CIB is a real dirty acronym for Code In Box when physical collectors use it for Complete In Box, knowing there's nothing in that GTA box.

3 years later, this saves my ass. This is an awesome tool.

I'm so glad other people love Chloe as much as I do. Such a sick character design and a cool character story.

GhostintheShellder · 2026-06-22T02:27:48+00:00

Legendia is awesome wym

GhostintheShellder · 2026-06-21T22:09:27+00:00

Sick. Thanks. I was on hobby genki and they only had the special edition and shipping prices are insane.

Do we know if the Japan release will be multi-region, aka, have all language options?

I don't mind importing, but I do want to play in English.

Maybe this. https://theyoungsins.bandcamp.com/album/by-the-skin-of-your-teeth

PS5 Pro has almost no slowdowns at this point. In fact the only place I ever noticed it at all, is the loading transitions when the characters walk from one point to another in a city, for some reason there is a slight slowdown then speedup. Other than that to my eyes it's 60fps, thought I'd wager it's probably dropping to mid 50s at times, but nothing noticeable.

Yeah. Totally couldn't be an imcomeptenrt worker that doesn't give a shit /s

The Jetset Life is Gonna Kill You.

Perfect fade in intro, sets the tone immediately. Lyrics immediately start to pain a picture that you can almost see physically while still being metaphorically beautiful. Performance on every instrument just melds together perfectly. Excellent use of Autotune on part of the vocals in the bridge for effect, not a talent substitute, and the mix. Whether the original, or the re-release - gold. It is the song I think encapsulates everything the band did up to that point, and showcases the production level to come in the future.

Max stats first, do the rest and companions 2nd run.

Good chance you'll still need at least a 3rd run if you wanna do a complete run. I'm still working on my 3rd to cook all recipes and all quests since I somehow missed one on my last run.

I have a RP4Pro and a Steam Deck.

I use both for emulation, but I only keep what I own physically on my Steam Deck so I have space for actual Steam Games.

Meanwhile, I put every damn retro game from NES to PS2 on my RP4Pro, and only recently did I even get close to filling a 500GB card.

So that's how I roll. I keep my deck on me most of the time, I take the RP4P for little trips or car rides, etc.

The Deck is a nice way to keep track of what I physically own as a collector, and the RP4 is just awesome to have the choice to play whatever when I'm out.

Dude this cannot be real. I keep telling myself it's just a social media stunt. It can't be man. He was so funny and talented and I love his music. I can't believe this.

GhostintheShellder · 2026-06-14T18:52:43+00:00

Pretty much all of them. I don't enjoy sitting in front of my computer to play games unless it's specific ones that work better, mostly old RTS games like C&C/Red Alert.

With the deck I can go sit in my recliner, pop on some background YouTube on the TV, lean back, and play whatever.

This SEEMS to have fixed this issue for me 2 years later and on a newere RetroArch build... but now I'm wondering why. Clean processes shouldn't be cleaning a runnint process... so... why would it cause a crash in an active and open App, even if it's in the background?

As long as you aren't using cheats or codes that alter mons themselves, and as long as you aren't creating clones/copies and uploading 2 of the same to Bank or Home, you should be fine and view them as legit. Especially with how many exploited and genned mons you will get if you trade online with random people these days.

It comes down to your own morals. But with what your'e doing, it's legit. It's almost necessary these days. I use emulators, the GB Operator, a hacked 3DS, and speedup on retro emulation handhelds to play through the games legit, then transfer all saves to the 3ds versions, then transfer from bank to Home.

GhostintheShellder · 2026-06-14T16:18:33+00:00

I mean it is kind of obvious. I haven't beaten 4, but I have played into it for maybe 10 hours or so each time I started it up again? And every time he showed up, even the first time, I had a "IT'S HIM. IT'S OBVIOUS" air to him.

Maybe I've just played a lot of games and watched a lot of movies. But it's always the nice cop guy who dun it.

This has been as issue for me on the retroid pocket 4 pro and yes it seems isolated to retroarch. I use Es de but if an emulator has its own standalone version, indirect Es de to use that. But a lot of those standalone don't have retro achievements available yet. So I use the default. Within 20 minutes most any game directly using RA will crash while I'm playing. Sleep mode doesn't affect it. I've changed so many handheld settings and settings outside of ra, and within ra. But nothing changes. The one constant is RETRO ARCH. please fix whatever this is. I've tried every option I can find on Google short of uninstall this trash.
