The Blackangel

The last couple days have been pure hell. Nothing has gone right in any way, starting with having to put one of my rats down. Things have just completely gone downhill from there. If something doesn’t change soon I’m going to completely fucking lose it.

I always bought Tips & Tricks every month. Not only was it a good read but it had a huge section with cheat codes for just about every cartridge game on the market. Most of which were submitted by readers. But after the N64 day’s it kinda went out. You don’t have a lot of luck putting in cheat codes with a disc apparently.

What does everyone think of these? I currently have 3, but haven't touched them in a while, due to how cruelly hard they are. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy a good challenge, but there's a difference between a challenge, and a cruel taunt. The ones I have are The Legend Of Zelda: Goddess Of Wisdom The Legend Of Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets The Legend Of Zelda: Parallel Worlds I've never played a Zelda game that was anywhere near this hard. It took me over a year to beat just the third dungeon in Goddess Of Wisdom. And I'm blocked off from more than half the map because I don't have the hammer or Pegasus boots yet. They're items to come in later dungeons apparently. I've entered the fourth dungeon, but in the fourth room you can even get to is Vitreous. The boss from Misery Mire in A Link To The Past. But the real kicker is that in this game, a typical sword slash doesn't do shit against big enemies like this. You have to use a special attack such as charge up a spin attack or use a bow. Also Vitreous and the little ones with it move at about 3-4 times faster than it did in Link To The Past. So you're basically guaranteed to die. The cape helps a bit, but not much as it drains your magic in like 2 seconds. So ROM-Hacks....hate 'em or love 'em?

It seems really pointless to me. But at least it's not insulting like that flashback bullshit.

Red Dead Redemption 2. There's just no question about it in my opinion.

The better option to play games is a calculator. Hell is the worst abomination in the history of electronics. I had to repair them nonstop when I took electronics in high school prior to dropping out. The entire tech school had me running around from class to class so much fixing the pieces of shit that I could barely take the damn class. The teacher was working on the all the time too. We would get them back online, only for them to crash again the next damn day. The school didn't have much choice in the matter for a couple years because they had signed a contract with Hell. But as soon as that was done, they literally threw all of that shit in a dumpster, and upgraded to HP. They never had a problem again.

I bought this one for my girl's birthday in February. It's an amazing chair and a great price too. It says out of stock at the moment on my end, but that doesn't mean it will say the same on your end. Gaming Chair

I got my desktop and laptop both from Best Buy. They have the most powerful and best selection of gaming computers in my area. I didn't feel like driving out of state and most likely not find anything that would make the trip actually worth it. Also if I really wanted to go out of state, the nearest place to go to have any luck of finding something worth buying is Chicago, ad there's no fucking way I'm going there during right now. I have St. Louis and KC, but both are completely insane right now. KC is actually calming down a lot, but St. Louis is nuclear. There have been murders in the double digits since George Floyd's murder as protest. Several were children, and the killers haven't been caught yet. But it's especially dangerous for an out of town white chick, so I'm staying way the hell away from both for a good long while.

If you could spend the rest of your life with only one species what would you pick? Be specific. Don’t say “reptile” or “bird”. Pick like bearded dragon, harpy eagle, rock bass, etc. Humans don’t count. If you pick something broad like housecat or dog, give a particular breed. For me it’s a difficult choice between two. But my number one would be rats. Nothing holds as much of a place in my heart as a rat. The second choice that was up against it is a pitbull. If I had the choice I would prefer dumbo rats. Hairless are fine, but I would honestly rather they not be hairless dumbos. I have a hairless, and they have a lot of health issues. In total, I’ve spent well over $1000 in vet bills on him alone.

If they were going to do something along those lines, I would see them going to a straight up VR market eventually. They may make some so called "improvements" or upgrades to the Switch and release a Switch 2, or Switch Pro or some other title. But personally, I'm more than happy with my Switch Lite.

A gamer who goes by the Reddit handle DMarlow310, posted a video about a what most are calling a glitch. He walked out of a building and got into a fistfight. Another NPC came up behind who he was fighting, and stuck his knife into the guys neck, then walked away as if nothing had happened. I've played the hell out of RDR2, and never once seen anything close to this. It's the WEIRDEST fucking thing. The article and glitch video are here. Floating bodies and horses dying for no reason doesn't seem so weird now.

I enjoy the hell out of the game, simply because of the violence. And in actuality, it's more violent than people expected. The majority couldn't stomach it. The only ones that could were those of us that are misanthropic beyond what most people can imagine except other misanthropes.

One option you may have, is you could go around to computer repair shops, and they may have parts lying around that are just taking up space. By that I mean small local shops, not something so big that it has multiple locations. Those usually ditch all their old stuff. But the other places often do have what they term "junk parts" that are just wasting space. They may be willing to sell you something that you need for a really good price, or even give it to you. But don't hold your breath. That would be like getting struck by lightning while you're cashing in a billion dollar lottery ticket.

I get what you're saying now. I just misunderstood your point.

As far as gaming YouTubers go, I have to go with one of the best known. AVGN gets my vote. No matter how many times I've seen a video, they always make me laugh.

You have to be smarter and more business savvy than I am, but if you invest right, you can make a million fairly easy if you give it a year or two. Like I said in my initial post, $1,000,000 isn't a whole lot of money these days except to people who aren't well off. If this was 1960, then a million would be hitting the lottery beyond your wildest dreams. But alas, that was longer ago than I've even been alive.

I'm thinking my choice has changed. I would as of now most likely say Red Dead Redemption II. I finally found a real family there. People who care about each other, instead of literally using the youngest as a fucking punching bag. Physically and emotionally.

I think I might have tried Driver once, but I'm not sure, as driving games aren't really my thing. The only kind of game that would be any exception to that would be Mario Kart, but I don't know if that really counts in this instance.

That's not quite true. Granted the majority of games are just "learn the basics and you're good to go" style, but there are a lot of games that heavily use strategy. Any game where you need a decent amount of stealth requires strategy. From what I gather, Skyrim is one. Any sniper game requires strategy, because you need a place to shoot from, that doesn't put a flashing sign over your head saying ENEMY IS SHOOTING FROM HERE. Strategy comes into play on a lot more games than you're giving credit to. Even the old stuff like Donkey Kong, Frogger, and Galaga. They require a decent amount of strategy. And they have gone down as some of the ultimate classics in gaming history. I would honestly be surprised if there's even one gamer over the age of 10 who hasn't played at least one of them.

You’re just a kid?! WOW. I would not have thought that.

My favorite PS4 game has made a huge change. It's now RDR2. GoW and FF15 are great games, don't get me wrong. But for me, nothing can beat RDR2.

Those things make me want to puke. They're an insult, slap in the face, and a disgrace to gaming as a whole, regardless of which one you get.
