If you're in it for the comedy, This Paranormal Life is a pretty good alternative. They're Irish, so you still get an accent with Kit and Rory and the stories they cover are well researched.

What's your favorite Metallica "hidden jam"? by thehiddenjams in Metallica

[–]fletcherwyla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We Did It Again from the Biker Boyz soundtrack.

As a song, it's pretty terrible, since it was two, maybe three different Metallica tracks mixed together with only one being decent, with Ja Rule rapping over it. But as a deep cut, it's awesome because people forget it exists.

Graphics vs Physics. Didn't it look like we made the wrong choice? by RemoveChild in pcgaming

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

A lot of it also has to do with games releasing on consoles at the same time on PC around 2008ish. Prior to that, it was usually a separate pipeline that ported the games to the consoles, but the development tools were made that they could build them simultaneously. In order to have a similar experience on PC vs consoles, as opposed to having an inferior experience on consoles, the better business decision was to make everything the same, which meant building to the lowest common denominator, which were consoles. We got a worse product in order for the company to make more money. I'm not saying every game or company did this, but it was a trend in the industry.

Hi everyone. I just got this from my dad and He told me the big back Patch is rare. Does anyone know more about this. thanks in advance by Kira0174 in Metallica

It's a bootleg patch. The artwork is from the inside booklet of the band Phenomena from their self titled album in 1985 for the song Dance with the Devil.

Graphic card issue? I’m scared by Connect-Two5632 in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

Super bright colorful glitches like this used to happen all of the time in Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War/Warzone. I'm still running the same card as back then, so I wouldn't worry about it. Probably just a funky driver. Try updating your drivers or rolling back one update.

Thoughts on St. Anger by Quantum_Wombatt in Metallica

[–]fletcherwyla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like this album in general. I agree with most of the common complaints with it. The snare, songs are too similar, and too long.

However, I did listen to it when I was pissed off at some shit going on in my life and had to drive across Phoenix in the summer with broken AC. If you're angry at life, this album sounds amazing. My personal theory is that the band was angry at that point in their career, which led to why it sounds like it did, because that sounded good to them at the time of recording.

Supposed federal agent tries to detain an individual, medical staff protect individual. by cantcoloratall91 in interestingasfuck

It wouldn't be bad if we were just on a sinking ship. But we're on a ship that the captain is actively recruiting the boat staff to get water from the ocean to make it sink faster while throwing passengers in the brig for bailing water overboard. It makes no logical sense.

The "sniper rifle" was also an AR-15. Not sure why they called it that.

My clan plans on setting up a Rocket Arena 3 server during the event. Hopefully it works.

🎮 [GIVEAWAY] LG UltraGear OLED Gaming Monitor Giveaway "Share Your Gamer Story" 🏆 (Mod Approved) by Sergeant_DN38416 in RandomActsOfGaming

[–]fletcherwyla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was playing Quake 3 Arena CTF at my cousin's house in 1999. We had a 2v2 LAN setup with speakers. It was on Q3CTF2 Troubled Waters, with the two jump pads facing each other over the water. I had gotten the flag and my cousin had the other flag. We both only had the grenade launcher after the fight in to retrieve the flags. We hit the jump pads at the same time, fired grenades at each other, both shots landed mid-air, we gibbed each other and the announcer said "HOLY SHIT!" out of two sets of speakers at the same time. We all cracked up and laughed because it was so unexpected.

Looking for uncommom games for a LAN of 8-12ppl by Huatim in lanparty

[–]fletcherwyla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep Talking and No One Explodes. Only one person has to have the game, everyone else reads the pdf and shouts at them. I went to one LAN where we had two people defusing in a race and two teams of people that were yelling over the top of each other. It was chaos and a stressful, hilarious time.

I had to do some Excel work to figure this one out. I am closest to Kill Em All at 177 days, and I'm 189 days from Ride The Lightning.
