It's the best playing Metal Gear Solid by far, but it's not great as a Metal Gear Solid game.

New Japan put up what I think is their full Miami show on Youtube for free

1) (NES) Strider 2) (NES) Metroid 3) (NES) Super Mario Bros. Special 4) Black Mesa 5) Doom: Eternal Man, what a let down. I thought I wanted more Doom 2016 but apparently I was wrong? I think I had fun maybe two or three times the entire game. And that last boss fight, ugh. Beat it and immediately uninstalled it and the Bethesda launcher. I really thought i'd like this more than I did.

Season four, bitches!

We have a similar thing at FedEx, but at least when we do our jobs we're in FedEx vehicles, so it's more often than not ok.

My whole state is in a "stay at home" order, and all non-essential businesses are closed. Lucky for me (or unlucky depending on how you look at it) my job is one of the "essential" ones, so i'm still out every day, living life like normal. All restaurants are only allowed to do takeout, which is kind of interesting. Honestly my life hasn't changed all that much, so it's not really affecting me all that much. Outside of washing my hands way more often and being a little more careful about what I touch around home, that's really all i've needed to do differently.

"A quick update on backward compatibility – With all of the amazing games in PS4’s catalog, we’ve devoted significant efforts to enable our fans to play their favorites on PS5. We believe that the overwhelming majority of the 4,000+ PS4 titles will be playable on PS5. We’re expecting backward compatible titles will run at a boosted frequency on PS5 so that they can benefit from higher or more stable frame rates and potentially higher resolutions. We’re currently evaluating games on a title-by-title basis to spot any issues that need adjustment from the original software developers. In his presentation, Mark Cerny provided a snapshot into the Top 100 most-played PS4 titles, demonstrating how well our backward compatibility efforts are going. We have already tested hundreds of titles and are preparing to test thousands more as we move toward launch. We will provide updates on backward compatibility, along with much more PS5 news, in the months ahead. Stay tuned!" Source

HOW DARE Y....yeah, you're right

1) (NES) Strider 2) (NES) Metroid 3) (NES) Super Mario Bros. Special 4) Black Mesa A really fantastic remake of the first Half-Life game done in the Half-Life 2 engine. It's been in the works for a long time and finally got a 1.0 release a few weeks ago. The team did a great job with everything, and they even extended the Xen section. I remember not liking it in the original game, but they made this version way bigger/longer. Too much longer, if you ask me. By a certain point I just turned on god mode to get through it as it seemed to go on FOREVER. The final boss battle was changed up too, and for the better if I remember right.

Wrestlemania will now take place over two nights

I'm half tempted to get the Network again just to see how weird it's gonna be.

Liger's gonna go into the WWE HoF

1) (NES) Strider 2) (NES) Metroid 3) (NES) Super Mario Bros. Special This game actually came out on something called the PC88, but I played a romhack of SMB1 version of it instead for two reasons. One, I couldn't figure out how to play it on a PC88 emulator (and wasn't dying to play it on that thing). Two, because not only are the physics in that version awful, the game screen doesn't scroll. You get near the end of the screen, it goes blank, and the next screen pops up. Not only does that make it tough to see when enemies are coming up, you can't see pits that may be just inches into the next screen until it's nearly too late. There are some jumps later on in the game that are tough enough with real SMB1 physics, I imagine they'd be absolutely impossible on the SMBS physics. It's interesting for what it is, but it's not really worth playing.

1) (NES) Strider 2) (NES) Metroid This game is rough to go back to. You definitely get the feeling they're onto something, they just needed to figure out the controls/physics. There were times where it felt like I would slide along the ground after getting hit. Once you got a few energy tanks/missile upgrades, the game wasn't incredibly tough. The only area that gave me real trouble was Tourian, and specifically the Mother Brain section (with the Zebetites) as there was shit firing at you from all directions. The Metroids themselves were super easy to beat too, as they were real slow compared to the way they're portrayed in future games.
