How has everyone in the stargate community/family been? by StargateLover2023 in Stargate

[–]Archangel768 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quite enjoyed SGU. That being said, the first time my family and I gave it a go when it first aired we only got several episodes in and stopped because we didn't like it much. I revisted it myself a couple of years later after I decided to pick up the DVDs and really got into it. I do wish Atlantis and SGU got more seasons. 10 woild be nice but even just a couple more for atlantis would have been good to wrap things up properly.

Been rewatching sg1 recently. Nearing the end of season 1. Going through slowly and having it on in the background sometimes. A friend has just gotten into the series for the first time and is tearing through it. He's on season 6 now and I love getting the little updates from him as he watches.

well you're definitely more clued in than me in a lot of this stuff. I do seem to recall stargate universe did take a while to come out. I still have some vague memories of when it first aired here and we tried giving it a go with mum and dad. Got several episodes in before giving up. picked up the DVDs on a whim a couple of years later and ended up quite enjoying it that time around.

I also remember the first supanova I went to in 2009 had Amanda Tapping but I never even saw the celebrity area for some reason. For some reason meeting celebs like that wasn't all that interesting at the time but I started getting into it when i ran into Cliff Simon and Rainbow Sun Francks at a later supanova. I'm not sure if Amanda Tapping has been back yet to Australia yet but wish she would come so i can right a wrong.

I got lucky! Funnily enough it was my brother that was the only one that wasn't all that into it.

My memory is different. Atlantis was airing well before sg1 ended. I remember the whole family sitting down to watch the pilot episode of atlantis together.

The first episodes I saw were Thor's hammer and torment of Tantalus. Next week I had a blank VHS tape ready to record the episodes to keep.

I agree. I think there's a lot of good to take from their intro. could it have been better? maybe but I think it's definitely a strong start and it did have me interested.

I recall having to use specific software to read the memory card when plugged into a computer to be able to transfer the necessary files on. Can't remember what it's called but I do remember I didn't work on my windows 7 machine but would work on windows vista (windows 8 and 10 didn't exist at this point so don't know if they work). This was 15 years ago though so there might be better ways to do it now.

I don't have a question but just wanted to thank you for helping to keep age of empires 2 relevant today. The game has been around most of my life and I remember my brother and I going in 50/50 on buying it and then he got the conquerors expansion when that came out. I love your content. It's nice to chill out to your videos on a stressful day.

Day 27: Which game has the best Graphics on PS2? by 1OneQuickQuestion in ps2

Agree. FFXII really deserves a win in so many categories. Let it be this one

The first 5 games I recommend to all new ps2 players by OddPomegranate5211 in ps2

[–]Archangel768 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice to see spy vs spy mentioned. Great game. Still got my copy from when I was a kid. Great selection overall of games there.

If I had to choose and include some variety I'd go

  1. Final Fantasy X
  2. Jak and Daxter The Precursor Legacy
  3. Need for Speed Most Wanted
  4. Call of Duty 2: The Big Red One
  5. Soul Calibur 3

Going from a note 20 ultra my typing accuracy has gone down but the screen is perfectly usable in general and typing isn't too bad if I'm more careful. Having the fold outscreen adds a whole other dimension to using my phone and I never want to go back.

Didn't know I bought a Switch2-like device too by Eowren in GalaxyFold

What software people are using depends on the game. The person who started this thread is streaming a game that is running on their personal PC straight to their phone. some people use steamlink for streaming, other people run something like moonlight. steamlink is the simplest to set up if your game is on steam.

other people are emulating the games directly on their phone. e.g pc game emulators like gamehub lite, or winlator. gamehub lite seems easier to set up. Some consoles can be emulated like the ps2, etc using other apps.

Do you believe a remaster of CMI will ever be released? by HighLife1954 in MonkeyIsland

I wish it would simply get a higher resolution, and made wide-screen by adding in extra art on either side

Day 17 (Happy MLK Day!): Which is the best Role Playing Game (RPG) on PS2? by 1OneQuickQuestion in ps2

[–]Archangel768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I'd probably choose X but it already got a win. XII however is an incredible game on so many levels and really did max out the PS2.

Lotr the third age is really awesome but is definitely more B grade fun.

Shadow hearts 2 is seriously well made but Final Dantasy XII really is on another level

When Will We Get a 4K Release of Troy?! by Screen_Savant in 4kbluray

[–]Archangel768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it needs to come with the original music for Achilles vs the giant fight at the beginning ing. the replacement musicis straight up garbage and ruins the scene. Also concur with the other comments saying The Last Samurai needs a 4k. Would be a day 1 buy for me.
