  1. Prikvačeni tweet

    Changing my profile each month to celebrate the 40th anniversary of a computer/gaming history landmark. February 1980: Video magazine (later republished in Electronic Gaming issue #1 in 1981) announces the first "Arkies" GOTY award winners, the first Game of the Year award ever.

  2. Another corporate mugging: "sure would be a shame if those discounts went away. Do what we say, and noone gets hurt."

  3. Found a better hiding spot this time. Uranus drops as much loot as The Warrior! He even dropped *two* Impetuous Hellfire SMGs, plus a purple rocket launcher in a nearby loot room that may be good. Also hit level 40.

  4. Borderlands 2: Turns out Uranus is already active after save+quite+reload for some reason. Tempted to just cheese it by dropping my turret repeatedly, but it would probably take forever.

  5. Went into Uranus fight not knowing what to expect, & got my butt kicked due to trying to hide instead of staying mobile - and probably due to pulling out my rocket launcher too early. Save+quit+reload means having to run the whole gauntlet again, because 2nd save pt still locked.

  6. Borderlands 2: Did another save+quit+reload in hopes of avoiding respawn fee, as I have around $2.5m, but was probably too late? Ran past the bottom floor enemies because I didn't feel like clearing them a third time (ugh). Fortunately this worked out okay.

  7. Got interrupted and had to save+quit. When I came back I couldn't find the button to make an elevator go back up; while I was messing around, the elevator came down on my head! Mystery solved, in the worst way possible.

  8. Spoiler: Apparently I also missed that Jack's orbital station Helios crash landed on Pandora during Tales from the Borderlands, as I'm now exploring it to get access to its "moonshot" cannon. Lilith and Tina showed up to help.

  9. I hope someone got a laugh out of my math fail before I deleted it.

  10. Borderlands 2: Yeah this Fight for Sanctuary DLC is a lot tougher than the base game. Had to stop using the Bee shield for now because enemies do twice as much damage as the shield has capacity. Sanctuary gets taken over, and Pandora is infected with mutagenic plants/spores.

  11. Yes, *I* understand the "keep your current *plan*" weasel words, but I wonder how many other people who got the $2/month deal on Hulu accidentally threw it away without realizing.

    That ending lmao!!! Exactly what I would want to do tbh.

  13. (Spoiler alert) Apparently the Fight for Sanctuary DLC is actually the chronologically last content in the series before BL3, taking place over half a decade past Jack's death. It seems that Scooter died in Tales from the Borderlands, & I had no idea because I haven't played it.

  14. My kids begged to play on their tablets, but now I want to take it off because all it is is people tricking each other into trading stupid virtual pets in exchange for real life tears.

    We just threw $1.3 trillion in tax cuts at giant corporations for doing absolutely nothing. Stop framing this sort of shit as heart warming.

  17. Been wanting to check in on the 1979 Buck Rogers TV show to see how badly it's aged, as I remember watching it a lot as a kid. Pleasantly surprised to find that it's now available for free (ad supported) on a free NBC streaming app. Doesn't even require a login account.

  18. Borderlands 2: Fight for Sanctuary enemies are around my level instead of a few below, so it's surprisingly more challenging - especially when my Bee shield goes down. Found a junk item that I'm not high enough level to use, for the first time in a LONG while.

  19. Did a couple of chest runs between the end of Hero's pass and the hidden lava chest in the last area... Nothing special though. Farmed the Warrior a couple times and got potential rocket launcher and sniper rifle upgrades, plus a bunch of eridium. Started Fight for Sanctuary DLC.

  20. FYI, in Gearbox' Opposing Force spinoff of Half-Life 1, you get a gun that is an alien fish, and one of the idle animations is petting the fish. It's a good fish.

  21. Finally beat the main quest. At level 36 it was laughably easy. Knocked Jack down in a couple seconds, then almost took out the Warrior with just rockets. I don't think I even took enough damage to bother throwing down my turret. No new loot worth mentioning. On to the DLC!
