Good morning everyone,
It's Friday, the weekend is here, but with how climate change has turned up the heat everywhere, I'm hoping everyone is being as cool as possible.
PandaSweet joined in for a lot of fun as we tacked a bit of fishing, plus a trip through the various dailies (Expert, Dungeon, Trial, Alliance Raid and Normal Raid). I also did a bit of progress with my role as Dragoon, knocking out the level 40 job quest, plus an extended trip through the Palace of the Dead. So all in all a pretty easy going night.

Had a hell of a time trying to get to sleep last night, so I ended up playing some Overwatch matches, and picked up a pair of Plays of the Game as D.va.
Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Biceps Shape Focus Combo, Difficult Challenge Combo #1 and Intermediate Combo #1 for 34 minutes.
During the stream I was asked by LvStkr if I have ever played Fighting History, and the answer at the time was no I haven't. Now I was aware of Fighting History, at it was a game that basically caused Capcom to lose a lawsuit over the entire concept and idea fighting games. Now I did sit down to play it this morning, granted it was the SNES port which is currently apart of the SNES portion of the Nintendo Switch Online feature. Going through the standard arcade mode with Feline, I had a fairly straight forward time getting through it. I actually found Fighting History to be better than Street Fighter II in some regard.
Work was pretty solid yesterday, even if I only got in 80%R of my hours, but I didn't know I had even that until 10 AM. But I do know I got more hours today so that's good.
What did one wall say to the other? "Meet me at the corner!"
Found out Ghostbusters: Sanctum of the Slime, Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse and DuckTales: Remastered are all games that are backwards compatible on the Xbox side of things. We have featured and finished Castle of Illusion and DuckTales via Steam a few years ago, but this gives us a great opportunity to break out my lame platforming skills.
The Ghostbusters game is a twin-stick shooter, which does have online play as an option, however it appears you have to create a session in advance with other players instead of just starting a session and hope others join in. I have played it before, never really getting to far in the PS3 and Steam versions, but since the lobbies for the Xbox 360 version still work we may give it a whirl. Oh and I did play a bit of Ghostbusters: Sanctum of the Slime, the online lobbies to appear to work as it did recognize both Quick Match and Find Game options.

- ROOKIES: Finish the first level.
You know what's also funny, Street Fighter III 3rd Strike Online Edition for the Xbox 360 can still be purchased, and I'm surprised it was pushed into the backwards compatible list of games considering it's reputation. Maybe I should just track down a working 360 on the secondary market to dive into games that are basically locked to that console generation. Where would I put it is a real question.
Thousand Arms was trending lately, as someone review has peaked interest into the Dating Sim / JRPG hybrid from the late 90s. Thankfully I still have my copy of the game

Of course for tonight's stream we shall be continuing Persona 5 Strikers, as we'll be getting into the next major part of the story. I was wrong, there are two major jails / palaces left, so I figure we may finish the game within two or three streams. Depends on how much extra stuff I come across doing.
So on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
