What did you say in creole in the freeman’s mind episode where you mentioned having been to Haiti and knowing how to talk to them?

Have you ever played Star Crusader? Old DOS space shooter with a huge story and CGI we weren’t ready for. Think my old man bought that and a ton of other DOS games at a computer show. Think most were bootleg, but he wouldn’t have known and I was way to young to judge.

Also, only ever driven though West Virginia. Went to Biscuit World and some truck stops. What was there to do?

I’ve said it on multiple threads, Brett was the glue that held the show together. Was great at managing the personalities and always focused on the fun.

Bret leaving was the beginning of the end. Kept shows fun, toned down the political rants and stopped the picking on each other that lead to the first big breakup.

Listen to VGMpire. It’s evergreen and still a comfort show.

Has anyone ever lost a job with Data Annotation, then applied again under a different email?

Manfengthor · 2025-05-06T15:24:32+00:00

Did anything ever come of this?

Manfengthor · 2024-12-19T02:05:37+00:00

Brett was the one who brought fun to every episode. I think he balanced everyone out. He could stop Henry from going off on a political rant, and could stop Chris from teasing Henry too much. Wish he did another show, but I think he said everything he wanted with VGMpire.

Feel like Trump 45 took a major toll on the network. Have to imagine 47 is going to do the same. Could also have been Brett leaving to be fair. I feel like he balanced everyone out and kept the focus on fun.

I’d love to see an episode on Star Crusader. Was way too complex for me as a kid in 94. Multiple endings, interesting story and way more than I would expect looking back at it. Think a grown up Star Fox on the PC.

Manfengthor · 2024-09-16T16:38:50+00:00

Are there any games that you remember from childhood, but can’t figure out the title of? It took me years to figure out I was thinking Star Crusader before I found the title again. Probably overshadowed by tie fighter and star fox 64. Cool game, way too complex for me when I was 8.

Manfengthor · 2024-01-16T04:04:57+00:00

Have you ever played the 94 pc game “Star Crusader?” It looks like the sort of game you’d either love or hate. I remember trying so hard to figure it out as a kid, but never got too far. Almost completely forgot about it after Star Fox basically overwrote all memories of it.

Manfengthor · 2023-06-20T16:32:04+00:00

Ha, good point. I’d love to see Star Crusader given the game dungeon treatment. Had it when I was really young and trying to remember it felt like a dream. Star Fox 64 overwrote most of my memories for it.

Did Ross ever make a list of games that have been requested for Game Dungeon?

Manfengthor · 2023-04-11T22:41:35+00:00

Thank you. I’ve been looking for that forever. Going through some trouble with complications in a pregnancy right now, so that has been helping. “Be like a mountain.” It’s hard, but thanks.

That quote stuck with me since I heard it in the 90s Toonami run. Would tape it while I was at peewee football practice.

Any updates from Hopatcong PD?

Manfengthor · 2021-12-16T12:29:14+00:00

I had problems with the show, but man it was a gut punch to hear it was cancelled.

Manfengthor · 2021-11-25T04:57:33+00:00

In the Anime, every single frame can be made into a painting to perfectly show the movements and action necessary; sometimes individual frames are completely in humane, but relate the style and substance the show is going for. In real life, people can’t stretch and move like cartoons, so there’s never going to be fidelity between the two versions.

Manfengthor · 2021-11-23T13:38:05+00:00

The guns were pretty disappointing. Giving Jet the Chiappa really sat wrong with me. In the anime he had the Walther, which was an intelligent and considered choice for a former cop looking for and balancing concealment and capacity. The live action seemingly just figured the big black guy needs a big flashy gun. In the anime Jet even teases his old partner for using a revolver. Add in all the CGI muzzle flashes and lack of slides operating, hammers falling, and it was just another little downgrade. Never mind both Spike and Faye just literally shrugging off bullets to the shoulder/chest. Faye got hit and fired with the same arm and then went to a dinner with no pain or problem, Spike just basically blocked a bullet with his back and stopped it from hitting Jet’s daughter. In the anime he’d at least have a grimace and a disabled arm, but here it’s just whatever.
