I noticed that without trying on a first run I usually get about 50% of the achievements. I'm focusing on the story from here on out. If I replay a game for fun and get a new achievement, great, but I'm not looking at the list anymore. As someone said once, "ain't nobody got time for that". 

I read on wiki that Kubric's daughter did the incidental electronic music for Full Metal Jacket. I always remember the song Surfin' Bird by the Trashmen. What a great, crazy song that one is. 

I noticed that change in the music when you are underwater when I played it on Rare Replay last year - very cool. I do remember getting lost in the world a few times. I needed a map. 

None so far. I'll get to it sometime soon. I'm going to play everthing I just downloaded. 

That's what I'm going to do now - just enjoy the trip. 

I want to get the game without the toys too, but only because of money. I love the toys. 

I hope the game appears on Game Pass or on sale digitally. I'll probably try it out. That comparison with Voyager has my interest. 

I never played it. I want to though. One of these days I'm going to do a FF run and play them all. I mean, I've played the first one, FFIV and a little bit of XII, but I'd love to do a deep dive on the series. 

I was trying to think like a developer and figure it out. Maybe they know how much some people play a game and want to give them some reward. I sometimes can't believe how much time people put into a single game. And those youtubers who find everything and give you a walkthrough. The time to play that and then construct a video of it boggles my mind.

I haven't been keeping time-played stats anymore but if I combined my 2014 playthrough with today's, and both versions of the game, it has to be several hundred hours.

I want to see a celebrity deathmatch between Teddy Roosevelt and Jane Austin. 

You got Starlink. Cool. I want to try that game when it goes on sale. $1.31 is kinda crazy though. 

That's like a small dog's eye view of DJ Quik on that cover. 

Interestingly, my friend Mark was playing the XBO version right next to me. It took me a while to look over and compare. The differences really didn't stand out to me until I made that comparison. Then I realized how much more detail there was in the guns and how the colors in the environment popped a little more in the XBO version (That's the Handsome Collection version).

Oh, and there is differences in the menus. Locations in your list of missions aren't broken down by DLC like in the XBO version and the whole interface works faster in the XBO version. 

I was carrying it around with me alot in case I had a spare moment or two. I would get in a half hour or so every so often but not enough for my liking. I'm going to break out the DS and see what I can do. I think I'll feel like playing more when I'm financially secure. Right now, I feel guilty spending any time with handhelds.
