In between confirming I got two DOA PC parts for my new PC rather than faulty SATA ports/leads and that I stuffed up the CPU cooler mount in the most comical fashion (now all fixed with no harm done, though I've got some more tests to do today), all I've played is Sky: Children of Light and Dirt 4 with multiple-tabbed browsing and videos playing in the background for temperature testing, so not really playing it properly.
This week it will be time to really test this thing with something more demanding than Dirt 4: Quake II (and also return to DMC3).
I spent some time this weekend playing the Toki remake, Metal Slug, and Namco Museum's Rolling Thunder on Switch.
Sounds scary. Glad you got out of it without harm. More importantly, how does it run Audacity
I've bene playing Judgment on PS4 (worthy heir to Yakuza), finished Neocab on Switch and have been playing/ Uno on Switch. Reading a book about Jack Ma (Alibaba) - -I just started poking around on Alibaba -- it's a mind blower:

The quality of the fake shirts on there if you know the right seller is extraordinary.
A 60 layer Audacity file opened instantaneously.
In honor of Holloween I've been playing the classic Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain. I thought the loading times were going to annoy me but it's really not as bad as I remember. Maybe because I'm playing on PS3, idk. Anyway, the game still to this day oozes atmosphere & a sense of not wanting to stop that I rarely get from new releases. This was the Link To The Past, to Soul Reaver's Ocarina Of Time. Fucking killer.
Also continuing to trudge my way through RDR2. It's gotten better but I still don't see what the fuss is about. Is this the only new game Rockstar has made this entire generation? Maybe they're finally out of ideas. I will say, the city area is really impressive in terms of feeling like an old 1800's city out in the middle of nowhere.
And I'm still in the middle of Tomb Raider 3. This was the one where they allow you to play the missions in any order, which was a great touch. I think I didn't give this game a fair shake back in the day, because it came out at the same time as Zelda OOT, MGS & Turok 2. But in many ways this game did improve on the first two games. I also notice I remember more of this one than I did TR2, even though TR2 was my favorite. So I guess that's saying something for it. It certainly has much better visuals & more natural, less blocky environments.
GASP!
Cannot wait to finish what I am on to get to Gears 5
Thats when I browse the internet on my phone.
I tell you, I'm not sure there's ever been a franchise that has had a story that really interests me with gameplay that does not more than this one.
The ending was hype of maximum levels. It was amazing. Pure RE fan service.
Been playing Shenmue 1 and 2 in prep for the impossible dream of Shenmue 3 coming in a month!!!! What weird crazy games were they, very tedious and yet with a charm missing from most games.
It was? All I remember is running towards railings I wasn't allowed to jump over, wtf? Then lobbing a shit load of grenades at Alex. Then having the worst ever controls for firing a rocket launcher from a moving helicopter, while then cutting to rushing around as Barry. The skimpy girls costumes for the new game + feel a little out of date. I at least expected Barry in a thong to even things out.Famitsu reviews

I've been playing God of War 2018
I bought a year's subscription to Playstation Now since it is the price of one $60 game for a year's worth of hundreds of games to choose from.
God of War is one of the games currently on Playstation Now.
I'm currently in Alfheim.

So do you download the games like you do with the Xbox GamePass, or does it stream all content? If it's the latter, how is the quality? I've been thinking of giving PS Now a go one time just to experience some Sony exclusives.
It's a dark day when Mario & Sonic at the Olympics receives higher scores than Luigi's Mansion 3
Reggie Fils-Aime on the Wii U's failure Iwata against Wii Sports being bundled with Wii in U.S., the Activision Blizzard Hong Kong controversy, and more
Seems like he gave a kick ass lecture. It'd be cool to watch it whenever it gets put online, although I know I'll never get around to actually doing so.
You can download the PS2 and PS4 games on PS Now but you have to stream the PS3 games. You can stream all of the games; I'm streaming God of War because I didn't want to delete games off my harddrive to play it.
For streaming they test your internet connection before you get PS Now to make sure you're able to stream the games. While streaming you're capped at 720p and you can't play the DLC. I only noticed some minor slow down streaming the games but it isn't really noticable. They do have a warning that pop ups if you see that warning you should save immediately because you could lose connection; I only saw that warning once. I've been playing PS Now since October 7th.
