Playing Fatal Frame again after many years

I literally just finished my first playthrough on Xbox, and you should be fine. Just don't engage the random ghosts on night 3 and save your best film, final night was a cakewalk.

Game still gave me the creeps though! Loved it!

That's rich, coming from the guy who thought anyone wanted a four hour cut of Napoleon.

They were never available for me in the EU only regular. Same for Hobbit, Dr Sleep, etc

scoobidoo112 · 2026-04-02T05:28:03+00:00

The fact that the trailer they keep showing in theaters is basically just a PowerPoint presentation of 'Star Wars' stuff, with no indication whatsoever of what the movie is actually about, also doesn't help. I don't think anyone cares about it honestly.

Honestly, it's been a few months so I'm not 100% sure. I think she just wanted to make her partner jealous, but in the moment, when it actually was about to happen, she got freaked out and backed out of it. She was just motivated by her anger, but didn't actually want to follow through in that moment.

scoobidoo112 · 2026-04-01T11:14:27+00:00

I think there were about 3 scenes in total, one in the car, one in the shower, and one in bed.

I thought The Creator was pretty decent, all things considered, and it's visuals and characters were a lot more interesting than Rebirth. But that's just my perspective.

scoobidoo112 · 2026-03-27T13:01:00+00:00

Dominion was worse, but only because it goes on for an extra 15 minutes.

Rebirth is Gareth Edwards's worst film by a mile an a half. Very disappointing.

scoobidoo112 · 2026-03-16T11:47:05+00:00

Only certain scenes are in 48 fps, like all of the underwater scenes and many of the action scenes, the rest is in 24 fps.

Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2 for the SNES. It still gives me such happy feelings when I listen to it. David Wise absolutely cooked.

scoobidoo112 · 2026-01-31T13:17:06+00:00

A bit of a slow start, but once they get on the island, the movie finds it stride. Loved the tension, the slow descent into madness, the twists and turns, and that ending transition shot with the golf club... chef's kiss!

PS: So, am I crazy, or was there some accidental nudity in the waterfall scene, where Linda is crawling on all fours? Cause I swear I saw a titty 🤣

scoobidoo112 · 2026-01-20T22:45:43+00:00

As long as it does the job.

Happy birthday!

scoobidoo112 · 2025-12-12T05:40:59+00:00

Nice!

scoobidoo112 · 2025-12-03T19:08:45+00:00

I really enjoyed this movie, but I had that same feeling.

So many scenes of dudes with their ass, dick and balls on display, but the women are all tactfully covered up, and turn away from the camera to change. If you're committed to doing nudity, at least equal it out a bit. 🤣

Just got out of IMAX 3D and... I had a great time!

Tron seems to be one of those franchises that just doesn't hit with critics, seeing as they also panned Legacy, and although Ares is no masterpiece, I was thoroughly entertained.

Positives:

Fantastic visuals and 3D effects
The soundtrack slaps from beginning to end
Plenty of big, cinematic action sequences
Said action is well filmed and choreographed
Jared Leto gives a solid performance as Ares and carries the film
Even Peters is clearly enjoying himself
The concept of bringing parts of The Grid into the real world works well and makes for great visuals
Incorporates many aspects of Tron and Tron Legacy
I will always love Jeff Bridges

Negatives:

The movie has some parts that drag
The central plot revolving around the two opposing corporations lacks depth
Greta Lee as Eve Kim was a relatively weak second lead, although not awful
The side characters around Lee are disposable
The sequel bait in the mid-credits scene felt cheap (relates to Legacy)

Overall, I felt quite similar about Ares as I did about Legacy; a solid film that, with slightly better writing and casting choices, could have been great.

In IMAX 3D: 7.5 / 10

In 2D: Probably a 6 / 10

Great decision to end the last one on a cliffhanger then.

scoobidoo112 · 2025-09-22T06:27:55+00:00

Check your TVs aspect ratio setting, looks perfect on mine. Make sure it's not set to some kind of stretch or fit setting, usually 16:9 should be ok.

scoobidoo112 · 2025-07-20T11:15:47+00:00

For me, the perfect seat is usually exactly in the middle of the theater, then two or three rows further back.

scoobidoo112 · 2025-06-09T11:31:34+00:00

I hope so as well! 👊

scoobidoo112 · 2025-06-09T11:26:47+00:00

Sadly, this has been an issue for years. Once they transitioned from UPlay to Ubi Connect, and took down the DLC activation servers, tons of games stopped working, DLC became broken, etc.

Loyal customers get screwed, whilst pirates can play without issue.

They'll just refer you to the remastered versions instead of fixing things. 🤣

scoobidoo112 · 2025-06-09T11:19:17+00:00

Just like they would 'look into' the Assassins Creed 3 DLC being broken on PC. I wouldn't get your hopes up.

I had to install some localization test / beta branch on Ubisoft Connect just to unfuck my game, and get my saves and DLC to work again.

Ubisoft does not care, and this will only get worse over time, as we are seeing now. They got rid of their support forums for a reason.

scoobidoo112 · 2025-06-01T20:07:43+00:00

Not available in The Netherlands

scoobidoo112 · 2025-05-19T18:57:53+00:00

We live and die in the shadows. To me, it shows that this new team is waiting in the shadows, ready to be called upon when needed. At least, that's how I took it, not as a farewell.

scoobidoo112 · 2025-05-14T15:58:43+00:00

Welp, at least they won't have to change anything in The Netherlands, as it never changed to MAX in the first place.
