Oh, why did you abandon the Samsung TV? If there is a better TV, I don't need it.

Years ago. It was a 65" 720p set, I bought a 73" 1080p Mitsu. Overall the Samsung was a better quality set, but they stopped making them.

I love my little (only 32 in.) Samsung TV, even though I know it's watching me back. Maybe I love it BECAUSE it's watching me back. Even when it interrupts me to ask if I want to update something, I love it. I just say, "Aww... you're so cute when you try to talk to me".
The big LG TV in the living room is stupid and I could never love a stupid TV.

Grief titles were kinda like early access and pay for beta games. I might want one, but I sure ain't paying 50 dollars for one. You need to lower the price of your buggy, untested grief titles!

I'll issue you a promissary not for $50, payable in 90 days. If it isnt paid by then, you can keep the note.

I have every confidence that YOU could give him one, Trippy, and find a way to make it stick!
Also... this week I am playing Creativerse with my sister.

So, I downloaded 1TB of games onto my laptop before coming out here...but now I don't know what to play, so I'm just fooling around with World of Tanks at 140 ping.

I'm thinking that "grief title" is a euphemism for virginity.
You lost your virginity on January 10th. That should be your grief title.

Semi-related: right now on Steam (08/19) there's a sale on Capcom titles, so all 46 or however many versions of Resident Evil are on sale. I might pick one of the <10.00 ones up if I can discern which one supposed to be the "best". And Street Fighter(s) of course.

Finally picked up a PS4, which is clearly the actual reason they delayed FFXV. Started playing Destiny which isn't too bad. Not sure if I'll do the raids but the story missions and strikes have been good so far (lv ~15ish). Also picked up Last of Us which I know nothing about, but it was like the highest rated Playstation game so I figured I should at least try it (and it was cheap).
So now I'm currently making a list of Playstation games I missed and probably should play since I skipped PS3 as well. Next up is maybe Bloodborne and maybe Beyond Two Souls/Heavy Rain? If anyone has any recommendations on smaller games or jRPGs that are PS only, feel free.
My Resident Evil Game list FWIW:
Good: RE RE2 RE4 RE Code Veronica X
Decent: RE3 (if you like being chased) RE5 (if you have a co-op partner)
"Eh": RE6 RE Revelations RE Revelations 2 (the speed run arcade mode is pretty fun though)
I haven't played RE0 yet, but I should :D

I played 1 through 3 and enjoyed them all (even if three was an obvious lack luster milk attempt compared to the first two). Just looked at the wiki. The list of resident evil games that have come out since then is daunting and scary.

I don't really like survival horror but I liked RE4 quite a bit.

I played the RE remake and zero on the GC and loved them.
Tried 4 on the PC, hated it.
I actually like the original controller layout and camera. But I'm a cinematography ho.

The Disgaea and Persona series are both (mostly) PS exclusive, and some of the best JRPGs out there. Disgaea you can start with 3, 4 5 (or older, if you like) but I wouldn't play D2 without playing the original. Persona you can start with 3 or 4.

I want to add that I have a deep love of Digital Devil Saga. I'll let you know right off that you need to obtain both 1 and 2 since they are half of the same story. I mean, the second one isn't a sequel, it's a continuation.
Shadow Hearts is fucking amazing, as well.

Yet, I'm the one with the digital devil saga tattoo.

The World's Worst Game: Curry or Covid

So I played through Tharsis a few times; finally beat it with two surviving crew members (could have saved the third who stayed behind with better forethought). It's a pretty fun little timewaster, even when you get hosed by the dice.

No, I saw a bunch of games on PS Now not realizing that was a monthly service. Looks like unless you do that ($20 seems pretty steep...) there's considerably less available that I thought. There's still a few of the bigger games that have been moved over to PS4 at least. I have Shadow Hearts on PS2, been ages since I've played it though. Maybe I can find the PS2 versions of Devil Summoner on the cheap. I have one of the Persona Games on PSP (I think the first?) but looks like I'll have to wait for 5 as far as the PS4 goes. I'll check out Disgaea but I remember thinking it looked like it might be a bit too much like FF Tactics.

Persona 3 came out on PSP, and is worth playing there (better than the PS2 version).

I'll check out Disgaea but I remember thinking it looked like it might be a bit too much like FF Tactics. I cannot recommend Shadow Hearts: Covenant enough. It is probably the best jRPG I've ever played for any system. It'll make you laugh, cry, and wonder why Japanese people are so fucking weird. I do recommend playing Shadow Hearts first, although it's far less polished and it's a bit difficult if you're as chromatically challenged as I am. Covenant improves greatly on every aspect of the first, except the ending it chose as canon from the first. The third game does not exist, despite what you might read on the internet. IT. DOES. NOT. EXIST. Heh. Heavy Rain. Such dreadful voice work on that one. As for what I'd recommend among what's been mentioned: I preferred Persona 3 to 4, although both are excellent. Disgaea 1 and 2 are both great, although I'm partial to 2. Beyond that they just keep adding shit that I don't think improve the games. To pick a nit though, neither Disgaea or Persona are jRPGs. Disgaea is a sRPG (or tactial RPG) and Persona is just Persona.
