PSNOT 3.0 - Let's Talk About University of Kentucky, Baby!

Uncharted 2 crushing is pretty damn easy so far compared to 1. Only through chapter 7 though. I do remember the final boss being a bitch in this one on crushing. No tweaks or glitches of course, pansies.

#allnatural
A holes patched it out on 2 and 3 anyways.

I started a crushing playthrough on 2, not very far into it yet, hopefully I can make it through.

I aint that good at the gaming.

 
Got my Android Assault Cactus indiebox, probably the weakest of the four I've gotten. Big item was a badge-like thing for Cactus, kinda corny. The little necklaces look kinda cool but are pretty cheap plastic.

Nice Carpet. Is that Shag?

 
I'd say it's definitely one of the better gem matching and F2Ps out there.

I don't know how much there really is to get out of it though... not a lot of redeeming value in it for the time investment it demands. It's one of those games that you play when there's so much going on in your life that you just want to turn your mind off and go on autopilot.

It kind of reminds me of when I would get detention and the teacher would hand me a math book, tell me to turn to a certain page and just start doing math problems until they told me to stop... so yeah... eventually you'll look back at it and say "well, there goes x amount of hours of my life that I'll never get back"
Meh. I don't know if it's one of the better ones. It's not really holding my interest. (The mobile version at least)

Marvel Puzzle Quest is better. I played that daily for the better part of a year. Even joined a team with some CAG people. I think there's still a pretty active thread devoted to it.

I played Marvel Puzzle Quest every day for awhile, then stopped, but now have gotten back into it pretty good. Those daily Deadpool quests keep me coming back. Best match 3 I've played.
 
Scottie Pippin thinks the 1995-96 Bulls would sweep the Golden State Warriors and that he would guard Steph Curry and hold him to under 20 points. Did Pippin forget he was Robin to Jordan's Batman?
Pippen doesn't get as much credit as he should because he played with Jordan. He would have been the star of any other team.

 
Teslagrad is pretty unforgiving, split-second decisions, wrong choice or you die.

Stealth Inc 2 by comparison is the same sort of puzzle platformer but requires you to rely more on logic versus timing and jumps.

 
If he played on any other team, he's just a slightly larger version of Gary Payton. He might've been the star, but he still wouldn't have won any titles.
I wouldn't say all that. It would depend upon who else was on his team obviously but the Bulls got pretty far when MJ "retired" the first time. Pippen deserves way more credit than he's ever received despite all the titles, gold medals, and top 50 all time lists (which are obviously not official lol) he's garnered in his career.

No doubt. I'm not saying he wasn't great. If I'm putting together a list of the top 3 small forwards of all time, it's him, Bird, and LeBron.

 
Holy shit, I've never just not slept at all during the night until last night. Last time I looked at the clock it was 4:45 and I had to be up at 6:30. Today should be miserable.
 
If I want someone to win a dunk contest, I'll pick him. If I want someone to actually get out of the first round of the playoffs, I'll take James.
I'm not saying Dominique is better than. LeBron or Bird, but he's in the conversation with Pippin. He had scoring prowess that Is better than Pipp.

I'm terrible too. Up to chapter 14, it is pretty easy though. But now I'm at the boss guy on the end of the train, and I must have tried a good 5o times. His qtes I can't get the timing down for the love of me.

You could make a copy of the save and then downgrade to hard and come back to crushing later right?

I might have to do that and dont want to lose all progress on crushing if I do, should work though.

I have no idea. Just try to play through it. I'm at chapter 19, and that chapter 14 boss is the only thing that gave me trouble. There are a lot of parts in this game that have little or no enemies so the difficulty doesn't make a whole lot of difference. The bigger gun fights I maybe died 2 or 3 times, but once you figure out good places to take cover, they aren't bad.

Cool, gonna hit it hard tomorrow while im off.

 
Remember when Pippen chose to sit out the last 1.8 seconds of game 3 in 1994 against the Knicks because the play was designed for Kukoc to take the shot?

 
UGGGGGGGGHHHH, why is this exclusive to the Square-Enix Store?!

$109.99 MSRP

I can only hope it's as "exclusive" as the DQ Heroes CE turned out to be and it surfaces on Amazon at some point for the sweet 20% discount.

The steelbook looks nice for that star ocean set, but it's pretty damn pricey. I can rarely convince myself that these CEs are worth the extra cost lately.

The CE listing on the SE Store details the bonus stuff:

  • Collector’s Edition steelbook case containing the game and “The Sounds of Star Ocean”: a CD sampler soundtrack featuring 16 tracks from famed composer Motoi Sakuraba (Tales of series, Valkyrie Profile series, Dark Souls series)
  • “The Art of Star Ocean”: 80-page hardcover art book featuring art from the Star Ocean series
  • Eight exclusive art cards featuring illustrations from character designer “akiman” (Street Fighter series)
  • Pangalactic Federation ID card
  • Six background battle music themes from Valkyrie Profile, Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria and previous Star Ocean titles that fans can play during battle
  • Download code for in-game items that will aid Fidel and the crew on their journey: The Ring of the Valkyries, Gold Bunny Statue, Bushybrume Cincture, Wristlet of the Stars and Secret Sthalian Tome
Now I'm thinking I might pass on it because the CD is just a sampler (yeah yeah, I know it was unrealistic to hope for a full soundtrack). I'll still aim to buy the Day One Edition at or soon after launch, though.

My 90s Knick lovin ass sure does. I reminded my Bulls fan friend about it many times that summer.
Did he remind you about Olajuwon stuffing Starks' shit when he had a chance to win the title at the end of Game 6, and then Starks went 2-18, including 0-11 on 3s, in Game 7?

That's still my favorite Finals. 90s NBA was the best.

He did not.

(asshole)

Fun fact: I watched Anthony Mason (RIP) walk out of MSG and stood on the 94 finals court and watched Vernon Maxwell warmup prior to game 3 during an MSG tour.

 
In my quest to pick up a couple of pstv bundles I also stumbled across they had a few vita memory cards on clearance at that store. All are showing up on brickseek at these prices at multiple stores, so hopefully it's not ymmv. I'll include the item numbers for brickseek below so you can check yourself.

16gb - $10.00 #19715032

8gb - $3.50 #19715031

4gb - $2.50 #19715030

Now GO! GO! GO! :lol:
Wasn't someone here looking for a new Vita memory card? The brickseek numbers are for walmart I believe. Gonna try to look for a couple myself. I have no idea where my old 16gb card went, and I'd like a new one to put in my pstv.

16gb showed up at one walmart but showing 40 bucks.

I have 2 16gb and 1 8gb that is in pstv, wouldnt mind another 16gb for that price though.

edit couple walmarts in ky popped up having it at 10 but OOS near my parents.

Bollocks.

He was such a baby about it but after thinking about it I get it. He was playing in MJs shadow all those years and finally he thinks he can be the star of the team and show what he can really do. Then this doofy looking white guy from some shitty European country comes in and becomes famous for pretty much no other reason than he was a decent WHITE NBA player. And they give HIM the last shot? Pippen pouted for sure. He is one of the NBAs 50 greatest and he was tired of playing second fiddle.

I agree, 90s NBA was the best. Late 80s slam dunk comp was the greatest though!
