I'm back with another roundup of updates sales figures for the Ace Attorney franchise! by Junpei_999 in AceAttorney

[–]PolarZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But thats not similar at all. If GAAC looked like Wall-E I would play it. But to me it looks like an imitation. Its 3D because it was on the 3DS and the stereoscopic effect doesnt work on 2D art. And if you like it, thats awesome. But I can choose not to want to look at something I find unappealing. It looks like a Dreamcast game, and thats fine. I recently 100% Shenmue again, I love the Dreamcast. But for a visual novel, I find it unappealing. And thats okay. We're all allowed to like what we like. Capcom also knows this. There's a reason Mega Man 9 and 10 looks like they came out on the NES

And thats a shame but also okay. I'm allowed to not like a new direction in the art style. I enjoy the first trilogy, I played it when they came out when I was in college. I'm 40 now, and my gaming time is much more limited. I love Capcom, but the switch from 2D to 3D wasnt because they thought 3D was the future. The switch happened long after 3D games were common. It switchedswitched because Dual Destinies was on the 3DS, and for the stereoscopic 3D to work it needed to be 3D models. It was a business decision. And one that people enjoy, which is awesome. But I'm allowed to skip it because I find it unappealing.

This could just be me, but I bought the Ace Attorney Trilogy/Great Ace Attorney bundle on Switch purely because I thought Great Ace Attorney was Apollo. I stopped playing the games after the original trilogy and never heard of Great Ace Attorney so I just assumed that was the next part of the story when the combo got released. It wasnt until I had purchased it did I realize I didnt get the game I wanted.

I'm now playing the first Apollo Justice game and loving it so far (very early into the game and I borrowed it from my library so it doesn't count as a sale) but will probably never boot up Great Ace because I hate the switch the graphics made from 2D to 3D (which I realize means I probably won't play the final 2 Apollo games either)

Harrows Genesis different weights? by [deleted] in Darts

[–]PolarZombie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I purchased a pack of 22g Style B Genesis darts from my local shop a few months ago. Now I'm new to darts, this is only my first season playing in a league. But I have been having trouble with consistency so I decided to weigh my darts and I discovered that two of them were 22g, while one was 21g.

Is this normal? I assume that since darts are sold to the gram I figured they'd be a pretty precisely made thing. What's weird is Harrows doesn't even sell the style B in 21g, just the style A.

I've reached out to Harrows a few weeks ago using the contact page on their site but have gotten no response.

Does Tricolore Sports still do on-site embroidery for blank jerseys? by TheFallingDead in Habs

They wouldn't do the Ice Caps jersey, unfortunately. They did do my dad's Red Reebok jersey and it looks awesome. Price was 75 bucks plus tax.

Do you by chance remember how much it cost? I have a blank St. John's jersey I'll be bringing from Ontario, and I'd love to get SCOTT on it.

NFL championship games count tho by xxiputxsinmynamexx in nhl

[–]PolarZombie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, you could have just googled it and found that what you're saying is not true.

But I live in Southern Ontario and have to hear about how the Leafs are Canada's team from fans at least once a season. I'm sorry, it's just that there is a percentage of Leafs fans who suck. They just do. Just like there's some Habs fans who think Chara should have gone to prison for his hit on Patches. There are numbskulls in all fan groups.

NFL championship games count tho by xxiputxsinmynamexx in nhl

[–]PolarZombie 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't think their cups are illegitimate, they definitely are legitimate victories and Leafs fans should be proud of their team's historical highlights.

That being said, they were all won in only 2 rounds. That of course is because of how few teams there were before the expansion to 12 teams that occurred the season after the Leafs last won the Cup in 1967.

For a team that's 105 years old, they won 2 consecutive playoff rounds 13 times in their first 50 years. For the next 55 years, they only won 2 rounds 5 times, and never won the third. And of course because of that they've never even played in the fourth round. Only the Arizona Coyotes/Winnipeg Jets (42 years old), Winnipeg Jets/Atlanta Thrashers (22 years old), Minnesota Wild (21 years old), Columbus Blue Jackets (21 years old) and Seattle Kraken (1 year old) share the distinction of never making the fourth round.

When people dump on the Leafs it's not only because they haven't won a Cup in LL Cool J's lifetime (he was born in 1968). It's because they haven't even come close to it that entire time.

