Yeah totally same vibe, now you mention it.
Put CODBLOPS2 in my launch PS3, it kills it every single time when I start the game. Works fine in late series PS3.
Of course I then had to test my launch by playing Gran Turismo 2, 4 and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit (still awesome). 4 hours later, yeah CODBLOPS still kills it.
A worthwhile investigation none-the-less. I guess I could have just popped it into the later series model.
SUPER MARIO MAKER LEVELS:
My son and I bought Nintendo Labo last Saturday. So far we've built the RC cars, which are very easy to build and great fun, especially if you have 2 sets of JoyCon so you can have 2 cars going simultaneously. Sunday we built the fishing game, and it is sublime.
The fishing game is Nintendo at its best and most daft. By the time you've built the thing, not only will you have a rather lovely and sturdy cardboard extendable fishing rod, but you will also have worked out that the whole thing does nothing at all on a mechanical level. The whole thing is just a prop to add to the immersion and sell the idea that you're fishing. The string connecting the fishing line from the 'sea' as the software refers the base that holds the Switch itself, is all smoke and mirrors. Its only purpose is to blur the line between the analogue and the digital, and it does so to great effect. It connects the fishing rod you're holding to the on screen action, where every move you make is translated wonderfully cohesively to the jiggling and tugging of your fishing line and hook. The fishing game itself is rather limited, although I could easily see this being played for many hours in our household, but the cardboard props and the simple knowledge that it's all illusion somehow elevates it.
I have high hopes still for the piano, am curious if the tamagochi like house will reach the same hights, and fear for the motorcycling, as that seems to be the most mundane and dull 'ToyCon' of the lot.
Nice. Really looking forward to this game.
This sounds like the kind of stuff I also do all the time. Totally no reason to even try it, but we do it anyways.
I bought a launch PS3 off eBay a few years ago. Worked fine for awhile, then the disc drive decided to die. Bought a replacement drive, got it working for awhile...then that shit the bed too. I just gave up at this point. Sucks though because there's no better way to play physical PS2 games.
I really hope there's some hot cowgirl sex. Country girls are just smokin'.
Cowboys usually preferred the pleasures of man on man loving.

Yum^
Tomorrows trailer better be good.
Good impressions. I hope this goes well for Nintendo, I like the fact that it is a project-based play experience for kids, that either gets them awy from "just" gaming, and for others it may be an entrance point to video gaming.
Nintendo should do what Apple did and make a bunch of these kits available for free to schools (and the Switches at a reduced price), just as an introduction to gaming for the kids comeing up.
Minecraft is a part of the sylabus at my friend's kids school.
Yeah, I've stocked up on PS2's. But the PS3FAT is a better option for HDMI alone.
Ah well...
I don't see this being of interest to schools really. There is very little creativity required, it's more akin to building a lego set. I suspect Minecraft is interesting for schools because it allows for a very visual style of learning the basics to programming. I guess you could say the same about the 'garage' part of Labo, where you can create your own programs with the Joycons, but it will be way too expensive for schools, even more so given its limited nature.
Anyhow, yesterday was a holiday here and my son woke me up asking if he could play some games. When I got up myself an hour later, he was already halfway through building the motorcycle set.
Havent been able to update much recently. Too much work.
I haven't had any first-hand experience with Labo, but I still think there might be some application for schools. When my son was in elementary school he was in a robotics program. It was all very basic, but it looks like Labo could be used in a similar, though slightly more limited way. The cost might actually be a little less though since when he was using was a combination of software and a robotics kit. In this case, the hardware is going to be a little more expensive, but the cardboard would be cheaper to maintain than the robotics kit portion.
Another Runner game?? I love the original, but the second one did not click with me at all. And this one looks very much like the 2nd, so unfortunately I can say I have no interest in this at all. Too bad.
