Played 2 hours of Borderlands GOTY today.

Doing all the side missions and optional missions before I tackle the main story missions (got lucky the last few ones lol).

Focusing on upgrades and all - on lv 18 now.

----

Finished Street Fighter Alpha arcade mode in SFV.

Started on Street Fighter III New Generation Arcade mode - 4 characters done, 8 more to go.

With Borderlands, it's always wise to do side quests first to level up, otherwise you'll face difficult situations.

So now you're doing the Street Fighter games? Good for you. This weekend I did the last bits I wanted to do with Sky Force Reloaded. I had already finished all the story (to call them something) missions plus the extra three and managed to get all the cards (power-ups), I was only missing the task of completing all the story missions with all the ships, something that I managed to complete Saturday. There are still some badges to get, but I'm not masochistic enough to try those.

I'm still not sure what I'll play next.

Anyone know what can cause a PC to not shut down properly? Windows seems to shutdown and then I just get get a black screen but the PC is still powered on with fans spinning etc. Happens 50% of the time. So I have to hold the power button when it happens.

Edit: Might be fixed. Disabled windows fast boot and updated all my drivers. Might happen again we'll see.

I hope that fixes it for you. I get the same problem from time to time. It scares the sh*t out of me when it happens, but only until I reset it and goes back to act like a normal PC should.

Nintendo seems to have fired back over the Tears of the Kingdom leak by DMCAing popular Switch emulation tools
https://www.pcgamer.com/nintendo-seems-to-have-fired-back-over-the-tears-of-the-kingdom-leak-by-dmcaing-popular-switch-emulation-tools/
First reported by GBAtemp, it looks like Nintendo is aggressively responding to the Tears of the Kingdom leak by targeting key portions of the Switch emulation ecosystem, namely the Lockpick and Lockpick_RCM programs that dump Switch game decryption keys and allow emulators like Yuzu and Ryujinx to decrypt and open the game files.
>> It looks like the Zelda leak may actually put the current emulators in danger.

More like they'll just make it something separate that is not the emulators' developers' responsibility like the PS2 Bios. Which sucks a bit because you'll be depending on sketchier links that are always being shot down.

AFAIK that's the case too for RPCS3 since ROMs have to be decrypted with a third-party tool beforehand.

Yeah, I've read a bit more into that after posting it. Nintendo has basically cut the option to legally play the games you've bought on an emulator, leaving only the option to go for ROMs. Not the brightest idea from the Kyoto boys.
