I think today I shall tackle Typing of the Dead, which I've never played. I have the DC keyboard ready to go...

Turns out that beating this game, if it is indeed my next one, will be a pretty special milestone...

Because it will mean you have learned to type with more than 2 fingers?

If the world wanted me to type with more than two fingers it would have made the keyboard layout less fucking uncomfortable.

I type with four fingers and type faster than most anyone I know.

same here...my typing teacher in HS (where we used typewriters) told me in the first week if class that I'd already hit all goals for the year using my own method of typing, so she wouldn't try to force the proper way on me :lol:

I would be willing to bet that I type faster with 10 fingers than you do with 4.

It's kind of like kb/m in FPS games.

It does. Accuracy too.

Just prepare to be astonished. You'll think you're doing great, and then you'll reach the end of a level. I thought I was able to type decently fast, I was shocked to see what their rankings look like.

And yes, it gets so incredibly difficult.

My update: Samba de Amigo, Marvel vs. Capcom 2, and Final Fantasy VIII are all beaten and quite enjoyable. Final Fantasy VIII is just as good as I remember it. I think I'll start Uncharted or Metal Gear Solid on Bleemcast next.

Yup! I completed the DC original mode and picked up all 30 coins a while back. I'll be playing it again for TR.
