When I beat the Hollow Knight, I only had a slightly higher percentage completed. 73% I think. So I can probably guess which areas you've missed. One is an entirely optional section that I think was just tossed out there for DLC at some point. To get everything you need, you've got a couple nasty battles ahead, and a genuinely nightmarish platforming segment. And of course, that final battle with The Radiance. Anyway, good luck to you. Lots of fun ahead still.

Looking forward to the nightmarish platforming section.  yes  Can't believe we haven't had a section that relies on the double jump becoming available again after hitting an enemy.  So much potential for chaining double jumps above an abyss.

I've also not encountered anything that seems like added on DLC content.  I found one key that could or could not lead to this and haven't headed out to the colloseum of Foolz.

I also refrained from dream-nailing innocent lingering spirits, as it didn't seem right.  I was expecting this choice to impact the ending somewhat, but that doesn't seem to be the case at all.

There are five total endings available, and two of them are virtually impossible to get unless you are specifically trying to get them. And really you don't want those anyway, because they are just another set of bad endings. The other three, are dependent upon how the final battle goes.

so the moral of the story here is stab everybody you want with the dream nail. No one is hurt by it, and it actually does reveal some interesting things from time to time.

6 stars left in SMGalaxy. My God I'd forgotten about purple coins on disappearing tiles.

R.I.P.  This one was surprising to me.  I may not have been keeping up with how he was doing lately.

I just ordered something from an online retailer in the line of Amazon, but much smaller and wanted to share something about the design of their delivery vans.  Apparently the upper managment of Coolblue have a sense of humour and enjoy some Mario Kart from time to time:

Motorrijder licht gewond bij ongeluk Rode Kruislaan | Nieuws op  Westlanders.nu

A bit inappropriate perhaps, but sadly this picture of a van and a motorcycle crash was the only image available that clearly shows the back of the van.  Don't feel too bad though, the article states that the motorcyclist was only lightly injured in the accident.  Perhaps he skid over a banana peel.

Got all stars in Mario Galaxy. That was fun. I did find the game easier than I remember. Probably because I played it before a lot and mapping the attack to a button makes the timing easier. Ad ever I left purple coins on Luigi disappearing tiles as the final challenge. Now I was to play Galaxy 2.

11pm sitting on the toilet. My guts are like a coiled rope being twisted. I feel equal amount of need to throw up or release an almighty shit. Neither is happening. And I sit here in pain, spitting saliva into a bin. This is what a McDonald's cheeseburger did to me.

Seems that as to move forward in Hollow Knight I need to amass 1800 essence? Seems like a huge undertaking just for a second ending.  Hrm

Edit: it's also a missed opportunity that not absorbing the infection is not an option after beeting the hollow knight. I would have let it run wild if I could.

Bulletstorm is okay. Wish it had gyro aiming. Graphics are great, very linear design so far though. I find the kill system a bit gimmicky and it doesn't really interest me much. Still it's a fairly decent game so far, especially given the £6 price.

I got a kick out of the humour in the game.

That was the main draw the game in my opinion. Absolutely and utterly juvenile humor. It was wonderful.

That said, I actually enjoyed the combat as well. Headshots are boring. Thinking up creative ways to kill enemies made the game so much more interesting than a standard FPS.

Indeed. I’ve never heard, nor heard since the phrase, “Fungal rimjob.” LOL

Also really enjoyed the combat and killing foes in various extreme ways.

Beginning of the end for PS3, PSP, and Vita PSN support

I posted this mainly just because just a couple weeks ago I actually logged onto my PS3 and checked out PSN to see if there were any sales or something of the likes still going on there. It looks like a lot of companies had quietly pulled their games a while back. There definitely is not as much there as there once was.

The PS1 classics were still around, and that is good to see though. With all the misstep Sony took with the PS3 (i.e. updating the firmware every 2 days) I will always give them credit for nailing the price for their older games. $6 for PS1 games, $10 for PS2 games. After Nintendo went completely Nintendo with virtual console pricing, It was refreshing to see older games offered at a reasonable and in some case genuinely good price.

That reminds me, I'm debating picking up a couple old Square RPGs. We didn't get them on the PS4 and I have my doubts We will see them on the PS5, so this might be the final chance to pick up some of their lesser known games.

I bought a couple PSN games on my PS3 a month ago. No sales. No updates. St least all of my digital purchases are still available 👍, unlike the Wii eShop. Hrm

I’ve purchased a number of PS1 and PS2 classics on my PS3, mostly Square-Enix and Capcom stuff. There’s still a few I’d like to get so I may turn on my PS3 and try to get them.

Vampyr is pretty fun.  I'm really enjoying it, especially the setting and atmosphere.
