Posting for posterity sake, let's see how well this ages.

I mean.... I'm still thinking about buying an NGage so, same vibes man 🤣

Weapons (the movie(2025)) good.

Amazing pacing.
Loved the structure.
Fantastic score evocative of John Carpenter, Akira Yamaoka, Disasterpiece and also some Trance Surf in there too.

Don't let yourself get spoiled on anything, try as everyone on the internet might have these past two months.

It had a decent/cult following on Vita for sure. The servers were up until the end of 2021 even with people still playing and helping eachother.

Hoping there's a similar camaraderie on this remastered version.

Loved it on the Vita, PS5 physical copy is almost here from PlayAsia.

Tonight's October Watch-A-Thon movie was 2024's Exhuma!

This was our second viewing and now technically an annual viewing at that, but it absolutely held up and was still fantastic.

If you haven't seen this gem of a genre-bending horror mystery, you definitely owe it to yourself to check it out.

MC Fright (Wright) @nerdyisland.bsky.social · 2d

🤣 haha absolutely.

If we we're talking Zero Dark Thirty JACKED Pratt? Maybe.

Modern day Pratt?, absolutely not a chance.

When your PlayStation Vita accidentally tugs and snags on something and you drop it causing your long out of production third party 3-in-1 Vita/PSP cable to break a smidge...

It's late, I'm not gonna fix fix it right now, but I don't hate this look either 🤣

MC Fright (Wright) @nerdyisland.bsky.social · 2d

Seriously. Fuck those people.

Sitting in a chair, playing video games and socializing with strangers for hours, and being nice and interesting IS A GODDAMN JOB!

Tonight on the October Watch-A-Thon, is 1941's "The Wolf Man"!!

If you can't tell by my fall avatar, The Wolf Man is one of my favorites from the Universal Monster Collection.

Lon Chaney Jr. is perfect as the loveable oaf who succumbs to fear, paranoia, & ultimately, the curse of the Full Moon.

Finished RE: Village finally today.

Woo.

What a hand-ass-waving story that was.

Normally RE games have files upon files to explain why things are and how they are or at least pose possibilities.

Village? Nah, just jot down what is, not how.

Great gameplay, but some parts are not fun at all.

Tonight's October Watch-A-Thon Movie was The Conjuring(2013)!

Still genuinely creepy as all get out, fantastically contrasted by the safe familial scenes, as well as Drew & Brad.

Also that score, whoooooo, that creepy ass score.

MC Fright (Wright) @nerdyisland.bsky.social · 4d

Forgot to post last night.

Night Four was Phantom of the Opera(1943)!

Tonally different from Universal's other classic monster movies, but definitely a feast for the senses.

Traumatic, beautiful, exciting and between the Baritone & the Detective, absolutely hilarious!

Also had to go through a bunch of RB1-3 DLC that for some reason didn't transfer over to PS4/5 and was on the store labelled as "Free".

MC Fright (Wright) @nerdyisland.bsky.social · 5d

Hey @jurge.site heads up, I was able to find more Rock Band tracks on the console store than pulled up on the app or website.

I didnt see any albums pull through those but most are still available, also "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler isn't on the app or website.

Found & bought 😅

Hey holy shit haha, that's where I left off today too!

Yeah that's my brick wall right now, so many conversations online about NASs, Laptops with external, or a NUC.

Too many options 🤣

MC Fright (Wright) @nerdyisland.bsky.social · 6d

What do you use for storage?

I've thought about backing my movies, tv shows etc up on a server for a couple years now.

The government is in full shutdown and the Republicans are refusing to call the House back into session.

Want to know why?

Because we have secured the final vote on releasing the Epstein Files and they don’t want it out.

Call GOP and tell them to swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social.

Night Two on the October Watch-A-Thon, Creature from the Black Lagoon(1954)!

A slight sense of progressivism in the beginning, fantastic cinematography, great costume design, and the underwater sequences!!

Creature is still amazing 71 years later.

I don't think Harmonix is on BlueSky, but I'm thanking them anyway for an absolute wonderful platform of music, friendship and loads of fun.

Rock Band lasted 18 years officially, and it will last far more unofficially.

Purchased my last set of DLC today, & now have my final #.
