Out of the Blue

Had a weird experience playing Borderlands 2 on Monday with my mutant cohorts, as we tried to kill Pete the Invincible in another of the game's over-the-top boss-fights. There's an exploit that makes this near unwinnable battle possible involving a weird wall hop to get to a safer position to do battle, but I was the only one of our crew who could not accomplish this seemingly simple maneuver, which involved spamming the jump button to get on a ledge. We theorized my keyboard was at fault, but a little Googling shows my Logitech G510 gets high marks for not having any USB ghosting issues, so I don't know what's up. The irony here is that I am considered the best player in the group at reaching difficult spots, often hanging around the rooftops of Sanctuary like the proper Batman Zer0 I am, but this one ledge remained maddeningly out-of-reach.

Surprised at that finding. It will be interesting to see future studies that look at the effect to see if it holds up.

i've always suspected that was the case cuz i've heard lots of stories of long distance runners developing degenerative conditions. it's a high impact activity after all, both to your joints and to your cardiovascular system. then again, maybe i'm just rationalizing my recent streak of lazing out of hitting the gym XD
