I understand backloggery can be whatever you want it to be

I'm torn on even adding subcription games like Xbone Games With Gold Games (You totally own the free 360 games but the Xbone ones you only "own them" as long as you have XBL)

I don't "own" them

but I have access to them

and listing games I have access to definitely is handy in situations like this!
I only list the ones I actually intend to play.

also theres an ownership option to show them as being part of a subscription so you can use that

What PS3 game should I focus on while working from home?










For context, my WFH desk is right next to the TV that my PS3 is hooked up to, and my job is primarily based around taking calls, so there's a fair amount of unproductive downtime. So what better time than now to try and clear a little bit of the backlog I've accumulated?

Theoretically, as long as I am able to set up a remote desktop or something on my work computer, I could easily work from home. However, all I have at home is a cheap tablet, which is already running slow, and is probably not capable of running any remote login software I would need. Silver lining I guess, is that maybe I get a new cheap laptop out of all this!
My company's getting around that by having us take our desktops home for it.

I'm not being forced to work from homebut I'm one of the ones who's been given the offer to start doing so tomorrow (as a test in case they do have to make everyone). Though office rumor says that offer may have been premature and it might be delayed, so I currently have no idea.

I simply don't stick my alternate forms together that way

my first 1-890 slots are all reserved for just one of each pokemon, then other boxes hold alt groupings, like a specific Unown box (which contains a dupe of the Pokemon I have in the livingdex slot 201), an Alola box, and a Galar box
Yeah, this.

In gen 8/Pokemon Home, they (apparently) give you an original color Magearna (previously unobtainable in past games) for storing a complete 890 living dex in Home.

(I say apparently because there were some questions about the exact trigger for getting the gift, but it's like 99% confirmed at this point)
Is this something I should already be getting? Because I have the 890 in Home but haven't gotten any new Magearna out of it.

Total number of votes if we looked at just the Top 30 Pokemon for each generation:

Gen 1 - 731203
Gen 2 - 666184
Gen 3 - 679819
Gen 4 - 644209
Gen 5 - 529559
Gen 6 - 636377
Gen 7 - 597601
Gen 8 - 619399

Gen 1's Top 30 still has more votes than all of the other generations, but I think Gen 1's votes are more heavily concentrated at the top compared to the later generations. There's also the possibility that more people chose to put in votes for Gen 1, and some people may have chosen to not vote for the later generations. I'm not sure if it was possible to not vote for certain generations, or if the voting form actually required one vote for each generation before it would accept the votes.
You could vote for as many or few generations as you wanted one time each day of the voting period. You were presented with a button for each gen that would then take you into the full list of Pokmon from that generation in National Pokdex order.

The tower you found is your source for Groudon/Kyogre/Rayquaza, as I recall, though I don't remember how you activate them.

If you hunt around the Internets there might be a way to get yourself event access, which would give you some neat story stuff like revealing why Giovanni didn't run off to join Team Rocket, and also confirming your rival's true identity. Also the requisite rare/mythical Pokmon and whatnot. I have no idea what that would actually entail though.

Oh, is that what this is? I'll likely hit it up then.

Just feels wierd that they would hit up a Kickstarter for a port immediately after getting financial backing from and enormous Chinese conglomerate.
They address that in the FAQs on the KS page.

What about the recent news of capital investment in PlatinumGames?

Although PlatinumGames has recently received a capital investment from an outside firm, our plans for The Wonderful 101: Remastered precede that agreement, and capital received from the investment will not be used to fund the development costs associated with the project.

Both free and premium options are available. Premium is $16 for a year and includes 6000 storage slots, while Free only gets 30. (No, that's not a typo. Thirty slots.) GTS and National Pokdex are both through Home; I haven't seen any confirmation on whether stored Pokmon can hold items so you can perform trade evolutions or gift stuff.

When you start up ReMind it makes you select a save file with a completed game.

The first time you try to save in ReMind it recommends you save a new file for it. The save file has a little "DLC" stamp on it and so far I haven't been able to go to any other worlds in ReMind. It seems like a pretty linear story episode. I'm thinking Limit Cut is going to recommend you do the same thing.

If you have to select a completed ReMind file for Limit Cut then I'm a little worried I'm going to have to level up my main file and then do ReMind again so I can start at Limit Cut at max level.
I knew that first bit, yeah, I'm into Scala ad Caelum myself. From what I've read since, once you've finished ReMind you can choose whether you want to load into the main game or Limit Cut (press square instead of X when loading to return to main game).

Random question, once you finish ReMind can you go back into the rest of the worlds or are you locked into Limit Cut? (And I guess same question regarding LC, once you've done that are you locked into the secret episode?)
