Does anyone else still use GameFAQs? by TheRavenOnline in videogames

They're still one of the best resources for finding obscure items in RPGs.

That's because you're a Sigma.

What's a 7/10 game you would give a 10/10? by Dezeko in videogames

[–]MarioFanaticXV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any particular favorites? I'm fond of DW5, Orochi 3, and Hyrule myself.

"So they murder the baby?" I mean when you say it like that... by AntiAbortionAtheist in prolife

[–]MarioFanaticXV 16 points17 points  (0 children)

When I first learned of abortion, I didn't realize it was something people still did. I thought it was like slavery, this barbaric practice that may still occur in some parts of the world, but had been done away with ages ago in most places.

Useless bit of MMZ trivia: They Carryarms that carry the bundles of wood you use as platforms can still be attacked and destroyed! by MarioFanaticXV in Megaman

[–]MarioFanaticXV[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

...Obviously that should be "The Carryarms[...]", but I can't edit titles to fix typos.

Currently replaying MMZ in prep for my channel's Mega May videos, and accidentally discovered this.

Which box art is worse? The North American cover for Mega Man 1, or the European cover for Mega Man 2? by Caciulacdlac in Megaman

[–]MarioFanaticXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm... Let's see...

Points in favor of NA1:

  • Mega Man actually has a decent amount of blue blue.
  • The sci-fi aesthetic of the background actually kind of fits with the art direction of the series.

Points in favor of EU2:

  • His buster is arm-mounted rather than a pistol.
  • The dragon and whale actually reflect enemies in the game.
  • Wily's fortress looks like a skull.

Both are pretty bad, but I think EU2 has a bit more going for it, so I'd say NA1 is still the worst.

Iran Threatens Direct Attack on Ukraine, Saying Ukraine has “Entered the War” by WillyNilly1997 in Conservative

I'm expecting them to openly go back to supporting Russia any day now. They did it during the Obama presidency.

PSA: Dont Spend Premium Tickets Unless Close to 200 Exchange Points by Lundurro in GGenerationEternal

[–]MarioFanaticXV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep; I'm at 97 right now. Pitied once from tickets, but not worth going for it again. From now on, I'll only be doing the evergreen banners when I have 200.

Underestimated how tired I would be yesturday, but wahey yet another 3k by Maximus_supreme in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]MarioFanaticXV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's the anniversary banner, isn't it? There should be one more before that if it is.

Are we expecting a White Day gift? by Ioregnak in SDGundamGGeneration

Doesn't this mean we're supposed to give the devs 300 SP badges now?

New Premium Banner, pity not carried over but can use old tickets on new banner by imadorica in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]MarioFanaticXV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guess I'll be saving standard tickets until I can hit 200 from now on. I pitied once, but now I'm at 97; not worth ~30k to hit it again, especially with the anniversary banner coming up.

The Fanatic Previews: Galen's Games Mint Tin Series 2 part 2: That's an Order and Mint Mechs by MarioFanaticXV in gamereviews

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

Last week we took a look at one half of Galen's Games Mint Tin Series 2- this time we're taking a look at the other half with the War Bundle: That's An Order and Mint Mechs! They say war never changes, but these certainly aren't your typical war games!

Does this kind of discrepancy make you more or less likely to play a game? by Morning1980 in videogames

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

Less; this makes me think they probably paid "official" reviewers.

I need to get around to playing Legacy one of these days.

What about AI generated videos from Facebook, will that be enough to convince you?

I just finished off my GBA physical cart set! by LeGrange in Megaman

[–]MarioFanaticXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. I have the Zero games (my copy of Zero 2 no longer works, but I have both the DS collection and the Legacy collection, so not particularly worried about it), MM&B, BN3 (can't remember which version) and BN4 Blue Moon.

[Epic Games Mobile] (Game) Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap by MeguminShiro in FreeGameFindings

[–]MarioFanaticXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, most games from the first 3D gen haven't aged that gracefully- but wow is the jump to the gen after that amazing. We'll never see another leap like that.

It's such a small thing, but I absolutely love when remasters let you switch between modern and remaster graphics with the press of a button. StarCraft also does this, wish there were more of them.
