Finished Curse of the Moon 2. That was HARD. One particular circular platform area late in the game nearly had me pulling my hair out. Nice lineup here of the last bunch of PS4 games I cleared out. Was leaning Resident Evil remakes next but I think I'm gonna get to Ratchet and Clank instead...

Just noticed my Mario Kart on Switch is an EU copy. It's been working fine all this time but I wonder if that'll be a detriment at some point down the line (like if it gets a surprise DLC or something).

Just be aware that the Mario 3D 3-pack doesn't add anything or remake anything really. It's the same 3 games. Galaxy is very very good and probably worth it alone. Sukik hasn't had a Nintendo system since N64 so chances are Galaxy and Sunshine will be completely new to him. Maybe do a 3D Mario...

I discovered that Curse of the Moon has a "real" final boss if you play it a second time on Nightmare mode, so I went ahead and did that. The game was much tougher, especially the new final boss, but eventually I got him and really beat the game for real. Now I'm a couple levels into Curse of...

Here are my retroactive contributions: Dragon Quest 6, re-beat the final boss to take shots. Originally beat early Nov. Posted about it in other threads. Fell Seal, did the same, originally beat 11/5, posted about it in other threads. Taking a stab at Curse of the Moon 2, gonna...

Those are the main 3 I'd recommend. There's also Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury if you want a more standard Mario game (Odyssey is a little weird and open worldy). I'm not that crazy about this new Pokemon game (Diamond/Pearl remake) because of the stupid-looking POP figure character models, but...

Astro's Playroom is soooooo good. I think I 100%'d it in the early PS5 days, it was just that fun.

That's good, it's one thing I can scratch off the list. I'm 100% going to spend some time on FF14 and LOTRO but jury's out on ESO and Vanguard. I suspect Vanguard is pretty dated now too.

Man, I'm really riding SHIB into the ground. It's just below 50% of my buy-in. Actually considering capitulation now, not because I'm angry about the losses, but because at this point it's seeming increasingly pointless to stay in it when I could probably make the money back a lot quicker if I...

COTM1 done. Bloodstained trilogy has been backlogged for ages. Not sure if I'll take on COTM2 right now because it's said to be much harder, but we'll see how I'm feeling. I might jump right to Ritual or I might change course. Really wanting to knock off those old Resident Evils.

If we're counting games I beat after the thread was posted but before I joined the contest, I cleared Fell Seal and Dragon Quest 6 from the backlog before I officially joined said contest, but within the month of November. It was pretty well-documented in the threads for those games that I was...

Funny Jamie Hayter story, one of the shows I was at this year (Chicago Rampage I think), a guy in the front row was spinning a towel during the Team DMD entrance (or match). Hayter yanked the towel away from the guy and flossed her nether-regions with it (vigorously), then threw it at the guy's...

The Terror of Luclin launch day was incredibly smooth. Servers up right when they were supposed to be, didn't crash, no login issues, game worked. ...then the actual expansion was a glitch-filled mess. It took us about 3 days to complete it (besides AAs and collects/hunters of course) and...

Anyone have a gif of her eyebrow-raise in that one episode? Also I'm sure Thunder Rosa is going to win the title next and she's pretty rad, but I hope Jamie Hayter wins the title off of her and has it for a looooong time.

One of my favorite memes is when people put like a Brazzers or Blacked logo on a screenshot of something from wrestling. It's usually hilarious. I've seen a ton of things like that of AJ Lee in particular and they're always hilarious. We should bring that back.

Is EQ2 worth playing in this day and age? I've been meaning to spend some time on it (like, maybe 3-4 months) since it launched. I subbed for one month during whatever the Kunark expansion was and rolled up an Iksar Monk, got really bored by level 12 and quit. However ever since I've been...

This is why we need a Kunark-launch TLP, so those leveling zones can be a focal point for the population. Also a TSS-launch TLP for the same reason. Kunark has so many 1-50 zones that get ignored and TSS has so many 1-70 zones that get ignored by the majority of TLP players. At least Luclin...

That makes a huge difference. I get how it'd be a lot less appealing for the owner but it makes for a better store. When I was 20ish I worked at a Subway and the owner did almost nothing. The manager was this completely overworked middle-aged woman who was always stressed out beyond belief and...

Yeah I've got a TON of nostalgia for Velious. I love snow levels in games, and it came out in winter 2000 when life was super-good. Had finished high school and was taking some time off, playing Final Fantasy IX / Chrono Cross / Suikoden 2 / Grandia / Legend of Dragoon / Vagrant Story / Wild...

Droga is best for the 60-65 grind? This is the first time I've heard that I think. IIRC Grieg's End, Deep, and PoP zones themselves (PoN, PoI) are generally what's used for grinding 60-65 depending on group makeup. Have AOE classes? Deep. Have headshotters? Grieg or PoN. Have a normal group? PoI...

