Please attach RL pictures of sportsballs or sportsball players so that conversation is technically on topic. OT: This is a picture of a sportsball player what I found as he is training to do sportsball related things.

Now that someone said that looks like Bill, I kind of want a unicorn mod for L4D2. Skewering zombies with a mythical creature would be pretty sweet.

Dead Space. I got DS3 for free with PS Plus (good thing too, 'cause no way am I giving EA money for something with their insidious micro-transactions in it) and decided to check out the other two first. I'm sure anyone who cares has already played it, but Dead Space absolutely nails the atmosphere. I'm not big on horror games or horror in general usually, but I find when it's sci-fi horror it can be pretty intriguing, and Dead Space certainly held my attention. And I know it's old news by now, but that UI design is brilliant, having all the HUD elements just fit seamlessly into the world. Though now I'm stuck on the bit in chapter 10 where you have to run from that invincible bastard (The Hunter, I think it's called). Dying repeatedly kinda replaces the tension with frustration after a while. It would be easy enough if I'd stocked up, but I've got no health packs and very little ammo, so it's a real pain in the ass. Gonna take a break and try again later with a fresh mind.

It's hard for me to even kill people with the realistic ballistics on, let alone pull off a long-distance insta-neuter. Although the realistic ballistics does make getting double headshots immensely more satisfying. OT: Towerfall: Ascension. Bloody brilliant local multiplayer, tons of fun. The singleplayer is alright, but I wouldn't get it just for that alone (unless you're getting it free with PS Plus like I did, then it's a no-brainer). The local multiplayer is where it's at, especially the competitive multiplayer. It gives you TONS of options for how the match is set up, like what power-ups are available, how many arrows you start with, what kinds of arrows you start with and best of all you can set all of these for either every player, or you can set different ones for different players. So if I'm playing against someone not as good, I can give them a shield to start with and start myself off with only one arrow or something. It's quite cool.

Heavily edited, but still technically an RL pic. Recently found out the hard way that I am quite allergic to bee stings. Someone made a quip about me being the poster child for bee-sting awareness, I said I looked more like the poster for some disease-post-apocalypse film, and that's where the idea for this came from. Considering I didn't spend much time on it and used a combination of my phone's built in filters, MS Paint and Sumo Paint I'm quite happy with how it turned out.

Yep, same with the "crack on the horizon" one.

Princess Zelda gets herself into a pickle and has to be unpickled by the hero, who is called Link on the few occasions when I feel mature enough to not abuse the "enter your name" feature and Fagballs at all other times.

Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. It's like a cheesy Saturday morning cartoon in video-game form, and I'm digging it.

@DanNerdCubed Lossless anti-Compression. Has higher resolution megapixels for better sound quality, but requires you to download more RAM.

Updating Warframe for PS4. Absolutely no idea if it's any good or not, because it has a huge update that for some unfathomable reason actually downloads in-game rather than via the usual PS4 background update method. Meaning the game has to be running to update. Meaning you can do precisely fuck-all else with the PS4 until it's done. Although I just set it up so the PS4 has a wired connection rather than wi-fi, so hopefully that helps.

The Last of Us. Going for my Survivor + play though now, should be easy compared to just the straight-up Survivor play though. Grounded mode is next after that. Speaking of Grounded mode, I have the season pass, but it's kinda bullshit for anyone that doesn't to have to pay for a difficulty level. Killzone: Shadowfall did the same thing, charging for an extra hard difficulty. Hope this isn't going to be a trend, because that's just shitty to make people pay for something that should've just been in the game to begin with. I also want TLOU: Remastered, but if there's not some significant discount it can fuck right off. I get they need to cover costs and all, but paying even the now-reduced price of $50 for a game I already spent $80 is fucking ridiculous. Great deal for anyone who missed it on PS3, but kinda screwing over anyone who supported it from the get-go. I really like Naughty Dog, I just hope they don't start going down the shitty-business-practices drain with the rest of the industry*. *"the rest of the industry" here meaning "Ubisoft and EA" primarily.

Resogun. Sometimes the screen just becomes a colossal clusterfuck and then I explode.

Completed that a while back. One of those you beat and just kind of sit back in your chair and go "Fuuuuck..." Story is dark as hell, but damn good. ON TOPIC: Resogun, which is much less depressing aside from all the humans I either fail to save or accidentally kill. Bosses seem to change attack patterns depending on the difficulty setting, which is cool and keeps it fresh. Also with the ship editor I made a ship with high agility that looks like a jam filled cookie and called it the Jammie Dodger, so that makes me happy.

Resogun. Looking forward to the ship-maker and co-op update. It's probably out already, but I've not gotten a chance to play it yet. Ship maker especially should be fun, going to try and see if I can make a little voxel Superman.
