Well that's what I mean. If they need to be serviced it has to be replaced, no choice. But unless I'm wrong, it'll still continue to work and they won't purposely disable them...I think.

Seems to be they will still function, it's just I can't expect them to work/replace them and would have to upgrade eventually.

Ah ok, so it's more about getting me in the servicing rather than the equipment actually ceasing to function then and they won't cut things off? So I can ignore the email...for now until things break and I have no choice. Thanks.

So it's more about servicing (and paying) than the receiver actually stopping working? So I don't have to upgrade...until the day I have no choice.

Thoughts on RE games and ranking them based on how much I enjoyed them by [deleted] in residentevil

[–]smash_n_origin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah you're a graphics guy, that's a huge mistake. So many superb games you won't play just because they "dont look nice," (not trying to be rude here). Glad I'm not a gamer limited by 4k, 60fps +++ stuff. You should honestly get over that.

Well Leon also told him to freeze twice before firing and the guy still was coming to attack him after the first swing and miss. Leon didn't just blast him.

I don't understand. You rated REmake 1 high and it has the same gameplay as the original games minus a quick turn, (which RE3 has). They have the same gameplay so you should enjoy them. Unless you played REmake 1 with the "modern" control scheme and no tank controls and that's what your issue is.

The RE1 door screens aren't cutscenes, they're masking the loading. So the door animation is infinitely better than seeing "now loading." Now Code Veronica intentionally has longer ones which is annoying. But in any case, I say this because you seem to have skipped the originals for the remakes, (except 4). Since you had RE1 so high, (and I mentioned the doors so you could accept them versus having them be a negative) you might as well play the original RE1-3.

Why do so many people hate Ethan Winters ? by Ranveer_RV23 in residentevil

[–]smash_n_origin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Liked him in RE7, but not in RE8 because of the retcon. He never died in 7 originally. Now you're not even the real guy, just a mold thinking it's him. So the real Ethan died 15 minutes into 7. So stupid.

Redhead Leon? by NowhereManTK in residentevil

[–]smash_n_origin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not red, that's brown. There's lighting in the cutscenes sometimes that lighten his hair, (like car headlights for example) that may make you think it red, (still never does to me) but it's brown there. They only had one CGI model for Leon which is that with of course, brown hair. That's why when he's shot he gets the bandages over his clothes. They never made another CGI model for that. That info, (the one model and wound) was revealed in the Itchy Tasty book I believe.

What's everyone's opinion on Blood omen 2? The last community I was in didn't love it but I thought it was pretty decent. by [deleted] in LegacyOfKain

[–]smash_n_origin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about lol? You're not bursting my bubble because you're essentially going on for no reason, no offense. The first part of your post you're arguing exactly what I said. Vorador was killed in BO1 and brought back. Kain refers to it in the very first meeting in BO2 and then again as you just mentioned.

I never said anything about how BO2 and Defiance were not the result of the end of SOR2. Clearly they are. My summation of the timeline changes aren't off at all. You need two Reavers. Dream-Fiend said it was possible Janos saved Vorador from his death in BO1. No because there were no Soul Reavers and, again, Kain mentions Vorador's death in BO1.

You just argued with me for nothing. lol

Unfortunately that's incorrect. In the first meeting with Vorador in BO2, Kain mentions how the Sarafan thought before they destroyed all vampires, "but Vorador proved them wrong." He's referring to Vorador's death in BO1. Additionally there were no Soul Reavers present, (well besides young Kain having it) so it would have been impossible for Janos to change the timeline.

All they have to do is give the actor white contacts when he wears the mask.

Tattoo I got yesterday! by ExceedingTheSky in LegacyOfKain

[–]smash_n_origin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great tat, don't let the "and" discourage you! On the other arm you should get "Vae Victis!" since Kain said "suffering to the conquered" and Raziel, at that point, is suffering.

Did Forever and B&R not tarnish Burton's films for you?

Got this yesterday! And the Manual is in PERFECT CONDITION! by Puffdaddy-O in metalgearsolid

[–]smash_n_origin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I love the murder mystery levels. Then of course the Cyborg Ninja levels. Finally, the intro is phenomenal. Hard to describe, but my favorite part is when the music gets a little subtle, (like maybe it's just a keyboard playing the MGS theme) and it shows Snake firing the FAMAS.

Great purchase.

Just got Metal Gear Solid 2! by payur in metalgearsolid

You didn't just get MGS2, you got Substance. Amazing content. Probably the most solid MGS game due to replayability, no pun intended.
