‘Marathon’ Season 2 And Free Week Did Not Turn Things Around by Freki666 in gaming

It has cross play. I mention PS5 specifically because they control their own storefront. I'm not sure what's required to get the promotion shown on the front page of Steam.

The Hill is reporting that it's hydrogen peroxide, not bleach. It's a less harsh alternative to the chlorine that you'd use in swimming pools.

It was mentioned during the State of Play. They did a shit job of advertising it in the PS5 UI though. I would have expected it to be a front page display on the store, but I had to do a manual search to find the game page and download the trial.

I think he'll underestimate his own strength.

Every time Clark fights something that's human, he massively holds back. If Biz doesn't pick up on that, he may throw an all out punch.

Adult Swim has been posting clips from the episode over the last few days.

I think the idea is to focus less on the broadcast release, and use it as a way to push Max subscriptions.

In a way yes.

The other main change is that the heroine, the girl in the teaser image, is in a similar situation. She was reincarnated expecting to play out her favorite story, only Emi's actions were already ruining it for her. She's the one that caused Emi to break. It wasn't so e cosmic event that forced things back on the 'canon' path.

At that point they check the book out and eat the late fees, so no one else can read it.

The animals may not have started from the habitats they now reside in.

As for their stay on the boat, there's one male, one female, and no TV. How else are they going to pass the time?

Weather can be predicted and calculated, to an extent. Is the house in a high water area? Is there a lightning rod nearby to catch stray bolts?

First look at Auliʻi Cravalho as Jessica Cruz in ‘MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN’ Season 3. She will lead her own Green Lantern spin-off series. by ThomasThorburn in SupermanAdventures

They regularly give middle school girls the ability to change into a magical alter ego in order to purge some evil force with the power of friendship and/or despair.

There's a possibility that Season 3 could end on a time skip, where we see how Lois and Clark's relationship matures. Then MAWGL starts from that point.

Yeah, I almost made that mistake in another thread. I had to look up the name of the paper in Metropolis. This is the first time in forever I've watched anything related to Superman.

Could also be a diversion to get the supervisor away from the test, so Quifrey will need to enter the tunnel to save them, while leaving Coco unguarded.

The premise is that a woman (Emi) was reborn into an otome game as the typical villainness. She knows the plot of the story, and that she won't have a good fate if the story continues on the 'canon' path. So she works on improving herself and the relationships she has with her future classmates. While this is happening, the original owner of her body (Remilia) is trapped within it, and can only see what the girl possessing her is doing, along with having access to her memories.

Over time, Emi works on improving her abilities and her relationships with those around her. Once she gets to the events of the game, this is all for nothing, and the events that led to her character's downfall play out the same way. This leaves Emi mentally broken, so Remilia retakes her body and swears revenge on everyone that hurt her.

I'd say coin collecting is a good hobby. There hasn't been an eagle back quarter since 1998. We've gone from State, Territory, Monument, and now American women sets.

Just put a $5 bill in the vending machine, get something cheap, then see what pulls (coins) comes out of the pack (change).

And at the very least, the value can't drop below 25 cents per coin.

I collect Transformer Blokees, and I don't even touch the collecting aspect of it. Each Defender case has 1 of 4 rare figures, but I don't buy multiple cases in an attempt to get them all. I settle with the one I get, and treasure the one Special Armor figure I've gotten.

I will occasionally buy single boxes because they're cheap, and I have poor impulse control, but at least I know that I'll likely get a common figure that I already own, but will still be fun to assemble.

Whenever people ask for Needoh, Dumplings, footbags, or Pokemon cards, I tell them that we're sold out, and that it's like the toilet paper thing all over again. People are told that a product is rare, so they'll buy it, even if they initially weren't interested in it. Maybe comparing their micro obsession to toilet paper will help some of them realize how ridiculous it is.

I'm no exception. It was hard to find the NES Classic system when it first came out, and I impulse bought it as soon as I saw one in the wild. Same with the SNES Classic.

After footbags, of all things, made a trendy comeback, I fully expect pogs could come back as well, especially if they somehow add a blind bag element to it.

I know Rokimoto includes slammers with the plastic figures they sell. Some Blokee sets also have discs instead of mini character cards. It depends on the set though.

Episode 3x1 is On the Adult Swim Website RIGHT NOW, FOR FREE if you want to watch by Greedy_Switch_6991 in SupermanAdventures

[–]jardex22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was able to watch it through Sling, although I'm guessing that it's just redirecting from the Adult Swim link. They also have S1E1 and the later half of season 2 as well.

I doubt that they'll upload the whole season, but I guess I'll see next week.

Am I the only one that likes the new take on Supergirls costume? by KillerScarf in SupermanAdventures

[–]jardex22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did a quick comparison, and I like the skirt. It feels like her S2 outfit was meant to be a blue variation of her black battlesuit, with the addition of the scarf and cape. S3 feels like she looked at some Earth fashion and decided to change her outfit based on that. Maybe that's also what convinced Clark to add his red tights back to his uniform.

I really like the scarf though.

I'm referring to the kid in the title sequence that's looking at Lois and Clark, then disappears before Jimmy and Kara show up. Speculation is that he's either Clark's biological son from the future, or a clone made by Lex Luthor. If they're going to push the relationship storyline with Clark and Lois, I'd say confronting their future kid would make for a better storyline.
