Cary’s “Best Video Games of 2013 SO FAR Awards Show!”
Wow, can you believe the year is already half over? As I always like to do this time of the year, here’s a list of my most favorite games of 2013 so far. I know that most of the top games are released at the end of the year during the Christmas season, and sometimes the games released at the beginning of the year can tend to be forgotten. So that’s why I wanted to take the time to give recognition to the best games of the first half of the year!
G.P. the GamerPuppet Unboxes Project X-Zone Limited Edition for 3DS!
Hey, G.P. the GamerPuppet here. It’s been a long time, but Cary just got the Limited Edition of Project X-Zone and is having me unbox it! Project X-Zone is a strategy action-RPG featuring characters from Namco Bandai, Capcom, and SEGA working and fighting together! It’s actually a sequel to Namco X Capcom, a Japan only PS2 game. Anyway, I’m wearing Cary’s Mega Man helmet because Mega Man X is one of the characters in the new game! Let’s take a look at all that stuff you get in the Limited Edition!
A Bravoman…Cartoon?!?
Hey, have you ever heard of Bravoman? It’s OK if you haven’t. He’s a really obscure Namco video game character. But I found out he recently got his own totally legit cartoon show. Huh? How did this happen? Usually only the most popular of popular game characters get their own show. So what’s the deal? Read on to find out.
3DS StreetPass Meetup in the North Dallas/Plano, TX Area!
There’s another 3DS StreetPass Meetup coming up for folks in the North Dallas/Plano, TX Area this next Saturday, June 29. It’ll be at the Main Event in Grapevine. You can read more info about it here. I’m hoping to be there to get some major Animal Crossing: New Leaf multiplayer going on! See you there!
Toy Review: Perplexus
I recently had the chance to sample a somewhat new puzzle toy. I had such a good time I thought I’d chime in here at GamerDad because it’s exactly the sort of thing a parent might want to foist off on their children (if they can convince themselves to put it down.) Patch Products recently shipped me two of their Perplexus line of puzzle games. They are all a 3D rolling marble puzzle contained in a clear plastic ball. Tilt the ball around to get the marble through the maze without it falling off. It makes for a nice little pastime that takes both some dexterity and a bit of thought.
Remember Me Strategy Guide (Book)
Remember Me is a new 3-D third person action game from Capcom. In the future, everyone’s memories can be bought, sold, and manipulated. Play as a female memory hunter who can go into people’s minds and steal or alter their memories. Solve the mystery of why she was arrested and had her memories swiped clean. BradyGames just published an official strategy guide that may help in case your memories need refreshing, too!

Project A-Kon 2013
This past weekend, I attended Project A-Kon with a few of my brothers. A-Kon is a long-running anime convention in the Dallas area. I did enough stuff there to consider it ‘blog-worthy’ so here are a few blurbs and pictures of the event!
