The Arcadium's Random Thoughts

[old pig]

GTA online no longer recognizes my kills…I got out of bad sport a few months ago and noticed it…thought it was a temporary glitch…jumped on again just now and still it doesn’t add on to my stats when I kill someone

Anyone know a place to donate old games and videogame systems? I was cleaning out my garage and have a bunch of old systems (genesis, snes, saturn, ps1, etc.) and games.

Side scroller Ghost of Tsushima epic, mixture of the Mega Man X and Zero series and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night item and boss functionality.

is this the description of an actual game that’s out or a “wishlist” of game mechanics you’d like to see incorporated into a new one

Downloaded Assetto Corsa Competizione again. They must have made some changes from when I originally tried because gamepad feels much better. Of course it helps a lot that GT3 cars are meant to be extremely drivable anyway. This should hold me over until Forza comes out but I know the experiences won't be comparable.

2023 and beyond is as locked and loaded as much as Gamestop will allow it to be for me.

I can't preorder anything from the console manufacturers except for Zelda which I did. Once those become available, I'll take care of those.

Hogwarts Legacy, Dead Island 2 and the Star Wars game are just placeholders until the Collector's Edition of Street Fighter 6 can be preordered. I wanted a legendary Diablo but no physical so whatever. Same with Final Fantasy.

$1043.63 is the current tally.

I've fallen in love with the F1 game from Codemasters and with the newest one coming out this year plus Forza, I'm probably going to get a wheel. I don't know if I'll get the full setup but I'm probably going to bite on a wheel. Logitech G923 is likely to be the one. Other hardware is a Quest 3 if it drops. If Nintendo shadow drops new hardware this year, add that to the pile. 2023 is probably going to be a pricey year but that just means that it was a great year for gaming.

Updated through today.

2023 is going to be a really costly year. I did a sitdown, mapped out the games I think is going to drop this year that I want and realized that I needed to get to work because I am going to go hard in the paint.

That Ps5 dead space is just a money dump till something else appears. I'm going to have to get my G923 wheel from Amazon since Gamestop doesn't have it. I was going to wait till around Forza releases but whatever, I'll do it sooner than that. That and presumably the quest 3 will be my only hardware purchases this year. Legit, Zelda is the only 1st party game that I can preorder that I want. I've never been into Fire Emblem. I feel that these are repercussions of the Activision deal. The Show comes out every February, can't preorder it now.

I know, I'm whining, lol. However I just like to take care of things financially so it's out of sight, out of mind. I hate debts, be it substantial or trivial.

don’t know if im picking up Fire Emblem Engage or Forspoken this week, most likely not doing both. The latter has to get at least a 75 on MC for me to consider it.

Fire Emblem will most likely be mid to high 80’s

Naruto Shinobi strikers turned into a good game over the years.

So, I messed around with this briefly. With these two games.

I didn't know if I'd have to splurge for a chair but actually, this works. Now, to the games. It works in Forza Horizon 5 pretty well but since it's arcadey in nature, there is only so much that it is going to useful. Then I tried it on F1 22. At first I was
It felt better than FH5 but I wasn't getting what I thought it could do. Watched a quick video, learned that I had to manually select the wheel on the settings.

So, I went back to racing. Immediately, I felt the difference. So, I'm back to report

Straight up, I feel like I robbed Logitech with this only running 4 C-Notes. For what it sets out to do, it's one of the best peripherals I've have bought in my life. I've owned wheels before. PS2, Dreamcast and Xbox 360. It wasn't this, hell no it wasn't this.

Sumbytch is cold brehs.