It's the same around here. I don't know how much of it is "business is booming" though, and suspect it has a fair amount to do with "everyone who works there is incredibly slow and incompetent". Every time I go to a MCD's, it's like hitting a ? block in Mario Kart because I never know what I'm...

Lucid is fucked, huh? That's pretty disappointing. Weird though, things usually crash AFTER I buy them, not before. I was considering getting Lucid but now I'm not so sure.

Lot of Switch games are $25 at Gamestop which is pretty shocking. I mean it's shocking to see Switch games go under $50, or at least it was before this year. Looks like these sale prices are gonna run through the 26th, so if they do another B2G1F sale (which they very likely will on the week of...

Wasn't planning to, but for $25 I went ahead and grabbed this. Reaaaaally looking forward to it

Yeah, I played DQ1 and DQ2 during my brief time working night security to help out my short-staffed friend at a college. Had absolutely nothing to do all night, decided to give them a spin. DQ3 is significantly longer and even better. I've finished the 4/5/6 phone ports now and I liked all of...

TBH that's when they're at their best, when you're playing the game with a chick. Or kids I'd assume. Probably gonna (finally) take a swing at Bloodstained this week...either that or my backlogged Resident Evils. Basically the stuff I wanted to play for Halloween and didn't have time.

It's still $25 physical, actually came here to ask if it was worth it at that price. I'll probably grab it before Christmas. Been wanting to replay these (or at least ME1) for a long time. I never got to experience any of the DLCs and I rushed through ME1 on a rental which was doing it a disservice.

DLC #2 is out today so I finally went back to play DLC #1, where you play as the Franco Columbu terminator. It's only about an hour long but man is it an absolute fanservice-fest. Good times.

Finished Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens. This was a total pain in the ass. I really liked the Lego games for the first six Episodes, and breezed through them in the past before shelving this one about halfway through it. It's been on my home screen ever since nagging at me to get back to it...

For anyone interested, I keep a running tally of every game I beat, in chronological order, and I've been doing that since I started gaming in 1993. I'm up to 930 games beaten as of today. Here's the list: Edit: I notice I've got EQ and WoW expansions listed as separate games, not sure if I...

Finished EDF 4.1 for the PS4. No trophy for beating the game, but you can see I've got the medal for beating the final level. This took FOREVER. I got it a few months ago because I like OG scary movies with alien invasions and giant insects and whatnot, and this game/series is an homage to...

Yeah, this, totally concur. Just knocked off Terminator Resistance Enhanced Edition: For whatever reason it glitched and a couple of trophies didn't pop, luckily the last one worked fine. It's a super easy game to plat but I'll have to play it again to redo those few that didn't work if I...

Jamie Hayter is the bee's knees. I know Thunder Rosa is gonna probably win the title next, and she's cool too, but I'd have Jamie Hayter be like the center of the division by 2023. I liked MJF referencing Punk constantly namedropping Britt Baker. Last week I was wondering if Adam Cole is...

I think Lucid is safe because it's an emerging company in the electric car market which is bound to see good days ahead. It's no Tesla yet but I've been hearing more and more people using the word "Lucid" in conversations about electric cars, which is anecdotal evidence but it tells me that it's...

I haven't been keeping up on Palantir lately but yeah it looks like the current dip has gone well below what it usually does. Normally the cycles have been pretty consistent. The chart looks like I bought in the last time it was low 20's (I didn't, but it sure looks like I did)

I've been eyeing Lucid and Palantir for swing-trading for this very reason. Also both are fairly "safe" in the current environment. I might try it at some point, not sure.

What happens with me is, I buy things, they immediately dive, I wait around a while sitting at -20%, after a month or two I get tired of sitting on a particular investment that's always red so as soon as it's back above where I bought in, I sell and make 2-5% or whatever. Then I miss out on the...

Yeah, I was gonna say, even when the contest is over let's keep this thread going. I have a few old things on old systems that I still have to finish. Done with Code Vein, that's my second backlogged game for the challenge. 45 hours, level 135, pretty far along with the plat so I'm certain...

Bogdanoff: "Has he sold?" Lackey: "Rajaah still refuses to sell his SHIB. We doomp it and he has not panicked." Bogdanoff: "Continue to doomp eet" Lackey: "But sir, we will lose money if we continue to doomp it" Bogdanoff: "We must destroy Rajaah. Doomp eet!"

Got Oni Bane and switched from Zweihander/Hammer to that for a while, the damage was outstanding. Got to Ornstein and Smough and lost a bunch of times so now I'm trying a halberd (Obliterator Axe Fortification) build that can dish out mega-damage. Requires skills from Queenslayer, Hephaestus...