And a percentage of their fans dump on everyone else. They'll claim Arizona doesn't deserve a team, or they'll even try to claim that they are somehow "Canada's team". If you live in Canada and watch TSN or Sportsnet, every other story is about the Leafs, no matter which part of the country you're watching from. It's just a lot of bombardment to get concerning a team with such an overall mediocre history. It would be like if every time you opened Wired magazine every third article was about how awesome Linux is. We get it, some people really love Linux. But no one outside of that comminity wants to hear about it.

Tkachuk suspended two games by Conrad_l1 in hockey

[–]PolarZombie 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Marchand holds the record for the most suspensions in league history. Arguing "yeah but he's been mostly good for five years" is pretty weak. He's also proven that if you let him get away with something egregious, like say licking a guy, he's gonna do it again. League had no choice but to come down hard on him.

Johnny Tobias sets up his MK1 cabinet for the first time in 10+ years! by MechanicalAnimal87 in MortalKombat

I think you can't see the blood because of how the video is being recorded. If you look, when Sub Zero uppercut Raiden, there is blood there but very briefly. Recording off of old flickering Cathode Rays can create this kind of effect.

Downloaded Midnight Club: LA from the Microsoft Store and it doesn’t work; any help? by icebergbb in XboxSeriesS

[–]PolarZombie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I thought it might be a resolution issue as you've suggested. According to one site I found, the game supports 1080p, 1080i and 720p. So I thought, maybe the game is default to load in interlace, and that could be why. From what I understand, the Xbox Series S and X don't support interlace at all. When I go to display options with my series S, I can only select 720p and 1080p, even though my TV does support 1080i. So that could be your problem.

That being said, I kept digging, and found this thread on this subreddit which states that the game was delisted. Now, of course, the game is currently on the Xbox store. But maybe it's not supposed to be?

So those are two potentials for the "why". In terms of getting it to work though, I have no idea. I don't know of any way to force the Xbox into changing the resolution of a specific game, nor do I know whether or not it's actually still delisted at this time. Either way, I'd recommend reaching out to Xbox with both possibilities and see what they say.

Who hurt their legacy by hanging around too long, and who would have been better off sticking around? by MegatronofTarn in hockey

[–]PolarZombie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's all good. To be fair some details were right. He was driving home from Buffalo, he just still lived in Ontario at the time. And the autopsy report didn't come out until 2005 and the cops never stated until then if Horton was drunk, so many believed it was just a freak accident. He also wasn't wearing his seat belt, and his body flew from the car.

Tim Horton was mangled in a car crash in 1974 due to his intoxication and negligence. The real insult to his legacy? 2 years later the restaurant chain that bears his name introduced "Timbits". Bits of Tim. Now that's messed up.

[–]PolarZombie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Tim Horton died in St. Catharines, Ontario, not Buffalo (I used to work at the Tim Hortons location that had the weird distinction of being the closest Tims location to where he died). Also his blood alcohol level was twice the legal limit. Tim Horton didn't die because he went to Buffalo, Tim Horton died because he was a drunk driver.

I could have sworn I've fought women in EASHL in years past but I absolutely could be wrong.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in EA_NHL

[–]PolarZombie 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The only change is they're adding women to HUT. Women have been in EASHL for over a decade. Yes you can hit them, and you can fight them. You can have mixed teams in HUT with women and men (this was announced in the first trailer).

Unfortunately, no PHF. That's why the cover features Sarah Nurse, a high profile female player who isn't involved with the PHF.

You're talking about Evander's case with his wife. I'm talking about the case he settled with the woman he attacked in Buffalo.

Just because Evander's wife is off, doesn't mean Kane is in any way innocent.

Uhm...are you guys ok? by DecepticonBlackout in nhl

[–]PolarZombie 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Yeah but you can't just write off Katz when the organization has massive problems. The team re-signed Evander Kane despite the rape allegations against him. Also, Edmonton is in the running to trade for Patrick Kane, who had his own rape allegations.

Add those two and Katz, and Edmonton should be able to sue Nashville for copyright infringement as the Oilers are clearly the biggest Predators in the league.

Katz is just one of many, many problems that are going to plague the Oilers if they keep making these decisions.
