Damn, can we escape the encroaching hellscape by transporting everyone back to 1998? 🫰

Check out Nile Red on Nebula, (or YT if that's your bag). He makes American Cheese from the ground cheddar up and you can watch. Having done so, I agree with you.

Gotta get him one of these:

Just adding support for this recommendation. I had 4 gaming headsets before this, and got this for about $140 on sale. It's far and away the best sounding headset I've ever used for non-professional purposes. There are two caveats:

3.5mm jack works on most gaming consoles through the controller. And you can get a super cheap and small adapter from 3.5mm to USB-C if you want to use it with phone or other USB-C input. But if you need wireless this won't do it.

They are open back style headphones. Meaning there's a considerable amount of sound leakage into the room with you. Someone sitting next to you can hear every word of your voice chat or phone call. They sound really open airy and have a great sound-stage because of this, but it's not great if you need privacy. They do make the Game One version with a closed back.

But zero was Majima at his least wacky. He spends most of it just being a regular Yakuza.

Scalpers have turned that into $6000 for the available units left.

Hmm, this couldn't have anything to do with his pending Starlink deal with Italy? πŸ€”

Maybe it's even more important to him to be close to you or your folks than it is to be warm? ☺️

I just had a beef bowl from the Ramen joint my spouse and I discovered a couple weeks ago. It was awesome. Also a great seaweed salad app. Just to go full on, I picked up some watermelon Ramune soda and some teriyaki mochi at the store too. Didn't plan on a full Japanese cuisine evening but I'm glad it happened.

Good to hear you're all enjoying your meals today.

It's even dumber that his nom de sputum, is almost certainly a Resident Evil 4 reference. πŸ™„

FWIW, my last phone (until 3 weeks ago) was a OnePlus Nord N20. Absolutely stellar budget phone with a solid mid-range experience and features. It had a headphone jack AND an SD card slot, as well as dual SIM tray if that's useful. I think it's actually higher spec than the N30. You can still find those. OnePlus is pretty good about including a lot of that stuff, except on their flagship phones. Hope that's helpful.

 

If I'm late to the party on this, my apologies. I just got the game because it's cheaper with PSPremium. It's awfully close to the VR Astrobot we hoped we would get. I've played about 3-4 hours and am on the second "world", and so far it's an absolute blast. If you played the original Astrobot Rescue for PSVR1 it's very similar. I don't want to go on too long, but here is a short list of pros and cons:

Pros:

*They add a few Mario-like mechanics with hidden blocks and overworld maps. *They add direct participation in the environment from the player a bit like Moss for some levels and it's great *Some score attack mini-games based on game mechanics

  • Movement and jump physics feel very smooth and intuitive

Cons:

  • The graphics and art are great but not quite the level of an Astrobot or Mario
  • They don't really develop the additional mechanics much or make make them integral to the gameplay
  • The difficulty is generally lower than a Mario, maybe a hair lower than Astrobot, but it has some strange ups and downs mid-game that make some parts feel too easy and others feel strangely frustrating. (This is minor, but it does pop-up from time to time.)

If you liked Astrobot VR this will definitely be a good choice for you, and over-all I think it's one of the better titles available on PSVR2 currently. I hope that's helpful information.

I also got several with internal reflections between the filter and the lens. Thought it was kind of cool.
