| JonThePenguin 04/20/21 11:24:12 AM #479 | Cavedweller2000 posted... Got the Platinum for the vanilla version of Liberation on vita. What a weird "multiplayer" mode it had. Simply consisted of pressing x for about 10 hoursI always wondered what that games MP was like. Ive only got a couple achievements left in the entire AC series on 360 and theyre all in Black Flag multiplayer. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 02/16/21 1:14:40 PM #57 | mnkboy907 posted... Putting the focus on released games is interesting. Have they ever put something like that in their announcement before? Smash and probably Animal Crossing updates makes sense, but they're the only two games still expecting new content. I wonder if there's gonna be a surprise update for something older like Mario Kart. Oh, I could also easily see a Ring Fit expansion.The wording is available games like Smash AND games coming to Switch in the first half of 2021 with no indication of what the split there is going to be. So I wouldnt worry too much about that. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 02/13/21 8:05:52 PM #18 | UltimaterializerX posted... Is this a totally new game?Nope. In Japan, there were two versions of the original Nier released, Replicant and Gestalt. They were mostly the same game, but the main character was different - Replicant starred a pretty boy who was brother to one of the other main characters, while Gestalt featured an older guy who was her father instead. They released Replicant on PS3 and Gestalt on 360 over there. Then when they brought the game Stateside, it was Gestalt on both platforms. So this new rerelease is the first time Replicant is being localized. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 02/12/21 9:16:12 PM #499 | Not_an_Owl posted... Congested worlds never accept new characters. Standard and preferred worlds sometimes don't accept new characters - it depends on how many people are currently connected. For future reference, if you want to make a character on a popular (but not congested) server, try doing it either early in the day or late at night. Attempting to make a character anywhere between after school hours to whenever most people go to bed it going to be a crapshoot, but if you can stay up (or wake up) at like, 2 in the morning you should encounter no issues.Interesting. Well, he didnt seem to stick with it for long, but Ill keep it in mind for when my daughter gets old enough to join us. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 02/07/21 4:23:19 PM #27 | Minecraft is okay I guess. What really annoyed me was they initially sold a five-episode season, then the main story wrapped in four and the fifth opened a new storyline, with another three-episode pass continuing things from there.

| JonThePenguin 01/25/21 12:32:59 PM #17 | Thanks everyone. Wanglicious posted... i didn't even know a three-chambered heart existed in humans. the fuck. Birth defect. Essentially the wall between my ventricles didnt form. You can imagine how much fun that can be. Had a couple surgeries when very young (one at two weeks, one at 2.5 years) to ensure my survival, which seem to have worked out pretty well so far. W and I went to get retested yesterday, thanks to the exposure we had to X between when we got Stephs result and when we got his. Hopefully we stayed negative since then. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

I'm pulling for you and your family.Ohio guidelines put me eligible on the 25th, assuming they count a single-ventricle heart as severe congenital or developmental disorders.

| JonThePenguin 01/23/21 9:06:18 PM #1 | Really weird being in the same house as your spouse but communicating almost exclusively over phone. Weve set her up in our daughters room since W (our daughter) and I both tested negative. Its been...well Im mostly just glad shes still alive; she got rushed to the ER from her job on Monday and was there until last night thanks to a pulmonary embolism. X on the other hand is having the time of his life; we normally control his computer time but since hes almost completely confined to his room weve just been leaving it unlocked for him. His positive test came in yesterday morning. Hes been completely asymptomatic, thank goodness. So now were just doing everything we can to keep the two positive of us away from me and W. Especially me; I have a three-chambered heart so were pretty sure COVID would be something close to a death sentence. Joy. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |

| JonThePenguin 01/21/21 12:48:33 PM #7 | kevwaffles posted... I'm sure that's the actual character's age for Buffy relative to the show only.There was an indeterminate amount of time between seasons 7 and 8, long enough for Dawn to be in college. Not sure exactly how long passed up to the season 12 finale, but thats all moot anyway because the license went to a new publisher after that and theyve been doing a complete reboot set in the high school years. --- JonThePenguin http://www.backloggery.com/main.php?user=erunion |
