TVs, the PSP and my NES.

I really want a HD TV, I recently moved to a new place and a 42-50" would go great in the living room. The only issue is what do I do with my old TV/consoles? I can't stand how they look on anything but a CRT TV. I'm just gona have to find somewhere to put the old TV or maybe downgrade to a smaller model or something.

I picked up a PSP again, I just couldn't stay away what with all those amazing RPGs. I gave the Phantasy Star Portable 2 demo a try, not expecting much but it reignited my love for the PS series. I really want the full game but I'm torn, I could buy a physical copy but then I have to make do with disc loading, I could buy a UK PSN copy but then I'd have to authenticate my account every time I wanted to play US/UK games or I could buy the US PSN version but that costs $40!!! What a joke. I considered going back to CFW and just ripping the physical copy but then what do I do about online? I've grown very tired of the whole cat and mouse aspect of homebrew anyway.

Finally, my NES died :( It was constantly giving me the flashing lights so I opened it up and cleaned it. Nothing unusual but now it no longer works. I didn't touch anything I wasn't supposed to so I don't know how I've done it but yeah, it's gone. I'm gona have to buy another one I think...

GFWL and Resident Evil 5

I've been sorting through my old physical PC games and donating some that I won't play again and aren't worth anything. I assumed my old Games For Windows Live titles would not work, but they do! They absolutely do! GTA IV: Episodes from Liberty City, Fable III, Lost Planet 2...etc, they all work perfectly. They have some installation quirks. You do need the latest GFWL update and they can take an age to install, so long in fact it feels like the installer has crashed in the case of Lost Planet 2, but if you leave it be it will complete and then work just fine.  I also found out that I could still install the GFWL version of Resident Evil 5 on Steam and that also works. It no longer shows your serial key on Steam but I was able to use my Lost Planet 2 serial key on it instead. It seems some GFWL titles used a shared key database and aren't locked to a specific title. Red Faction: Guerrilla and Flatout Ultimate Carnage also still have their GFWL versions available on Ste...

Baldur's Gate III / CyberPunk / Theatrhythm

Baldur's Gate III finally comes out this August. I need to crack on with replaying Baldur's Gate II. I'm not sure what to do with CyberPunk, I just can't seem to get into it. Part of that could be that I'm playing it on PS5, where the text is super small and you can't plug in a mouse and keyboard. I might just sell it and try the PC version in 5 years or something. I won't be buying a PC that can play it for some time. There's a lot coming out at the moment that I'm interested in. I didn't get round to buying the newest Fire Emblem or Yakuza but did pick up the latest Theatrhythm which is fun. I went for the Switch version for the option of mobile play, but I've only played it on the TV so far.
