At the same time, I'd also like to play through more PlayStation VR games. I still have everything hooked up after having not played any for it in a few months, so hopefully that's enough of a motivator.[/font]

I treated myself to a PS4 VR a couple years ago, and I've never set it up. I keep buying VR games on sale too, lol.

Gaming wise? Try to limit my purchases to stuff off my wish list (Though I can't turn down a dollar game at a thrift store, lol). I don't plan to buy any "new" games in 2024, and would like to work on my massive backlog.

everyone who is moral and good is getting shutdown, while the bad people are winning, I am also working my ass off to save whatever I can from people who sue just to create more bad things to do more bad things to good people, JN is to blame for everything, and I put up with her for life in prison.

PH Judy Neideffer and her real Facebook profile is currently invisible, ever wonder why we still hear B52's sometimes over our heads sometimes when there is no airplanes in the skylines?

Something must be wrong (again). I hear Rock Lobster above my head, not the plane.

 The FBI knows I own a refurbished working OG Original Xbox that can play DVDS with that adopter That came with the sale. So maybe they figure I don't need to play all my OG games. On 360 due to fail-safe



This is 100% it.

I blame Reagan for what we have to endure here.

Who knew Atari 2600 has regained so much value? It's one of the more valuable libraries out there now. Neck and neck with GameCube.


I'm old enough to remember the video game crash in the mid 80's. As a poor kid, it was great. You could walk into any drug store or grocery store (Part of the problem in the end lol) and they would have tables of new/sealed games for $1-2 each. Like...hundreds of games to comb through. I would walk down to the store every sat with my allowance and get a new game or two.

I'm not bothered at all by them. I have a bunch on PS3 (I actually kinda like the red cases- the EU ones are pretty ugly though) and Xbox 360. As long as the game works, I'm good. If I find an original print cheap enough I'll add it as well. I don't mind have an extra if it's a variation.

I don't remember my parents ever forbidding me from watching/reading anything.
The advantages of being born in a family of Socialist Atheists I guess? Haha

Pretty much the same here. There were a couple movies I wasn't allowed to watch until I was older (When I was 7-8 I couldn't watch certain movies like Cat People or Risky Business, but by the time I was 13 it was fine, lol) Actually, those are the only 2 I recall being told I had to wait on (Themes were incest and prostitution)

I'm personally not much of a trophy guy. if it's something outside the game I just ignore it.

Plus for my taste hunting achievements can make a game less fun especially if it's completionists geared not my cup of tea But I get the appeal for it.

Oh I'm so far from a completionist, lol. I just play my games, but it is a lot of fun to keep track of. I rarely let it dictate the way I play (I'll do some online stuff I normally woul;dn't if it's not a pain or a time sink)

Trueachievements
truetrophies
truesteachievements
psnprofiles

I used to use xboxachievements.com and playstationtrophies.org but their community was incredibly toxic to newbies  (2011-2012) and once I found the alternatives I never really went back. I will check their guides once and awhile but those sites have become a shell of what they once were.

I know those are more achievement/trophy tracking, and say, PS3 games without trophies aren't even listed on psnp or truetreophies (Though truesteam does have games without achievements there....weird) I really find them useful.

Smokey and the Bandit - Odd movie moods lately, going from space/scifi to war films to late 70's/early 80's car films lol Smokey and the Bandit was one of the many old flicks I'd watch with my Dad on a weekend afternoon if it was on a rerun, just goofy car chase nonsense.  I funnily thought it had Dom DeLuise in it, of which I know he's in Cannonball Run with Burt, a movie I like more, but apparently I was remembering Smokey and the Bandit 2 lol  Silly old movie, definitely a product of its time for better or worse, but overall it's just a goofy light watch.  No real story to it, just a long car chase that I forgot that  the plot hinges on Burt and his buddy smuggling some crappy cheap beer across state lines lol  Stuff like this has abit of a soft spot for me.  Gonna watch the sequel next.

The theme song pretty much tells you the story, lol. I loved that movie back in the day.

I quit gaming from around 1992-2010.

I was given 2 free consoles over that time, a 3D0 which I sold a couple months later (regret) and a Dreamcast I still have. Avid gamer before and after that time period, but yeah...I only bought a handful of used games for my dreamcast over an 18 year period. I've more than made up for it since. I'm def slowing down this gen though, i'm going to seriously limit what I buy on the PS5 and likely won't get much of anything XBX/S related unless it's dirt cheap on clearance.
