This is something politicians need to learn how to do. Underpromise, overdeliver. It's the one surefire way to not piss anyone off.

If they're gonna do an AC in the Middle-East, I'd like to see them remake AC1. All the other early ACs (PS3-gen) have gotten remasters besides that one, and the lack of an AC1 remaster makes me wonder if they're planning something bigger, sorta like what happened with Demon's Souls. A full-on...

Found some of 'em, woo hoo!

They should have cast Nathan Filion to play Drake and I'm shocked that they didn't. 10 years ago everyone was clamoring for that casting if this movie ever got made. Gotta say, $10 for a movie ticket and a ton of trophies is pretty tempting. I got like 60% in UC1 and 3 and 92% (including the...

True Romance was my favorite movie for a long time. It's still top 10, maybe even cracking the top 5. It's been supplanted by a bunch of horror sci-fi type stuff like The Thing, Body Snatchers '77, Terminator 1+2, and Aliens. Patricia Arquette is so goddamn gorgeous in this movie. In the last...

Morrowind has been backlogged for me since like 2014 when I got into the ES series. I loved the games before it and after it and I really need to play it. Have it on PC already (physical release with the maps and everything), just need the right graphics mod and a computer that isn't a pain in...

I agree, that shit is annoying. I've been annoyed by the term "Metroidvania" for years because to me, games like that are "Metroid-style". It came out well before 'Vania appropriated the style. Now you've got BOTW appropriating the style that Skyrim and Witcher 3 popularized and taking all the...

The couple of remakes I'd like to see are more in the TV series realm, but I suppose they could have movie lead-ins since they did originally. The Dead Zone: Would like to see a TV series or a movie remaking this story. It got both in the past (they were independent of each other and told...

That was always hilarious to me about EQ. Back in the day I played a Necro, and this was like 1999 so everything was KOS. I'd aggro some bard NPC and escape, then a few minutes later I'd be across the zone doing something and I'd see the damn bard NPC in the distance running over the hills in a...

I'll probably go with the Fire dude, Ghost is generally pretty strong. Though Water/Dark is appealing too.

Decided to give this commie fuckfest another try so I snagged it from the library (they ain't getting my money). Looks like I'm way further along than I thought. I would have guessed I was like 10% through the game but I'm more like 35%. Considering how little I played this, I must have been...

Funny story about Arceus, I went to Best Buy to pick it up and they didn't have it. I was like "any other stores have it?" and the clerk (who was right out of Idiocracy) was like "naw everybody sold out" so I asked if I could order it online and she went on the computer and was like "naw you...

I kinda agree here. Two really good things may result from this current stupid brouhaha: One, Rogan is gonna emerge redpilled. He'd be a tremendous ally to the left since he aligns with them ideologically in a lot of ways, but instead they made sure to push him away just because he isn't in line...

I think Rogan is "bending the knee" because he's a legitimately decent person who doesn't want to negatively affect anyone on a major level with his words/actions. If he feels like he hurt somebody, he'll feel bad about it. I'm sure he regrets using a word that hurts a lot of people, even if in...

I got through Pokemon Brilliant Diamond by basically leaning heavily on my OP party with 3 legendaries in it (the game just gives you 3 legendaries near the beginning, seriously). I rolled over the entire game with ease, and watched things while I played to ease the boredom. Then the final boss...

I'm gonna need to move up my Xenoblade 2 and X playthroughs. They've both been on my shortlist for ages, which still means they're competing against like 20 other games every time I pick something new to play. I definitely want to get both of them down before XB3. You're missing out, Chrono...

Taking a break for a few days to put in extra work and make some extra money. I'm hitting Arceus hard on Sunday.

I wouldn't be surprised if it did end up being 7 parts, for the synergy, with later parts on a shorter release schedule so the whole thing is done in 2033 or so. I mean, I doubt this will happen but at the same time I wouldn't be surprised. 3 parts is possible, 4 or 5 is likely. I hope we...

Banning people from researching shit would be an interesting spin on this movie, especially with a Rogan type character stand-in who encourages people to think for themselves / research shit and gets slammed as a "far-right extremist" or whatever. I'd like to see a movie like this where the...

Yarp, this. Ever notice how Youtube's autoplay (which you thankfully can turn off) always, ALWAYS moves you straight to a mainstream source after you finish an independent journo type political video? Finish a Styx or Razorfist video, 100% of the time the next thing it does is move you right to...

Elon Musk is the left's ideal billionaire. Pays 100% of his taxes without trying to hide anything, is open and transparent about his money and everything else, and BUILDS AND POPULARIZES ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY CARS. The only thing he's ever done to them is respond to their attacks on him. The...

