available now to use and as I said in the video there is a ton of bugs on the video game. I go away from the desk I teleport to the front when I need to register new people in the gym. Also the employees easily get stuck easily and I do not know why it is doing that whatsoever. So it's a bug they certainly do need to fix on the game. Also they need to add more security, cleaners and repair people as keeping the gym clean isn't easy whatsoever. Anyways that is the gaming updates and the blog for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for another blog post.

No More Minecraft?!

           For those who knew this we had a Server but apparently we cannot load nor re-install the game so right now the community server we built renders useless right now and I think I got banned from playing yet I didn't cheat, I used all the game modes in the game, creative, survival. I never once cheated the system nor used anything that I wasn't suppose to and I enjoyed playing the game and now my computer will not allow me to reinstall it whatsoever. 

            So I am going to try and get my nephew to try and get it up and running again next time he is over cause there is unfinished business and that is the two tunnel ways that haven't finished up so this way I can do other things in the process and my nephew and I have a building to blow up too that I built purposely for that reason too ha-ha so for right now I going to play my other games and any other new game reviews I will be sure to do a full review but I will talk to you all tomorrow for the "End of The Week Updates."
