The only other VGM soundtracks I own are from classic RPGs. I do throw them on once in a while for the nostalgia bump.
It makes great 'I'm doing some work and need a little energy' music.

I will say I have enjoyed Spencer Seim's side project The Advantage.
Hearing them do DuckTales Moon level is great!

Funny, I’ve been listening to Xenoblade and Final Fantasy tracks as ”get-sh*t-done” music at work lately.
What other RPGs with great soundtracks would you recommend? That’s honestly one of the main considerations for me when deciding whether to get into a time-sink type of game.

I own the Skies of Arcadia and Panzer Dragoon Saga soundtracks, really for nostalgia reasons. Love them.
Persona 4’s soundtrack is also great.
Finished the main story in Pokemon Legends of Arceus this morning and got the games credits.
After the credits the main quest returns to research and filling out the pokedex. Also a lot more research tasks become available. So that's good news for keeping people busy with more game play.
Is it just me, or does it take you all a few tries to beat each boss after some trial and error on what the best approach to attack and dodge is.
I was watching some videos on YouTube this morning and everyone made clearing the bosses look incredible easy and accomplished it record time. They were like full on offense never getting hit. Me, I'm dodging more than tossing balms...
Lol. Do I just suck that much or are these people just that good.

I got what I need to start building my new PC.
I have to stay with my old video card for now since prices of those are out of control, it's a 2060, so not all that new or great, but should be fine for now, I play at 1080 for now anyway.
The biggest upgrade will be the CPU - going from an Intel 6600k to an AMD 5800x. To do this, I pretty much needed new everything.
I'll be throwing in an older 970 graphics card and letting my daughter use this old one when I'm done with it.

hey, at least you’re building in a nice, roomy ATX case. I did a Mini-ITX 5800x/3080 build (got lucky on the GPU back when they first released) and lemme tell ya, it’s tight in there.

My old one I'm replacing is a Micro ATX and it wasn't all that great to build with, so I wouldn't want to go smaller than this.
With this new build it was time to go back to a regular mid tower.

Honestly this case was very well designed in terms of space, but there was definitely planning and order-of-operations involved.
Did not enjoy installing the mobo and CPU and then realizing that the second m.2 slot was on the bottom side.
I got Windows 11 installed...now for everything else.
There's some cable management I still need to do, but I think I'm gonna get some new cable extensions for the 24 pin and PCI-E cables.
And that USB 3 cable is a tight fit down on the bottom of the mobo - I like when these are on the side.

I do not have enough space left on my PS5 to install Horizon Forbidden West without either upgrading the storage or uninstalling some games.
Being tax season I figured I would pick up a SSD and drop it in.
I went with the WS_Black SSD. Which is the top choice for SSD upgrades for 2022 for the PS5
Amazon product ASIN B08KFRFL8F
Also, got to love amazon. I pulled the trigger and bought it today on my Amazon Prime card while waiting for my tax return because there was only 1 left in stock. Delivery expected Friday 2/11.
As soon as I ordered it it's now listed as in stock, is $9 cheaper and has free delivery tomorrow from prime if I order within the next 7 hours.
Major eye roll here.
Now I'm just trying to figure out what I need for a heatsink.
The top heatsink for the PS5 is the Sabrent m.2 NVMe Heatsink for the PS5 Console.
Amazon product ASIN B09HSQQWCL
However, on amazon I am seeing it's frequently bought with an additional heatsink.
Glad to see it's frequently bought with the SSD I ended up with, but I'm confused by the additional heatsink.
Do I need both?

Boomerang Fu has taken our household into a firm grip and may not let go for awhile.
played through some games recently, all on Switch:
Murder By Numbers, which is really just Picross with a story. but I love Picross, so I enjoyed it.
Guacamele 1, I got 1&2 on sale recently. I played 1 back in the day (I believe on the 360) but never played 2, so figured I'd replay 1 before starting 2.
after beating those I started Deadly Premonition 1, which I have never played before... and quite frankly I have very little idea what the hell is going on... but so far I'm enjoying it, Zach!

Deadly Premonition is weird as heck! Its supposed to be very inspired by Twin Peaks - and has a lot of references.
Wow, the price really has come down on the WD_Black 2TB SSD.
A year ago it was over $900. In the past 30 days its been as low as $259.99 and is currently at $308.
People who upgraded their PS5 last year as soon as the update was released passed up on the 2TB SSD because it was still over $600

Wondering whether to continue with Sable. Jumped into it for a couple of hours last night, and while I had fun, a lot of it was spent exploring without purpose. With my gaming time being limited, I might switch to something with a story…

I had this same problem with it when I played it soon after it came out and I still haven’t gone back to it since.
