So, I was watching my favorite stream on JTV by Michael_1985. He's this German guy who plays a lot of platforming/action games that tend to be pretty hard and screams lots of funny things when he dies. Not really raging but silly things - it's fun.
He was playing Metroid: Other M and while I had no real interest in the game, it did renew my desire to play Ninja Gaiden Black. After all, Team Ninja developed both games. So, I spent two or so hours redownloading it because I purchased it from XBL before and deleted it to free up space but kept my saves.
Lo and behold, I discover the save files become "damaged" if you put the HDD onto another Xbox machine. Apparently, it ties save files to the physical address of the Xbox and mine was sent in from RROD. Pretty much meant I lost all my progress... and I had completed Mission Mode and was on my Master Ninja playthrough (I think?).
Raging, I went to Amazon to get NG Sigma for the PS3 and ended up also getting Little Big Planet, Killzone 2, and Resident Evil (GC Remake). All for like $70. FOUR "like-new" used games for $70. Good stuff. It was all very compulsive and spontaneous but I think I'll have fun with each. Except Killzone 2. That was probably a mistake but I'll play it and have fun for a short time.
Oh well
weird
RE GC remake is good too, if I remember though it's harder than the original, which was already hard lol. That's a good deal for that much, it's reassuring to know you'll be occupied with something for a while, besides school and your annoying work =p
