What Are You Playing? February 22nd, 2015

PlayStation Vita might take flack from the masses for its abundance of ports and remakes, but I sure am enjoying the hell out of Borderlands 2 on it. The image quality of screenshots looks kinda shitty, but the visuals are way good on the actual Vita system. Dat OLED.

I'm not high on Gunzerker, however. I should have picked something else. He's so short that I can't identify some items from treasure chests, and his voice clips are horrible. He sounds like he's dropping a shit the size of a coffee table every time he melee attacks something.

I picked assassin on PS3, and I guess the thing allows me to import characters, but that's my multiplayer character. Playing solo with him wouldn't feel right. I might start over with something else. Is Siren good for solo? Commando seems too generic and it doesn't sound like something I want to be. I want to go commando but not be a commando.

Sadly, my main PSN region is Japan and the game is the NA version, so it doesn't look like I can use the DLC codes that it came with unless I want to reset my system and go through a bunch of crap. No Psycho for me. 🙁

I'm also in the final chapter of Yakuza 5 (just taking a time out) and will polish it off any minute now. It's been fun, but it does indeed feel like it's time for that one to wrap up.