The main reason Fox is the most-watched outlet is because it's the only mainstream conservative outlet. The rest of them divide up the left-leaning audience. ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN split that audience five ways. There isn't really anything splitting the conservative audience on TV. The...

This movie is clearly about climate change, not COVID. Jesus. I saw bits and pieces of it because someone I know was watching it* while I was over there hanging out. * - I mean they had it on the TV but nobody was really watching it Can't formulate a legit opinion on it due to the "bits and...

Yeah I don't think the next part will end with Junon, that'd be nuts. Kalm Town -> Midgar Environs (whatever landscape they want between Kalm and the Chocobo Ranch) -> Chocobo Ranch - Zolom Swamp -> Mythril Mine -> Junon Forests -> Fort Condor -> Junon City -> Rufus' Boat -> Costa Del Sol ->...

Nope that was the northern town right before you start heading to the ancient city/glacier. There's a FIGHTER JET nose-down in the excavation site, something I've always wondered about and never seen anyone discussing. Does that mean FF7 is supposed to be in Earth's distant future, or that a...

My only question is...where is Feyd? I'm guessing he'll be in Part 2. Wonder who they can cast who will be able to fill Sting's shoes (and codpiece)

Also beat Rez Infinite. This took me way way longer than the purported 2 hours on HLTB. Surprised I didn't get the "play for 10 hours" trophy. The last level is so obnoxiously difficult compared to the rest of the game, plus it's like as long as all the other levels combined. Took many runs at...

Beat Final Fantasy 1 Pixel Remaster. Wanted to run it before Stranger of Paradise came out, with a super-unorthodox party. Monk/monk/black mage/black mage. It was HARD, particularly in the first half of the game. I'm tempted to do more Pixel Remasters on the phone, but I'm hoping for a console...

That raises an interesting question. Do DLCs ever count as a game, under particular circumstances? Like I wouldn't count short DLCs, but one may want to consider MASSIVE DLCs as a separate game. Whether it's Frozen Wilds from HZD, or Iceborne from MHW, or even Annihilation Line from Terminator...

Just watched this. I like that the male characters weren't constantly upstaged by their female counterparts. Just some of the time. Every time Paul had a chance to look strong, it seemed like there was a woman around to correct him. Like Zendaya appearing behind him and saying she could have...

It's always kind of telling when a game has a low completion rate. I was really surprised when Bloodborne had a high completion rate. Not only that, but the level-to-level dropoff in trophies was barely present. Most people who started the game finished it. Some games have rapid dropoffs in...

BDSP is actually a step back. It's inferior visually and innovation-wise to ASOR. Like there's a huge difference between Gen 3 OG and ASOR, and very little difference between Gen 4 OG and BDSP. Barely qualifies as a remake, more of a remaster if anything. Gonna grab Arceus this week, but I hope...

Finished Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart. That was a lot of fun and made good use of the DualSense haptic rumble (it isn't just a gimmick, it's seriously good when it gets used). Unfortunately the game is also a glitchy mess. It isn't unplayable like COD Modern Warfare is on PS5 (major bummer that...

Watched half of the Epix version Season 2 (it's 8 episodes) and...it's a lot less interesting than Season 1. The aliens are now mostly just weird human invaders instead of the robot-dogs, maybe to save on budget. With the robot dogs mostly-gone, so goes the scare factor. The show really does...

Switched gears to Dynasty Warriors 8 since I've got that and 9 un-played. I like Warriors games a lot. This one is a little unclear on what constitutes "beating" the game though. There's no trophy for finishing any of the story modes, so I'm not sure if beating the game means finishing one of...

I've got a few Monster Hunters on my backlog so I'm trying to get to those. So far they're just irritating me though. I played some of World in the past and it was good. However Tri Ultimate etc are just so user-unfriendly that I can't believe the series even got a following. No lock-on, no map...

Wardlow is gonna be the future. I met him in person a few months ago and told him that and he was humble AF about it. I'd love to see AEW bring in Shane as an anti-AEW character who is trying to buy the company. It'd be comedy gold. I doubt he wants to completely alienate his dad though.

Season 2 of the Epix series (whichever one that is) is out. The one with Gabriel Byrne and the DARPA robo-dogs. I'm watching it now. Spoiler, sort of, but it'll probably just get you more interested: They put a REALLY interesting spin on the aliens in this version. Turns out they're human or...

Mega Man 10 beaten. That was way easier than MM9, and not as good. 2 points, got 6 now

I'd say don't worry about keeping track of your score or how long things take, we can add all that up at the end. I'm keeping my score as I go but I might just let that go and not worry about it till later. Elden Ring's release date is pretty much the unofficial last day of this month's...
