Where the F'k is Spud?

Oh hi!

So, my TA participation has been rather low the last couple of months, so I thought I'd explain what the hell I've been doing. And no, don't worry I didn't do anything dumb, like have a family or anything silly like that.

Speedruns and Streamy Stuff
Most of my gaming time has been spent on my stream, I've always streamed a bit of Rock Band and some random other stuff, but more recently I've had more specific projects to bum around with.

I've spent a pretty large amount of time on a speedrun of Lost Odyssey. Extremely challenging and fun, and very addictive, slamming through a 50+ hour game in a day feels pretty boss.
Here's a recent disc 2 run in 1hr 20min, if you're curious.

The other current project that I've just started is a "normal" playthrough of Final Fantasy VII with the "Hardcore" Mod applied. Extremely challenging so far. Still in the Shinra building after about 6 hours of play. Quite fun though.

Achievements
On top of that, I've still been knocking out a couple of achievements; although generally on new games. I've played a bit of Rocksmith now that it's finally out. And my view is that it blows RB3 pro mode right out of the water. I suspect RB4 will need to incorporate the Rocksmith cable and allow real guitar play to remain competitive in that area.

And finally me and psxfreak101 have been having a blast, shooting shit in borderlands 2. I just recently ditched him and got to level 50 without him 'cause I couldn't wait. But he'll forgive me when I show it the 14k damage sniper rifle I found in the process.

I'm currently 3GS away from 60,000 GS which will be my first significant milestone since I hit 100k TA prolly more than a year ago now, haha.

Music!
In non-gaming news; I'm now in a band playing drums; we cover 90's and 00's punk and alternative (Green Day, Foo Fighters, etc, etc). Just plain awesome fun, not too serious. If you look really hard you can check us out playing some Green Day and Pennywise here.
