The future of Pedigrino Gaming, re-branding, and new content....

     Hey everyone, it has been a while since I have posted anything on this blog, but don't worry I am still here! I understand that it has been many months since I have posted anything, but that doesn't mean I have forgotten. There are several reasons for my long absence. Firstly I had to return to school after summer vacation ended. Thus, my schoolwork moved up my priority list, and unfortunately I didn't have time to update this blog. Secondly, I didn't like the direction this blog was going in. I felt as though it wasn't really going anywhere, and the content that was being produced was not up to my standards; therefore, I had to rethink where I wanted this blog to go. Thirdly, while pondering over what to do with the direction of this blog, two of my friends and I talked about and started a YouTube channel where we would release videos of our game play experiences, which brings me to this post and the future of this blog. As you may have noticed, there has been a bit of a rebranding of this blog, and it has become Pedigrino Lifestyle. This rebranding is part of the new direction that this blog will take, and so I will answer several questions concerning this blog.

Pedigrino space Agency-- Step 2

     The Pedigrino Space Agency is proud to announce the completion of step 2 of our new space program. Step 2 is the successful launch and orbit of a new Space Station core, the PSA SS 'Unity' Core, which will be expanded upon in the future. Following the success of step 2 will be step 3, the launch and orbit of a satellite which will orbit the mun, but in the meantime here are the details of step 2:

The PSA SS 'Unity' Core

The Last of Us-- The PS3 AAA hit

     I guess I will start by saying that this game has stolen countless hours from my day, but when the police come asking about the theft, I won't think twice about sending them in the other direction. The Last of Us has been dubbed an AAA hit, and I can't agree more. Yes, I know I maybe months late, but better late then never, and I am glad I finally made it to this beautifully crafted masterpiece.

Assassins Creed IV-- Games I am looking forward to

   After releasing Assassins Creed 3 not too long ago, AC4 is now right around the corner. Now I will be honest, I liked the path that Assassins Creed 3 was planned to take, but in the end the execution was disappointing. Personally, I loved the idea of the homestead, specifically where it can grow if you choose to complete missions for it, and I also enjoyed walking through the streets of the colonies. One of my favorite parts of Assassins Creed 3, also known as one of the few that was done right, was the naval combat. I loved taking the helm of my ship and, with my crew, taking out enemy ships in gripping combat on the high seas. The time period that was chosen for the setting of AC3 was the American revolution, and with this time period there was a lot of potential to make it a really good assassins versus templar arena with a rich background. Alas, AC3 did not live up to the pre-release hype it had gotten, and I believe that was mainly due to the lack of attention to the time period and the major event that occurred during this time.

Minecraft-- The classic hit

    By now I am pretty sure almost everyone in the gaming and youtube community has heard of the game Minecraft. If you have not well then you are behind on the times, Minecraft is a indie sandbox game that became an instant hit and its popularity today is not letting go. This post isn't going to be about how cool Minecraft is or what Minecraft is because I am pretty sure that enough information on Minecraft is out there. So instead I thought I would start on a new fresh map and build a nice Minecraft kingdom from the ground up; I also intend to add a story and play along with it rather than just showing me building things. Firstly, I would like to say that I am no Minecraft building genius but I know how to put blocks together to make it look somewhat like a building. So during my journey that I will share with you all I would like to get as much advice and tips on how to make my buildings look better and the story more interesting; and with that said I hope you enjoy:

Audiosurf-- Kill some time and ride your music

     Aside from gaming, I also enjoy listening to music so when I found Audiosurf I was very happy to be able to put those two together. Audiosurf is a fun way to listen to your music by making your music a fun game to play. You have a choice of characters, ranging from easy to hard, and you choose which song you want to play. After that the game automatically creates a multi-lane highway filled with various colored blocks (depending on your character) which are in sync with the music you choose. The game successfully syncs the blocks thus making intense parts of a song into intense moments on this multi-lane highway of fun and music.
