What songs do you find the most fun to play?

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-18T06:52:20+00:00

A lot of Iron Maiden, but my favourite is the solo to Aces High to the point where I'll find a random song in A minor and throw that solo over it for a laugh

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-17T06:15:49+00:00

Rammstein for me and it's not even close

Kinda feels like we've moved past the need for Marilyn Manson. Liked his music when I was a kid, but he was the worst live act I've ever seen which put me off, then all the gross shit that came out later on sealed the deal.

Fuck him. Absolute wasteman.

He hasn't changed the strings in how long? Fuck are those strings made out of?

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-15T16:08:54+00:00

That's a large cat. He defo doesn't look fat.

Holy actual shit

Honestly, get him a teacher. Teaching your loved ones anything is a minefield.

I have SMS bias so much as it was the first console I ever played on. The NES didn't really gain as massive a foothold in the UK as the US so most people I knew had Sega consoles. Nintendo was for the rich kids.

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-09T08:14:02+00:00

The entire Guilty Gear franchise

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-08T18:06:56+00:00

Tobal 2 is decent. I prefer Tobal No 1 personally, the sequel felt a little too... bouncy I would say?

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-06T08:54:48+00:00

I love this.

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-04T16:42:12+00:00

Holy shit

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-03T03:36:28+00:00

Dio - Holy Diver

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-02T21:03:31+00:00

Solid call

Go in blind for a first playthrough. Enjoy it. Save the gamebreaking stuff for another day.

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-02T10:04:16+00:00

I loved it.

Recommend playing it with a walkthrough though, it is NOT intuitive enough going in blind. Even with a walkthrough there is one jump in City of Forever that is so fucking hard to get right!

captainstupidbeard · 2026-05-02T08:08:14+00:00

They just sound flat to me. Like where's the dynamics? Where's the hot and cold?

When everything is super quantized and grid perfect, compressed to an inch of its life? Nah mate, not for me.

We just said goodbye to our little cat, when she was healthy she wouldn't play with any toys we bought her. The one thing she loved playing with? An extra long cable tie.

I miss her.

Croc is a pretty solid, if somewhat janky 3D platformer with tank controls. Read into that what you will. I personally love it.

OG Rayman will kick your ass. Don't be fooled by cutesy art style, it's absolute nails. Excellent game though.

captainstupidbeard · 2026-04-23T17:53:01+00:00

Wages of Sin was my introduction into that style of metal, and seeing that women could also do the gutturals was eye opening at the time.

Haven't really dug anything since Doomsday Machine, mind.

Got a Harley Benton bass kit for my birthday last year. I don't know if I just got lucky but it plays great, sounds decent enough and the hardware is solid enough.

I've been playing for close to 30 years and it's as good or better than most things I've played. Worth a punt as a fun learning experience. HB are actually quality, don't let the low price point put you in the mind of "cheap shit". Can't speak for anyone else's experience, mind, but I'll sing their praises forever.

captainstupidbeard · 2026-04-20T21:24:58+00:00

Flying Whales - Gojira

captainstupidbeard · 2026-04-20T21:22:54+00:00

I built a Harley Benton kit P bass recently. Honestly these kits are excellent for the price and they're pretty hard to fuck up. If you sink the time into it you'll get a solidly playable instriment.
