I was really mostly kidding. It was hard enough and nerve racking enough doing it with the shotgun and the jetpack. If I had to carry that useless eggplant around in Hell I think that I'd crack.

I hear ya.

Every time I've gotten past Olmec, I had to cheat and kill a Shopkeeper for his Jet Pack.

To get it legit AND have enough bombs to beat Olmec is nigh impossible for me.

W/ an Eggplant?

Might never happen on my end.

I've only seen it once and that was on a highlight from Bananasaurus Rex.

If any of us here can pull it off, I'd love to see it.

Putz'ing around on Twitch watching other's streams and I start up another run of Spelunky.

35 minutes later, Jet-Pack/Climbing Gloves/Spring Shoes/a Compass/Spike Boots/X-Ray Specs/and a jar of Spider Jizz later and I "win" the game again.

$361025 total in riches and now I have the option to either practice going on Hell runs or wait for Spelunky to drop on PS4 finally and just start streaming my misadventures.

EDIT: Out of 683 tries, I've only "won" three times.

Fuck.

Started Metro: Last Light yesterday. That game is gorgeous on pc even with some of the bells and whistles turned off. I decided to play on Ranger Hardcore mode, and boy is that a little getting used to. I've probably passed a lot of ammo since there are almost no indicators for items in the environment, but at the same time, it's really immersive.

LOL. Considering this might be the last NCAA football in maybe ever, I would never sell or trade my copy in, let alone give it away.

I don't plan on ever giving mine away either...but I figured someone might've gotten pissed at it by now haha.

Anybody looking to give away their PS3 copy of NCAA 14? Trying to get a copy for my best friend so we can do an online dynasty together, but I'm not trying to spend $30 on it haha.

1001 Spikes or Transistor... which should I give a shot?

Sorry that I just saw this now. Depends on what you like. Transistor has a pretty great story, despite its minimalist storytelling. 1001 Spikes is great if you're into abusing yourself.

I'd say the better gameplaying experience for the average person is Transistor, personally. Both are great in their own way though.

Man, who would have thought that the best game of this current gen, after almost 1 year, would be a freaking Wolfenstein game.

Well, now that I've finished up Watch_Dogs, I need to decide on what I'm going to dive into tomorrow night. Trying to decide between Child of Light, Wind Waker HD or firing up something on Steam and breaking in the new PC with something other than iRacing. Decisions, decisions...

I jumped into Spelunky last night for the first time in over a month. Did the daily challenge first, beat Olmec in 21 minutes with 300+ k in gold. Immediately fired up another game and....made it to Yama and freaking blew it again. With SO much money too after spamming the Ghost trick. I think that I was around 700k when I bit it.

As if I needed another reminder that the Steam Summer Sale is approaching, a new "Mystery" trading card set is at the top of the badge page. A deal for Dishonored GOTY is the only thing I'll be actively looking for though.
