Games update

New games I've recently rented;

Sacred 2: Fallen Angel - Would have been groundbreaking 5 years ago. Just lots of quest grinding. Missable.

Star Ocean: The Last Hope - Looks like an enjoyable JRPG, Nice visuals, easily immersive, might come back to it at some point but you know how much of a linear timesink JRPGS are.

Onechanbara: Bikini Samurai - Arcade style samurai slash-fest with girls wearing bikinis and sporting very.... elastic physics. Missable

X-Blades - Hackfest with a protagonist with v. little clothes. Missable

[PROTOTYPE] - Occasionally you come across a game and realise that what you're playing is not just a game, it's an experience. Only 45 minutes in and I realise it'll be tough sending this game away before I'm finished with it.

New trainer session, new moves

Russian Twists are out (thank goodness) CV sessions are in. After having a cold for a couple of weeks I've become a bit porkyer so will have some CV sessions mixed in with the normal ones for a while (yay!). I've been worried I've been losing some CV capacity as I've noticed myself sweating a bit more, but trainer indicated it might instead be I'm finally using my muscles correctly. I could sign up to that idea! ;)
