Fully reinvigorated my love of Resident Evil 4. Tracked down a physical PS4 release and have sunk about 8 hours+ straight today. Haven't actually finished it since the Gamecube days (which I probably beat about 5-6 times), I've reattempted to play it atleast 4 times on other platforms but it never stuck.

Handgun w/ Exclusive Upgrade is so much fun.

I feel like i'm 16 again.

Finally finished Breath of the Wild and, man, what a fucking game.
I feel weirdly grateful for the time I spent with that game.

I feel disgusting, bought some Overwatch Lootboxes for the McCree skin. Didn't get it and am now $25ish short. Though, I did get a fair amount of Golds. Just for noone I care about

Me trying to get Zen's Halloween skin.

Got McCrees tho.

When you say "finished" you mean you got all 900 Korok seeds, right ?

Hah! Not likely. I don't recall how many korok seeds I got, but I did 105 shrines.
Was going to finish all the shrines, but I got caught up in the motion once I ventured into the castle.

I started Everything this weekend. Was only going to spend half an hour or so with it to check it out, but I got lost in it. That game is a trip. You can literally be anything.

Anyone have any good ideas for selling a New 3DS XL Hyrule Gold edition and some games online? (I don't like craigslist because meeting with strangers freaks me out)

Honestly, just eBay it. Nintendo things always hold value so set it at a decent price and let them pay what they're prepared to spend.

Currently downloading No Mans Sky. Lets see how this goes.

[reckon luck]

Reinstalled StarCraft II after many years. Apparently it's going free to play and everyone who bought Wings of Liberty and then dropped it (like me) is going to get Heart of the Swarm for free.

Still haven't bought Brood War Remastered. I'll get around to it.

Started Need For Speed Payback for an hour this morning to get my arcadey drift on. Story is probably trash but I AINT HERE FOR THAT. I'M HERE FOR WILD OVER-FENDERS THAT ARE WIDER THAT MY SICK DRIFTS.

Things to note since the last game if you care:

- they made it so pausing the game ACTUALLY PAUSES THE GAME. None of that always online bullshit.
- no body damage? Kinda lame, but I see why the did it in regards to the story, but again WHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THE STORY. okay there is body damage sometimes???? It is really inconsistent compared to the last game.
- YOU CAN FUCK UP COP CARS AND MAKE EM DO FLIPS N SHIT IN PURSUIT which kinda brings a little Burnout vibe to the game whihc is p NEAT.

Really hoping they opened up the customization unlike the last game where half the cars had mods for days and the other half were super restricted.

UPDATE:
- Customization is really cool so far.
- They took away the rubber banding physics from the last game which is great. There are actually easy, medium, and hard difficulties to choose from, and just because you are in first place doesn't mean they are going rubber band and zip up behind you to make the illusion of a closer race or vice versa if you're losing. I feel like when I win or lose it was for legit reasons. My car needed tuning, I messed up that turn, etc. This overall makes your in game money spending decisions have more weight, because you gotta have a solid ride to stay competitive, where as in the last game it didn't feel like that mattered.
- I wish there were cop chases outside of racing/story events. That was super fun in the last game.

Ok. I just wasn't sure if there was a Reverb for video games.

Depends on what type of game you like. If you like super chill exploration with a little crafting and looting......then you'll probably dig it.
It's a lot better than it was at launch.

If you want the inverse, a game about flying around in spaceships and blowing the shit out of people alternating with eternally long flights through space to deliver 100 tonnes of biowaste while blasting Deep Purple's "Space Truckin'" then I'd heartily recommend Elite Dangerous.

It, too, has exploration but with a far different emphasis. No mandatory shitty crafting, either.
