    Hades (Supergiant Games)

    I made it to Theseus and the Minotaur tonight. Almost got them, but I died right at the end. Using dash correctly is critical in this game, and the more I use boons to upgrade dash, the better my runs have become. I still think I like the fists the most, especially after using the titan blood to...

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    I enjoyed the first Matrix. The story was interesting, and the special effects were pretty cool for the time, and the action sequences were great. I absolutely hated both sequels, though. Have only watched them once, and would never watch them again.

    Hades (Supergiant Games)

    Just bought this the other day on my Switch. Probably my favorite video game of the year. I can't stop playing it. I just got the gauntlets, though I think so far I like the spear the most. I got the furthest with the spear, but I also got a lot of awesome boons and rarities with it that made me...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    But it's probably the only card that can do 8K gaming. So might be your only option if you want to game in 8K. Personally, I could care less. I just bought a C9 OLED TV last year. I'm not buying a new 8K television or monitor anytime in the near future.

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    The only reason you would need the 3090 is if you're gaming in 8K. I think the card was pretty much built for that in mind (or you're doing pro 3D rendering).

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I could be wrong, but doesn't MS Flight Simulator recommend 16G VRAM? If I'm going to get a new card, I want it to be sort of future proof, for at least 3 to 4 years. I could see a lot of 4K games requiring at least 16G, so I'm okay if the new 3080 is in that sweet spot between the current...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I was going to get the 3080 FE, but then I read that there is going to be a 3080 with 20 gigs of VRAM that's going to release right after AMD releases their cards some time in October. So, if I can get a 3080 with twice the RAM and only have to wait another month or so, it's kinda a no brainer.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    Pan's Labyrinth is in my top 5 movies of all time. I wish more people would watch it. Yes, it's in Spanish. No, it's not a kid's movie (seriously, watch it). The Captain in that movie may be the most evil character in cinema history. Even Dr. Lecter had some redeeming qualities.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    You're welcome! Although Hell or High Water is the movie, Hell or High Watermelon is a beer by 21st Amendment. Not a bad beer (wish they hadn't changed the recipe), but not as good as the film.

    If I were you, the first thing I'd do is stop paying the person who shows up at your house every morning and pisses in your Cheerios. That should free up some money to make some home renovations.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    Wow, I didn't think there was someone this stupid on the entire planet. I've literally never seen anyone who said they disliked Aliens, which is one of the greatest sci-fi movies of all time, and at the same time liking Alien 3, which was one of the worst sequels ever made. Let me guess...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I really want the 3090 as well, even though I know it's overkill, and not needed to run any current game. I just feel that if I buy the 3080, I'm going to resent my purchase and wish I had spent the extra cash on the better card.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    Underrated: Hell or High Water. One of my all time favorite movies, and somehow the studio that produced it thought it was bad, and didn't put any money into advertisements, so it was released without most people even knowing it was in theaters. Shows you how stupid movie execs really are.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    Holy shit, I wouldn't even say it was "okay." I thought it was fucking awful, and didn't see what all of the hype was about. They were following them the entire time, so at the end Harrison Ford shows up at his daughter's doorstep? Also, what was the point of Leto's character in the movie? He...

    I agree about Logan. I thought it was better than most superhero movies, but not anything special.

    Most underrated and overrated movies ever

    That may be the dumbest thing ever posted on this site. Full Metal Jacket is overrated? Stanley Kubrick at his fucking best. And how is Requiem for a Dream overrated? Jennifer Connelly with a double sided dildo getting it on with another girl is overrated?

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    Context? One company is moving forward (AMD) while the other company is going down the tubes (Intel). Stop choking on Intel's dick. Intel's shares hit $62 just before their announcement that their 7nm chips would be delayed until at the earliest late 2021. Now their shares are at $46 a share and...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    That scrappy underdog company has their stock at $76/share, while Intel has tumbled to $46/share, and also has a class action lawsuit against them for misleading shareholders about their delay in their 7nm chips, which by the way, they aren't even going to be making themselves. And by the time...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    While Intel definitely dropped the ball on CPU's, allowing AMD to catch up and even surpass them, I don't see the same thing happening with GPU's. AMD just isn't nearly as big of a company as Nvidia. Their R&D is a fraction of what Nvidia's is. But, since I have stock in both companies, I...

