I would wear a t-shit saying "We need to get the f*ck out of Blighttown"

Ok, so here's two hot tips for finding items you that made my trip through this vile land much more bearable:

1. There is a stone bridge in Valley of Drakes, if you can kill two or three drakes without dying, about 3/4ths of the way there is a Bandit's armor set, and in that set is the Spider Shield. It's resistant to poison, so use that with the Shadow armor set found in Blighttown. (the shield can also be found in the chute behind the undead butcher in The Depths)
2. There's a secret area that you can access from the elevator shortcut connecting Firelink Shrine and the Undead Parish. All you have to do is when going up, step off to a ledge just a bit higher than where you got on. on the left there should be a spot that you can jump to that should lead up some stairs. Before you go all the way up the stairs though, you should hop on the roof of the nearby shrine to find a key that you'll use a bit later. Go to the top of the stairs and sit through a cool cutscene that will take you back to the undead asylum. If you haven't already been here you should be forewarned, the enemies here are tougher than the first time around. Once here, make you're way to the upper level to the area where you initially had to jump off to attack the first boss (you'll have to fight a knight or two to get there) . Past that area is a door you can open with the key you got on the shrine roof. It's a lot of work but past this door you'll find the Rusted Iron Ring. , but you'll thank me when you realize it negates the movement speed penalty of the swamps in Blighttown.

Everybody knows PC gaming is dead, they announced that in 2005. Is it dead yet? How about now?

Is it now?

Is it REALLY?

It's ok. I'm mad more people didn't buy heavy rain, too.

Bad news. I'm going to be playing the crap out of that multiplayer, and ALL my online buddies use steam.

I know that I'll just add them on whatever friends list they may have going on, but I not going to like going between to platforms all the fucking time.

The only game that I think should I can contribute that no one seems to have mentioned so far is Gunstar Super Heroes!

It's a real gem, though I can't imagine it's too easy to find. Also Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town is sort of my GBA guilty pleasure. There's always something to do and it's sorta janky about it, but in a really Japanese way.

@UltraMagnus:

They shoulda brought in Peter Molyneux for the latter.

I think we all expected this, but nonetheless I'm still disappointed. My Gamecube library is pretty special to me.

The live stream is SUPER interesting industry talk. But it's dry as hell.

I'm not gonna lie, I got some chills.

Yeah I can't defend the driving %100 of the time, but I when you do get the hang of it, you can pull off some pretty impressive Tokyo Drift action across the city.
