  1. If it was just driving and occasionally doing Starfox 64 all range mode shooting galleries it'd be fine. But you gotta drag that sumbitch inside buildings and use it as an 11000 lb key.
  2. There's this part early on where you have to drag the batmobile onto some rooftops and take it from roof to roof so you can rev up some generator. GARBAGE Doesn't Batman have some flying G.I. Joe bubbles or something else?
  3. Now why the hell couldn't they've just shown that avengers shit at e3? Looks like a regular-ass video game.
  4. I did not know walmart and target were doing brand new switch games for 50 bucks. I went to my local walmart and Ultimate alliance, Fire Emblem, Smash etc were all at 50 bucks. You gotta remember this is the place still selling Codename S.T.E.A.M. for 35 bucks. Fire Emblem was sold out so I ordered off Target. That game ain't gon' be no 21 dollar bargain bin deal outside of a digital sale 15 years from now. Heh, "digital" "sale". Outside of my Metroid Prime 4 preorder that's still locked in that old 10 bucks off price on Amazon I don't know if I'll order from them again for switch games. On the other hand I just pre ordered that Timespinner game off limited run. So I'm already fucking up. I want those damn Contra and Castlevania collections on limited run shits.
  5. On computer the boss was bugged. This is really the only thing I remember from playing both games. BEAT Horizon Zero Dawn. Only took me two years! All the major plot revelations were surmised by me 12 hours before they wanted to blow their load. Lance Reddick is the de facto Magical Negro of the videogame milieu. Didn't like how there wasn't a whole lot of new weapons and upgrades in the last 15 hours. A lot of those skill upgrades seemed pointless. Shoot arrows on a high wire? Why? That super secret hidden armor that you spend the whole game trying to get? Eh, it's some poop that has no mod slots. With mouse and keyboard controls this game would be amazing. There were a billion times where I would be fiddling with that monster hunter d-pad potion shit and died. COME ON. Also has that shit where I'm bowling over giant 30 foot tall sabertooth tigers with my spear but regular ass humans are parrying my every melee attack. Horseshit. Kinda like Dying Light where you just knew to use molotov cocktails so you didn't have to deal with that bullshit. Villains also stunk. Also, that Uncharted shit where it took 90 years to open the door, but bad guys are still rappelling in in front of you. What the hell was that Zero Dawn facility? Garbage. They also just devolved into relying on high powered guns right at the end like Last of Us. This wasn't exactly The Word for World is Forest. Also, all the beards looked like crap. Pubic hair glued on to the upper lip area. Also, extremely long loading times. Two and a half stars. My Yakuza lineage was beating 3 & 4 within a month back in 2010 and loving it. Like, double 30+ hour games. Gotta be unemployed to do that shit. I'd give the edge to 4 for Saejima's move where he grabs the guy by the leg, flips him up in the air and hits 'em in the back of the neck with a lariat upside down. Rubber bullets plotline be damned. Then, I wanted to play 5 for years but they didn't bring it out until 2015 and I already had a PS4 and my PS3 was unplugged for about 2 years. That's the one I really wanted to play. Seriously, GTAV and Last of Us were in '13. Then they did that huge flood of 0 and both Kiwamis. I bought 'em as they came out but I still haven't put more that 5 hours into Zero since then. The only thing I remember is that Mr. Shakedown guy. My awareness of the newfound swell of enthusiasm for the series is high. I'm pledging right now to beat Zero. I'm also in that spot where I'm debating whether I want to shift over to PC for those Kiwami games. Even though I know I'm just setting myself up for more diaphanous release schedule bullshit. I'd really like that DAMN Fist of the North Star game on PC. Judgement also looks great. I'm just glad shit is fully into the downloadable era so it won't become 200 bucks if yer wanting to play it after the fact.
  6. I just remember when I beat it on PC that the Star Destroyer boss was a nightmare. Controls were fucked and the ship would get stuck forever.
  7. New Exhorder song came out and it sucked. SHIT
  8. Witcher 3 was great except for that Imlerith boss.
  9. So mario maker 2 is amazing but it's just like, a given. It ain't just some bullshit wii u port even though that game was 97% great. I'm struggling between this and bloodstained like when Link Between Worlds and Super Mario World 3D came out. I can have a beer on bloodstained but I still think the 3D graphics stink. Whereas I need complete sobriety to enjoy Mario Maker. So, it's somewhere in between pinball and death. Bloodstained graphics do work in an old Dreamcast way. But if I fight another Touhouvania floating human boss I'm gonna shit my balls.
  10. Ye gotta do it in one sitting. Took me 2 hours with dying and fucking around. It ain't gonna break yer balls like Out of This World.
  11. Been watching criterion channel movies. Chimes at Midnight: I still feel like a lot of that Shakespearean dialogue just kinda washes over me and I only catch some of it. Battle sequence was amazing. Rules of the Game: What an amazing film. No old and dopey movie bullshit at all. It's like the greatest Marx Brothers movie ever. 400 Blows: It was OK. The lack of sentimentality sets it apart. About as far away from A Christmas Story as you could get. Weekend: Big noisy pile o' hippy dippy horseshit. What was up with the 10 minute monologues? It was like old shitty Cracked magazine shit. Shit. The American Friend: Great fucking movie! The language mixture, the lighting and Hopper's weird performance. Jigoku: You gotta see this movie! Better than the entire Estus Pirkle oeuvre!
  12. You can respec all your stats and abilities throughout the whole game for cheap. The crafting can get so overpowered that I didn't change my armor or weapons for the final 20 hours of the game. You also get to the point where you just don't loot anything anymore. I never stopped breaking boxes and pots to get free money though. Most powerful thing is the 5 way arrow shotgun burst at point blank with tons of poison and bleeding multipliers. Dudes just die. Don't invest in dispelling. Alchemy is also kinda useless. You aren't gated off from high level locks so lockpicking is also worthless. Detect hidden will find secret doors.
  13. Bloodstained. I'm playing it. It's good.
  14. Doom 2016 was to Metroid Prime what Doom 93 was to Mario 3.
  15. Wookies look like SHIT
  16. Finally got in the mood to pop the Criterion Channel trial. Going to watch Chimes at Midnight first. Probably Kwaidan tomorrow. I wanna watch things I'd never blind buy like all those Jim Jarmusch movies.
  17. He just woke up is why he had the quad-stream.
  18. Remember to get your switch online free 9 months from that twitch prime deal from a few months ago. It's convoluted but doable.
  19. Just became aware of Clark Ashton Smith. Are the Collected Fantasies the go to books? Is there something missing or more complete? I'm fine with kindle books unless there's unavailable stuff like when I wanted that Cordwainer Smith Rediscovery of Man book. I may have already bought the first two volumes after seeing there was a five dollar credit deal on Amazon.
  20. Yeah, this game on a living console is fucking tremendous.
  21. Check out Natural Selection 2.
  22. Speaking of Virgil Van Strikes. Wrestling superstar "Virgil" is doin' stealth camping videos on youtube.
