The DAB radio design is for real ? It's weird, but why not.

Kids today.... the answer is Tennis for two.

I played Super Mario RPG for the first time a few months back on the SNES Mini. I absolutely could not reconcile the love people seem to have for this game with the actual game. The constant terrible attempts at comedy was too much for me (a couple jokes land, but out of 55676557). The lame...

@Quineloe Not exactly on the scale you meant, but there has been an event with a Super Mario World ROM hack relay race and each of the runner (who also are streamers - GrandPOObear and BarbarousKing for sure) played a 16bit version of themselves instead of Mario.

There are several problems with the game. The first is that it was not designed for verbal communication during the debate and voting phase, so if you allow too much time just too much information can be shared and impostors can at times be easily unmasked by a process of elimination (assuming...

Isn't that quote somewhat missleading considering the number of cheap games that are digital only ?

To wash down the disappointment I recommend two zombie comedies I mentioned before. A korean one The Odd Family : Zombie on Sale and a japanese one One Cut of the Dead (endure the first third to discover why it is pure genius). Or, again, Seoul Station, the animated movie set in the same...

Drunk streaming is ok, drunk posting is not.

The strange part with "mobile friendly" web design, is that current smart phone have big high resolution screens, easy and intuitive ways to manipulate image size, so there is really no reason to have these designs where the info / real estate ratio is so horrendous.

Lies very well.

If you want to see some Fall Guys wins, the go to guys as far as I know are Vellhart and OhHeyItsDavid. They probably have 200+ wins. It's not trivial to have an online leaderboard that is not hacked into, but it would be interesting to have one for a game like this. As it stands I think it does...

If T-Pain plays like he sings, you know he is using an aim bot.

Dude.... Joke aside, there are several dfferent takes on the myth of the vampire and I must say I prefer the "wet" vampires, like in Coppola's Dracula, that is greater than life with an unquenchable thirst for food, sex and violence. The hyper-living vampire. The opposite would be the "dry"...

I suspect an online edition will be significantly less successful, considering that in a normal edition, the runners and visitors typically do not stream during the duration of the event. It's a much fiercer competition for viewers this time around. The upside of an online edition though is...

I'll not debate the subtleties that separate the different editions of the game, but people seriously need to stop being delusional and understand why there are exclusivity deals going around. When you produce Assassin's Creed 87658765, Fifa 876876 or Call of Duty 65675, the fine people at...

Checked the list posted by @spronk . I saw 27 of those but there were also many films I never heard about. Of the 27 films I saw the only one I would not have recommended is Stardust, which did not do it for me (but I seem to remember we had some fans of this film on the boards back then -...

Two things about this : - There is a norwegian film of the same year on the same event (centered only on the attack though) called Utoya - 22 July. I have seen neither, but I think the norvegian film is a bit more of an art film ? Anyway it can be an interesting companion piece. - Anders...

The whole idea of commissioning a painting from an artist without seeing any of his paintings is very very absurd. I am pretty sure it is super trivial to find many people on Deviant Art who do high quality Marvel fan arts. Probably only a small minority of those do actual paintings instead of...

@Punko Sadly, raising the average will probably not get rid of the maddening part : the constant little hick-ups. That's really one of the key factor that kept me away from any kind of technically demanding PC games. If it runs poorly, there can be a billion different reasons for it and that's...

To be fair, it's there for devs to use and devs did not try very hard to make a good use of it.

Can you do the cliff notes version of the talk ? I might upgrade my PC in a near future and absolutely do not follow the PC tech trends.

For a laugh, I recommend a trip to wikipedia to read about Andrew Wakefield.

Do you have any idea of what she might like ? If you want to go pure mainstream romantic comedy, my pick would be Love Actually. It has 8 stories in parallel, with different tones and types of characters, so there should be something for everyone. The finale is a stand out because it jumps from...

There are people who make a pretty compelling argument that Showgirls has the same kind of underlying mechanisms as Starship Troopers, but with the point of reference being dance movies rather than war movies.

The two new popular games on Twitch seem to be Fall Guys, which I find pretty dull, and Among Us which is a pure goldmine of drama and comedy. The only problem with Among Us is that it's one of these game that can end frienships, so I doubt streamers will play it for long :D

So.... no one saw these Ninja Turtles films from a few years back ? :D She was also in three movies last year. She was co-lead in Zeroville, a James Franco movie that was shot in 2014 but got only released last year because the initial distributor filed for bankruptcy, she had a secondary part...

My understanding is that the point of the novel was not "missed", but purposefully avoided. That makes it a very unfaithful adaptation, but also a great movie. It's nice that it kinda seems rehabilitated in the US somehow. Two decades ago, when the film was discussed on message boards like this...

OK boomer.

About the lack of price reveal, I am not sure if they are playing a game of chicken with each other or if it's because the price will be higher than expected / hoped. I suspect the main factor is the higher level of uncertainty caused by the pandemic (changes in policies could affect just about...

@popsicledeath You post is too long to reply to it line by line, so i'll just randomly address some things. English is technically my fourth language (out of 5), but, when it comes to command of said languages, it's without a doubt my N°2. N°1 is french and there is no limit to the potential...

I am still half convinced you are trolling, but since you at least put some effort into it I will bite. Tom Hanks not being Tom Cruise is a pretty clear rebuttal of the assertion that "Hollywood used to cast the most beautiful people it could find." For some parts you need an average looking...

This is wrong on both counts. Different types of actors have been used for different types of roles, even in leading roles. James Cagney is not James Stewart, Tom Hanks is not Tom Cruise. I don't even know who the second statement is supposed to be applied to. @Dom if you stretch the field of...

Played through Root Letter on PS4 (also available on almost everything). Note that there is a version of the game called Root Letter : Last Answer that, if I understand it correctly, is the same game but offers the option to replace all the digital backgrounds and drawn characters by photographs...

This debate is so weird. There is a push for diversity, that is welcomed by most for different reasons (suits are like "good optics", marketing people are like "possible market expansion", PR people are like "that might make the game stand out", artists are like "different things to draw"...

@Caliane I have a friend who volunteers at the Swiss Film Archive to try and clean up their database (an endless task considering they own a bit more than 85,000 films). Film duration is always a messy topic because films can have many versions (from market to market, before or after censorship...

@Caliane Cosmos sounds interesting. Is there a kind of director's cut or is the 168 min a typo ? Imdb has it at 2h08 (128 min).

Played through Adr1ft on PS4. It is also available on PC (my understanding is that it has VR support on PC but not on PS4 ? If you care about VR more than me - so more than not at all - I'll let you find out !). It's a first person space suit navigation / survival game... you wake up in a...

For reference, five friends and me made lists of our 20 favorite films of the 2010s and three of us had the film in their top 20 so it ended N°2 overall (N°1 was Lars von Trer's drama Melancholia). I put The Death of Stalin third on my list (behind the hungarian holocaust drama Son of Saul and...

@Kiroy misunderstanding : I read your post as "Why is she complaining, she can just move with her Twitch money" so my reply to it was "She should not have to move, she should get the help she needs from the police."

Why should she have to though ?
