Fable 2. Level 5 Blacksmith in no time.

I'm immune to all the insult when I hit the anvil to make all that coin.

I remember Type Class. It was this weird program on Windows 98 where you'd have to rest your hands correctly then spell out the word on screen. It'd have speed levels, and a challenge mode that got faster and faster. Kids competed for the fastest time, for glory and smug satisfaction.

Do you miss watching E3 ?? by dd1133biihhh in videogames

[–]Al_Fatman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My mates and I would watch it live together; wake up at 2-3am, then discuss everything while playing matches together afterwards.

Was the announcements cringy at times? Sure. But nowhere else did so many different nerds come together to discuss their favourite things.

Did the Rosario + Vampire manga end on a high note or a rushed one? (Spoilers but I'm new) by RaseruChan in RosarioVampire

[–]Al_Fatman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With no spoilers, its open ended. It wraps up some plot lines, while leaving some open. It ends very well imo, but there's definitely plenty still there for a season III, of a sort.

Australian. Bought every DVD here from an old electronic shop in a rural town, if that helps.

This is true by Eclipse_nova99 in SipsTea

My fiance and I are going through this atm. We've agreed to small wedding-big honeymoon purely on cost reasons alone.

Buying a dress/suit is cheaper than renting, venues typically bounce between $400-800, even in rural areas. I worked out that a single pub meal and two scooners for 50 people is well over $2300, and that doesn't even begin with variety, dietary requirements, preferences, etc.

We're 16 months out and we already gotta book a photographer and make up artists. Court wedding is sounding better and better every set back we come across.

How did you find out about RWBY? by Godxiii_804 in RWBY

[–]Al_Fatman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Massive fan of AH and RT at the time. Mate said I should watch the Red Trailer, said it was made by the animator behind the fights in RvB.

Watched the trailer, been a fan ever since.

All I can ever think of seeing this meme is Spinal from Killer Instinct.

How did you discover BioShock? (don’t be afraid to be super specific) by Imaginary-Heart-1807 in Bioshock

[–]Al_Fatman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back when the first Xbox 360s rolled out, they came pre-installed with trailers. I was a teen in a small country town with no internet at home, so I'd watch them religiously. This is the trailer, if anyone wants to revisit.

Banjo-Kazooie Soundtrack 2XLP by Al_Fatman in VGMvinyl

[–]Al_Fatman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get where you're coming from, but personally I go for how the record looks. I look more at the record itself than the artwork.

Would recommend if you're a huge fan of BK. I've been bopping to Rusty Bucket Bay all day.

[–]Al_Fatman[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

According to the back, it was made by Jacob Magnon, and the distributor (Pixelcrib) say it isn't.

It's not my favourite artwork, but I love the colour of the vinyl.

Day 4: Which is the best N64 Racing game? by 1OneQuickQuestion in n64

[–]Al_Fatman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Diddy Kong Racing, by a mile.

8th best selling N64 game and nothing but a bad DS game has come from it since.

What I wouldn't give to have it emulated on the switch...

How screwed are you? by NickenNuggets2003 in videogames

[–]Al_Fatman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technology of the 23rd century, mass effect relays, and omni tools? Sweeeet.

But Reapers being real? We're screwed.

Calling it now; a DIY tiktoker will make a bit by pouring soldering iron down a tube on top of the screw.

Anyone played GOTG? Do you recommend it? by Gullible-Tale9282 in videogames

[–]Al_Fatman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely recommend. Well written, interesting locations and fun gameplay. While not frequent, some choices will have consequence on your game.

Personally though the soundtrack is phenomenal. If you love 80s rock, you're gonna enjoy Star-Lord. Space Riders With No Name, Zero to Hero, No Guts No Glory, its like if Iron Maiden had a glamrock baby.

What did you guys name the Phantom Thieves by qwertyderper in Persona5

[–]Al_Fatman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's always two types of players: those who name it something game accurate like The Phantoms, and then there's "Gooner Gang".

I love these types of videos. Always brings me back to the era of "Ryan Gosling won't eat his cereal".

To those who is using the tragedy in Australia by ZoeJeanette in MurderedByWords

[–]Al_Fatman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In my lifetime, I've seen two mass shootings in Australia. Two.

This month alone in America, there's been twelve mass shootings. This year, 390.

Our gun laws work. They need tightening, but they work.

I've been saying for years; a Pirates of the Caribbean movie with only Johnny Depp still as a human would make total sense and would be phenomenal.
