You didn't play much this weekend, but I've been binge watching the second season of Dark Winds and rewatched Late Night With the Devil, which has been one of the best horror movies of the Year.

I finished up Tomb Raider 2013. What a fantastic adventure game that sometimes outdoes Uncharted in the spectacle. My absolute favorite moment is when Lara gets a grenade launcher and threatens to come after and kill everyone. The pirates know they fucked up. So good.

Well now, Mudrunner took me 60 hrs to do everything.

I'm currently at 160 hours into Snowrunner. Done all the tasks, opened all the available levels and watchtowers. Ploughing my way through the contracts. The contracts are super long, multi map missions, and it's highlighting my only real problem with the game.

Some areas don't have garages. There are 12 areas, 6 of them don't have garages.

So when doing a multi map mission you face a long, sometimes painful drive to the area you need to go to, only to run out of petrol, or for your truck to tip over.

Normally you would recover your vehicle to the garage on the same map. Or send out another truck from the garage to repair or refuel your truck that's in trouble.

But because there's no garage on a particular map you have to load back into a different map, get a vehicle from that garage, then face another buttbnumbing, pain inducing drive back to the map where your truck in distress is.

It's manifesting itself particularly on Smithville Dam, getting back to either Island lake or Drummond island has become a chore.

I drove two trucks over to do a mission, then I had to drive two different trucks over tonfix something. Then one truck drained its gas tank whilst in a narrow rock corridor. So I couldn't drive up to it as my other truck to refuel it.

Now I have to make another butt numbing trip back to Drummond island.

This is partly why my playtime is over 160 hours. The game needs a garagenon each map, its getting ridiculous.

I'm so out of the loop on movies, I didn't even know Furiosa was a thing. I had to look it up. I really enjoyed Fury Road.

I was not prepared for how good Fury Road was.

Thanks guys, I didn't want to delete your posts without your consent.

I haven't reported it yet. I found the video footage and the number plate isn't on the front of the vehicle and the guy is wearing a black helmet. So I doubt they can identify them. The insurer says because its a crime and the other vehicle wasn't involved, there is no one to claim against.

So I have to pay the excess on my policy, lose my no claims and have my insurance go up next year.

This year cost $1800 already despite having 3 years no claims. Insurance is a scam.

Good thing Raven did your dirty work.  My right of free speach has been severly impeded by this onesided termination of my opinion and valuable contributions.  I also suspect Raven of tampering with my memory, as I seemingly can't recall if I did or did not comment on your story.  Nyaa

Yes they are.  I've had some issues over the last 2 years and it's very clear that all they care about is quickly paying as little money as possible.

GG you have a high enough rank you can delete your own posts. I miss one day I miss the drama Nyaa

Driving around Australia right guys. Still working 3 hours a day, so it's not a real vacation, but it is stimulating seeing a new part of the country.

I went to Foolz' City and left the day he landed back in Australia. What a asshole I am, but it's just the way it worked out (family runs your life, not you once you have one).

Okay, so on the next podcast I am going to ask him this question, but I'd love to hear your views on this:

"There is some merit that some games garner more cultural relevance they longer they run and some games don’t really “Start” at their first release.

Of these franchises, to you which is the “first” relevant entry in the series:

Final Fantasy

GTA

Assassins Creed

Call of Duty

Doom

Super Mario Bros

Zelda

Tekken

Fallout

Elder Scrolls

Max Payne

Halo"

Add your own series to this list.

Looked at my collection last night. I bet if I completely stopped buying games today, it would take me 10+ years finish my backlog. Sad

I’m glad I’m not the only one. Will be adding another one to the pile when I buy Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door for the Switch in the next 9 days. LOL
