Oh yeah, well some chick bought Velo a PS4 through his porn stream while him and his lady were just laying there playing video games.

WHY THE fuck DOESNT THIS HAPPEN TO ME?!
 
I decided to skip ahead and just finish out the game.

And damn, nice job, Tyler. I thought having two ships would be awesome but it is confusing as fuck.
Thanks.

Keep in mind I just had to get golds (which you are awarded for fast times) and not perfects to get that trophy. The Perfect on 40 seems impossible.

 
If Velocity 2X was just the ship parts, I'd have it wrapped up by now.
I hesitate to say I'd "have it wrapped up" already, but I'd be a lot more comfortable and definitely closer to the plat.

I just cannot get a perfect hang of the platforming sections, specifically the shooting and also the transporting to a lesser extent. It's just not clicking perfectly like the ship levels do.

it's not impossible, but damn hard.

and yeah it shows that the ps4 destiny bundle is purchased on my wish list, but could she just go back and cancel order?

 I should have picked a ps4 that was out but she told me to go add one to my list and she would buy it so I picked the white destiny ps4 but it doesnt release til 9/9. Hopefully it's all good and I get a free ps4 ;) i doubt it

 
I'm pretty over it.  I'll platinum this eventually but there's no way I'm getting first if Vig stays that dedicated.  Scratch that, no way I'm getting first regardless, haha.

Hey Zimm, Crazy and Derex, I'm really concerned for Aaron tomorrow night.
Because of the all the ladies that will be knocking on his hotel room door after dismantling the Hawks vaunted D? Understandable.

I'd be more worried about Russell hustle and bustle man muscle Wilson. By the end of the night, he's gonna think he's in the movie Ghost because there will be so much Clay on him.

Good luck chasing Wilson. I hope you aren't working and can actually watch the game. Its got to be enfuriating watching your guys chasing him around down after down. You get excited as you get close, only to see him spin out of trouble. By this time tomorrow, you will know exactly what I am talking about. Over under on how many times you scream fuck is set at 25.

He ended Brian Urlachers career chasing after him. He got injured doing it. True story.


"Russell, I'm not sure if you know this or not, but you ended my career basically last year on that third down in overtime," Urlacher said, via FoxSports.com. "You were rolling out, I was trying to chase you. Trying to chase you down I popped my hamstring and missed the last four games of the season. You ended it."

Oh I got used to seeing the Packers aimlessly chase around a QB when Ron Mexico came into Lambeau for the playoffs over 10 years ago. And more recently with Kaperdick the last couple years.

I just don't get how can you root for someone that takes away jobs like that. You disgust me, you monster.

I can't figue out how to do moving gifs on here. The knowledge escapes me.
 
first 20 perfected.  crapton to go.  but it's past midnight so i need to go work out.   which is shitty, but not as shitty as waking up at 5am to do it.   though i'll probably switch back to mornings in a couple weeks.

 
I just started playing Fez and I feel like I am stuck all the time. I got 4 full cubes and I don't know how to get back to the hub. I don't know if I am missing any of the smaller cubes. I basically have no idea what is actually happening in the game.

 
i don't know how you get the perfect on that level 50, that is insane. I can't even get the gold for speed under a min...

people that play video games in the morning are gigantic seething bags of dicks. so much rage quitting that it's taken me an hour to play two matches that count.

You're good enough that you probably know this, but I found one of the surest ways to shave time off is to use touch teleport as a speed enhancer. I'm not talking about the obvious 'pods on two sides of a wall' type time savers -- i mean more like skipping through any horizontal or zig zag tunnels like nightcrawler.

I found this to be best done with touch since it lets you really jump across the entire screen with no delay in a way that button teleporting simply can't.

i'm also not at this stage yet, obviously... these are tricks i used to shave time off in later levels of ultra that still work for 2x. can't wait to get to these super hard levels people are hitting walls at.

I have been playing fez off and on. I have no idea how to get to the hub. In fact, I don't really know where i am. I feel like i just keep falling down the rabbit hole in it. What really scares me is the thought that i might need to find places again to open chests or whatnot that i missed. Still... the game is pretty fun and i don't even like platformers usually.

Way too long, but not sure exactly. I wasn't planning to stay up that late. I got to Lost in the Zone at least 4 times, but I lost track.

I liked this because you said you doubted it. I am jealous. Thats why. Dont judge me!

 
I finished up to level 20 last night but didnt perfect about 3 or 4 levels yet.  Probably just going to play each level a handful of times to see if I can get perfect before moving on from now on.  I really am starting to hate the platforming sections.  Not because they are bad, but because I like the flying sections a lot more.  They are just more fun.  I assume they added platforming just to give you something different. 

Played some more infamous last night too.  Really want to finish that so I can move on to another game. 

Chewy, you still up for Dead Nation in a few days?

 
I was looking through stuff to sell on eBay when I came across Dark Sector. It'll never happen, but I'd love to see a next-gen Dark Sector 2.

I may be one of the few people who understands your love for that game. I bought it day 1 and loved it, but I don't think I've ever seen anyone else share that sentiment.

 
Looks like they finally updated the PSNP image for 2X.

Oh, and 50 is done. You definitely CANNOT let go of the boost the entire time, as I did that and just made it at 1:00 (that 3-second end "scene" really helped matters :roll:). affa's touch-teleport tip helped immensely, as well.

Done as in perfect done?

That's pretty freaking impressive. I've just started diving into Pinball Arcade after taking a break for awhile and I'm perfectly content completing standard goals and getting somewhere in the top 5 on the scores. I feel like I am missing some core skills that would improve my game. Like 9 times out of 10 it feels like I lose my ball in some unavoidable way (falls down the sides when kickbacks aren't active).

It feels kinda like a more polished RE4, with the glaive added. It was a nice surprise.

I'd probably have done even better but I was running out of steam. I'm not a 2 AM gamer. It does kind of suck that I didn't quite make it to 10 billion. :) In general Pinball Arcade plays too easy. This is fine, but I wish they had an "Expert" mode where it would use settings that make the game play shorter AND it had it's own leader boards. For example "replays" wouldn't give extra ball, specials wouldn't give extra ball and even have an EB limit per ball, or no EBs at all (though I'd rather there were some, just not many). Then games would be a lot shorter, but it needs a leader board or at least off-line high score list. I do have the Pro tables, so I can make those changes myself, albeit without online leader boards. It may be the case that the machine will keep it's high score list through power cycles. I haven't checked that yet. If so I'll definitely make those changes, because playing a game for 2+ hours isn't really all that fun.

 
For me, that's what "done" means. Two levels remain, and they're the doozies at 5:30 and 7:00 for Gold times. :???:
jesus. I think on every single level on my first run I'm about 20 - 30 seconds short of the target time. the critical urgency levels actually seem to be the easiest ones this time around, I expect to be able to bust through those. it's the long ass levels with a bunch of obtuse platforming (that still has strict time reqs) that kills me.

still, pretty amazing that you're this close. I suspect you don't have anything else to do today again?

It is really funny looking at your card and seeing all blue and green letters (S and A) then a big ref F with 0 trophies for Stick it to the Man. Whats the deal?
I started it accidentally when I was not planning on playing it at the time. I want to go back and play it, but since I typically prioritize rentals it just has not happened yet. I tend to go for games with platinums from my backlog first for some reason when I do play something from it.

Also, I think I will like the game, so I have been saving it for when I feel burned out on other styles of games.

I picked Dark Sector up for cheap several years ago, played it a 5 or 6 levels and then lost interest. I remember it not being bad per se, but a little wonky to control.
