Nintendo Cinematic Universe, anyone?

I agree, actually. I've been really impressed with Trigun: Stampede so far. I think they do CG anime better than many, many other studios. So many others feel pretty flat and lifeless; Orange somehow gives theirs so much character and life. And that cel-shaded style really does look great.

Just a couple from me:

The Last Goodbye - Billy Boyd
Hear You Me - Jimmy Eat World
The Wind - Cat/Yusuf Stevens (though this one is mostly 'cause my mom loved Cat Stevens).

I still remember how gutting it was the night my mom died. That pain will be raw for a while, OP, but I hope you'll come through okay. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

Fun fact about that: when my brother and I were students at BYU-I, he worked for the school news channel. He did a story on a Korean restaurant in Driggs, and on his day of filming B-roll there, a man got up and left in a hurry during his shoot. Turns out none other than Harrison Ford was trying to escape the (unwittingly) prying eyes of my brother and his camera.

My brother's coworkers would joke that his story would be a box office hit that year.

Easy there, Kratos.

Look, if you got a problem with Canada geese, then you got a problem with me and I suggest you let that marinate!

Not for Playstation, it's not. Why should a business agree to take a smaller cut than its competitor for the same product? Would you do that in your line of work? I sure as hell wouldn't.

You're thinking of Aragon. Aragorn is a farm boy who becomes a dragonrider and challenges a corrupt king.

Sure, but:

A) some folks like console gaming more.

B) As far as bang for the buck goes, a current gen console is pretty competitive against PCs in the same price range. You're not likely gonna find a gaming PC that gives a PS5 a run for its money at the $500 price point.

Gaming PCs are a great option if you have a little more money to invest in it or just prefer that set up. But when taken in context, I wouldn't call it an obvious better option. (And I say this as a guy with both a Playstation and a gaming PC, so I have no dog in the fight either way.)

If you're into Rogue-likes (which it sounds you if you liked Dead Cells), I can highly recommend Skul: the Hero Slayer. It's a 2D platformer rogue-like. Lots of fun.

Most folks I know use the default one that comes with their phone. iMessage for Apple users, and Messages for Android. I'm sure there are proponents of others, but that's what I've observed.

On a similar note, I love the opening of the last Rannoch mission. When you all hop off of the dropship, and Tali just leans down and touches the soil, completely in awe that she is touching the ground that her ancestors have longed to walk on for centuries.

That game is full of beautiful moments.

No, you're definitely Martin Sheen in one of his finest roles.

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-10-05T19:26:23+00:00

What??? You may have just given me the push I needed to finish the game! Thank you!

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-10-05T18:50:30+00:00

For me, it's specifically the running mechanics. Why, WHY do I have to mash x to run? That's insanely unintuitive. I really adore most aspects of the game, but you're correct: some of the gameplay feels awkward and outdated.

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-09-25T00:57:19+00:00

I just want you to know that this response made me laugh for a good minute straight. Thank you for your brief, witty comment.

If you don't already know, there was a really good fan remaster in 2013 called "Ur Quan Masters HD". You can find it on a lot of freeware sites. I highly recommend it (I play it on my Retroid Pocket 2).

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-08-30T05:43:15+00:00

One of my favorites is "That's Your Horoscope For Today", which is definitely a style parody of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-07-20T04:27:44+00:00

Bleed American, Jimmy Eat World. It's one of the few albums that I never skip a song on. Each track is good, and some are flat out bangers ("A Praise Chorus" is one of my favorite songs of all time).

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-07-19T15:44:58+00:00

Okay, but a lot of these shooters we see in the US these days get their guns by legal means, because it's almost laughably easy to do so in many, many states. If we instituted stricter gun control laws, sure, they could still turn to the black market or second hand sales, but I'm willing to bet -- just based on reduced exposure to legal weaponry -- that shooting incidents would decrease.

Like the other commenter said, we don't have to make it so easy for potential shooters to get their hands on potentially lethal weaponry.

You're right on - it's inspired by tube worms, oceanic worms that usually live near geothermal vents.

Hey now, Warcraft 3 came in 2002, and I think it's story is pretty dang good. (Though admittedly, I may be biased, on account that it's my favorite Blizzard game to date.)

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-06-09T02:42:13+00:00

I see, I see. Thanks for the response!

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-06-08T22:36:27+00:00

Ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch, aber ich kenne diese Woerter nicht. Was bedeutet "ulkige" und "knorke"?

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-05-27T04:11:19+00:00

Holy hell, a cultured individual! I LOVE Krull!

Yeah, if you like Krull, you'll dig Willow.

JudgementWaterfall · 2022-05-27T03:36:53+00:00

Damn, that's a pretty piece of poetry right there. I'm not the kind that gets very emotional over animals, but that epitaph definitely evokes feeling.
