Gonna play Requiem later this month so I figure I should play this first.

Nioh 3 complete!

Thank fuck it's not too close to Requiem. Should leave me plenty of time to play through it at least a couple times before it's time to put my Fedex uniform back on.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds I'd tried and failed several times to get into A Link to the Past, so I thought I'd give this a shot instead, and it really hooked me. It's a great Zelda game, reminiscent of the old 2D ones while feeling much better to play. I was a little worried about the item rental system, but even that ended up not really bothering me, though I do think overall I prefer the classic dungeon item unlock system. This is definitely a fun game and worth playing though, and I highly recommend it. Grade: A Side note: Playing it on the Thor felt great, like that's where it was meant to be played. It looked great too, running at a solid 1080p 60fps.

It's actually happening! MGS4 is getting out of PS3 Jail! I wonder if they'll announce more bonus games, though. Because just 2 main games + Ghost Babel is kind of underwhelming after Vol. 1's lineup. I mean, MGS4 being included at all is huge, so I'm not complaining but they could've thrown in MGSV as well to complete the Solid series. The AC!D games would've also been really cool as bonus titles. Kinda makes me wonder if there's going to be a Vol. 3 down the line.

Bosses with kill counters in online games. Nioh 3 has a thing where the spirits of dead players coalesce into a tough as nails boss that spawns randomly in the open world and drops really good loot if you manage to kill it. That's already neat but something I got a kick out of was that it displays how many players it kills until someone eventually takes it down. I managed to take one down earlier with a player kill count of over 61,000. Is it completely cosmetic? Yeah. Did it feel cool as hell to be the one who ended his reign of terror? Hell yeah.

The first Nioh is definitely the hardest. I actually think it gets progressively easier as the series goes along. The best tip I can give you is not to try to play it like Dark Souls. Dodging is possible but blocking is your friend.

IT'S HAPPENING!!!!!!
