I’m happy to report that EDF 4.1 is a good port. Properly plays nice with my third party 360 controller and has pretty good KBM controls. I really needed this after One Piece Musou 3 on PC having terrible controller support. Wouldn’t let me rebind my trigger buttons and wanted to use them to rotate the camera instead of the right stick.
Continuing to play GBA _Zelda III_and trying to see how much progress I can make without the sword, after giving it away to the smithies. So far the answer is “surprisingly far”. You can totally do dungeons 2, 3, and 5 without it, at least, which makes all three bosses interesting exercises in shooting a moving target while in motion myself. I had to recover the Master Sword to enter Misery Mire, because I forgot to open the dungeon before giving it away, so I compensated by getting rid of my shield, which is not a terribly great idea in a dungeon where everything is shooting stuff at you.

Starflight. Punching alien species in the guts and selling them for profit. Most excellent.
finished Furi (entirely over remote play because apparently my response to input lag is pointless overconfidence, saying nothing of the fact that I have a fancy gsync monitor for my computer and I was playing it via a stream from my PS4, even though I do not have PS+ which would’ve gotten me the game for half price). honestly, I was a real big fan – felt like it rose way above the sum of its parts. the narrative interludes are really thoroughly done, and the battles are simultaneously way less arduous than straight bullet hell and way more dynamic than straight punch-out. never got stuck on anything for longer than what felt like the intended length of time either, and the attack timing and hitboxes felt absolutely perfect, which is still a feat for any action game not using a bespoke japanese engine. pretty strong recommendation.

85 hours into New Vegas, talked to Mr. House
fascinating. I never even knew you could ditch the sword. I bet that’s an awesome challenge.
EDF multiplayer worked real well D:

Good lord the twist in Zero Time Dilemma is real real dumb.
Wha…what have you been doing up until now? Haha
This can only be a criticism, instead of merely description, given a prescriptive view of “what a game should be” that I don’t think is intellectually profitable.
Tackling Umbrealla Cronicles for the Wii because I haven’t played a light gun game since Lethal Enforcers for the SNES. Granted, Im not playing a light gun game because I want to reconsider the genre; it’s to see if this particulate Resident Evil game contains any subtle Cavia weirdness that might alter the RE experience in an interesting way.
Sadly, Cavia is treating the source material with a fair amount of reverence but there are some notably Cavia touches to the main campaign that register if you’ve played a few of their joints. Masafumi Takada has crafted some great music and the menus are always designed well.
I cut north to New Vegas after Primm instead of going to Nipton. Was mucking about. Did Honest Hearts around the 40 hour mark, Old Would Blues around 70. Just now did the loop south through Novac and Boulder.
if you’re playing this on a Wii you need to hack that shit and play the SNES Super Scope games in the best form to play them in 2016.

Also Star Fox Zero is current winner for Worst Game of 2016. This game is terrible and I hate it. Even if you removed all the motion control nonsense 90% of what you are doing isn’t fun or engaging. You are just distracted by trying to manage the left stick, the right stick, motion controls, looking at the TV and looking at the Wii U pad. Then whatever is actually happening in the game.

Tell me more about the cavia weirdness.
I am not okay with Valhalla Knights heros unbuckled pants and glowing crotch.
Rated E for everyone.
I remember hearing that it involves a photobooth in the game some how
