Grabbed Wasted and Westerado, thanks! I'd recommend Volgarr to anybody by the way, it is the closest thing to Castlevania (Not Symphony of the Night) that is good.

I expected stuff from Vanquish when I started it last night. What I didn't expect was a legit horrifying opening cutscene.

Tips for Vanquish for instant stylish play:

- you can use melee while sliding without overheating if you don't actually hit an enemy;
- this is useful because if you melee in front of an object, Sam will do a somersault and you can slomo snipe enemies;
- you can combine this with grenade throwing (throw a grenade, slide, somersault, shoot the grenade);
- you can slomo-vault over cover;
- practice doing an evade and going into slomo, it works well as a superfast peek;
- evade gets a lot slower if you're overheated, but it's really fast as long as you're not, so use it to recover.
- going into slomo while boosting is only marginally useful because you'll overheat much faster.

I can't believe they never gave Vanquish a New Game+ option, so I could skate around the battlefield with 100% upgraded guns forever.

Yeah, that's probably the most disappointing part of that game. Plus some weapons being rather poo poo (seriously, what's the point of the disc launcher?).

Its melee attack has a pretty generous 'snap' to nearby enemies and, as long as you aren't staggered by crossfire, it absolutely melts Romanovs' armour while stunlocking them.

It's not a damage hose you can spray at an enemy horde, but like the shotgun it's lethal in a high-risk high-reward, 'obliterate thing in crosshairs? :madmax:' way.

I literally just went through this process today and it took me all of 2 minutes to fix. Every other 2FA setup I have took longer, and trust me, I have a lot.

Hey, how is the walking dead game; the new one? If I disliked the second season and didn't give a poo poo enough to try the michonne spinoff, should I even bother with this season 3? I loved season 1, for what it's worth.

kind of late but i *liked* the second season and still thought New Frontier was miserable

it's a joyless grimdark mess where your choices matter even less than usual for a Telltale game and Hobo Garrus suddenly showing up in episode 2 isn't nearly enough to redeem it

Just make sure you write down the recovery number and keep it somewhere safe. One time my phone just straight up froze on me and I couldn't do anything. Luckily I had the code to disable steam guard until I got a new one. It may also change if you get a new device so check and make sure after it's set up.

A consumer wishing to port a number should contact the prospective new carrier, who will start the process of porting by contacting the consumer's current carrier. Commission rules require carriers to port a number when they receive a valid request, and carriers may not refuse to port.
