Jump on top of something and let them have a taste of mining laser. They erupt in a satisfying green spew.

If you have something to rocket jump on top of to blast them, you're gold. Just jump off after the mob has subsided and repeat.

I haven't played a Fire Pro game since the PS2 days. Didn't find out about the PS3 port until a few months ago. Pretty much haven't given 2 damns about wrestling in over a decade. I was late to the PS3 party and didn't get mine until 2012, bought a used WWE game on that same night. That game has never been removed from it's case. I'll play WWE Champions on my tablet, but that's as much of a wrestling game as Angry Birds. I try to keep up to see who died, but that's just a depressing reminder of life passing by. But every time I see a new video for this game I think maybe it's time to get back on the horse. Somebody talk me down. If I had that clip of Pacino from Godfather III I'd post it here.

You can find some interesting side quests from aliens you meet in trade depots. I lucked out on my initial base build. The base itself is just a 4x4 room, but the planet is lush and there seems to be a body of water at every turn. I think I'll be building my "castle" on this planet sometime soon. Unless I happen upon a planet with no sentinels.

Yesterday I got to the point where I got the freighter, built a command center, and started my first mission. While mining on an icy planet I found a cave system that was much bigger than I expected. Got lost, but never panicked because I had a ton of supplies in my inventory which caused me to miss out on numerous Vortex Cubes. Eventually had to use my mining laser to dig a way to the surface, a la Minecraft. It was a trip being in that cave and hearing the footsteps of the massive beasts living their lives on the surface. Wife is out of town tonight, so I'll probably be on for a spell to see what's what.

At least we know it's not a shot for shot remake.

So I am 5-ish hours into NMS and am realizing the game I am playing is a combination of Gazillionaire and Minecraft. I think I picked the normal setting to start out, but I did die within the first 5 minutes because I spawned in a radioactive ravine. So far my most notable accomplishment has been the uncanny ability to navigate into the side of the space station. Twice. Loving it so far.

To me, the entire game feels like a whale event these days.

Best Buy has their Black Friday in July sale going on. No great shakes to see, but I did order 3 games. Got Dirt 4 for $16 because I figure the next Gran Turismo will be PS5. The new hype on No Man's Sky suckered me in and for $16 it won't be a great loss if I wind up hating the game. Tomb Raider Definitive for $7.xx will get me in the mood for the new game later in the year. I've already got the last Tomb Raider game in my "to play" pile for the XB1.

Damn, is The Black Madonna in GTA now? And was the last DJ Harvey Weinstein or James Murphy?

The trailer with Shadow Geist looks good. I have no idea about the rest.

Really wasn't going to pick anything up on Prime Day, but ran across Gundam Versus (PS4) for $15. Videos look good, but was wondering if anyone here has it and can recommend the game.

Too bad there'll be no Switch version so you can't play count the framerate.

Lots of new controllers on ebay for around $30. I've got a controller with a battery that doesn't take a charge and I'm faced with replacing battery or going for a new one.

If anyone sees "XxEATEROFNIPSxX - LSB" online, put a rocket in his ass and tell him I said "Duh". He'll know what you mean.

Y&T are huge in Japan. In recent years they have had packed shows playing here in Nashville. Saw them back in 1987 or so in the #2 slot on a Bon Jovi/Y&T/RATT tour.

Never forget we need to nurture our digital backlogs just like our physical backlogs.

Isn't the "Bigger, Meaner Predator" bit from Predators (2010), a film I liked, which they were trying to distance themselves from? Keegan-Michael Key ain't gonna be able to comic relief this flick to something good.

My feelings exactly. The first trailer got me hyped, but the second showed too much and made me think it might as well be called "Predator V: Electric Boogaloo". It almost left me hoping a Xenomorph would jump out and start chomping EVERYONE. But we know how those crossovers went. ?

LoveMonster1970, I'm in the crew.

No, PS4.

Guess I'll be starting over online for the third time. Make room for the level one pea-shooter!

Best Buy has GTA V for $16 for GCU members. I'm struggling to justify buying this game for a third time (PS3, XB1, & PS4), but I think of how it might look on the Pro. I haven't played this game in months, so I must be nuts for wanting to give Rockstar some more money.

Not shocking. It's all been a farce since AEnima.
