An Ode to my (new) Xbox 0

An Ode to my (new) Xbox

February 13 shall forever be known as the date my first real gaming companion passed away. I wrote an extensive obituary. But now, 362 days later this 9th of February (last year was a leap year, remember?) I woke up to a new baby. A giant box on my doorstep, posing as an unwanted baby. But then again, this one was wanted. I ordered this beast of a box yesterday, when I noticed a sale: a 250GB Xbox 360 slim with Halo 4, discounted from €249 to €189. Because my birthday...

WEDNESDAY’S WEEKLY [32] (Week 3, 2013) (Birthday edition)

Hey there! Time for a new Wednesday’s Weekly. I already explained why I bailed on the last two weeklies, but here’s a fresh, new one for you to enjoy, the first one of 2013! What to expect from this Weekly? Welp, some pictures of the birthday presents I got yesterday. It isn’t much, but what it lacks in quantity, it makes up in quality. At least, for me. So, let’s kick things off – after the jump.

Hi there, a little update from me, as I have not posted for a few weeks. For that, I am sorry, but I’ve been busy as hell. I have finally found the time to sit down and write this small post, as to why I haven’t posted and what has caused that. So yeah, busy. I had a few things. Let’s start New Years, which was two weeks ago. After that, I fell ill with the dreaded NORO-virus. Not something I could recommend. This lasted from the second of January,...

HOLIDAY GAME GIVEAWAY: Results 3

HOLIDAY GAME GIVEAWAY: Results

A bit later than it was supposed to be (I had contracted NORO-virus yesterday), but here it is, the results of the game giveaway. Using random.org, a website for randomly generating numbers, I created a list of numbers which I compared to your place on the list of likes (e.g. #1 is the one who first liked Felixdicit, #23 the one who last liked the page). I have yet to find a way to contact you, facebook will need a friend request which is time consuming. If you’d like to...

FELIXDICIT’s ‘X of 2012’ 0

FELIXDICIT’s ‘X of 2012’

As the clock is slowly ticking away, counting down the final moments of this year, it is time to recap 2012. What movies, what games or what albums were either very good, or very bad. As I can’t have total knowledge of everything that was released the last 366 days, I will stick with whatever I’ve seen, listened to or played. I wanted to include books to this list, but I haven’t really read any books for the purpose of entertainment; if I’d read anything at all, it would have...

7 WTFacts (Politicians)

  1. Boris Yeltsin hailed a taxi in front of the White House. In his underpants. Russians are heavy drinkers, and some of their politicians are no exception to that rule. Take Boris Yeltsin for example. Not only did he once fall over during an official war memorial ceremony because he was pissed out drunk, he did more. Once, when he was on an official visit to the White House, during Clinton’s presidency. He must have either brought his own supply of vodka, or he must have broken into the...

2013 Is Approaching…

For the fifth consecutive time, I was in charge of buying the fireworks for my housemates and me.  This is the result of that. €79.30 in total. Not really extravagant, as this amount is split among 9 people. We have a lot of simple stuff, and one giant pack for us to celebrate the beginning of 2013. I’ll try to keep all ten fingers attached.

HOLIDAY GAME GIVEAWAY 2012! (Update)

A little update on the holiday game giveaway, which is still open for new entries, as I now have all the games that are going to be given away. As a proof this is not a scam, I’ll post a screenshot of my steam inventory after the jump. As of now, just 19 people ‘like’ FELIXDICIT on Facebook, seeing as I have 13 games to give away, if you enter now you are more than likely to be given a free game!

WEDNESDAY’S WEEKLY [31] (Week 52, 2012)

After two days of filling up my stomach with delicious Christmas food, it’s now time for another weekly, for Wednesday has arrived. I made the hard decision to go back to Leiden, where unfortunately I’m currently home alone, except for our cat. But as we all know, you can’t make cats be social, they socialize only when they want to. And currently, he is too busy sleeping. In order to keep myself occupied, I’ll write another entry!
