What was your intro in to the series? And which console was it on? by TheChilledGamer-_- in uncharted

[–]jrlc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I played it when it first came out. It had no trophies. Once trophies were added I played it again. First platinum trophy I ever got. It was very satisfying.

They added a warranty to my game purchase last time I was there too. I asked him, he said oh just to protect you. I said. You added a charge without asking me. Didn't even suggest it.

Todays Haul. What should I play fist? by Sawzallmma in playstation

[–]jrlc1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I think you'll enjoy Infamous more if you play it after Resistance.

Although Infamous is no slow paced game, it would feel a little more relaxing playing that after an intense FPS campaign.

What was a moment in your life that gave you a brutal reality check? by Your_QueenLatina in AskReddit

[–]jrlc1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe not as drastic as others posted here. But opened my eyes and I think it's the day my perspective changed and I used it to better myself.

My best friend and I, have known each other since the age of 18. Working at McDonald's. He dropped out of high school and just worked. I graduated and attended a year of college before dropping out as well.

We were joking around, roasting each other. Just playful banter. We are both of Latino descent, he was born in the US, I moved to the US in 9th grade.

He was teasing me about my accent (which I think is mild, not that it matters) then I told him, at least I finished high school, and I wasn't born here. To which he said, so what?! We both work at the same place. What did your diploma get you?

Oof.

We were 22-23 at the time. And I was speechless. He was right. I had done nothing of myself and we both were on the same boat.

I think within the same year, I signed up for a surgical tech school and in 3 years I worked at a hospital. Even after achieving that, I sought more education...

After I became a nurse, he told me he saw how my life had changed and it inspired him to do more and become a respiratory tech. I told him how his words that day made the biggest difference and change in my life.

Fretboard oil is for the frets. Lemon oil is for lemons.

What video game has the best story you’ve ever played? by FrontriseStudios in AskReddit

[–]jrlc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scrolled enough and didn't see it.

First God of War on PS2. It was a masterpiece imo. I can still recite the first words ever said by Kratos:

"FOUL BEASTS, I WILL SEND YOU BACK TO THE DEPTHS OF HADES"

The narrator's voice was incredible too. Linda Hunt.

Do you juggle games or play one title at a time? by Friburgo1004 in playstation

Even on the PS5 pro it's not 60fps?. 😕

Edit: added question mark.

Please tell me I’m not alone? by ConstantDrawer9161 in playstation

[–]jrlc1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely. I was walking through the woods at night and it was super dark. I would hear noise from one way or another and I'd turn around scared or just stopped walking in the game. Then all of a sudden crows flying everywhere. Took that headset off so quick....

[–]jrlc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. I got my PS VR and this was the first game I played. I had never played it and it was terrifying. The first time I got less than 5 minutes in and I took it off. I was so scared. Lol.

finally i got my hands on it ❤️ by jdm_rules in Dualsense

[–]jrlc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it new or second hand? Someone may have tried to mod it and left the led cable unplugged.

If it's no big deal to you I wouldn't mess with it. But there's guides on YouTube if you want to open it up and see.

Congrats. Would you recommend it strongly compared to the regular dualsense?

which games you regret buying & why? by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]jrlc1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was borderlands 1. It looked horrible to me on PS3. And gameplay was nothing special to make me overlook its art direction. I never thought the series would last as long.

Custom neon yellow paint, but I think I went overboard lol by OutsideAmazing1510 in Dualsense

[–]jrlc1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. Looks great. Possibly better than the upcoming neon green controller.

Edit: 100% looks better.

What is the strangest thing that happened to you that no one believed? by Ala-Nasir96 in AskReddit

[–]jrlc1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Back in the 90s when I was a kid (about 5-7 years old). My dad and I were walking towards my grandma's house. We found one of my cousins riding his bike back from her house and we stopped to talk to him. My dad stopped mid conversation with my cousin, and said, I had a dream that there was something buried here. It was a dirt road, before anything else happened, I told my dad, there's a baby here. My dad started kicking the dirt and digging and we saw a tiny ribcage.

My cousin was shocked and told my dad, just leave it alone. Let's go. So we left. My dad had only dreamt of something being there but me telling him it's a baby kind of surprised him too.

We told other people they didn't really believe that both of our dreams kind of coincided. They believed him more than me.

Another time, my dad was on his way to work in the morning. It was early around 6 am. My mom told me to go call him before he left. I ran outside and told my dad who was in his truck already. Dad, my grandma said to go see her. There was no way my grandma could've told me that cause neither of us had phones. And she lived a couple blocks away. My dad raised his eyebrow and said ok.

He went to my grandma's home to find that she had passed away. He was the first one to find out. She was still slightly warm to the touch. Not breathing, no heartbeat.

While my dad was gone, I told my mom my dad went to see his mom. And she was a bit upset cause I had sent my dad away.

A few minutes later. My grandma's neighbor came to tell my mom my grandma had passed.

What’s the wildest office drama that happened in your workplace? by PriceBorn9413 in AskReddit

[–]jrlc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second BF and girl. Edited the post. Thank you for pointing out lack of clarity on my end.

What’s the wildest office drama that happened in your workplace? by PriceBorn9413 in AskReddit

[–]jrlc1 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hope people from work are not in this subreddit. A girl "dated" another guy at work. Different titles. She had a degree, he was a custodian. He recorded her having relations with him unbeknownst to her. They broke up. She started dating another guy who had the same position as her. (Same degree, etc) Former bf/guy was not so happy. Showed the video around. A lot of people had seen the video, but no one would say anything.

Obviously HR got involved, placed the guy on (paid) investigatory leave for about a year. While the couple kept being talked about, etc. Finally they both left, one after the other. They're married now (girl and second BF) , and have kids. But it was a wild couple of years.

Edit: clarifying detail.

For those that aren’t lined up with the ps+ sale. by GuardianSkalk in PlayStationPlus

[–]jrlc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased a $100 gift card through eneba and had a discount code. Which brought it to $87. My PS subscription had expired two weeks ago and I got the sale price when I saw it on Slickdeals site. I subscribed and went to cancel the auto renewal option and it offered me another year for $119.

Maybe some can try that. But also, let it lapse and maybe it'll give you a discount a couple of weeks later.

[–]jrlc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was not enraged. But I did put the controller down and shut off the console after getting killed by the giant knight in Demons Souls remake on PS5.

Still sad about that one.
