Slow down, live in the present, and enjoy who and what I already have in my life. That includes being more forgiving to myself and others, worrying less about all of the possible things I could be doing (personally and professionally) and instead choosing one thing at a time to focus my energy on, and being more aware of my own thoughts and feelings, then expressing them in a healthy way.

Maggie's Farm by RAtM is also a great cover

Beautiful. Looks like you've got quite impressive Wii and GameCube collections too 👀

I own a pair of Etymotic ER20XS ear plugs and I like them. I haven't had the chance yet to try them out at a concert, but I have worn them on other occassions. I think they're reasonably comfortable and the sound quality is still good while wearing them.

Cholula is where it's at

Image Fight on NES. It's a top down scrolling shooter where you fly a space ship and pick up new weapons and attachments. I was terrible at it as a kid but I loved it and kept trying to progress further. I've thought about picking up a copy now but just haven't gotten around to it

Fuck man, I do miss the scrungy cats from the last place

My routines are a bit more casual and inconsistent than what others have posted. Lately I have been doing intervals on a stationary bike for 30 minutes three times per week. If the weather is nice, I'll go for a walk 30-90 minutes depending on location and weather on days that I don't do the stationary bike.

I eat fairly healthy and almost always at home. I make an effort to get two servings of raw fruit and veg each day, in addition to anything that I put into my meal prep for that week. I don't eat much meat though, so I struggle a bit with protein intake.

In the past I've used MyFitnessPal to track my meals and check protein and calorie intake in particular. It's a decent app and gave me what I needed.

Mostly physical because I prefer doing so for all of my consoles. I only buy digital when a game is deeply discounted, I was given a Nintendo gift card, or the physical version isn't available or is prohibitively expensive

After 6 years of seriously using Python regularly, I'd probably give myself a 6/10. I feel comfortable with best practices and making informed design decisions. I have no problem using linting and testing tools. And I've contributed to large open source projects. I could improve a lot by learning more about the standard library and some core computer science concepts that inform the design of the language. I'm pretty weak in web frameworks too, unfortunately.

You could check out Dash/Plotly if you're familiar with python and planning on visualizing data

I got this game around the time it came out and I remembered dropping it, but not why. Reading your post now makes me think Blockhead was the reason why haha. I should get back around to this and perhaps skip this fight

 

I've noticed some slightly obscure Xbox 360 titles rising in price lately. Anyone know why demand has gone up suddenly? Examples: Spec Ops: The Line ($15 to $35), Spectral Force 3 ($20 to $100), and Lost Odyssey ($20 to $35).

Halo 3 limited edition and Fallout New Vegas on XONE have climbed too, though they aren't as obscure.

Are collectors starting to focus on Xbox 360 titles?

 

Hey folks, just checking in to see what everyone is playing this week! Did you find a hidden gem or are you jamming on a classic? Let us know what you're playing and what you think of it.

 

Hey folks, what is everyone playing this week? Are you trying something new or returning to a previously played game or genre? How are you liking what you're currently playing?

 

Hey folks, r/gamecollecting is/was one of my favorite subs, so I would love to see a community for it here! Let's start building this space with an easy question for discussion: what's your favorite console to collect for?

Personally, I really enjoy collecting for Xbox 360. Games are inexpensive and easy to find, there are lots of good exclusives, non-exclusives tend to be similar or better for the 360, and the controller design is simply excellent. My favorite game so far is Enslaved: Odyssey to the West. It has some issues, but it's generally a fun and engaging game.

Which console do you prefer collecting for and why?
