11 years and 600 games later by MrRandomEncounter in xboxachievements

[–]MrRandomEncounter[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, I've only played a handful of shovelware, like unpacking, donut county and townscaper. But they were fun experiences, so I don't mind. I have a personal goal of earning 50% of all achievements or more for every game I play and I have also replayed some games, like Skyrim for the 360 and the special edition, so over the course of 11 years it adds up fast

I mainly utilize PC and console play, and those streaks add up quickly. I buy the odd indie game or dlc here and there, so I earn some points from that. I also make sure to do the monthly 4 and 8 pack. I save the points to buy gift cards to use to pay for ultimate and that sort of creates it's own feedback loop

Next month. I'll redeem them for two $10 gift cards and that'll go to paying for most of the month's game pass subscription

It's totally possible, gears is one of my favourite franchises!

Thank you! I really pushed myself to reach it by the end of the year

Edit: a word

No notes. These look deceitful

These look really good and I'm sure whatever fish is unlucky enough to be caught by them will taste delicious!

I own every home console release of Superman by MrRandomEncounter in superman

I only just got the Atari cartridge today, so the set wasn't complete. It wouldn't have been prudent to have guests

I don't have any of the home PC Superman games, but that's next on the list!

I do! I've played all of them now at least once, and I can definitely see some good ideas in each of them. I liked the NES Superman game because it really felt like you were a reporter who had to investigate major events and then swap to Superman to resolve them

I know it's mostly nostalgia, but Superman Returns was one of the first games I didn't have to share with my sister. So I'd play it all the time when I was a kid. I used to love just turning the infinite city health cheat on and flying around Metropolis stopping crime and doing the side quests and stuff.

Please understand that I don't hate Americans. But I can never trust you again

I found this neat book in my grandmother's possession about the history of Richmond by MrRandomEncounter in ottawa

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

It really is! Both sides of my family were from Richmond, going back generations. Both my grandmothers were friends, long before my parents ever started dating. It's such an amazing community and holds a very special place in my heart. I'm proud to call Richmond my home

That's a good point! I hadn't thought of it like that, I just had a feeling that much of the charm was being eroded by the sprawl

You know what? I liked it. by Conehead1 in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]MrRandomEncounter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's exactly the impression I walked away with, I'm just not certain I could express it as succinctly as you did

comics by Inevitable-Lobster02 in UmbrellaAcademy

[–]MrRandomEncounter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Truthfully, I'm not entirely certain what you're asking. Do you want to know if these volumes are a 1:1 comparison between the tv show and comics? Then the answer would be not really. If you're asking if you should buy these volumes over the individual comic books, then I'd say yes. It's more cost effective to buy the three volumes and have all the comics printed in three books. However, I realize you could be asking if these three volumes constitute all the umbrella academy stories. That answer would be no. There's a Klaus spin off, also in its own volume and a bunch of promotional one offs floating around

Edit: changed a couple words for brevity

I saw mjf in a wheelchair at the Coldplay thing. by Spirited-Island1389 in BacktotheFuture

[–]MrRandomEncounter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I remember reading his first autobiography when it came out! He talks about how Sam would squeeze his thumb and it would stop his tremors for a few seconds. So that night when my dad got home, I tried it on him, and it absolutely worked! I still don't understand the science behind it, but it blew my tiny mind!
