When we go to the beach on vacation each year I always make a point to stop in the local bookshop. Selection and moreso price aren't great, but it's always so much fun just to look around.
Went the past week and picked up:
Well that's installing from disc but still using it to play the game, a precursor to the way it continued to work on future Xboxes (with the differences that install was optional on 360, and that on later Xboxes sometimes games required a download to even install).
This rumor would have to be a step further.
This is my favorite game ever. Enjoy the playthrough! Try to see it with young, wonder-filled eyes.
Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd.
Shine On is so beaitiful. Then the middle songs, especially the title track, scratch that more catchy, accessible itch.
Years ago I looked into lucid dreaming and found that those communities have catalogged several actions that can act as "reality checks".
Generally in a dream, some things pretty consistently don't work right. Clocks/watches, mirrors, light switches. Check one of those and see if anything looks weird. If it makes no sense, probable that you're dreaming.
Try to remember the sequence of events that led to what you're doing now. In a dream, there wasn't anything before.
Or my personal favorite, plug your nose and then try to breathe through it. In a dream it will work.
There's quite a range of other methods out there too.
Already mentioned in OP, but a copy of Wikipedia would be first priority.
To say something else, I'd also grab the archive of GameFAQs guides.
English also welcome, as long as you're coming at it for language learning.

Good question from @Monster96@lemmy.world that came up on AskLemmy, thought it was appropriate to share here.
Was going to guess Evolution, didn't remember that there was a second one. That protagonists certainly looks familiar, tho I thought his arm was weirder.
There's also a recommendations community here !recommendations@lemmy.world
It's not active enough to be all that useful. But hey, the more people that subscribe, the closer that is to changing.
Like any other signal, the options have been found out and probably, mostly, reduced to noise. But Wirecutter and Consumer Reports claim to test things and recommend. The latter needs a subscription, but you may have one through your local library.
For electronics, rtings was quite good last I used it. Some categories are free, but they are (or were) quite open about letting you sub, find what you want, then cancel after the month. It was nice that most of the data was objective stuff presented in tables you can filter by. But many data points are definitely subjective ratings.
Why are they freezing?
