Bombest pussy that ever was.

I got in deep poo poo as a kid because I had an album by Da Dogg Pound with a track called "Bomb Azz Pussy" on it and my dad found it and yeah. Thanks rap music. Other notable sources of deep poo poo include Onyx's "Blacc Vagina Finda" and Ice Cube's "Now I Gotta Wet'cha," because my dad thought that was a sex reference and not a slang term for shooting someone. But to keep things on topic, I think Nier: Automata is all around a pretty good game.

I'm currently playing nier after finishing and not being that impressed with gow and even with that in mind the combat in nier is subjectively Not As Good. It's that bland that I might just stick it on Easy and turn on the auto chips just to enjoy the story instead.

Also there are tons of open spaces that are just walled off invisibly instead of at least there being a token piece of scenery in the way to stop you going there, feels kind of lovely and confusing when the map is already kind of poo poo at showing you where there's an actual path to somewhere.

Also it turns out "self destruct" is Japanese for "blow your clothes off and run around with your rear end out until you teleport somewhere to make the clothes come back". As boring as Dad of War Kratos was I didn't have to backtrack anywhere in a rush to get his manskirt back on before my wife came into the room to witness my shame at any point.

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Tacoma is exactly like Prey except there's no combat, no guns, no aliens, it's three hours long, and it's about how corporate greed wears out the human spirit. It's a neat little walky sim from the creators of Gone Home.

Don't want the player getting in the way of Cages totally brilliant and innovative story.

I think with regards to gameplay it would make a little more sense to do the original scrambled order, but there really isn't any gameplay of note so do whatever you like.

The only issue with remix is you get tutorials halfway into the game instead of when you need them and each section goes on too long and gets boring

The psn is so lovely the only way to get a shot at decent download speeds is to act pissy and pause/resume downloads or run network tests from settings to make it think you’re losing your poo poo so the thing tries to find a closer access point

That makes me think of what I've been playing for last two days straight, Hokuto ga Gotoku. I'm kinda near the end now but it has some serious time wasting bullshit in it. It has a city like other Yakuza games but no taxi system and a really obnoxious layout - you constantly need to walk all the way across town through terribly angled streets to do things that should be right next to each other, like the store that sells buggy parts and the place where you use those parts on your buggy. The wasteland map outside is huge and empty and though there are fast travel points there is still massive empty space between them. And also a billion little things like just turning Kiryu Kenshiro around 180 degrees has a slow, dedicated animation for it.

It has a lot of good stuff but in ease of use it's a big step back from even the questionable level of other current Yakuza games.

Just picked up a PS4 Pro after selling my original PS4 a few years back. I cleaned the console down and did the usual stuff before selling it. On my Pro I can happily login to a newly created PSN account but when trying to use my old one it just returns me to the XMB after showing the "attempting to login" screen. I can login to the old account just fine on my PC. Any ideas?

Edit: Just enabled 2FA on the old account for funsies, the prompt for the code appears on the PS4, I enter it and it still eventually just goes back to the XMB without actually logging in. Tried nuking the account and initializing the console. This account is hosed isn't it?

I dug out my PlayStation gold headphones since I haven’t used it in a while. Is there a current consensus best custom setting for it now? I can’t remember what I liked before. I think the Destiny one was solid for everything.

Yeah RDR is particularly heinous on PSNow. My second playthrough of the game was on a PS3 and it didn't look nearly as trash as it does streaming.