    Why does anyone even use the joy-con controllers? I have 2 pro controllers, and never even use the joy-cons unless I'm using the Switch undocked (which is rarely).

    If anyone is interested, Originpc.com has the 3080 and 3090 available for preorders right now. They don't specifically call it 3080 and 3090, but you can get a PC build with the cards at the prices that Nvidia is saying on their site for both the 3080 ($685) and 3090 ($1,577). They just call...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I really want the 3090, even though I know there's no reason to own it. The 3080 (hell, the 3070) would be more than sufficient to run any current games (or even future games for the next 2 or 3 years), but damn if I don't want that kind of power.

    Best Sports Game of All Time

    I mentioned that game! Still one of my favorites. I logged a lot of hours in Tiger Woods Golf as well. And since we're doing a loose interpretation of the word "sport," I'd have to say Mario Kart is by far #1.

    Best Sports Game of All Time

    I would definitely put NHL '94 in the top 3. Another sports game that I loved was Baseball Simulator 1.000 for the Nintendo. That game is like 30 years old and still gives you more options than most games do right now.

    Crusader Kings 3

    Yeah, I'm going to have to do the tutorial a second time. I forget half of the shit the tutorial taught me. I was hoping the tutorial would be more of like a hand that guided you through the game and showed you what to do, but it's more like a really shitty instruction manual.

    Crusader Kings 3

    I played the tutorial. It definitely helps if you have never played CK1 or CK2 (I'm assuming). There is so much shit to click on, if you've never played the game before, you easily get lost and have no idea what to do. I didn't even know how to move my army before doing to tutorial, or about 75...

    Crusader Kings 3

    Just started playing this game. Having never played any of the other games in the series, I have no fucking idea what I'm doing. I picked random for starting realm, king, got some off shoot tiny country in what is modern day Sicily, and managed to fuck myself six ways from Sunday. Allied with a...

    Risk of Rain 2

    I switched the difficulty in this game from the default to easy (or easier, at least). I can get a lot further in the game now, and have unlocked more legendary loot. Game is still hard as shit, and seems like it is just more geared towards multiplayer. I just can't seem to do the damage output...

    Dual Universe - Sci-Fi MMORPG

    I don't even think Star Citizen is promising everything this game is. Build entire cities, form alliances, claim planets as your territory, create new races and societies? I doubt this game can pull off everything that they're claiming, but, like I said, if they can, I'd be willing to play it.

    Risk of Rain 2

    I think I need to play this game multiplayer. I've only gotten to the HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! difficulty once, and made it through to the second round (repeat the first board again). I had a bunch of great loot that run that made it pretty easy, but since then, I keep getting stomped out around level 4...

    Someone play the beta and report back. No way this game can do everything they're promising. If it can, I'd be interested.

    Risk of Rain 2

    Okay, I figured out my issue with the active equipment. Somehow, when I was messing around with the controls, I undid the X button designation, which is why I couldn't activate the damn items. On a separate topic, I'm having trouble finding the legendary loot in the game. So far, I've only...

    Risk of Rain 2

    I thought so, but sometimes it doesn't assign the item to that button, and it really pisses me off. No idea if it's a bug or not, but sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. I really should just rebuy this for my PC, but I don't feel like buying the same game twice. My fault for not...

    Risk of Rain 2

    Okay, I'm having a blast playing this game, but it definitely wasn't made for consoles. The controls are pretty bad, even with the aim setting the whole way up. And if anyone playing this game for the love of fucking god can tell me how to use the orange items on my Switch I'll forever be in...
