Latest Mortal Kombat on Freaking Steam?

I was just happily playing League of Legends on the Personal Computer this morning until I noticed that it was passed 10am, which meant that it was time to check out the daily Steam deal. What I saw on the main page almost sent me into a nasty state of permanent comatose:

Really? I didn't see this coming at all.

I already have this game on the PlayStation 3 and right now, I surely wish I never bought it. Sure, I didn't pay the full price for the game when I did pick it up for that console but I did pay quite a bit to get all the downloadable contents. I want this game on the PC. Just the thought of playing it on the PC makes me feel all yummy and gooey inside. Yes, I will eventually get this... But more importantly, this further strengthens my conviction about abandoning both the upcoming PlayStation 4 and the X-Box One thoroughly and completely. I will just stick to my PC and the Wii U as well as all the consoles I already have. The game is a fully-featured Steampowered release as well which means the publisher Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment sees a lot of value in the Steam distribution channel as they continue to release more and more games here. I am truly loving this release and it deserves all of our support, especially since early reports indicated that the game is running flawlessly.

Operation Suikoden Rescue: Success!

I found it! Oh yes, I have found the Suikoden V PlayStation 2 disc that I discovered to be missing last night! I mentioned in the update note in the wee hours of the morning after my initial search that I began to worry about the whole situation. Well, when I finally got time to continue on my search today, I sat down to analyze the situation more thoughtfully. I could vaguely recall trying to play the game again when I moved to my current residence so I concluded that if the game disc could not be found in any of the PS2 game cases that I had accessed over these past 3+ years, it must be in one of my PlayStation 3 game cases because those would be laying around the room for me to manipulate and use as temporary places to store wayward game discs. So I checked about 3-4 PS2 game cases and when the disc was not there, I started immediately on the PS3 game cases. Just as I was going through the first row of PS3 games, a disc plopped to the left side, thankfully undamaged, when I opened the case for Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2! It was a delicious moment of immediate relief:

It felt good... Like really, really good!

Now that I have found the game disc, expect to see me playing it on my twitch.tv channel. I plan to do a play-through of the game, which is of course further fueled by the adventure that I just went through to reclaim the game! I want to use PCSX2 to play the game again with improved graphics. But if the performance of that program is poor, I may just use my PS2 console to do the job.

Operation Suikoden Rescue

You know, there is a good reason why I am so diligent about placing game discs back into their appropriate cases after I am done playing them and that reason being the prevention of those game discs being misplaced. I, unfortunately, have adopted this habit of using a disc organizer to place the game discs that I frequented and this, I believe, has resulted in my current painful heartache. I was having a hard time deciding what to play earlier this evening and decided to visit my PlayStation 2 library before deciding on Suikoden V. Imagine my horror as I saw this when I opened the game case:

My heart. It hurts.

The game disc was missing! In panic, I checked my PS2 console and found that it wasn't in the disc tray. Next, I checked the disc trays on my current and old computer: both yielded nothing. The next step here would be to return all of the discs I placed inside the disc organizer back into their proper dwellings to see if I accidentally placed the Suikoden V disc inside one of those cases. Please, let that be the case because if not, I would have to open every single one of my PS2 game cases before moving on to the other consoles. I sure wish that all my games are digital. The same thing happened to me back in 2008 with a Personal Computer game, so let's hope that this incident will have a happy ending.

Update Note: 07/02/2013, 2:00am - I returned all the homeless discs into their appropriate game cases as well as went through some of my music CD cases and two rows of PS2 games and so far, I came up empty. I am beginning to get a little worried.
