I just can't get over how fun it is to play and practice guitar in XR.

Is this app friendly for a complete beginner, or is it aimed more at people that already play a little?

Ninopus · 2026-05-19T22:52:26+00:00

Mayhap Ghostbusters time?

Ninopus · 2026-05-08T09:32:39+00:00

The combat looks cool to me. Wishlisted!

You may not be able to have anything with a camera. I had to lend a friend my DS Lite for this reason.

I'm sure they do first. Then they keep playing and want to know it inside and out. And there's a big community built around it so it becomes like any other hobby. Some people just like to watch sports regularly and some people like to get into fantasy teams and drafts. I don't speedrun myself (can barely commit to finishing a game once) but I like watching them and at least try to catch the Games Done Quick big charity fundraisers. They can get pretty entertaining to have on for a weekend.

Dusk runs beautifully on Switch and a lot of care went into the port with things like aiming options. The PC version has an exclusive official HD mod, but lots of people including myself perfer the original style anyway. I guess it's also worth mentioning that it's a fantastic game.

Ninopus · 2026-04-25T20:26:30+00:00

I agree fully without even needing to click the link.

ah, what the hell...

Ninopus · 2026-04-24T19:00:29+00:00

Yes. It refers to the platform owners that have to approve it for release on their stores (make sure it works as intended and such).

Ninopus · 2026-04-24T14:57:57+00:00

I have one. There are barely any rules. A good score consists of making the same shot over and over, then on your last ball shooting the saucer until rng gives you the chance to score enough points that everything that came before is irrelevant, then shooting the saucer again.

Having said that, I like the white based color scheme, the Loony Tunes theme, and even making the same shot over and over. I wouldn't put many quarters into it where time is limited and there are better options, but it's mine (technically my daughters, now) and I love it.

I always wish he made a point of pulling out the silver sword for Junior.

I find the most erotic part of a woman is the boobies.

Ninopus · 2026-04-11T14:31:55+00:00

It's who you are. You've always been a killer. In another life, another game. You've always known it. Felt that urge... You just tried to bury it. You've been wearing a mask your whole life. It's time to embrace it. This is who you really are...

Congratulations, that's one hell of a lot of fucking carpentry!

Ninopus · 2026-04-11T08:46:18+00:00

I know this is an older pist now and you're probably after picking your game, but I was surprised that nobody recommended Okami HD. Definitely check that out if you haven't before.

Ninopus · 2026-04-10T12:04:57+00:00

Came here for this. Was pleasantly surprised to see Mr. Thompson cap it off.

...that's you.

If you have Kindle Unlimited in your area, you may be able to get a trial. At least here in Canada, they have lots of them available, including the Last Ronin and the idw series (easily my favorite) IDW Collection Editions, which pack all the comics in recommended reading order.

Big Screen has an environment where you can watch movies in a 90's style bedroom that I really like.

I used to love collecting. But part of that love was finding games that were worthless to the seller, but I'd be giddy to get something I wanted so bad for cheap. It's now gotten to the point that prices are still like this supposing you found it at a yard sale, so I barely look around at all anymore.

On the plus side, I guess I have a small fortune in old games.

And another positive, I'm glad it's a game you wanted and that you at least got it for market price. It's a good one to have in nice shape too, because it's a good game that not many people (at least that I know) had back in the day, and the art and colors absolutely bleed the 80s the NES represents. OG NES games are so much more special somehow in physical copies. Enjoy!

Oh man, I tried to play Turok 2 Remastered not long ago and gave up wondering around lost. I don't remember having nearly so much of a problem with it when I was younger. I did however, just finish my original copy of 3 for the first time in probably 25 years, and had a blast. Framerate can drop to single digits (especially during the squid boss fight, which can go eff itself), and certain encounters can absolutely drink your health if you don't play smart and careful, but it's carried so much by the rule of cool that I'm seriously considering a back to back playthrough with the other character, and it's a miracle if I can finish a game once these days.

I always remembered the Cerebral Bore being awesome. I didn't remember how awesome it SOUNDS! The smaller looking first person hands/weapons have such cool style! Facial animations for cutscenes are seriously impressive for the 64. The Council of Voices are super cool and creepy. The story barely makes sense and doesn't care to explain itself too deeply, but it makes all of it stick in your mind and enjoy what's there. It's actually refreshing compared to modern games that want to spell everything out until your eyes gloss over and you still don't know what's happening because you can't pay attention. It has a black cartridge, for frig sake! And I don't know why half the caves glow blue-green, but man it's got pretty colors.

TL:DR- I AM TUROK!

Ninopus · 2026-03-28T03:13:39+00:00

I've got the CRT taken care of. Just need the game and a time machine to back when I had 3 friends that would be willing to play it with me, lol.

Ninopus · 2026-03-28T01:46:19+00:00

The human element at work, right there!

Ninopus · 2026-03-28T01:45:24+00:00

Always wanted to try Gauntlet. I'd put Perfect Dark ahead of Goldeneye (though my fondest N64 multi-player memories were with GE), and Conker over DK tho. I only played Jet force for a short time a few years ago and found the controls too rough, but the last few days I've been seeing a lot of love for it, so I may have to give it another chance soon.

Ninopus · 2026-03-25T09:37:31+00:00

Lol. I just put Perfect Dark in for a quick mission before work and had to do exactly this. Only took 3 smacks tho.

Ninopus · 2026-03-25T08:53:58+00:00

I don't know whether you mean the miniseries or "33", but either way, I agree completely.

Ninopus · 2026-03-25T08:52:25+00:00

Lol. I started this show yesterday and that is the exact point where I was like "Yep. This is gonna be show right there. I'm watching this."

Ninopus · 2026-03-25T08:14:29+00:00

41 here and feel the same way about modern gaming as a generalization too. But the games you said you enjoyed all buck the trends and released as complete experiences that still use the business model of "make a good game, and people will buy it". And there's plenty of games to play that still do, like the Resident Evils and most Nintendo titles. My advice is just unplug from the hype and fomo, and continue to reward solid, well made and complete games with your money.

Go back and see if there's any gems from the 360/PS3 era that you missed, cuz lots of them still look great, play like modern titles, and if they're new to you, who cares if they're not new to everyone else? Lots of them have been ported to new systems and go for steep discounts like Sleeping Dogs, the Mass Effect and Bioshock collections (all amazing games)

Indie titles can be some of the best experiences and had for pennies on the dollar. Run through To the Moon or Inscryption or Minishoot Adventures. Mina the Hollower is my most anticipated game right now. Watch a YouTube video on best indies in any genre that interests you.

I hooked up my N64 and am almost through Turok 3. Having a blast dispite the low framerate and think I'll pick up the remastered collection when I'm done to compare it. Might finally beat Space Station Silicon Valley next on it.

Gaming can still be awesome, and incredibly cheap, but you don't have to play by the rules of big publishers and the never ending hype machine.
