My first console DLC ever is a weird point of pride for me. I bought DLC for Project Gotham Racing 2. Looking into it a bit, it was released in 2004, which were the early and weird days of Xbox Live. I used to stay up late playing PGR2 with a random group of friends from around the world. Super cool stuff.

I made my first SMM2 level here with the help of my wife. She has some great/bad ideas. This is maybe my second ever level that I'm proud of, in that it does what I wanted it to do quite well.

My level is about dumb/uncomfortable situations and some not-quite-right jumps. Light puzzle solving, but it is kind of like a weird Double Dare type level in a way. It isn't perfect, but I think it is fun and that is what matters :P

Yeah ok. That looks like an awesome deal.

I built a board game table last year. It cost me about $700 total including a couple tools I bought and a subscription to a local tool library. It was a really rough first *real* thing to build, but it is awesome if only a little wobbly. Way better than paying $1k-$10k

The X style legs can come off of the top, and the single crossbeam underneath can be separated out. This was mainly to get it down the stairs at that house. I have 7 planks that can lay over the board games that we set up on the blue surface (which I have as black presently).

The project was a pain in the butt, but it was just barely shy of structurally sound after a 5 day weekend with me working on it about 12 hours per day. Sanding and finishing is a pain as well, and took almost a month after that week of hard work.

If you are just getting started, I can't recommend the Tool Library enough. If you are lucky enough to have one in your city or area, you can really benefit from it. To explain, here in Minneapolis/St. Paul Minnesota we have a couple locations. I paid $55 USD for a one year subscription. I can go pick up nice shop tools and rent them for no fee for a week at a time. It was great to have access to an awesome Miter Saw without having to *buy* a miter saw.

Hey everyone,

I'm going to be doing my extra life stream TODAY! I'll be starting pretty soon here over at https://www.twitch.tv/nukesniper please drop by and watch me play a bunch of dumb stuff. I already did a board game/VR/other-video-games day with my friends, but this will be my first stream ever. So I'm really excited and I hope you folks will encourage or support me with views or donations.

Thanks duders!

I've made a total of 3 levels so far, but this one is my favorite that I've got out there.

My first two were obviously testing the waters a bit, but this one is a little creative I think.

Only what you bring with you...

EDIT: I figured I would add some info about this level. I designed this to feel somewhat like a regular Mario level with a couple dark twists. Nothing is too crazy, and I'm not afraid to give you some powerups and such, but there is some light "key" work in the level. The title suggests that you should bring some items with you for the long haul. You don't have to carry them long, but you may get stuck if you use them before I intended.

At least my main gripes here are all software based for the most part. They could still pull a Microsoft and back down from these things if they are as weak-willed as Microsoft has been this year.

I'm excited for new consoles, but neither is either selling me on it or making it worth anyone's time to stop playing their PCs

Random trolls on the internet is one thing, but to have a guy from gametrailers talking smack like that is a bit steep. Have rage-inciting trolls really become so common that podcasts have people complain and stuff on them enough for that? I hope not.

On all this, I really don't come from a place like Patrick. I'm a dude who has done almost nothing on the internet, and what I have has been a joke from the beginning, but I don't look at what people said about those things. I liked them at the time, and that's what mattered to me.

When I first saw this, everything in my being would have preferred this to be the worst joke Giant Bomb had pulled than what it really was. I refused to believe the sincere news as it was posted.

I had almost caught up with my second run through listening to the bombcasts, too. I might have to listen through them all again now.

We will all miss you, Ryan.
