Played some Jet Set/Grind Radio last week. The soundtrack is so weird and epic!

So uh didn't know about this but those of you with the DLC you should probably go check out Vendrick's cloths in the room where he's shuffling around.
Also first two bosses of the DLC were surprisingly easy

Yep, you get some interesting dialogue. Make sure you have his crown and the crown of the sunken king.

Did you find the 3rd DLC boss? It's kinda hidden...and a bitch if you're on your own.

I'm just trying to kill them now. I've done all the other bosses on my own so I'm fairly determined to do this on my own.
I've been told to treat it as a PvP match and have been doing significantly better with that mindset.
And I need to go back with his crown then. I just went in with the Crown of the Sunken King

Executioner's chariot defeated. Number of Alluring skulls used: all but one. On to the Smelter Demon. I really wish I didn't have to fight all those knights on the way every time. Such a pain in the dick.

Before bed I say a little prayer, wishing that SEGA would make another sequel.

There's nothing I want to play on PC, and there's nothing cool coming out anytime soon.

EDIT:
I've been thinking about buying a PS4, but again, there's nothing worth playing and I don't want to resort to TLoU HD. It's a great and well crafted game, I am just so freaking tired of hearing about it.

Videogame hiatus maybe?

[MrNovember]

I completely approve of a video game hiatus. It's nice to have all the extra time away from video games

I would usually just farm them until they didn't come back, you rack up a solid amount of souls and the armor they drop is actually pretty great. Also if you haven't fought the Smelter Demon yet, the Gyrm Greatshield is clutch for that fight.

Yeah, there are so many things to do that aren't video games. If you don't feel like playing don't force yourself just for the sake of it!

Something about those games really feels alive. They do a great job of those "city at night" themed levels, too.
I think I like JSRF a little more overall but I love replaying both every year or two.

I'll probably do that. The ones that shoot the great arrows while you're trying to do your thing suck big time.

Edit: I just looked up that shield. I haven't gotten to the Doors of Pharros yet, mainly because I'm putting off the Shaded Woods..... because my two experiences in there so far were less than fun.

Yeah it's hella creepy but I'd always just sprint through it. The tough part is the Shaded Ruins. If the Smelter Demon does give you trouble though, he's optional so just wait til you have better gear or or are a higher level.

Yeah, nothing's been sinking in the past month. Most of my other time has gone into reading and fishing through my DVD backlog (I'm still a sucker that buy DVDs)


Eitherway,

Get on this shit.

I remember getting like 5fps with Wing Commander 2 back in the day. Even with the turbo switch on.
My PC would play the audio from a cutscene, then the video would play super fast in an attempt to synchronize.

I've started playing Project M online thru Netplay via Dolphin. It's really fun
