    I'm fine with the Order being RE 1886 if it plays well. I'm really into The Evil Within. Sure it looks like it contains many genre tropes but I don't care I like survival horror games.

    The new Arkham game looks amazing. I wonder though does Rocksteady just keep making these games? After this I think I'd like to see them try something else.

    Yeah, I don't get the souring on The Order. This is what it looked to be setting up from day one. Anochronistic weaponry and werewolves. It doesn't hurt that it's possibly the best looking console game to they've shown so far, either.

     

    Rainbow 6: Siege looks like it will be a blast online. Really dependent on with whom you play, though, so getting DVDVR crews going on both PS4 and Xbone will be a good idea.

     

     

    I wish I could remember the hands on review I read a couple of months ago that stated the issues with the game they noticed.

     

    Very little of it had to do with them changing the style of the play or expectations of it being a more true to form shooter vs. an RE style game.

     

    EDIT: I think this was it...

    Terminator 3 was actually better than Avatar. I mean, you tell me which one you're going to sit through late at night after you dig some cold pizza out of the fridge. It ain't pretty but generic plot Avatar.

     

    Most likely neither.  Only time I watch Terminator 3 is if I go crazy and decide I need to watch the entire franchise.

     

    Avatar was definitely better, but christ it's long.

     

     

    Once I got past the eye candy, I found Avatar to be atrocious. I would choose T-3 any day of the week if those were my only two choices.

  3. Teaching Mrs. Tingle - Saw the name Katie Holmes somewhere and thought "Hey, what movies does she have on Netflix" and this one came up.  Decided to watch it for some reason.  20 minutes in, I was in awe of its suckiness, complete with the entire gamut of Katie Holmes mannerisms that can be really annoying.  Anyway, didn't bother finishing it.  No rating...but this movie sucks.

     

    That very much fell in the category of '90s/early 00s teen movie. Barring a few exceptions, the late '90s/early 2000s was not a great decade.

  4. And next we get a long gameplay trailer for...The Order: 1886.  Hey look, it's Next of Us with Civil War-looking dudes and higher resolution.  Am sure that's a crowd pleasure but not so much for me.

     

    I was really pumped for The Order last year, but it has been delayed so many times, and all of the "hands on" previews have made the project sound like a disaster.

     

    It could be a fun game to experiment with as a PS+ game some day I guess.

  5.  

     

    My wife has one and loves it.

     

    That is my biggest hangup with it is the fact that it is plastic and it is obviously more geared towards women.

     

    I guess I need to get past that misogynist aspect of things.

     

    Wouldn't an inexpensive case largely solve that problem?

     

     

     

    Yeah, I quit using the case after I broke the front of my screen. It sucks because I had the phone for almost two years before I broke it.

     

    Heck, even in its current condition, I could throw it on ebay and still get $100 for it after getting another phone.

  6. I think Keith David played the Arbiter in Halo 2 and Halo 3, so I guess the Aribter comes back for Halo 5.

     

    Dammit, this Halo announcement is making it hard for me not to drop $400 on a console that I can't afford.

  7. Does anyone have an iPhone 5c? My 4S is a good bit shattered, and I am too broke to go for a 32 GB 5s at the moment, but the $100 off would make the 5c $99.99. I am thinking about getting one, using it for a few months, and then selling it whenever the iPhone 6 comes out later this fall. I just need something to hold me over until that point.

  8. I have watched most of the big stuff from this decade, but I quit making lists for wrestling ages ago, so I am not sure what I would rank where.

     

    I agree that the Shawn/Taker XXVI match is better than their XXV match.

     

    Bryan and Cesaro is a great match, but can we honestly list it as an individual match? It is part of a gauntlet series and one of the more compelling hours of RAW all of last year.

  9. I could not afford to pull off Roo this year. I know. I am super depressed about this subject. It has strengthened my resolve to pull it off next year with maybe even a VIP upgrade (actual toilets, you say?).

     

    I hope everyone going has a fantastic time. Happy Bonnaroo! I wish I was high fiving people on the way to the arch.

     

    Also, I may try to pull off Music Midtown this year. Not the same experience, but it is an inexpensive festival.

  10. I guess I did not feel the love for last night's episode that many others here did. With how everything is playing out in King's Landing and Essos, a whole episode on the wall just felt weirdly placed to me. It feels like we go a couple of hours on this series without visiting Castle Black, and then it's like "oh yeah, we should probably return there." I understand Martin's books are even worse about this (I've only read the first quarter of GOT). 

     

    Obviously, there were some cool moments here, and the battle itself felt like the Helm's Deep scene from Two Towers without some of the comedy.

  11. If you don't know the differences you shouldn't buy Ultra.

     

    I have Arcade, so the upgrade to Ultra is miniscule. I was just curious of the consensus. I am very much a casual street fighter player.

     

    I want to get a pad to hopefully make playing a little more smoother, but I just can't justify $100+ for one now.

  12. Just because folks brought up both titles

    Square Enix says it won't be revealing anything about Final Fantasy XV or Kingdom Hearts 3

     

    So take that for whatever it is worth

     

    I figured that the Secret Reveal would not be FFXV since they technically announced it last year.

  13. I might play it a little more this weekend, but the learning curve on EA UFC seems like it's going to be somewhat steep.

     

    Also, I dislike that it decided to push more towards an Arcade Style fighter than a technical, realistic day in the octagon.

     

    I wonder if there are sliders that will allow you to slow everything down to get a more realistic fight.
