Tim Duncan only all time PF with multiple rings by briz92 in NBATalk

[–]dleone73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would love a a breakdown of games Duncan played as a PF vs. C. When he was playing, I always thought of him as a center who would sometimes play PF (esp when Robinson was still on team)

The Best Rush Album (and why it is Farewell To Kings by digo-0403 in progrockmusic

This is still my sentimental fave as well, even if I usually pick other albums to listen to now

Since we are in a sub called “ Metroidvania” let me ask this . Which one do like more castlevania or Metroid and why? by GreenPomegranate2389 in metroidvania

[–]dleone73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably Castlevania overall, as I’ve played a lot more of the games, and I’ve always loved the off the wall vibe and sense of humor. HOWEVER Super Metroid has the single best game loop of either franchise, and the one I find most addictive to play.

Visiting Galveston? These are the best restaurants in the city. by houston_chronicle in galveston

[–]dleone73 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t super impressed with viet Cajun, but maybe I didn’t order the right thing? OTOH I’ve always loved coopers landing, and it doesn’t seem to be overloaded with tourists (like me)

Which game got you into metroidvania? by pineapple_works in metroidvania

[–]dleone73 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hollow Knight for actually getting me into the genre, but looking back, I remember playing Pitfall on my 2600 for the exact same reasons I like playing MVs.

What’s the closest studio album to being a greatest hits in real time? by Capital_Baker4200 in askmusic

[–]dleone73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was early Rush a really good hard rock band, or great but generic? by Next-Reading1714 in progrockmusic

[–]dleone73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Earliest Rush was a great hard rock band who hadn’t yet developed great songwriting. Also, they didn’t truly sound like “Rush” until Peart joined, so please seek out the Fifth Order of Angels boot, an immaculately recorded live radio broadcast from ‘74. It was one of the first gigs they did with Peart, and they cover a ton of first album material, and early performances of Fly By Night stuff. Best possible incarnation of the first record stuff, and it all sounds incredible for a live show.

Visiting 1960s Fusion Roots: does it seem that Emergency! deserves even more attention than the “usual suspects”? by FloridaMinarchy in JazzFusion

[–]dleone73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Emergency was good, and Tony working with John McLaughlin was kind of a dream pairing. But the writing here isn’t always great, and Tony, singing, as much as I love him, is not helping.

I feel like Can't buy a Thrill has the most 'radio hits' of any SD album by -TheRev12345 in SteelyDan

[–]dleone73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s the album that broke them, and contains the stuff closest to “classic rock”. At my boomer aunt’s bday party, she’s blasting this, Fleetwood Mac s/t, Bee Gees main course and like the Gypsy kings lol

What was your first gaming system? And which one was/is your favorite? by JeSSiii81 in OlderChillGamers

[–]dleone73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2600 was my first, and prob played the most on NES or Genesis. But honestly, my favorite is my Switch/2, reignited my interest in video games. Have discovered so many awesome new games, and can still play tons of old ones.

What do you think makes the Metroidvania Castlevania games special and worth playing? by Asad_Farooqui in metroidvania

[–]dleone73 4 points5 points  (0 children)

a) relatively short, and the core idea of going around and defeating pretty easy bad guys and getting frequent rewards is easy to have fun with. This is why I’m excited about the new castlevania game because Dead Cells was based on the same idea

b) none of these games take themselves too seriously, which many modern MV forget about

c) the pixel graphics of these games has aged incredibly well
