Last repost is referring to this.

This, so much, I have every other retro Castlevania release on PC and Switch, except this one.

Just found out a wee Asian Food Mart has opened up more or less just round the corner, so will go and have a look tomorrow to see what instant noodles they have amongst other things.

Look, I love YueYing's weapon and moveset in Warriors Orochi 4, but sometimes you have to go back to Warriors Orochi 3, equip her comedy weapon, the big mochi hammer, then do X-X-X-Y to grab a bawbag and slam them into the ground. 😁🤪

Especially when your local library looks like this. 😁

Tried Dynasty warriors 3 Remastered demo on PS5 and PC, yes, a definite pickup, bit more difficult than many recent musou games and not a fan of the English voices, but you have Japanese/Chinese options. Played as Sun Shangxiang, Zhenji and Zhou Yu, all fun. Definitely more than a simple remaster.

Yep, back on the Skrim some fave early quests (Eldergleam and Meridia's Beacon) again, and a couple of side ones I'd not done before. Meant to be getting Jlargrun's Trumpet or something for the Greybeards but as usual, mucking about as much as possible before even wandering near the main story.

Forbidden Planet is glorious in 4K, noticed details on the spaceship I'd noticed before and some pin sharp effrcts stuff that was just indistinct back on my old taped off the telly copy. Will def8nitely be picking up a few more 50's sci-fi classics in the future.

Arrow not really letting up for December, the wonderful bampots 😁, that's 4Ks of Bullitt, Logan's Run and Pedicab Driver as definite buys and Black Christmas as a maybe, depending on things.

New Resident Evil movie was fantastic, did some nifty things that I really liked, was completely understandable to someone who knows nothing about the games (waves at Stephen) is really funny at times and is the best "bad day at work" horror movie since Return Of The Living Dead.

Also kinda ridiculous that we're at the end of September but I'm still happily going out without a jacket/coat on as it's still about 15'C out there.

And this is part of why I fired up Destiny 2 again, since they say they're actually doing this. Plus the Moments Of Triumph this is pretty nifty, got some nice Marathon related cosmetics and I'm back to mostly using my old Future War Cult armour set.

Anyways, my Forbidden Planet 4K has arrived and I'm about to pop out to see the new Resident Evil movie.

000

Popping back onto Destiny 2 after a three year break has been heavily confusing and a bit aimless, I fell off around Witch Queen, which I never finished, don't think I ever started Lightfall, and bumbling about trying to figure out if I can even play those and the other campaign stuff I missed.

I jist loooove when my PS5 randomly shuts itself down, especially the passive aggressive "This was not shut down/disconnected properlt" messages as it repairs storage. YOU fucking did this, so shut the fuck up. 🤪

Up to Torment 3 in Diablo IV and can probably go up another tier or two, but will wait a bit since started the 10th anniverssry No Man's Sky expedition tonight so will be dividing my attention between the two.

Yay, all clear from podiatry, my toe's healed up fine after they treated it a bit last week. Grabbed a loaf and snacks on way home and that's me sitting down, DIablo-ing and not leaving the flat again until Friday

But of course they seem to get Diablo IV working just as I head to bed early as got a 9am medical appointment.🤪

You would hope that after three years, Diablo IV's servers wouldn't diebon their arses at the stsrt of a new season, yet here we are.

This is very neat, but they first mentioned it back in Jan 2022 with some concepts and never heard anyhting else since, so assumed they'd abandoned it and in the meantime, bought a Fightbox R10 Pro six months ago which has the stick, spinner and trackball all in one. Nifty, but too late for me.

*flips the numbers back* It has been 0 days since someone who's work I enjoyed and was looking forward to their future work has massively disappointed me and made me not want to buy any of their work from now on. (head of Unseen studio)

Garuda: They should do "Nancy Drew vs The Hardy Boys". Me: I think they've done that many times. Garuda: No, but at the end they team up to fight Destoroyah.

Wish they'd port the console versions of Torchlight 1 & 2 back to PC with full controller support. It's one of the few remaining reasons my 360 remains available to hook up when needed.

I have finally done the last mandatory rampage quest in Monster Hunter Rise, having avoided it in both my Switch and PS5 playthroughs, this time on PC, managed it on first attempt. Despite owning the expansion on three different systems, I've never gotten to the Sunbreak content yet.
